I constantly forget how incredibly grumpy and rude US customs and TSA is in comparison to the rest of the world

They really hate everybody, especially people who don't speak English or mess up instructions yelled at them as they go by

I inadvertently got a TSA agent fired for poor behavior some years ago in MIA

I guess I've had good luck in Europe and South America for the past two years bc I've found them far more friendly. And clear w instructions

Today's not the first time I've seen an agent raise his voice at someone who didn't understand his directions cuz they didn't speak English. I imagine it ruins that person's day

My experience says otherwise, customs around the world are mostly grumpy, not exclusively TSA, even Japan is sometimes grumpy

I prefer to think of it as 'liking everyone equally'...
