Can't a gringo get some sleep?

I’ve recently had to adjust my sleep schedule to accommodate the guys remodeling their apartment above us. I swear they start hammering away at 5 am. If it’s not them disturbing my beauty rest, it’s the giant cash cleaner that they’re building across the street (Panama is one of the top countries to launder money and is a major drug-transit country – much of the investment in new buildings comes from dirty money http://www.thepanamanews.com/pn/v_12/issue_05/business_01.html ). The workers play this game where they take the biggest piece of scrap metal and throw it down the metal trash chute into the giant metal dumpster 20 stories below. The worker who wakes up the most neighbors wins. It’s the equivalent of nails on 200-ft chalkboard, amplified.
