There was not really much honor previously. Most would just take the money in the 80’s, even 2000’s depending where. This is more the result of incentivizing people to return wallets, which has clearly developed into a part of culture since then.
While drivers NA litter the most and all just can't hold on to trash while some bins are in NYC their spread apart to i get some don't want to litter their car but NYC can't do as other parts to is still traveled by those far and wide! It's nuts!
I mean in this video you can see they aren't completely clean. But it's also true that, as he said, this was a party district on a weekend night, so I'd expect it to be more dirty that average.
I worked as a waiter in a small family owned Japanese restaurant and I got tipped once (it was 1000 yen so it’s like a lot) and I just stared at the bill and then when I tried to refuse and the customer told me that it’s ok, my boss was like „yeah, just take it“ That was a wild experience
Japan typically pays workers what they are worth, no matter the job. So people are far less desperate for money than Americans. They have a lot of pride in their cities looking beautiful, and they have the social awareness to to accept a mild inconvenience for other people, like carrying trash.
Part of this isnt true, prices in japan are low cuz no inflation but the price of that is that pay is quite low. The majority of citizens live paycheck to paycheck and can't save as easily. They are also severely overworked
when people are taken care of they don’t need to question whether someone else’s $10 or whatever is gonna be the only thing that allows them to see the next day or feed their kids-it’s beautiful to see what can happen when everyone isn’t so desperate
@@Vocarotoki with any flaws they have, they are still doing so much better-if you think about it for a second, americans are overworked and a majority of them still can’t afford basic needs?? their homelessness is so much lower. i’m not saying everything there is perfect, i’m saying america could also be better off if it cared to look after it’s citizens rather than it’s companies.
@madfisch473 true America has more homeless people than japan but japan has other problems like the birthrate i think they could both learn from eachother
@@icey-po2wk they care enough to allow a more of their citizens to have homes and therefore a basic quality of life. also there are AMERICAN cities where the citizens do not have running water that is safe to drink or cook with. and we certainly have the funds to fix that problem. explain to me why a country that cares about its people would choose to let kids starve when it has so much money?
Eating and drinking while walking is highly discouraged, thus the lack of garbage cans/dustbins. If you have trash you stick it in your pocket until you find a place to throw it away, mainly when you get home.
Ive been to Japan before one of the tourists on the same tour as mine ,eft her phone on the table while we were having breakfast. By the time we got on the bus , left almost 30-40 mins then she remembered she left her phone on the table , so we turned back to the place , everything was clean and the phone still on the table, her friend also left the luggage in the bathroom even on a different tour , she also got it back safely

@yukudbzn your wrong on this one pal, the way you present the money can be considered rude or indecent, if it's in a envelope then it's not rude, don't know why but it's just like that
Nope. Tipping itself is considered rude in Japanese Culture because even when you give it in an envelope, you're saying that you're better than them and that they need your pity. You're never supposed to tip in Japan or most of the world. Tipping is a culture in the USA because greedy business owners decided instead of giving their workers a fair wage, it's better to cut down prices to entice more customers while also lowering wages and making it so the customers are responsible for paying the rent of their workers.
That’s because they have amazing social support systems there are no people who are homeless or sick and left of the street by the hospital because lack of payment-- we need more social services and a living wage with national healthcare mental care and dental included
Sadly they do have a homeless population though it is all mostly elderly/disabled as there is no one to care for them. Many tend to hide throughout the days
But then where would we get money to waste billions on military research that is useless (e.g. magnetic carrier launchers), billions more in aod, weapons, etc to give to other countries while our own citizens starve, or line the pockets of every person in a position of power?
Now no one is talking about how Japan is pouring million tonnes of nuclear waste water into the ocean affecting all of the fish around there???? And the reason why they don’t pick up the money because it is only about 6 bucks and it’s raining out there.
It's considered rude to tip because it's like you think that they aren't being paid enough for their work and it's seen as rude to say that. ✨The more you know✨
In Kabukicho Tower in Tokyo, I had a bad experience with tipping. I ordered 1 item for takeout and they added around 15% tip without letting me sit and eat it over there.
@@jonasklein7260 Tax was mentioned separately on the bill. They added 15% as an additional charge/tip. This was the only restaurant in Japan which did that during my 14 days of stay there.
@@IllegalActivities how is that a rational argument lmao. I have to meet everyone in the world to be able to determine any fact about an individual or culture. do you realize how much information that invalidates because we don't have all of the data, and never will as it's impossible.

