There really should not be any such thing as Dominican Time. I call it rude and selfish. Time was made for a reason people! When you say I will be in such-and-such place at such-and-such time, it is your responsibility to be there at that time. I promise, it's really not that hard. I know there's insane traffic, I know you have to get ready and spend endless hours styling your nappy-ass hair, however, it is truly not that difficult to take this into account and leave your house before the time you said you would meet someone! Or at least, call the person in question, to advise them that you are going to be late. Don't wait until said person calls you a half hour after you were supposed to meet up, and tell them "oh, I'm almost there". It is widely known that if someone tells you this, they probably have not even left their home.
It is very frustrating, really, and it's a problem that had brought me to tears on occasion, out of pure frustration.
I refuse to adapt to this, plainly because I believe everyone who partakes in this heinous behavior should realize that they are wrong. And by wrong I mean, wake up!
I'm mostly a lazy bum who does nothing but go to school, but I still value my time. And by subjecting myself to this form of blatant disrespect, everyone else is telling me that they don't give a rat's ass about my time, or theirs for that matter.
I could go on for days about this, and the full extent of my anger still would not be conveyed.
I cannot wait to go back to the US.
