Cesspool

8/22/2008
Daytona Beach has some gorgeous natural beauty, and the weather is great, but it is basically a cesspool. The work ethic, and therefore the service you get here, is unbelievably poor. The pay here is horrendous and doesn't make up for the lower cost of living. We have been in what we thought were nice restaurants only to hear someone proudly belch as loudly as he could, I've had my car spat on in parking lots, people curse loudly even in higher end places....It's just a nasty place that has seemingly attracted some of the laziest, rudest, and crudest people you'd ever want to run into. I suppose that's what happens when biker and NASCAR events are what drives the so-called economy.
Oh, and good luck finding anything out of the ordinary like decent Indian or other ethnic foods. Daytona Beach isn't real big on minorities, either.
We're getting out while we still can.