@@stevearoni Bottom line, if you're going to make such a statement then say "I think", or "in my opinion". Because your comment is written in such a way that what you wrote is interpreted to be a fact. Without physically interacting with japanese citizens and other people around the world you can't make such a large factual claim. So I assume that the original comment was your opinion then.
@@IllegalActivities the comment is written in a way that is open ended as I never said "they are" I just said "they are some of", as in they are in the higher percent of honorable people, you could even interpret it as they just simply qualify (isn't necessarily untrue just because I personally dont have all the data). no one has every bit of data to truly be able to say anything as fact, by your logic. one could argue an average Japanese person doesn't know about Japanese culture because they haven't met every individual and been to every other place in the world to compare (obv bullshit). also, how can you assume that I haven't physically interacted with Japanese people or different cultures in general? (maybe I did just that). very ironic that you're complaining about a supposed assumption with an assumption, completely contradicting your main sentiment. but I definitely understand where you're coming from about spewing garble goo in the comments polluting it from any actual substance. if you can support your claim that japanese aren't in the higher percentile of honorable modern cultures around the world, which is basically what you're arguing is untrue, I'll reconsider my initial comment.
There are many benefits to a collectivist society vs an individualist. Unfortunately, the extreme collectivism also has some major downsides as well. A hybrid style is best.
hmm.... as a student in studying in a japanese university, I can say that this is actually a misunderstanding. the reason why they don't take those money is because there is cctv or it usually contained dangerous substance like one case where a person got his arm amputated after touching a bill on the roadside. Meanwhile me and my friend found a 500 yen coin near a bridge at kyoto and was still joking & discussing about taking it around 10 meters away before a japanese old man suddenly stop on his bike and put it in his pocket...
This man in the video also thinks 1000 yen is a lot it is comparable to 7 USD who is grabbing dirty soggy money off the side walk when it’s not worth that much
Homogeneity + very low wealth inequality and a strong cultural sense of community. There are relatively homogenous societies that have high wealth inequality and they still have high crime. But also, Japan faces population decline that is hitting it hard economically due to it's low immigration rates.
Tipping culture is often seen as rude in East Asia since it kinda says to them “oh, you’re poor and you need it” which is how they view tips, compared to America where it’s about service quality. About the trashcans. It might be a bit of speculation, but most of the reason why Japan doesn’t have public trashcans may be attributed to an incident where a bomb was hidden in a trash bin in one of the transit stations. To remove that threat, they removed trashcans.
Well if your working as a waitress, yeah your poor. People in usa working minimum wage make a living off tips, otherwise they would be homeless. I’m sure most people aren’t greedy in East Asia because they don’t need to be.
@@randomname8220 I'd argue that public view is extremely important in places like East Asia, which contributes to such a view. Things like classism and elitism is very prevalent, where parents try to push for the best education, the best companies to work for, etc. If you take South Korea for example, how do you explain the title like "the Republic of Samsung"? Many people there place value on wealth and status and are often shunned if they are viewed as poor. Many pieces of media from South Korea touch on this topic (Squid Game, Lookism, etc.). For women, it's considered "polite" for them to wear makeup in order to be "presentable". You often run the risk of being judged if you're not dressed up, albeit maybe they won't say it to your face. Not to mention that in East Asian work culture, compared to the US they tend to work longer hours on average compared to the US. It's just that compared to the US, it's much more affordable to live in East Asia compared to the US in terms of shopping, food, etc. In major cities in the US, where median home prices often start at 500k US, and on top of that overpriced food due to inflation, utilities, transportation (since many places in the US rely on cars), taxes, healthcare. While they have a collectivistic view and have better services compared to the US, I'd say many are far from not being elitist or classist. At the end of the day, East Asia (mostly) identifies as capitalistic countries, which therefore contributes to that.
i am in japan right now and in the morning a few days ago there was this little kid walking to school and i saw them hit their bag on a little pole and they sat there for 30 seconds to say sorry and gave it a hug the kid was probably 5.
Japan has remained a mostly ethnically homogeneous society, a high-trust environment is the natural result. Any nation that values diversity over having a unifying ethnic culture is destined to see more petty crime, less unity, and a prevailing 'me and mine' attitude. But this is what western nations wanted, isn't it?
It’s almost as if they’re a highly homogenous population with a shared sense of national unity living in a society built on honor and respect. In other words, there aren’t many leftists in Japan.
Went shopping in Akihabara and ran into a friend at the train station. We went drinking at a pub, and I forgot all my shopping items at the pub on the ground between the door and the coat rack. Went back the next evening, and everything was still there. The bartender remembered me and said, "I knew you'd be back." and poured me another beer. When I was paying for my tab, he jokingly said, "Leave your stuff, so you come back tomorrow." Best country I've visited so far.
This is why i would love to go to Japan, that part about tip culture being offensive because they view it as just doing their job is what i love, they aren't greedy with wanting to take money yet still give such outstanding service at the very least demands and deserves respect
I’m going to America this year in summer and I promise you they only way they’re getting a tip out of me is if the service is immaculate, we don’t force tips in the UK
One of the reasons why there aren’t many public trash bins is that they were used in a Sarin gas attack in 1995, so they reduced the number of public bins to avoid them getting used for another attack
the tipping is an issue only in america, im from a small country in europe and tipping is not normal, if u want money u work, but the problem in america is that businesses that work on tips expect the tips to be the main source of income instead of them actually paying their employees 😢
lack of garbage cans are really a problem in places with high tourism, for example the godzilla street in shinjuku has loads of trashbags everywhere because theres no bins and so many tourists, they need to implement more bins
I actually lost my debit card when I went to japan. About one day later i got a call from the nearby police station, because it was found and turned in immediately. They just had a bit of a hard time figuring out where I was staying. It's still very impressive to me. ♡
Yeah japan is a paradox on cleanliness despite no public trash bins. Being a tourist in japanese #1 tip: Don't accept unnecessary packaging and always remember where you last saw a trash bin. They are very literally a save point.
In other places, they pay everyone a living wage so if you tip in public you’re basically saying that you think they’re poor and that they need money that’s why it’s seen as rude
Tipping isn’t rude in Japan! Many would be happy to have extra money. The biggest issue is that giving “naked” money is rude. There are special envelopes specifically for gifting money. If you wanna tip in Japan, present it in an envelope with two hands directly to the recipient. ^_^
Tipping is actually pretty uncommon in most countries outside of the U.S, especially in Europe. It’s because there’s really not a need to in most cases due to the fact that workers are paid living wages.
perfect example of how society in usa (amongst other “western” nations such as uk) are focused heavily on individuals’ rights and benefits, whereas it is the complete opposite in japan and some other asian countries. the initial response to the covid-19 pandemic is another example, where lack of compliance to public health measures was more of an issue in “western” countries.
In Japan, tipping is included in your bill and if you try to give more money than what is on your bill then it’s considered rude and as looking down on them.

