All these last few days squabbles over a brand new hospital that provides convenience to expats and nationals who may not want to travel about 50 minutes away at night or maybe they don't have cars?! It's impossible to get all equipments in one day. It's perfectly fine for anyone to travel to any hospitals as his/her choice. Choices are wonderful. However, this's just my opinion - put your thumbs away and keep some negative thoughts to yourself - Hospital San Antonio deserves a chance.

Do not attack. I'm entitled to my opinion.

In Tiny’s defense, it was not really funny and did not sound like a joke. 

Got it. Then I apologize to Tiny 😊.

Our dog loves the core from a head of lettuce. She thinks it is a bone. She runs around, trying to find a place to hide it. HAHAHA

Hahaha 😀... Maybe your dog has weak teeth if chewing "the core of a head of lettuce" as "a bone" or if you don't give her enough of real bones?

In America, we don't really have a health care system but merely a disease treatment system.

Who knows? The person found your keys maybe is trying to find a way returning them to the owner at the moment ...

That's great! Then you've done all you need to do.

It's unfortunate to lose those keys. 

I would at this point get the Chapala locksmith to change the locks around the house. 

Make a set of spare keys to keep in your safe. They should all be clearly marked/labeled which key is for which door, etc.

Now that we had to toss a well known troll we'll have to rely on dog in restaurant threads to keep the site traffic up. 

 

Yes, life is ruff.

Transportation included? That's so awesome! Thanks you!

What about "Well Women Package" (including maybe mammogram, ultrasound, pap and bone density...)?

I'm now planning for next year's tests so sure can wait.

Had both done 2 years ago NOB equivalent of 13000 pesos ($700). Still part of deductible so that was all out of pocket.

I knew it would cost less but never thought that many times less. I'm very happy to hear that.

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Can anyone please advise the cost of - None 3D Diagnostic Mammogram and Breast Ultrasound - if you had those done recently? Nothing else needed. Thank you!

Vacation pay for part-time workers is required by law. Aguinaldo is NOT!!!

LEY FEDERAL DEL TRABAJO

 

Sonia,

I'm glad you've changed your website information to: aguinaldo is "to be paid to all employees".

A closer encounter to canines can cause severe allergic reactions in a closed setting.

Our dogs won't behave at the smell of the ribs ... they're not trained and uneducated.

Can dogs be tied outside the restaurants courtyards (Lots of places have outside settings) and just humans walk in?

Even though to allow the dogs or not, I think, is at the discretion of the restaurants' owners, everyone should exercise common sense and courtesy in a selfless way - in an ideal world.

We read Rony's writing on Chapala Haciendas when we were looking for a house. How much has it changed since May 2015 when he wrote it?

"The fact that you are asking the question (about wanting to live at the Haciendas) is already answering it...... and it has been asked quite often (which must mean something, no?).

This is not going to help the sale of my chocolate, but ...... if I think of Chapala Haciendas I think of : lose Pittbulls that for the longest time have caused a lot of fear and harm there, I think of criminal activity (over the last 10 years, it is a looong list, but people tend to have a short memory) and easy escape routes (for potential criminals, almost immediately on a good escape route to Guadalajara), the police taking the longest time to get there (you will find posts about that here on the webboard), I think of a lot of bickering among the people who manage the Haciendas...... I have a lot of friends living there and personally, I would not even like to spend the night there.

If your car breaks down,....... public transport is a problem too. If a bus passes by (even the 2nd class one), the driver might not even want to stop.

Granted, lately, it seems that the criminal activity has been less of a problem, but it also appears that our region is entering another episode with a lot of turmoil.

And I do envy the people there for living so close to nature and in a more quiet environment....... but not at any price. Yes, crime happens anywhere, but ... "priorities" is the key word..

To summarize....

Prices are pretty low there (compared to other fraccionamientos) and not without a reason. Check with people, who don't have any personal interest in defending it (or are able to rise above it) and use common sense (referring to the points I mentioned above). This is the personal conclusion from someone, who doesn't have a dog in this fight and has been following up the Haciendas for the last 10 years (through friends living there and the local media). And check with Mexicans. Through my employment project, I have sent a lot of people there and crime is their concern, going there to work (and returning home after 6 pm). And believe me, Mexicans know..... (they might not tell their employer directly)

And to all the people living there, who will be angry with me now....... you can only really improve a situation, if you first admit the shortages and problems. You will be your own worst ennemy by ignoring it..... but, so be it. It is what it is and people will only believe what they want to believe.

Did I answer your question ?

Rony"

Sonia,

I respect you a lot and I know you help many people. Kudos to you on that!

However, I am convinced the law treats Full TIME and PART TIME holdhold workers the SAME on all the following pays: finiquito, vavation and aguinaldo.

This thread from Al Berca, RVGringo, Wookie, Mudgirl and mine on Thursday at 3:50pm were all on finiquito.

The OP asked about finiquito, what about that, please?

That was answered the last few days.

The law did not distinguish full or part time holdhold workers' aguinaldo pay. Therefore, part time workers deserve it.

The OP's part time maid comes regularly and weekly - one hour per week.

Therefore, her aguinaldo is mandatory. ALL employees are entitled to it.

(Only irregular workers are not required to get aguinaldo.)

ALL employees are entitled to vacation pay and termination pay, as well.

 

ALL employees (including part time maids and gardeners) are entitled to aguinaldo, finiquito and vacation pay.

It is maybe a common practice that part time workers are not getting paid of those benefits, but certainly NOT legal practice.

In a case of gray area, it pays to stay in a healthy employer and employee relationship.

I agree with Al Berca, Mudgirl, RVGringo and Wookie, etc. Each has solid points.

It's very kind and generous of you to pay the cleaning lady even though it wasn't in your contract. She derserves to get paid for her work 🙂

2000 pesos sounds right if you've been paying her about 108 pesos/1 hour/per week.

All that included already based on the Mexican Labor Law:
1) 3 months pay
2) 20 days each year worked (At daily rate 15.43)
3) Prorated vacation (less than a year)
4) Christmas bonus (I counted 3 quarters)

(Total would be 1300 if hourly pay was 70 pesos at daily rate 10 pesos.)
