I retired in 2012 and it was my experience that most of us was afraid of being out of the office/workplace too long because we were fearful of being replaced. It seems productivity has been the measure of a 'good employee' even in my professional field as a therapist/triage specialist at a mental health facility. When your productivity dropped during a specific period you are still held accountable as your employer did not consider that you were on vacation for two weeks...your productivity level numbers dropped and you end up having to explain yourself and prove your value. It's a mess .

I was a school bus drive for 10 yrs. I heard kids talking in so many different languages. So I started asking, I found 35 different languages on just a bus of middle school kids. Spanish, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian, Greek, Arabic, sign language, Korean, Japanese, Italian, My mind was blown. Then I realized their parents had come here for work. This the greater Houston area, lots of jobs. The best part is they all got alone famously.

8:20 - dude, America is huge, we don't need to travel to other countries, we have the entire spectrum of nature within our own country. It's a multi-day drive from one side of the country to the other.

Born and raised in St Louis Missouri and worked in a large lab. One day walking through the facility to go home I heard conversations in Italian, Arabic, Pakistani, Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese, Russian, Nigerian, Indian and German and realized I never heard one word of English! However, I only speak English and most my family and neighbors have never heard anyone speaking anything else!!!

" All Americans are ignorant"...
Yea, EVERYONE is ignorant. It's a fact of life. I cannot know everything about everything.
"There is no shame in ignorance; the shame is in willfully remaining so"

Scotland was experiencing with Outlander what Australia experienced in the 80's with Crocodile Dundee. My advice: don't get used to it, we get bored easily lol

I’m American and speak English and Spanish. However, I know Americans with no recent immigrant history who speak languages other than English. I used to live in the South and some of my friends grew up in households where the primary language was Louisiana Creole or Cajun French. I also know people who speak Native American languages like for example Choctaw. In fact, Choctaw has been used by the U.S. military so obviously someone has to speak it. Now I’m in the Midwest and hear different German dialects spoken by Mennonites.
I grew up in California and heard more languages than I could count.

The problem in the US, especially for people lower on the ladder, is that we don't get a choice. Obviously we would LOVE to have more time off to spend with our families. But when the company says, "we NEED you! Work or face the consequences!" What choice do we have? I don't work because i love my job. I work because I'm hungry. I work because I need a roof over my head. I need heat in the winter and cool air in the summer. I work because I don't have a choice in the matter. And if the company says work or lose your job, then I have no choice but to work or try to find another job.

6:09 my ex-girlfriend is half Japanese and Half Brazilian, she knows three languages fluently: Portuguese, Japanese, Korean. She struggles with English tho, she can read and write it for the most part but speaking it and understanding spoken English is hard for her. Were are in a long distance relationship.

[hardtackbeans]

As far as American Stereotypes. I don't really care. LOL!! A lot of people 'take a swipe at the US'. It really is of no consequence.

[darraha]

We're workaholics because we don't have a choice. Overtime happens because we get paid 1.5x our pay.

I love Shaun's videos. I highly recommend his videos.

The US was settled by the very same people who live in England, Scotland, Ireland and they definitely brought their culture/religion with them.

[johnjdumas]

As an American: We have homeless and poor but a lot of this is impossible to balance freedom, choice, and rights against drugs, mental illness, and criminal selfish attitudes. America used to have bad to horrific mental health institutions and extremely long jail sentences for minor crimes. We have gone far the other way with criminals loose and also let people who can not take care of themselves fend for themselves with uncoordinated and inconsistent assistance. But, no matter where you draw a line people will be on the wrong side of that line in individual cases.

[natemalnaa]

As an American, I speak 3 languages, English, bad English, and sarcasm lol

[DeAnne]

He’s right. I’ve always wanted ti visit Scotland but even more so when I started watching Highlander.
Same for wanting to visit New Zealand with LOTR, UK and others with GOT, etc.
Americans loved when the a British shows started being aired on Masterpiece Theater, Netflix, Acorn and movie channels like HBO.
I can imagine to would give tourism a bump in Europe but it also let us in on all your great actors and entertainers.
A European tour is still on my bucket list.
With as much as we have in common and can get along, I think it’s going to feel like a second home away from home or a relative’s back yard (garden).

If you go down to Louisiana and Mississippi as well as Texas you here a French variant called bayou creole in Miami the Haitians have their form of creole plus all the native Americans still to some extent speak the native tongues

[TheRealdal]

The other thing about Americans and travel and lack of passport holders in America. We have every terrain and climate in our own country, therefore we don’t need to leave our own country as often. We don’t get as much vacation time to be able to go intercontinental very often if ever due to time constraints. And until a couple years ago, we could travel to Mexico and Canada with just a birth certificate and a drivers license. Only now do we need a passport to cross borders.

[Damons-Old-Soul]

The ending "holic" denotes addiction or Escapism from life. While there are Americans who use work to escape life, many work so many hours to build a business that they can later either sell and live off the profit or let others run the day to day in their behalf and make a more passive income off of.

Where I work it's pretty common for people to be made to use up vacation time at the end of the year that they didn't use that year and that's at a company that only gives 2 weeks per year. We are allowed to carry over vacation time for one year but if it's not used by the end of the second year the company forces employees to use it. I know of other companies that give employees the option of taking pay for their unused vacation time instead of forcing employees to take time off work.
