There is nothing wrong with it, but it makes you think about how people see you. It happened many times at the grocery, restaurant, cruise, and mall. Sometimes I will feel insulted, but now I feel proud that they know that my race is known to be workers, and they are happy to help, approachable, and naturally friendly.
