misc snippets

At the post office a few weeks ago, and the Hispanic clerk was talking to the heavily-accented Hispanic customer in english. I watched him becoming more annoyed with the customer because he couldn't follow even basic instructions and he asked him to address the 12" square box, or put his finger here so the clerk could tape it closed for him. Finally, the clerk, trying to determine if the item was fragile, asked the customer what was in the box. The customer says "a toilet."

....

I thought to myself "this is a great place" the other day when the Russian doctor was showing an Indian (Hindi) doctor how to do something on a Hispanic patient while generic caucasians assisted.
