Reddit user labels Indians in the US as ‘impatient, rude, and demanding’: sparks debate | Trending

A Reddit post has ignited a debate about the behaviour of Indian customers in the U.S., with a user alleging that they are often “impatient, rude, and demanding.” The post, shared in the r/AskIndia subreddit, describes the user’s experience working in customer service and dealing with Indian-born customers. A Reddit user shared an ordeal with an Indian customer. (Pexel) “I work customer service, and any Indian I come in contact with, they are impatient, rude, demanding, and treat me like I’m stupid even though I’m in college,” the user wrote. He further claimed that these customers “think they can walk all over the staff and demand free crap.” Also read: ‘Normalise Indian hate’: Elon Musk’s DOGE employee resigns after rac posts surface – Report The Redditor cited a specific incident where he struggled to understand a customer’s accent while taking an order. “Like one instance, I was taking an Indian guy’s order and asked him to repeat himself ‘cause I couldn’t understand through his thick accent. He gets mad, rolls his eyes, and says, ‘No wonder you work here.’” The user, offended the remark, responded, “EXCUSE ME??? I work at a café, and the way, once again, it’s a part-time job while I finish college, so buddy, don’t come at me like that.” The post quickly gained traction, with many expressing mixed opinions. Some agreed with the Redditor’s frustration, while others argued that generalising an entire group based on individual experiences was unfair.

So when they become rich, they let out their frustration and anger.” A third wrote, “They think they’ve done Ganga Ishnan going out of India. Now they’ve become American.” Also read: Dog disguised as lion stuns onlookers standing on moving jeep’s bonnet in Visakhapatnam. Watch
