There are certain things about Americans that make me happy. For instance, I rented a car with Enterprise and when I discovered I had been overcharged, they reduced the price and gave me $400 USD to make it "right." The next day when I discovered that my new receipt didn't reflect the $400 discount, Enterprise took an additional $200 off to make it "right." There are not many countries where that would happen.
....and free refills. The only country with free refills.

@sinbach you can get free refills in the UK too

But you have to pay for them first 😂

@Berrybunchfamily I have learned that I am more likely to find free refills in the UK if I go to an american chain restaurant like Ruby Tuesdays, Five Guys, etc.

@sinbach I love the way you have to pay more to get the free refills......always bemuses me!

@sinbach @Berrybunchfamily don't get me started on American restaurant waitressing - always so SO friendly. As a Brit, it's terrifying...

@bethany @sinbach lol
Yep.

Never been to the states, but the UK doesn't fair well against the service I've seen in Spain or France

Not one of our finest moments...at least not in the ace I've been served...

@Berrybunchfamily @sinbach no you're right. We don't exactly go the extra mile with service. But the whole "give you your food and leave you alone" approach, I appreciate😂

@bethany i don't mind quiet efficiency, but the American side of me appreciates hyper friendly service

@sinbach I know I know. Our eating preferences couldn't be more different. It's a miracle we've ever been able to eat out at the same place 😂
