Transplant,
With all due respect, most of us with any island ties know about the different wage and salary structures on both sides of the island, but that's really not the point of this discussion at all. Heck, many here spend near to that amount on their annual trips.....so I can't imagine how the people of the island can live on those annual salaries.
But it's the deception over the tipping/ service/tax/gratuity/etal that literally drives everyone crazy.
A wise lady once stated here on this forum the best thing is assume if there's an add-on, you're covered unless you're absolutely inclined to leave more for whatever your reasoning. I'm good with that. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />
Respectfully,
pat
