After 10 years, I'll take Chile morons over USA ones.

(Moronic ) Moral of this thread is what even Admin has said all along: (minus corporate/rich NGO sponsorship) START YOUR OWN THING IN CHILE, THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO.

I don’t take any of it back because I feel that anyone who is moving to Chile or thinking about it should realize the good and the bad. You seem to be upset because I pointed out some of the bad, well, what can I say – the truth can hurt.

PenquistaDeCorazon you asked. Why do you not leave then? - Who said I way staying?

You said..

Do you think Chile had an obligation to roll out the red carpet for you the day you stepped off the plane? What exactly do you have to offer that is so in demand that they are willing to not give you a job out of sheer spite? Maybe your paternalistic attitude shines through bright and clear and turns off potential employers.

Did I say that? Please point out the post that quotes me saying that? I referred to the lack of professionalism. Obligation to roll out the red carpet? Are you serious?? If a simple courtesy call or e-mail after a job interview is considered rolling out the red carpet, then I stand by everything I said.

Like I said, I’m not going to bother replying to every little comment you wrote. Frankly, it’s just a waste of my time. Anyone reading this will have an idea of what to expect in Chile if they are moving here for the first time. And that’s what this site is about.

Look I take no issue with your experience. It is a valid one and so are your points. But really, is tghere a need to summarize with basically "Most Chileans are morons?"
that's all I am saying.

Best of luck in whatever you pursue.
