Tell whoever serves you that you're new here

“Admitting out loud that you're the one who doesn't know how things work feels like handing over a weakness. It is usually the thing that makes a stranger drop their guard.”

The Recipe

  1. At the next place you buy something, tell whoever serves you that you've just moved to the city.
  2. Ask them what newcomers always get wrong here.
  3. Take the answer without defending yourself, even if it stings.
