It's difficult for me to understand how entitled Americans feel. Life cannot be perfect, and on St. John only the resilient survive. You are TOURISTS. You are NOT residents unless you live here. With your entitled philosophy and snobbish opinionated booring profane attitude, you would never make it ...

I get asked for tips on the Red Hook side when coming in from the states & looking like a tourist. Otherwise, never (and no, I do not tip the ferry guys!)