They demand you take your money back because tipping implies that they aren’t getting paid enough
Because the Japanese people retained to their culture of honor and respect. Respect to Japan!

There was not really much honor previously. Most would just take the money in the 80’s, even 2000’s depending where. This is more the result of incentivizing people to return wallets, which has clearly developed into a part of culture since then.
It's not as honourable as it's made out to be. Racism there is a huge issue, and overworking is also still an issue.

I worked as a waiter in a small family owned Japanese restaurant and I got tipped once (it was 1000 yen so it’s like a lot) and I just stared at the bill and then when I tried to refuse and the customer told me that it’s ok, my boss was like „yeah, just take it“

Japan typically pays workers what they are worth, no matter the job. So people are far less desperate for money than Americans. They have a lot of pride in their cities looking beautiful, and they have the social awareness to to accept a mild inconvenience for other people, like carrying trash.
Yeah minimum wage is still 7.50 in some us states and they have outrageous prices on everything it’s sad
Pays what workers are worth? You forget they also overwork they ass too? 😂 Theres some pro and cons
Animators: are you sure about that.
Animators: crying in the corner
They literally have problem with dying and depression because they are overworking and still not earning a lot💀
Part of this isnt true, prices in japan are low cuz no inflation but the price of that is that pay is quite low. The majority of citizens live paycheck to paycheck and can't save as easily. They are also severely overworked
Homogeneous cultures are harmonious.
Diverse cultures are divided.
*All of this is a reflection if how the upbringing is of the population. Our government wanted this*
when people are taken care of they don’t need to question whether someone else’s $10 or whatever is gonna be the only thing that allows them to see the next day or feed their kids-it’s beautiful to see what can happen when everyone isn’t so desperate

