@celinaacotedeparis: If you know me, you know that I LOVE France and the French. But coming from the US and having lived in the UK, the line/queue culture here is still shocking to me sometimes. It’s definitely a cultural difference but it’s one I struggle with. That being said, I love my life here and SO MANY other aspects of French culture. #cultureshock #culturaldifference #french #francais #france
WE HAVE HAD CONVERSATIONS ABOUT THIS. My biggest pet peeve. In elementary school at like 5 you are taught how to line up and line etiquette so French people not having this ingrained in them was always so strange. Love the French but this one thing drives me insane

I remember when I was still living in France mostly when I was a kid people were getting into fights sometimes because of this 😭 I hated it! Now that I live in the UK I don’t see it anymore haha. People are really respectful with queuing and I love it 😁

I heard a Portuguese person saying queuing for things is a British colonization thing. They prefer to get to know each other and learn each other’s faces and know who is ahead of you without forming a line. I never thought about it before honestly - coming from a British colony 😅
