In hungary we say: “neighbor’s cow must die too”. The longer story is that there was 3 man, one american, one german and one hungarian. All of them had a cow. God killed all the cows, but later he felt bad, so asked the 3 guy, how could he fix this. God asked them all. American man was like: “not a big deal, nothing happened.” The german said: you took one cow, so give me one cow back. The hungarian man said: kill my neighbors cow too, and we will be good!😂 I didn’t know that this is so popular all around the east😂😂

As a Slovenian, I think im obligated to share my opinions/thoughts on the "American waiter vs. Slovenian waiter" thing...FROM MY UNDERSTANDING (and my personal experiances in general) Slovenias tend to go to restaurants for 1 of 2 reasons, either A) for a quick stop before going back on the road, or B) to enjoy some quality food and relax with their friends and/or family...as a Slovenian, every single time i have gone to a restaurant, i have been there for a BARE MINIMUM of 1-2h, Slovenian waiters KNOW that you are there to enjoy the food and have fun with your family/friends and do NOT want to be disturbed while doing so! 99% of Slovenian waiters will NOT check up on your table more than once or twice during your entire meal (which usually consists of a full three course meal btw, dunno if i mentioned that) and thats GOOD! I dont want the waiter to keep interrupting my conversation 😅

I've worked in restaurants here in Slovenia, so I can share my opinion as the person on the other side. I always felt so uncomfortable going to tables as people were eating to check up on them. If my boss told me, then I had to go but I would usually wait until they at least finish eating or they called me to request more drinks or something like that. I think something like that is pretty ingrained in a lot of us lol

I’m on the fence about waitstaff being attentive vs. non-attentive. On one hand, it’s nice to feel like you’re the only table that matters, but on the other hand (and it’s just that I’m a low-maintenance type of customer at any restaurant) it always seems like the waiter/waitress comes up to me when I have a whole mouthful of food to ask if I need something or if there’s any problem with the quality of food. Since it’s rude to talk with a mouthful, I end up just giving a thumbs-up or if I need something I hold up my index finger to ask them to wait (and quietly deduct 1% of their tip for interrupting me each occurrence) and let them know what I need. Some places I go to have waitstaff that seem to understand this notion so my mileage has varied😂.

Whatsup Little Squirrelie. 1st 1. Apparently Dutch is the hardest 2 learn European language, because of the exeptions upon exeptions upon exeptions upon exeptions for every rule. Either how G (or ch) is pronounced in Dutch isn't very common anymore in more in world. Compared 2 like Germanic, Latin, etc languages, the Slovene languages split of pretty late. 2nd. Those type of drivers we have here as well, especially in certain cities. The 3rd. The neigbor thing we have here in some places as well, but when it is a big holiday (be it a country holiday or a city/village holiday or even a street holiday) in city/village than they r all so nice, same when their is a tournament like soccer against a other place than ccomradery happens as well. The 4th 1. Here with service it does depend per place, sometimes you must go 2 the paying thing 1st for ordering, other times you must wait for a seat 1st and mby can order immediately, while others you have 2 wait for seat and wait for ordering, other times you can just sit and automatically get someone, other places you can just sit and have 2 wait for it. Depends a lot on what for type of eating place it is as well and how busy it is at that time. In bars i have always seen so far that it is ordering at the paying thing, but can choose whenever you sit. In some places if get a bottle or a can than can take with you and go outside, any glass stays inside. Apparently in USA you don't have 2 tip, as the waitress/waitresses still have 2 be paid in full if get no tips. It is more common that it happens and can save the owner some money and can invest more in restaurant. Fifth 1. We have a lot of flea markets here, it is pretty common 2 see tradesmen there. The bureaucracy is here a mess as well, but i think it is a mess in most places. It is either 1 big reason why the (government controlled) healthcare is such a terrible thing. As far as i have seen you can't buy a buss ticket online here. You or must buy a buss ticket in buss (what must be with a pincard) or use a chipcard (what can be put on phone, what isn't a trustworthy system) and log in when step in buss and when step out you log out and pay that way. Used 2 able stamp ticket at magazine stores or at the buss, but that is no more. With trains there is a ticket machine where can buy ticket with pincard and credit card (what is mostly in there for ppl from countries that use it) or use the chipcard (what is basically same as with buss, but the check in/out is just before stepping on the railway platform or at beginging of train station). You used 2 be able get a ticket from conductor and wave ppl goodbye when they leave on train --- Stay awesome and positive yourself Little Squirrelie🐿🚋.The cute sound at the end was funny. Seems youtube bugged out when 1st send the comment and 1st didn't send and when i send the comment again it made it 2 X.