@@icey-po2wk they care enough to allow a more of their citizens to have homes and therefore a basic quality of life. also there are AMERICAN cities where the citizens do not have running water that is safe to drink or cook with. and we certainly have the funds to fix that problem. explain to me why a country that cares about its people would choose to let kids starve when it has so much money?
There are no dustbins, yet there is no rubbish either. Beautiful ❤️
Eating and drinking while walking is highly discouraged, thus the lack of garbage cans/dustbins. If you have trash you stick it in your pocket until you find a place to throw it away, mainly when you get home.
Ive been to Japan before one of the tourists on the same tour as mine ,eft her phone on the table while we were having breakfast. By the time we got on the bus , left almost 30-40 mins then she remembered she left her phone on the table , so we turned back to the place , everything was clean and the phone still on the table, her friend also left the luggage in the bathroom even on a different tour , she also got it back safely
bro it’s raining. i wouldnt pick up a soggy bill either

The post it was sitting on would get stolen with it
The money would disappear the moment he entered Romanian airspace
Why do you say that?
I was shocked when I learned about tipping for the first time like I've already paid
Japan is probably the only place I would be sad I couldn't tip lol
Honestly, I love Japan. They aren’t so greedy and their food is absolutely amazing.
In Japan the police considers you guilty until proven innocent
Now look at racial studies between both. One race causes 60% of the issues, and Japan has almost none of them.
Tipping is not considered rude. You are supposed to leave tips on an envelope. Handing someone cash is considered rude.
ur not supposed to leave any tips
its not rude but its just not a thing in japan
@yukudbzn your wrong on this one pal, the way you present the money can be considered rude or indecent, if it's in a envelope then it's not rude, don't know why but it's just like that
@@TheBattyVR i was talking about tipping i know handing people money without using an envelope is rude im japanese
Nope. Tipping itself is considered rude in Japanese Culture because even when you give it in an envelope, you're saying that you're better than them and that they need your pity. You're never supposed to tip in Japan or most of the world. Tipping is a culture in the USA because greedy business owners decided instead of giving their workers a fair wage, it's better to cut down prices to entice more customers while also lowering wages and making it so the customers are responsible for paying the rent of their workers.
They probably just didn't want a soggy note lmao
That’s because they have amazing social support systems there are no people who are homeless or sick and left of the street by the hospital because lack of payment-- we need more social services and a living wage with national healthcare mental care and dental included
Sadly they do have a homeless population though it is all mostly elderly/disabled as there is no one to care for them. Many tend to hide throughout the days
But then where would we get money to waste billions on military research that is useless (e.g. magnetic carrier launchers), billions more in aod, weapons, etc to give to other countries while our own citizens starve, or line the pockets of every person in a position of power?
Thats just blatantly untrue 😭
Now no one is talking about how Japan is pouring million tonnes of nuclear waste water into the ocean affecting all of the fish around there???? And the reason why they don’t pick up the money because it is only about 6 bucks and it’s raining out there.
It's considered rude to tip because it's like you think that they aren't being paid enough for their work and it's seen as rude to say that.
✨The more you know✨
But that's kind of what happens when cameras are around.
In Kabukicho Tower in Tokyo, I had a bad experience with tipping. I ordered 1 item for takeout and they added around 15% tip without letting me sit and eat it over there.
Nah mate, there is no tipping in Japan. Was probably the 7%/10% tax
@@jonasklein7260 Tax was mentioned separately on the bill. They added 15% as an additional charge/tip.

I assume you have met every person on the planet to make such a statement, and not just personal bias because of some 30 second TH-cam short.
@@IllegalActivities how is that a rational argument lmao. I have to meet everyone in the world to be able to determine any fact about an individual or culture. do you realize how much information that invalidates because we don't have all of the data, and never will as it's impossible.

