doing business Ja-Stylee

it's my practice,
to bring stuff down
to Jamaica
to get things fixed, repaired, etc
'cause price better than in foreign,
and the workmanship is MUCH much better.

so,
this trip,
i brought one of my watches :::: need battery & new band

so,
day #2, last Friday
i go to the One-Way road-side watch repair man

tell him what i want/need
..give him my watch

'''..Soon come back for it...''' <<<::me-SAY
as
i go off
to run some errands.

couple hours later
i come back
:-(
watch man GONE [[ home ]]

me vexed,
'cause
me KNOW i won't see him or my watch until MONDAY, 'cause 'cause of his religion, he no work pon Sat-day.

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

in Jamaica, it things like this that you always gotta keep in mind, when doing business, shopping, etc. .... some folks open on X-day, some folks not

* sigh *

so it goes
