does anyone know average salaries on the island for front desk workers of hotels and boat drivers?

yes

thank you.
Could anyone share the answer to the question?

probably not gonna happen

Sorry for that, my buddy pedro 1 a real nice guy just got out of treatment for some deep problems ..Some one on this board will try to help you!!!!

it's true... sometimes the smart asses are faster to respond than the ones who are really willing to help! just hanging in there...

99% of the jobs mentioned are occupied by Belizean's and the average pay per week is way less than minimum wage in the US.

or sherlack, you could post under your other name and see if you get a better response

is there something afoot here?

law - think you may have a typo there - I believe it's "sheer-lack"

could have a point there nuts!

I got 2 private messages from people who live there. There amounts were similar. Thanks.

Hello Kitty

Meeeeeoww someone is looking for a sticker here

I have to interject here the question asked was " does anyone know......."
well I believe I answered correctly by saying "Yes" and at no stage was a question asked "would you please inform me what are ....."

Peter, as always you are 100% correct. May I take it you weren't one of the PM's?

absolutely

I did not receive your privat message Pedro1, please resend. Thank you.

funny, sherlockdog reads about as well as another poster we all know - Peter responded he was NOT one of the PM senders! :rolleyes:

Does PM stand for pre-menstrual?

Pedro1- Could you please private message me your answer. You said you know the answer so I would like to hear it. Funny thing about "PM." I always write "private message" because I always think of Pre-Menstral when everyone writes it. Looking forward to meeing some of you when we are down with our friends soon.

how could one see past that 'knows'! :p Post Menopausal.

My answer was "Yes" -I very rarely send pms

I very rarely have pms. :rolleyes:

I don't have them anymore!!!

I have never had PMS. Pre Marital Sex is not allowed in my religion.

And looking at it from a legal standpoint, Pedro answered the question correctly.

How about Post Mortem Sex???

HOW ABOUT 'SEX'?

Would that be just Plain Mudane Sex?

HA! Any kind

Hon, that would be just....Please Me Sex!!

Or let me word it THIS way....
just please ME sex......then go away! :p

If you're offering, I don't think E would have a problem with that

HEY! Im outta this!!

Now, Hon, I understand that E is very discriminating

HA!

Hmm. I understand that, in these matters, he doesn't discriminate.

YA'LL LEAVE ME ALONE Pick on Dude :rolleyes:

So I've heard!

I don't believe what I just read! E wants girls to leave him alone?!?!? What's up with that? :p

Im going to get a drink

That should bring klc out of hiding

Aww now E. (she says patting him on back) we still love ya!

Im not here

Is E in trouble yet again??? <sigh>
Looks like klc will have come in and clean up his mess...... :p

Yeah, where is Dude when I need him?

I didnt post that :rolleyes:

It was the evil E that posted that right?

Actually, there are two of us,E1 and E2. E1 has gone to get a drink. Im in charge now!

E2 :rolleyes:

Who let you out? Get back in that closet!!!

E - all I want to know is whether you have discriminating taste or no taste at all! :p

I'll ask my doctor next time I see him

Sorry bud, you got yourself into this mess.....

and all this time I thought it meant Private Majestic Sex!

Hon, I will NOT go back until E1 gets home :rolleyes:

Ah, I see another post hijacked beyond repair.

not necessarily PB - the PMS may be for hire!

Lol PB. It's what we do best!

Well PB, it wasnt much of a post to begin with. I dont know who did it. Probably Law or RMT

yeah, plus the thread wasn't all that great to start with! We've actually imporved things

E - both of you - I'm soooooo disappointed!

Hey PB if you're really concerned you can just go ahead and tell us what your salary is! Then we'll be back on track!

I don't really want to know your salary as long as your wallet is full when you arrive in Feb

Don't believe her PB!! She was behind my inquiry. Honest! :p

DUDE, YOU TRAITOR, you know I would help you out. And, you were the one who said "I aint skeeert of them" :p

The only salary you'll get from me is the type used for bloody mary's. Law, I'll make sure it's full of something. KLC, careful who you hire!

Not skeered at all. But it's much more fun watching the both of you get skewered. Not a traitor at all, bud...Troops will rescue you at the opportune time.

Not to worry PB, I got it all figured out

OK Dude, I trust you.

PS, Dont worry about E2, let em git out the best way he can

okie dokie - you can trust me - I'm from the IRS, I'm here to help you!

We'll let GS take care of E2 :p

NO! NOT GS!!! Even E2 doesnt derserve that

once again, i leave you kids unattended for a few days, and look what happens. don't make me separate you!!! (E - go quietly and take your medication)

PMS to me: Petite Middle-aged Sexgoddesses.

SJ! Please help me Woe is me

getting the cold water out there SJ?

aww E, why not? It might be interesting to watch!

