@Jiro: I’m guilty for that. I experienced that sa Tokyo Cafe sa MoA when few of my colleagues went there. After paying the bills, the lady said “Arigatou Gozaimasu”. I responded “Do Itashi Mashite”. I left her scratching her head. I felt guilty afterwards…
I’m not sure with the other groceries, but I’ve encountered one Jap store that had a Filipino cashier AND a Japanese employee working at the same time. Makes sense, actually.
Hi new here but I really love beerkada comics. And funny how I can relate to the jokes as I’m currently studying Japanese. Ima nihonggo o benkyoshite imasu. And love how the doggy’s named Misa-misa! L Lawliet ga daisuki!
Someone asked what irrashimase means. It’s actually “irrashaimase”, the equivalent of “welcome” but only used in commercial establishments. No response is required to it.
