I actually experienced something like this when I was living the country for the first time 3 years ago. The guys asked me to help carry my sole luggage from the front door to the baggage receptionist.

For those of you who have been in Haiti's airport, you know how short is the distance.

When I refused he started assaulting me telling me how cheap I was. The guy litteraly wanted to kill me because I didn'tlet him carry my bag. I am Haitian and this experience bothered me a lot; when you think about foreigners it is definitely worst for them, especially with the Haitian atittude: tout blan chaje lajan.

It is definitely a shame.

No wonder people do not have any respect for us in this entire planet.
