So I was going to talk about this earlier but I forgot about it until now, when I am noming on some hash rounds from Burger King. The other day, the husband and I went to McDonald's off base. It was the best McDonalds experience in my entire life.
The fries were fresh, the meat properly seasoned, and the whole restaurant seemed to sparkle. I remarked to David that I thought this was the best McDonald's I had ever had, and he let me in a cultural secret.
I guess the Japanese culture says that customers are gods. They would do anything to prevent their customers from being unhappy. Therefore, they value quality, and not quantity. They are fast, and efficient. They are polite.
They are what most American McDonalds (and other food workers) should be. There are many Japanese people who work at the burger king and other shops on base, and I'll be honest, I notice a huge difference in the two cultures when it comes to service.
