Many fast food restaurants if your over 26yrs old no chance, If your a permanent resident from Nicaragua you too have no opportunity. I think there is more discrimination here in CR than meets the eye. Blacks from Limon as well. How many times I see the help wanted 18-25 Ticas only. This will never change here I mean never. Government jobs are for family of government workers generational a few others get a chance.

And when you get frustrated with the system, you get, ‘muy tranquilo, muy tranquilo’.
This seems to be the way things are handled when the people feel they have no power.

It is like trying to herd rabbits on the road to Grecia.
