Why Iranians are different in lots of ways

My family and I went to a Persian Restaurant in Sydney yesterday.

The food was really great but this shop like many other shops and businesses in Australia did not have an EFTPOS machine (It's the name of the machine enabling you to pay via your card in Australia).

Now the question is, out of all the companies operating in Australia, why only Iranians have to lack this facility?

Well obviously I haven't been to all the shops in Australia but I have been to many in different areas and every one of them has got the EFTPOS facility.

I have to raise the question again, do we really have to be different to others in everything  we do? Can't we commit ourselves to do business the same way every other business does?

Every time we have to go to a Persian shop specially some Persian restaurants, we have to go to an ATM machine and get some cash. It' so frustrating and unprofessional.

I hope Iranian business owners come to the decision to make sure they have an EFTPOS machine when they open a new business.

Believe it or not, even the Iranian Embassy in Canberra cannot process EFTPOS transactions. Don't know why, so don't ask please.


Another point about Iranian Persian restaurants is that by law in Australia, any restaurant should give you water free of charge. It doesn't have to be bottled water but they have to give you tap water if you ask.

And once again, Persian restaurants in Sydney simply do not bother to give you free water and even worse is the fact that they give you that dirty so-if-you-don't-have-money-to-buy-water-go-somewhere-else look if you ask for tap water in a glass jar. THAT SUCKS man.
If you need to try some Persian food, you can still try Persian restaurants but make sure you carry enough cash with you.
