    Everyone is Asian and I'm the only white person who works there, so our cultures are different.

    So Friday night somebody pulls into the parking lot and the guy in the front shouts "Look who's here!" and I respond "Punchinello, Punchinello..."

    Couldn't even get a laugh. I guess they never heard that song as a child.

    Are they all immigrant Asians? Canadian-born Asians would relate to you.

    It seems Asian immigrants are blamed for everything nowadays. like the realest property prices which is rising everywhere in the world (especially in big cities like New york, Paris, tokyo etc.) , but only in Canada they blame Asians or "foreigners" for that.
