b. Copied from the Gringo Gazette: “Bad News For Gringa Ladies” The Supreme Court will examine a proposal this week that would make it mandatory for you to pay social security benefits to your domestic worker. Your very reasonably priced housekeeper, gardener, hard working folks like that. The law as it stands has resulted in most domestic workers not receiving benefits that other employees are legally entitled to. The proposal argues that there is no constitutional justification to exclude the mostly female workers from the social security system and that it is sexist. Translation: You will need to figure out the social security system in Spanish, calculating what taxes you should pay on your once a week lady. The average foreigner will need to hire an accountant. If this law passes, and you don’t comply, your housekeeper is going to sue you right out of your flip flops, doesn’t matter how nicely you get along now. She will use the law against you. That is for sure, for sure. We can hear you now, “but we were such good friends”. No, you are not friends, she is an employee, she sees you as her rich boss and she will want her benefits, which are actually quite good: Health, housing, retirement, maternity leave, the whole scary works.
b. Baja Night SkyMorning & evening skies are putting on a show this week. Jupiter, Mercury and Venus ascend the sky in that order in the SE around 6:15 to 6:35am.
