"I know I shouldn't be miserable and be more understanding but, DANG, does everything has to have a cost? I'm in Haiti voluntarying and now I have to pay for a damn cart."
After waiting for 45 minutes, I final got my luggage. Of course, I had approx 10 men, asking, trying to grab my cart, so that they can push it the few feets outside for a tip. I was able to successfully decline most of their offers. However, there is always has to be oneeeee. This guy took the opportunity to grab my cart when it got stuck on a gravel. He pushed it the last few feets to the car - Nixon; my friend's Yves nephew; Nadine - my new friend from NY and her new husband were there waiting for me.
After forcing his assistance; my rescuer waiting; staring at my face waiting for his hard won tip. I wondered what he would do if I just didn't give him a tip??? I know, I know, I'm just being a bitch.

I do have to agree with you! The tipping can get rather annoying, especially when you have 2-3 men fighting over which one of them is gonna pull your luggage to gain that money in the end!