O.k. guys to get back on track for PB's sake,
PMS stands for.....Post-coital Mandated Salary!
Feel better now that we've combined the threads?

wow, cowgirl, you're good!

Huh? Don't make me get out my dictionary!

PB, Once you find out PM me also

Thanks Law! (she says blushing modestly, while bowing!) Guess my Readers Digest Word Power is finally paying off!

Why DC- You CAT!

I would say Meoww, but I think you actually mean
I'm a Curiously Antagonizing Tease! :p

EXACTLY!

Hey! How did I get hitched to this hijack, I was merely pointing out an indiscretion?

curvatious american tourist?

contemplation alternative testimonials?

cute and tenacious?

pb - you know the messenger always gets shot

I think sheer-lack-dawg is asking because he/she currently works in a Starbucks (how else would he/she know/care about the nutritional crap in a cup of Pumpkin-poop latte...or whatever it was)! Maybe he/she wants to open a franchise on the island and needs to know how little he/she can get away with paying employees....Just a thought....

PB.:. sorry for u but u know how easily it is to get suckered into these threads no matter what the discussion!!!

Nova.:. u never know!?!?!?! but funny how u pulled that one up!! everytime i think the pumpkin latte thing has die it comes back up somehow!!! haha!!

Is it just me? I still think sherlock's repeated posts trying to get Pedro to PM her are markedly similar to another frequent poster ..... ?????

Law - so you think it's a her, huh? I couldn't tell...

just curious, why do you want to know this? Are you considering moving here? These are two jobs that would be very hard to get unless you are a citizen. My bf is a boat captain and I have many friends who work as receptionists at hotels. All locals. If you want to move here there are plenty of things you could do. The best thing would be to start a business and create jobs for citizens. Best of luck.

Oh yeah, it's a her and she talks to herself! :rolleyes:

Law I think you are correct about her. P&D perhaps?

Keli, really, how do you end up thinking so much is all about you? My post was a direct response to nova's question.

myako - long time no hear!! different her - think obsessive posts...

No K, Law was talking to me....Asked and answered!

Great minds!

thank you Law, as I stated if I was incorrect I am sorry. Thanks for the clarification. Definataely not all is about me, very little in fact is.

Hi to you too Law. There are so many trolls or crazies here its hard to keep them straight sometimes. I lurk to read the posts so I can humor/annoy the wife with the details. Its good to see most all you are having fun.

Think alike!

kids, i told you if you keep it up i will have to separate you. don't make me do it.

one more and you'll go to bed without a snack!

Keli, why would you ask me a question here and then send me a PM asking me the exact same question? Is it because you didn't get an instant answer and you thought asking twice would make me answer faster? :rolleyes:

Really, Keli, if you don't want me to respond to you, stop asking me questions.

P.S. I didn't respond to your PM because the last time I tried you had put me on your ignore list. I didn't feel like typing this twice, plus you asked me both on the board and in a PM, so I figured you didn't care where I respond.

And just out of curiosity, why do you post under different names?????

oopps, I see it took me too long to type my explanation - don't feel compelled to respond.

always fun here, myako

Oh no Jane, not bed with no snacks!!!!!

Law, I asked you via pm as you can see I removed it from the board. I thought it was most appropriate to ask you privately and not publically.

Sorry for the confusion.

Oh, I get it.
So, does that mean I once again have the option of responding to you via PM?

Trolls, Crazies and Cliques! I just can’t figure out where I belong? (but wouldn’t “Trolls, Crazies and Cliques” be a great name for a rock band?)

Gee, PalapaBob, I thought the whole point of being an anti-social was not needing to belong?????

cool. no need, your responce on the board already was great. Thanks.

Yep good name Bob!

My concern is if Jane sends us all to bed without snacks...Have a thing for late night snacks, I do. Chips, nuts.....that sorta thing!

Ah yes Law, but being an Always-Anti can be awfully lonely! One must pick and choose.

Does anyone know what someone is talking about?

who the hell started this whole thread and what is it about?

Who's someone?

Nova, I donno, Do you?

I plead the 5th.

Wussy!

Maybe someone doesn't know who is talking to them.

PB - you can join my antithesis of anti group anytime!

I'm someone dammit!

"antithesis" I still think that's a great word, very underrated! (not sure who does the ratings?)

The only thang I know for sure.......is who I am, on a good day!

Antithesis - one of my top-ten favorite words - too funny when it comes out of the mouth of my 11 yr old daughter!

does she have any front teeth missing?

reminds me of when my son was 5yrs. old - came home from k'garten one day and was tossing the word obstinate around nonchalantly ( and slighlty mispronounced due to missing front tooth). Teacher was instructing the kids on vowels & consonants. All vowels were to be Mr. or Ms. Something-or-other. I said so how did O become obstinent. He replied - I heard Mom tell Grammy that you were Obstinate and I thought it was nice of her to talk about you that way.

