The tipping culture is so crazy that even braider asked me for tip. A self employed lady who set up her prices for her braiding services. I asked her why she didn’t add the tip to the service cost. The entitlement is too much. It’s almost like legalized theft

And for the job thing, you’re right. They will easily employ you if you were recommended by someone who is already in the job.

I really don’t think a lot of Africans don’t want to help but our people are really still struggling, you might see them at the top but some of them have just one leg in after going through fire to get the job… so some of them are afraid to put other Africans forward so they don’t loose their seats….

To think I had also visited before and didnt notice any of these things. It really hits different when you start living in a new place.

My life took a different turn two months ago but overall I'll say that God has been faithful. One effect of my new life just hit me yesterday but surprisingly, I'm not tensed. I am more at peace and I know that it can only be God. So yeah, I'm fine.. I guess I can be better though😂 I'm giving shady explanations just because I don't want to give everything away 😂 I hope you understand I just responded to the How are you question because you asked us to

I guess it must have been a looonnng time since you were here. The tipping will shock people who moved from the UK to here. But here in the US? Ha!

This is what most of them say to justify tips. May be different for certain restaurants. But this is true, ask a waiter.

People love their pets in civilized countries and they're generally harmless so you may want to get used to it 😂😂😂 My own is sha keep them on a leash. You're in BC so you will see all kinds of wild animals 😂 Pele. The PNW mountain views compensate for that.

Awwwn! This was fun to watch. I think your culture shocks are different now because the last time you were in US, there was no Tise and you were still much younger. Now, the factors to consider are a lot more like getting a school for her and all. Also, to be safer, I think the term you were looking for is ethnic minorities to sound politically correct😅. I also can’t understand why the taxes there are more. It beats me. Tipping is in important o. If you’ve been on the other side doing odd jobs, you’ll know just how helpful it can be😅 Absolutely love your skin glow by the way☺️. Looking forward to more story time videos

Bemi you didn't tip in US? 😂 It's the same culture. On a serious note, waiters are paid below minimum wage, so they rely on tips to earn a living. I just tip as my reasonable service not out of compulsion especially after the pandemic where these people's income suffered the most. You see the taxes ehn?! Nobody prepared me for that. Never in my 10 years in US did I pay as much taxes as Canada. Cost of living is also a lot higher than US and disposable income is lower. God is helping us sha.