"Apparently Dutch is the hardest 2 learn European language" - no linguist would agree with that. Don't know where you heard it but it's absolutely not true.
@PureMaddnessOne
@PureMaddnessOne 11 месяцев назад
@@barrysteven5964 I mean for other Germanic language speakers it is a bit easier, it is a bit from where you r from and individual level. It was stated by a few linguists a few years ago and was on average speaking. A TRUE hardest language is a bit hard check, because of were ppl live and individual person. But as i read it a few years ago, it of course could've changed, should've been a bit clearer on it and said i read it a few years ago and probably would've been better if i said it could be 1 of the hardest currently. I did either forget 2 add that Dutch have a lot of dialects, even dialects within dialects group. There is 1 province where the dialect is sometimes seen as its own language. But thanks for correction.

I'm English and it's the same with waiters in the UK as in Slovenia. The waiter will maybe check on you once or twice but otherwise if you want something you will have to attract their attention. That's how we like it. It's annoying if you get a server who keeps bothering you. You NEVER get the bill until you ask for it. We would consider it really rude to have the bill put on the table before asking for it. It's like saying 'OK, you can go now!' I recently went to a restaurant/bar in Liverpool with a few friends and one of them brought an American visitor. Along with getting there on public transport the American really enjoyed the fact we arrived at about two o'clock and didn't leave till after six. He said he'd never in his life sat so long at a restaurant table.

Restaurants are supposed to be welcoming hosts and provide guests with peace, beyond the actual food and drink. In America they have this concept of constant interruption to try to sell them something more or to move them out of the place just as soon as possible so they can resell the table. I can never swallow my last bite before my plate is gone from underneath my mouth. I'm serious, I'm not exaggerating. They literally remove my plate before I finish swallowing the last bite. When I go to dinner with a friend I haven't seen in a while, it is impossible to have an uninterrupted meaningful conversation. The server will come and tell you their name (you're supposed to remember it), and as soon as you start talking they'll come and ask if everything's OK. And come again and again. They've once told me that their supervisor checked on them, to make sure they weren't to every table every seven minutes to ask if they wanted something else. I've never wanted to be rude because I know that it's a cultural difference, but I feel like asking: "hey dude, do you see this friend I have here? Do you really think I came to talk to you all night long? For goodness' sake, leave us in peace. I promise I will call you if I need something else." It's all about the new concept by which the client is at the service of the company and not the other way around. We have to understand that they have a restaurant to make money and we have to be mindful that the waiter has a boss that needs to check that the service... and we have to... and we have to... How about the customer comes to have some peace and we will be at his or her service? I guess that's so 20th century! Thank God in Europe it's still like that.

Apart from Western countries where the service is "PROACTIVE", in SLAV countries its considered RUDE or BOTHERSOME when you have a waiter come up to you while you are in the middle of a conversation or laughing or eating and have your mouth full and the waiter asks "Are you doing good??? Everything all right??? Would you like something else???" As a SLAVIC person i HATE THAT SO MUCH... In Slavic culture, at least most Slavic cultures im familiar with, if you the customer want to order something additional or another drink or you want to complain or praise or comment on the service, YOU CALL THE WAITER and THEN you engage in conversation... that way you dont have your mouth full and your conversations are not interrupted... so its a FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE in CULTURAL NORMS and APPROACHES...not Slavs being impolite or whatever...

