Yeah, the wage system here is super shocking compared to Oz, especially when contrasted with just how friendly and pleasant the people in those positions are. I guess it's kinda enforced so they can survive, but in Australia you get a much more relaxed, human kind of service because their income isn't tied to how perfect and glossy they can be.
The food is way better in the US, though.
You might be the first non-American who has ever said that to me. Haha.