Just racist as shit lmfao
@@stevearoni Bottom line, if you're going to make such a statement then say "I think", or "in my opinion". Because your comment is written in such a way that what you wrote is interpreted to be a fact. Without physically interacting with japanese citizens and other people around the world you can't make such a large factual claim. So I assume that the original comment was your opinion then.
@@IllegalActivities the comment is written in a way that is open ended as I never said "they are" I just said "they are some of", as in they are in the higher percent of honorable people, you could even interpret it as they just simply qualify (isn't necessarily untrue just because I personally dont have all the data). no one has every bit of data to truly be able to say anything as fact, by your logic.
one could argue an average Japanese person doesn't know about Japanese culture because they haven't met every individual and been to every other place in the world to compare (obv bullshit). also, how can you assume that I haven't physically interacted with Japanese people or different cultures in general? (maybe I did just that). very ironic that you're complaining about a supposed assumption with an assumption, completely contradicting your main sentiment.
but I definitely understand where you're coming from about spewing garble goo in the comments polluting it from any actual substance. if you can support your claim that japanese aren't in the higher percentile of honorable modern cultures around the world, which is basically what you're arguing is untrue, I'll reconsider my initial comment.
99% ethnically japanese
There are many benefits to a collectivist society vs an individualist. Unfortunately, the extreme collectivism also has some major downsides as well. A hybrid style is best.
hmm.... as a student in studying in a japanese university, I can say that this is actually a misunderstanding.
the reason why they don't take those money is because there is cctv or it usually contained dangerous substance like one case where a person got his arm amputated after touching a bill on the roadside.
Meanwhile me and my friend found a 500 yen coin near a bridge at kyoto and was still joking & discussing about taking it around 10 meters away before a japanese old man suddenly stop on his bike and put it in his pocket...
This man in the video also thinks 1000 yen is a lot it is comparable to 7 USD who is grabbing dirty soggy money off the side walk when it’s not worth that much
People don't take because they hope the owner will look for their missing stuff.
What a homogenous society does to a mf
japan is 10x more homogeneous than america
Homogeneity + very low wealth inequality and a strong cultural sense of community. There are relatively homogenous societies that have high wealth inequality and they still have high crime. But also, Japan faces population decline that is hitting it hard economically due to it's low immigration rates.
This is why Japan is such a great country
It’s called discipline.
that's because it's not as dark in Japan
Tipping culture is often seen as rude in East Asia since it kinda says to them “oh, you’re poor and you need it” which is how they view tips, compared to America where it’s about service quality.
About the trashcans. It might be a bit of speculation, but most of the reason why Japan doesn’t have public trashcans may be attributed to an incident where a bomb was hidden in a trash bin in one of the transit stations. To remove that threat, they removed trashcans.
Well if your working as a waitress, yeah your poor. People in usa working minimum wage make a living off tips, otherwise they would be homeless. I’m sure most people aren’t greedy in East Asia because they don’t need to be.
@@randomname8220 I'd argue that public view is extremely important in places like East Asia, which contributes to such a view. Things like classism and elitism is very prevalent, where parents try to push for the best education, the best companies to work for, etc. If you take South Korea for example, how do you explain the title like "the Republic of Samsung"? Many people there place value on wealth and status and are often shunned if they are viewed as poor. Many pieces of media from South Korea touch on this topic (Squid Game, Lookism, etc.). For women, it's considered "polite" for them to wear makeup in order to be "presentable". You often run the risk of being judged if you're not dressed up, albeit maybe they won't say it to your face. Not to mention that in East Asian work culture, compared to the US they tend to work longer hours on average compared to the US. It's just that compared to the US, it's much more affordable to live in East Asia compared to the US in terms of shopping, food, etc. In major cities in the US, where median home prices often start at 500k US, and on top of that overpriced food due to inflation, utilities, transportation (since many places in the US rely on cars), taxes, healthcare. While they have a collectivistic view and have better services compared to the US, I'd say many are far from not being elitist or classist. At the end of the day, East Asia (mostly) identifies as capitalistic countries, which therefore contributes to that.
It’s because they don’t have a certain demographic there
The video in the beginning did not show a “spotless” street. Cans and paper were everywhere!
The SF joke had me 💀💀💀
They have respect and heritage.
They realize how nice things could be.
That's because his children are taught integrity honesty the humility
Japanese honor is a thing. Respect.
That’s 69 cents, dude 😂

