/Sounds like "PEEN" (as in "pea") + "chah" (as in "chat")/
A job or work in Cuba, what you do every day to earn a living and put food on the table. It's the everyday Cuban word for employment, said with that mix of resignation and pride.
“I gotta go to work early tomorrow.”
“I got a new job that pays better.”

Ranchero
A person from the countryside with outdated attitudes, or someone not caught up with modern ways. In Mexico, 'ranchero' isn't always an insult, sometimes it's affectionate, but it marks someone as behind the times, whether they're from a ranch or just act like it.
