Na....New Yorkers arent rude....!!?

New Yorkers aren't rude, their straightforward which can be mistaken as being rude. It's a big city with millions of people, you have to be pushy and it can get tiresome to be nice to everyone as there is always people in your face. Also, if you notice cashiers in NY are fast!!! No convo, they ring you up fast. If you go to a smaller town, they chit chat a-lot:) Just my observation, I spend tons of time in NYC and notice a huge difference when I come back home.
