Hi European here.
I always heard America is pretty competitive and that the people are very direct/speak their mind.
I’m quite the sensitive person, so I was wondering if it could be hard for me if I would ever go to America and if I needed to become more “tough”.
And would someone like me even be welcomed or would I be rejected?
A French coworker of mine back in Australia was talking about how much cashiers smile, and I was like “oh yeah, people are real friendly, great right?” To which she replied “I just want to tell them stop it, you’re not my friend!”
