In response to this:

I haven't been cheated very often:

Twice by cab drivers and once by a seller on mercadolibre (out of over 100 transactions).

Not bad for almost five years in Argentina!

In fact, it's downright admirable.

Ghost asked this:

How about that girl in San Telmo that charged $300 USD for the 2 minute ride ??????????????

Why ask me?

My Argentine girlfriend ( a professional tango dancer at Cafe Tortoni) gave me a lap dance on our second date.

She didn't charge for it and I never learned the tango.

I still wonder who cheated who?

Reminds me of Bogart (quoting Raymond Chandler) from "The Big Sleep"-"she tried to sit in my lap while I was standing up".

Believe me, I quite happily took a seat (and enjoyed the ride).

Of course this was before I discovered that she would become hysterical and violent when I disagreed with her.

Well I guess this thread is about customer service so maybe you're not too off-topic Steve...now I come to think about it, the trouble I've had is always with women not men, esp.in call centres....

Excellent point!

But I usually have great results with Argentine women who provide (non-sexual) customer service.

Perhaps it's just my wit, charm, and boyish good looks.

This thread has been viewed over 1000 times in its first day.

I wouldn't say that's deterioration.

With apologies to MGM, I'd say THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!

It got funny after it got stupid. If only alot of other threads would do the same.

Well, when the burglar with the gun chased me up the stairs a week before I gave birth & held me and my 2.5 yrs son hostage till my husband gave him money, what should I have done? Offered to make him some mate?

I am sorry to hear what you have been through, but your attitude seemed to be quite negative way before that. I am Argentine and am aware that this is not a rose garden, but I don´t recall ever reading anything close to optimistic that you have posted. Seriously, this place seems to be a big source of unhappiness for you, I am sorry you are stranded here. I still think that the neighborhood you live in seriously does not help at all.