For me the best waiter is the one who I don't really notice much while having a meal I have interaction with him in the beginning to order something and then I am having conversation with my friends and waiter just does his job - i.e. bring meals, takes empty plates and then I ask him for a bill and that's it I would be quiet annoyed by waiter asking me 5 times "Is everything ok?", "Do you want to order something else?" - I will consider this as him trying to sell me something If waiter notices me fast, comes to my table so I can order, quickly brings my bill after - I value this as a customer the most

When I lived in Slovenia in the mid 2000 as a dual citizen, I had to organise my tax file number and health insurance. Upon entering my local upravna enota, I was given completely contrasting information about what I have to do in order to organise my affairs to the point that the notion of gaslighting taken to the next level of lunacy and idiocy! Saying that. I was also informed on numerous occasions that the needless bureaucracy was even worse in neighbouring Croatia, Austria and Italy.

Here's a thought. You see a lot of videos from the USA of angry, rude, demanding etc customers behaving badly. I'm sure these happen all over Europe as well but not to the same extent. You'd just get kicked out. Americans do seem to have a greater sense of entitlement in general. I think this is at least in part due to this idea that 'the customer is always right'. The servers behaving like old time servants and grovelling to the customers as though they were superior beings just makes it much worse. Apparently, 'the customer is always right' is quoted out of context. The person who originally said it actually said 'In matters of taste, the customer is always right'. So they just meant you can't tell a customer what to like and what not to like. The ludicrous idea that you're always right about everything just because you're a customer was never intended.

My cat that is a indoor/outdoor cat went once in my neighbours garage. Now the neighbours don't live full time at this location, so they come and go. My cat was in the garage when they decided to leave. So they locked the garage and left. I could hear my cat meowing and when i called him he was scratching the door. I called my neighbour and told her that my cat is in their garage. She asked very concerned if the cat would be OK staying there over night as it was night already as they are already getting ready for bed. I told her that he was fed and it wouldn't be a problem, but that i would appreciate if she would come in the morning and let the cat out. She came in the morning, before work, let the cat out and apologized to me for locking her in, then she ran to her car and took a candy bar and gave it to me for compensation :D:D So no not all Neighbours are bad.

The bad neighbur problem thing is all about the fact that people in Slovenia are used to living on their own land. Even today it shows that 60+% of Slovenes live in a hause not an apartment so that is one thing and in the past 100 years because of all the moving around of Slovenians by outside forces it forced many of them to live in cities not villages where they were used to having their own land and then they were put in a small apartment in a city, so i think bad neighburs that wish bad on eachother is more of a city thing, i have yet to see a village where neighburs hate eachother and wish bad things for eachother, it doesn't happen. I think that is the reason why in Ljubljana for an example you find so many grumpy neighburs, and the cat story she told is true in cities they do poison your pets if they find them anoyying, my friends dog was poisoned because he barked sometimes and the neighbur killed him. But outside of the city it's way better in terms of animal care, every hause has a cat and/or a dog. The UE (Upravna Enota) tho is shit.

So, Upravna Enota, is government bureaucracy, for the sake of bureaucracy. Also, do not modernize so much. It is not worth it. It is highly overrated. Stay simple.

Tradesmen (and any other person you deal with) show up when they personally like you. When they don't like you, or your nationality, or any person who may be or has been associated with you, they just let you down. But, is this unique to Slovenia? (I am a foreigner living in Slovenia.)

American way of table service is perverse, mock, annoying. I prefer old school continental european professional, career waiter with polite stiff upper lip, knowledgeable, but discrete. You came ro dinner to have a nice evening with your friend/spouse/etc, not to watch awkward affection performance of an underpaid server fishing for a higher tip

I'm from.Slovenia. I don't agree with a non punctuality of the Bussiness. I think here is better to come 15 minutes before the meeting, than late or actually never. Real Slovenian is punctual and strickt as you would say for Germans. But it's a fact that many of Slovenian citisans have Balkan roots who are more relaxed and leasure so maybe the author came across someone like that. And yes, we are very jealous of our neighbours. I would like to live somewhere where you don't feel the eyes on your back becouse of the new something you own.

