I do like the island. The people are wonderful and it really is a low cost place to live. Especially given the climate and since the island is so small, you are close to the beach you have no matter where you live.
I haven’t been a spendthrift. I in fact built up a little cushion in my first couple of months here, but then I spent that money on my business trip to India.
Of the money I’m owed more than $5,400 is due me from that one trip. If I’d been reimbursed for those expenses, I might not even be pissed at my boss about this situation. But that is his management style. Never plan ahead. We are in this mess for multiple reasons. Yes the principal reason is that we were grossly under capitalized, but this problem was dramatically compounded by his bad decisions.
