I work at Pretzelmaker in the University Mall, and I notice a lot of things about people while working there. One thing is that when we tell people that they will have to wait a few minutes for their product, most Caucasians say that they won't wait, whereas any other ethnicity usually does. So it got me wondering why white people will never wait. Some people who come are mall employees. We do have a different culture than other ethnicities. I don't think we discipline our children as much as other countries. We have a different mindset than other countries. The people in Utah even have a different mindset than other states.
I concluded that there are many reasons why Americans, mainly Caucasians, are more impatient than any other ethnicity that comes to Pretzelmaker. If we tell them that it'll be a 5 minute wait for whatever they are desiring, then they become angry and storm off. I think it's partly because of our culture and how we are raised. It could be, in the case of the mall employees, that they need to get back to work or their break is almost over. I think it also has to do with our expectations and our mindset. We expect to be able to get the product right then. It's what we are used to. We have supermarkets so that we don't have to go to more than one store for food and groceries. We are a very lackadaisical society.
