California E&S Insurance

I grew up in the Bay Area and work at Trader Joe’s in SF. I spent the summer in Seattle while working at a TJ’s up there, so I interacted with both communities. People in the bay probably don’t realize it since it’s what we’re used to, but it’s not very friendly overall. 60% of the people I’ve interacted with here are great, but there’s this 30-40% here that really irritate me here. Lots of people can’t be bothered to carry out a conversation with a fellow human. I don’t know if they’re too stressed by work, view a grocery clerk as poor scum not worth talking to, or what, but it gets annoying, especially with the context im about to mention. (Also, I’m not talking about people who don’t speak much English. They’re almost always very friendly anyway) In Seattle, I swear 95% of people were down to earth and happy to talk. They almost all bagged their own groceries too. All were incredibly welcoming even though there are already a bunch of Californians that moved there. it was incredibly eye opening seeing just how friendly and down to earth people were, and it made coming back here harder. I say this having spent significant time in both communities, but even in places I’ve visited multiple times like the Midwest (montana, colorado) and Oregon, people are just way friendlier. People talk to each other and aren’t caught off guard by it. I just wish that were the norm here.
