    I’m Japanese and very happy if you fill your glass by yourself.
    The tips in the restaurant is just included in the price.
    There’s no such rules or regulations in Japan not to eat on the train. So you can see some of people eating on the transportation and will not get fines.
    On the other hand, it’s true that Japanese people are very polite and willing to help others, especially foreigners. However, I’ve never heard it’s rude to point the place on the map???
    I think why Japanese will bring you to the place instead of explaining how to get there because yes, we are kind and most of us CANNOT SPEAK ENGLISH..😂
    Hey I think you gotta visit Japan again lol

      On my first visit in 2017, the girl I asked for directions walked me to show Yodobashi Shinjuku since it was nearby. Most small restaurants like ramen houses use a machine so, it's necessary to have cash on hand. For larger restaurants like the one I had dinner in Skytree and Maisen Omotesando, I used my credit card.

      Exactly! Like where I live its up to the restaurants whether the employees are allowed to accept tips or not but its something you do if you want. like if you were really pleased by the service.
      I remember reading a post that when you tip someone always give 18 or 20% of your bill and i was so confused until i realized that they were talking about America and how they have to give tips as the employees don't get paid much.

    • @tomb7088
      @tomb7088 3 роки тому +3

      Taxes are not usually paid on tips.
      Also, those higher wages are baked into the price of the meal.
      It also gives you the option of not tipping if the service wasn't where it needs to be or tip more if it is exceptional.

      @@rattlehead999 And that's fine, but that means you get whatever service you get instead of the person trying to earn that tip.
      And it would be a lot more for the meal.
      Think about it this way.
      Wages limit earnings to one rate that isn't going to come close to what it is with tips.
      Slow times and busy times average out. All wages mean the staff is just working harder for no more money when it is busy, and that is how they will look at it.
      And the ones the provide the better service make way more than the wage would be.
      Take that from someone with over 25 years in the restaurant business.
      The current system is better in the long run.
      Pull some time in a tipping position and you will see.

      In the bigger cities there are lots of vegetarian and vegan options for dining. Plus there are lots of options in combini(convenience stores) and other stores that have no meat. Getting away from diary is trickier, but not impossible. Also key phrases to avoid things would be: "Sakana tabinai desu" for I don't eat fish and "niku wa tabanai desu" for I don't eat meat. Also get the Happy Cow app on the phone you use in Japan, it's a database that can show you all the local vegan and vegetarian places, along with places that offer vegetarian and vegan options.

    I was in a Shinkansen first class few years ago and two tourists refused to stop watching movies on their iPad even after the Japanese conductor told them not to do so. At the end, I can see the Japanese people were upset about them. There are two rooms on either end of the Shinkansen train carriage where you go to make a phone call or watch movies. It supposes to be a quiet ride. No, they were not Americans. They were Spanish tourists and they were proud of it (displaying their Spanish flag and screaming).

      Actually, that's not the case.
      It is acceptable to slurp noodles in Japan, but it's not obligatory. It's done for a practical reason, as it facilitates eating the noodles quickly. It's nothing to do with sending your compliments to the chef.
      Also, slurping is not universal in Japan. The only foods that are slurped are those with a hot liquid. Ramen and miso soup are two examples; it is also acceptable to slurp tea. Slurping other foods, such as pasta, however, is considered bad manners.

    in india it is opposite ...showing the legs is a little tricky but most girls wear shorts here as well but the belly region is showed the most often due to our traditional clothing are also kinda revealing the belly and hands

    So useful! I think such video should be recorded for the European countries/West, too. I am afraid too many Westerners do not find it impolite to keep their hands in their pockets, under the table, yawn without covering their mouth or wear a cap inside as men. And the idea of not disturbing ppl by their phone calls or music? I cannot count all the situation when this happened to me and I unsuccessfully tried to convince the other person to stop being ignorant...
