Common Sense

Maybe it's an American thing but we expect a certain level of common sense from all people. You don't get that here. Many workers have never done the jobs that they are doing before, but you would still think that they would learn from day to day. Heck, I would expect them to learn even hour to hour, build upon the skills that they are learning, but that doesn't seem to be the case here. I suppose that I shouldn't over generalize, but I don't think that I am. There are so many things in our villa that are off. Like the place you put dishes to drain after washing them. It should be slanted just a bit and the water should drain back into the sink - right? Maybe the person who installed it had never seen one before so they didn't know. That's just one tiny example of so many things here. Each villa in this complex is different - but not supposed to be ya know.

This is a little thing but it sure helps me to understand why labor in the US is paid so much more. There are much higher expectations levels there than here. I need to the a guy to come install a dishwasher, but I am thinking of just doing it myself. I'd bet ya $50 that I would a better job!
