Rude Americans!
Jan 9^th, 2005, 4:56pm

I lost my traveler's checques and the American rep was so rude to me. I was stuck in the US and could not get back to Paree.

Luckily I found a bakery that sold baquettes (although a bit stale). Que desastre! Merde!

Starbucks does not compare to a good cup of french coffae. Moi!

Americans think the french are rude! We're just more intelligent and more efficient, that is all! I've been extended in NY for a couple of extra days due to losing my traveler's checques.

The thanks we get for giving the US the Statute of Liberty. And this jacke in the boxe call the french fries a different name. What rude Americans! We go out of our way to extend hospitality to Americans. We allow you to copy our fashion, our food, our coffees, and everything else.

The reps in the French Amex travel office are so much nicer by far.

Americans, appreciate your friends, since you only have a few left. George Bush! Que! Desastre! He had better recognize his friends before we turn out backs on the USA for good!

Viva La France!

The French aren't known for their hospitality towards tourists though (no matter where you're from). The language is very romantic and the city (Paree), as well; I must say the language has a nicer sound than other languages. Wee Wee Bonjoiur. Poly vu Fransay?

i could just laugh at this controversy (but I won't), by the time you decide if the French or the American are less or more rude (try getting some Ice Cream at some places in the U.S. and you'll see what i mean) others can only find amusement on how the human element of security on both nations fractures and deteriorates. While you are busy on your pride issues be aware, because others are looking deep into your flaws to bring you down one more time in a big, big way.

People will be people whether they are French or American. I suggest that you complete comment cards to give your feedback. All business establishments who really care about customer service should have a mechanism of giving feedback, no matter what country (or language).