When I lived in Germany my neighbors were always my landlord as well. For the most part they were cool. I played in two different bands so my hours were all over the place but they didn’t ever complain when I stumbled in at 3 or 4 in the morning. But there is always a nosy neighbor that just can’t help themselves from getting in your business for one reason or another. I’m in a great place now and haven’t had to deal with this for a long time now. I only play in one band now, much easier and I quit drinking alcohol several years ago. DUI’s are expensive and inconvenient as well. Thanks Barb! Take care 🎸🤓🌎☮️❤️🥓

UGHHH…Barbara, you kept saying the term upravna enota without once explaining what it means! So very annoying. I kind of understood the basic idea (bureaucratic agency/ies), but the primary English translation I found is “administrative unit.” Wtf? That brings up more questions than answers. So is upravna enota government agencies, is it one single agency, is it any kind of agency, governmental or not? See what I mean? Do explain, please. 🧐

Upravna enota is a Slovenian administrative unit that is responsible for carrying out a variety of administrative tasks, such as issuing passports and identity cards, registering births, deaths, and marriages, and processing applications for various permits and licenses. Upravne enote (administrative units) are located throughout Slovenia, and they are there for citizens to access essential government services.

About 3/4 of citizen to gouverment transactions happen at upravna enota things like getting new IDs, registering for drivers license tests(and even take them) and many such transactions. Basically every administrative unit has their administrative unit(yes thats not a joke one of ways of spliting the country is administrative units upravne enote and each one has a building called upravna enota its the building she was talking about) sorry for kinda bad explanation never realy thought i would have to explain one.

As a Slovene I have following comments: Regarding the restaurants: when I visited US and went several times outside to have a dinner, the waitress/waiter came to me like 3-4 times asking me if all is good, after I got served with the food. So this was like a very fast dinner :), 15-20 min. And in this time, while eating for like 10 min, I got asked 3-4 times if all is good. On the other hand in Slovenia you get served and most likely no one will ask you inbetween how is the food like. Some they do, but rarely according to my experiences. My verdict: US waitresses/waiters I find much more nicer and very customer oriented. However, they may be a bit irritating with asking too often, while you eat with your mouth full. With Slovenian waitresses/waiter I often think they just want to die in front of me :). No life, no communication, often got a feeling that they think like: "just order a fu... food, pay and get a hell out of here". Especially with younger ones. Of course there are also nice ones. Driving: yeah, if you plan to come to Slovenia and drive here then prepare for a battle :). The drivers here are crazy. No safety distance, blinking with head lights, honking, overtaking in "scissors", ... Outside of a car almost everyone is super friendly, but as soon as they go into a car they become like suicidal maniacs :). And if they are stopped by a police, a lot go like crazy as if to say "why the hell you pulled me over"? "Sir, you were speeding way to much" :). It is hilarious. But other than that I would say it is good to live in Slovenia as well as in the US or any other country. It is more of a personal preference.

I live in Lethbridge, Canada now for almost 4 years, and the experience here is very similar to your US experience. I hate it when the servers come ask me x-times if everything is okay. Just let me eat in peace 🤣 I might even tip less if I get annoyed too much by the server. Iz prejšnjega videa sem videl, da tudi rada kampiraš. Z ženo rada greva pohajat in kampirat v kanadske rockyje nekajkrat na leto. Če imaš željo videti ta del severne amerike, se lahko dogovorimo za kakšno skupno kampiranje/pohod, saj nismo tako daleč narazen. Would be nice to have someone on the trip who appreciates hearing some nice balkan cursewords, when I inevitably injure myself, pitching a tent 😆

The problem with Slovene Slovenes is they do not recognise that their diaspora may not be conversant with the language and forget to provide a translation. The big problem for me is the multiplicity of words in Yugoslavia for the same item. The university of Zagreb tried to create an internal dictionary forYugoslavia but then the civil war broke out so that every republic now had its own language.@@killer5934