Honor by definition.
i am in japan right now and in the morning a few days ago there was this little kid walking to school and i saw them hit their bag on a little pole and they sat there for 30 seconds to say sorry and gave it a hug the kid was probably 5.
Japan has remained a mostly ethnically homogeneous society, a high-trust environment is the natural result. Any nation that values diversity over having a unifying ethnic culture is destined to see more petty crime, less unity, and a prevailing 'me and mine' attitude. But this is what western nations wanted, isn't it?
It’s almost as if they’re a highly homogenous population with a shared sense of national unity living in a society built on honor and respect. In other words, there aren’t many leftists in Japan.
Went shopping in Akihabara and ran into a friend at the train station. We went drinking at a pub, and I forgot all my shopping items at the pub on the ground between the door and the coat rack. Went back the next evening, and everything was still there. The bartender remembered me and said, "I knew you'd be back." and poured me another beer. When I was paying for my tab, he jokingly said, "Leave your stuff, so you come back tomorrow." Best country I've visited so far.
This is why i would love to go to Japan, that part about tip culture being offensive because they view it as just doing their job is what i love, they aren't greedy with wanting to take money yet still give such outstanding service at the very least demands and deserves respect
Just the point that in Japan tip is considered offensive. In US you can't buy a coffee without paying a tip, or you wouldn't be served.
This is why I want to move there and yes I’m learning Japanese
It's not *ALL* sunshine and rainbows.
I’m going to America this year in summer and I promise you they only way they’re getting a tip out of me is if the service is immaculate, we don’t force tips in the UK
One of the reasons why there aren’t many public trash bins is that they were used in a Sarin gas attack in 1995, so they reduced the number of public bins to avoid them getting used for another attack
I’ve lived in South Korea for a year. Asian society is one of a kind.
the kiosk was like “plz they’re not paying me to do this”
In Japanese, the tip is part of the bill. It’s called a service fee which is extra and goes directly to the waiter
Trash cans are rare in public in Japan not for lack of space. It’s a cultural thing. In Japan you sit down and eat, you don’t grab and go.
We all know why there’s less crime in Japan.
coz there's less people
the tipping is an issue only in america, im from a small country in europe and tipping is not normal, if u want money u work, but the problem in america is that businesses that work on tips expect the tips to be the main source of income instead of them actually paying their employees 😢
lack of garbage cans are really a problem in places with high tourism, for example the godzilla street in shinjuku has loads of trashbags everywhere because theres no bins and so many tourists, they need to implement more bins
Tipping is the worst idea ever. If i were to ever go to america, i wouldnt tip anyone
There's a reason for the respect in Japan...
Wow..im impressed that any of those things were returned in NY
I actually lost my debit card when I went to japan. About one day later i got a call from the nearby police station, because it was found and turned in immediately. They just had a bit of a hard time figuring out where I was staying. It's still very impressive to me. ♡
May be those returned back in NY are by Japanese while those not returned back in Japan are taken by foreigners. 😊
It's almost like people in Japan are humble and treated like human beings
Yeah japan is a paradox on cleanliness despite no public trash bins. Being a tourist in japanese #1 tip: Don't accept unnecessary packaging and always remember where you last saw a trash bin. They are very literally a save point.
In other places, they pay everyone a living wage so if you tip in public you’re basically saying that you think they’re poor and that they need money that’s why it’s seen as rude
Sometimes there is staff to help you even though the kiosk is self service. The tip is for those people.
Either japanese people are just nice or they have a good economical situation
Tipping isn’t rude in Japan! Many would be happy to have extra money. The biggest issue is that giving “naked” money is rude. There are special envelopes specifically for gifting money. If you wanna tip in Japan, present it in an envelope with two hands directly to the recipient. ^_^
Just a reminder, we destroyed a hitchhiking robot at the FIRST location.
Almost like its a conservative ethnostate with very high ideals.
Tipping is actually pretty uncommon in most countries outside of the U.S, especially in Europe. It’s because there’s really not a need to in most cases due to the fact that workers are paid living wages.
perfect example of how society in usa (amongst other “western” nations such as uk) are focused heavily on individuals’ rights and benefits, whereas it is the complete opposite in japan and some other asian countries.
the initial response to the covid-19 pandemic is another example, where lack of compliance to public health measures was more of an issue in “western” countries.
Total safety. At the cost of total privacy. Cameras everywhere. Live in the country and you can have both.
In Japan, tipping is included in your bill and if you try to give more money than what is on your bill then it’s considered rude and as looking down on them.
Lol. That’s like dropping a quarter. Most people wouldn’t bat an eye to pick that up either if they’re in a hurry.
It's a culture thing. This literally proves it.
Japan has a culture of honor and respect. Something America is sorely lacking.
Math doesnt make sense here
Psst. Its because japan only has japanese.
