Walmart is our worst store. They have everything, and prevent having to make trips to different kinds of stores, but, that’s the only allure! The employees aren’t paid enough to care a whole lot. And, if you were in the south? No one hurries. Everyone just takes their time

And train stations often have bathrooms and water fountains that homeless people come to use. If they get refused? They still have to go to the bathroom and don’t get much choice in where. Restrooms are often for customers only so if you can’t afford to buy anything, your bodily functions are left to… well, disfunction

Lol at the “strong america” and “the 1 hour soothing sounds of Amtrak train to help you sleep” Omg, that was too funny. I’ve never been on Amtrak but I’ve used the trains in New York City. It can smell like urine, especially during the summer months. I have quite a few stories, especially with my first visit. Lol. As far as the poop bags. I’ve seen them outside of dog parks. For example, in my neighbourhood, they have them scattered throughout. I believe it’s to encourage people to pickup after their dogs. My previous residence, there was a problem with people not picking up after the dogs. ☹️ So I’m sure you can imagine the unexpected presents people found on their shoes. But it did get better, once the bags were present and trash cans were available. Thanks for the fun/funny video. I haven’t been feeling 100% but this definitely made me feel better!!! I love hearing about the difference perspectives we have when we visit each others country. It gives different perspectives while we learn and a giggle or two! Have a great day!

In Germany, they scan your items and shove them to the side, then you pay for them and the cashier starts to scan the next customer. You now have about a minute to shove your stuff into a bag while also trying not to accidentally take the items of the next customer, since the cashier will just throw them on top of your stuff. If it takes too long, the cashier will sigh in order to make you go faster.

@cattysplat 3 жыл бұрын

Yeah I wish there was a middle ground between the two. I remember that the cashier used to help bag at the same time so you would both finish fast and it would not be awkward.

Regarding slow cashiers, I used to work at Target, and I don't know whether Target still does this, but cashiers at Target were graded on their speed on each transaction. Thankfully, the were really good at training their cashiers to scan and bag stuff efficiently. When I go to Safeway now, I prefer to use a self-checkout lane if I don't have much stuff to buy, but I'll usually at least help out by bagging my own groceries when I go through the regular checkout lanes if there isn't already a dedicated bagger. Regarding pee on the train platforms, honestly, the escalators at the BART station I used to use regularly in San Francisco were regularly "out of order" because of people peeing/pooping on them. Really disgusting, though you'll encounter pee and poop on the sidewalks in San Francisco regularly, anyway. I really don't like going into the city because of it. Regarding dogs on planes, I don't believe you're usually allowed to take dogs on planes, unless they're service animals. Unfortunately, many people lie about this to get their dogs on planes, and I'm unsure as to whether you need to provide any sort of proof to do so. I actually found your video footage of the woman on the plane kind of funny, as she almost looks nervous about being discovered or questioned, but maybe I'm reading too much into it.

@@GneissShorts A lot of people experiencing homelessness don't have very many choices when it comes to where they can do their business. Many (most?) passenger train stations in the US keep their bathrooms inside the gates so that you have to pay to get inside in order to use them. So it's not that they don't care, it's just that they don't have a lot of options. If the alternative is to drop trou in the street where everyone can see, it makes sense to pick some corner of a semi-public space that has at least a modicum of privacy.

Homeless people that actually want to better their situation don’t do that stuff; they at least make an attempt to do it out of the way and in relative privacy. And the drug problem is what makes public bathrooms the double-edged sword in the US; just had a convo with a friend who talked with one of the waitresses at the Denny’s that used to be next to the local drug den (which burned and is now being put back together into a more decent hotel) that every 30 minutes she had to go check the bathrooms to make sure no one OD on heroin in the bathrooms.

