This one minute read may be worth thousands to you.
Enjoy the tip.
September 16th is to a Mexican
what 4th of July is to Americans.
(Central Americans celebrate the 15th)
Mexican Independence Day celebrates
independence from Spanish rule.
Festivities start all over Mexico on
the night of the 15th. At 11 P.M. the
“cry” for independence is made.
Mexicans call it “El Grito” (gree-toh).
Parades and parties continue on the 16th.
Why do I tell you this?
Well, the party starts the 15th, and the 16th
and 17th might find some of your workers
dragging a little.
Try this. On the 15th, ask your workers if
they are going to celebrate and make El Grito.
When you greet your Mexican workers on the
morning of the 16th, say this to them
“pegaste El Grito?” Here’s how to say it.
Peh-gah-steh El gree-toh? Try it. You don’t
have to say it perfectly.
This literally translates “did you hit the cry.”
What it means is “did you shout for independence”.
You’ll blow them away with this. They’ll instantly
know YOU know something nearly every American
doesn’t know.
Here’s what it does for you.
Your Mexican super/workers see how you
respect them and their country. This creates
a deeper bond and trust with your workers.
PLUS, they know they can’t make some other
excuse if they show up late for work.
Better production = better profits.
To Success With Your Mexican Workers,
Emeric
P.S. The 15th is Independence Day for the Central
American countries. Wish them a great day too for
the same respectful reasons and results.
