Orchids in Punta Cana
Written by Teresita Blanco (The Artsy Sister)
I was out in the desert, where I cannot remember my name. The long and short of it is that Monday is back. As of now, I am still trying many things to earn bling, bling for doing what I like. I am not the type of fellow that thrives in a working environment. The issue is that people expects a little brownnosing and I do not do that. In my career, there is also the matter of unpaid labor. The Journalism chumps in the US expects you to work for free. They also want you to give your work out to their favorite names. If they like your writing, you are supposed to feel special when they put their name on your own work. When I heard that douche from the Miami Herald say that, I was super annoyed. There were hundreds of kids who bought into that nonsense.
Needless to say, everyone from my generation are complete fools. If everyone agree to not work for free, then, and only then we would get somewhere. Still, the world is full of fools. This is enough on that matter. I am not the type of person who enjoys bursting people’s bubbles. The only reason why I a bit more fresh is because I am not expecting much folks to read it. I am just really tired and the like. I just work up and I am in the middle of dealing with some other issues. This one of those long project type of deals. Now, back to the photography. I was waiting to get my room so I was taking random photos. There was a hold up because there was an old man complaining. The guy was a person who bought a timeshare.
They had given him a random room, instead of a good room. He made a mistake, needless to say. Little did he guess that there was a bit of an egalitarian aspect to all the rooms. Everyone got the same type of room, regardless of what you paid. I know this because we went on a tour. They were going to give us a gift basket for listening to their timeshare. They even wanted us to open a money account in Punta Cana. We did neither. It was a complete hassle. All the while, I kept thinking of the poor guy that got ran over. The policing is rather lapse. The officers do not enforce the traffic laws. Since, they were not having any luck, they decided to just remove speed limits and traffic lights. The guy driving us to the airport said it nonchalantly. Can you imagine if they did this in the States? Laws are needed for everyone to live in peace. Moving along, shall we. I got places to be.