I hope you both had a chance to visit other Walmart stores and saw that not everyone is that slow. Ok, so now I share with you, 8 amazing things at a Japanese market in the US! 1. You can get ice in a bag for free! Great for putting on top of you pr meat purchases, especially when you have to drive far from the market. 2. Bonito flakes! The Liquid Smoke (American brand name) of Japan. Ok, it’s not liquid, but it has a smoky flavor,...but there’s a hint of fish too. The first time you try it it’s weird, later you become addicted. You were warned! 3. Too much high fructose corn syrup in drinks. For some reason I thought Japan would be more health conscious, with its focus on offering quality products. I have to read labels on drinks and check sugar content. But there are still many great drink to buy! 4. Roasted tea drinks. I didn’t want to like them, but I like them more now. Am I turning Japanese?! 😊 5. Miso paste is great for making a fast soup base that is so delicious! 6. Cashiers are not slow! 7. Travel cups and bento lunch boxes! They are great for keeping you drinks and food hot/warm. Those magic cups are wonderful and I love the sections in my bento lunch box that separates the soup, main hot dish, and cold dish. 8. Rice, lots of rice! Ok we Americans might think that there is just to much rice, to many brands and what’s the big deal, but trust me that there is a reason for it. Too much to list here, but a big thank you to my Japanese language teacher. She taught me how to cook it, the best brand (so delicious), and what “”New Crop” means. I am now graduating to the huge sack! I don’t eat rice that much, but the small sack is always empty. 😁

Wow thank you for sharing your exciting things in Asian grocery store! Actually, I'm surprised at #1! In Japan, grocery store has free ice for customer to use to keep meat cold. You get a bag and get ice by yourself! But there is a sign that says "Do not put this ice in drinks"! Of course, Japanese don't do it, but it's scary to think what is in the water! Also you like rice very much!! Yes, rice is very delicious, especially new harvested rice! In Japan, you can find bag of rice that says 新米. It taste very good!! I recommend you try Japanese new harvest rice!

Where I live in the midwest is always pretty chill, but then I don't pay attention to news either. Most dogs you see in public are probably service dogs. I would like to give a public announcement that if you see a service dog with their owner, DON'T interact with them. The dog is there for their owner's safety. For example maybe someone is prone to seizures so they have a trained service dog, if you interacted with them and distracted them the dog could miss a sign for a seizure. However, if you see a service dog alone and it approaches you it's probably looking for help for their owner and they want you to follow them.

Your mindset when visiting the United States will make all the difference in terms of evaluating what you experience. For example, when going to Walmart, consider it like a Safari Park where you get close and personal to all sorts of strange and unusual animals in their natural habits. Passenger trains ought to be seen as relics from a by-gone age; distances are so great in America that trains stopped being viable means of transportation eighty years ago. Between the national highway system and cheap air travel, trains are like the human appendix; organs that serve no useful function any more. And as for American fascination for dogs; all I can say is that at least we are not as bad as the British... ;-)

Trains actually still serve a purpose. They're mostly for cargo instead of passengers now. It's much quicker to get massive amounts of items from one point to another across land that way (say if you were to receive shipping crates from a cargo ship and they were to be transported elsewhere instead of unloaded immediately. They use the railway system). For trains that still carry passengers, I like to see it as mobile tourism across states. There's a whole thing for train tours with some lines where you get off at scheduled stops along the route, take pictures, get food etc. meet back up at a specified time and continue on. Like a land cruise.

As a side effect, distant train noises can actually put me to sleep lol We would very occasionally see an extremely short (2-3 cars) Amtrak train roll through, but the rest were all cargo transport. It's an older area that hasn't been updated much, so the tracks mostly run parallel to the main thoroughfare and there are very few under- or overpasses. This meant that if there was a long train going by and you needed to cross the tracks, you had no choice but to wait, sometimes 10 minutes or more. Every once in a while, some idiot would try to beat the train across the tracks and get their shit ruined. The most spectacular one was a truck carrying big panes of plate glass. They cleaned up what they could, but there was a section of track that would sparkle in the sun for years afterward.

The train platforms smell like pee because people pee on them. Amtrack is terrible. I have an uncle who absolutely will not fly on a plane so when my parents went with him and his wife on a vacation from Texas to California they took Amtrack and said it was really slow (like they were always late), extremely expensive, the food ran out, and the toilets were overflowing. Greyhound busses are even worse though, last time I rode one some woman tried to start a fight with the driver and got arrested. Also she was with her kid who must have been 3 or 4 years old, great example to set haha. And then at a stop before that half the bus started shouting down the guy manning the station because Greyhound screwed up scheduling the next leg of the trip and they were acting like it was his fault. In the US you either want to fly or rent a car for travel. Train and bus both suck here. At Walmart I always use the self-checkout machines because the regular lines are so under staffed. They have like 18 registers at my local Walmart but only 2 of them will have a cashier working. But the self-checkouts move quickly. I'm rarely in line more than a couple of minutes even when the place is really busy.