Ive got socks 11 years old, but Ive never had Antihesis. Ill ask my doctor about it. Sounds serious.

nsn-my daughter, my oldest kid, is same age as yours. now you see why i have that"i'll separate" & "no snack" gig down so well.

of course, they know i am a pushover, so they usually stop bickering and tell me they love me and i'm the best mom in the whole world. and, yeah, they end up get their snack

but curious, it didnt work here...

SJ, We aint 11 year olds even though some act like it

im, it's extremely contagious. Go to the emergency room immediately if you have symptoms.

Well, what are the symptoms? Numb brain, numb limbs, or . . . . . .?

PB, what's wrong with your celery? Eat your veggies and you won't want so many snacks.

Yes. And then some.

OK, how's this (back on track for a moment). My celery is the antithesis of the amount needed to be able to retire early and drink a Bloody Mary every morning in SP. “Editor’s note (sorry, the mouse sometimes has a mind of its own ((no comment necessary)), accidentally deleted. This should be up around 8:07pm to avoid confusion.”
Law, thanks for the advice. Should I take it that I need to take those veggies with a Bloody Mary?

OK, PB, I see two issues here:

1. We must teach you how to edit your own posts so that you don't have to delete them and start over out of order where they make no sense.

2. I'm still confused about your celery. If you had more celery you could retire early? How much celery does it take to retire early?

3. As far as I'm concerned, a Bloody Mary IS a vegetable.

oopps - that was three issues!

maybe too many bloody mary's haha... i mean vegetables!!

Just rest assured that there will be enough celery in my wallet to buy drinks on touchdown. And yes, on point three, I belive you are correct.

PB - I do not know of any bars in SP that accept celery as payment - are you going to the less than reputable places? And really, how much celery can you put in a wallet?? :p

Well Law, I've visited most all of them, never had a problem. Just good negotiating skills I guess. I still got the first round after touchdown! (if that’s proper etiquette)
Oh, and Ida, the drinks are only for the weekend!

Well then, I'd say you are well-connected enough for me! Still, just in case, could we make that first round BEFORE you jump out of the plane?

If you wish Law, has to be 24 hours prior. Need to be totally alive for the rush of flying!

This thread started out about salary...now it's about celery.....and yes, I'd love a bloody mary! Actually, use clamato juice and make it a bloody caesar. Thanks!

Nuts, you must watch the TRAILER PARK BOYS....Julian and his ever-present rye and coke?

Clamato juice.:. must be a CDN thing...

caesars w/out it just aren't the same!!!

PB likes bloody caesars NS.

damn, after reading this, i want a bloody mary with celery, salery, salary, oh hell, just hot sauce! yum

Try pickled green beans in 'em. Pretty tasty!
Hmmmmm, wonder if I can sneak off at lunch and grab one??? Think my boss would get PO'd though. Guess I'll have to wait for the 5 o'clock whistle.

horseradish & worchestershire: a "bullshot".

hey pb - if you use V8, you can drink your veggies

pickled (hic) asparagus! it does work!

I just consider it a salad with a very tasty dressing SJ. And we all know they're healthy!

ooohhhh... that's actually really good!!

i still prefer the classic Celery... but something different sometimes is nice to!!

The reason for discovering the asparagus was a practical one...no celery at da pub but for some reason they had a dusty jar of pickled asparagus. Thought why the hell not? Was tasty.

coolbummings - I love the Trailor Park Boys - they film the show 50 miles from here. We met them X-mas before last - went to a private screening of their 1st movie then out for drinks with them afterwards - what a blast. They all stayed in character for the evening.

Asparagus - mr. nuts b-b-q's them and they taste awesome. Marinated in sesame oil, honey, fresh ginger and tons of garlic - gotta try it...then wash 'em down with a bloody caesar or five!

I have a really funny story about a guy and a Bloody Mary... but it shouldn't be told in mixed company. Too bad.

This company is about as mixed as it gets :rolleyes:

Come on Denny, tell!

O.k. I've got MY Bloody Mary and I'm now at home waiting for the story of the century!
Law...don't you mean mixed up? Or messed up?

yeah, that too

Come on Denny, spill!

He's still in the processs of making it up I'm sure NS.

hmmmm I told the story and then came back and it may have been gone, or maybe it wasn't... maybe I never wrote it. Shrug

I read it but I promised not to tell. I can be bought :rolleyes:

I read it DS, probably just as well it disappeared. Rather unbelievable I must say.

Thank you guys...

What are we talking about?

Have anyone of you read www.aliasjones.com today. We should all be concerned.

Yes and concerned.

Yep, and real scared. Hmmmm, land purchase outside of the 50 states is going to skyrocket. And AC is looking pretty good right now. Even if I have to live on a pad on stilts in the middle of the lagoon!

Aliasjones is a good read, thanks for the link.
