People are brainwashed because they are required, as part of their job, to be friendly to customers? LOL.

Actual businesses typically have decent customer service, they have to, there's too much competition. If my bank treats me like shit I'll have no problem strolling across the street and giving my money to a different bank. It isn't being "fake", its being polite, there is no reason to be rude to someone you're dealing with. And often enough, the person is a very friendly type to begin with, so it isn't as fake as it may seem.

Here's the perfect way to see the difference (I've actually had many discussions about this). Go to an American Restaurant owned by second generation Americans, the service is great. Very polite, always there to help out, they fill your drinks before you even ask. Then go to a foreign Restaurant (in the United States) owned by immigrant families, say a sushi place, and the service is absolutely horrible. You practically have to beg to get your order taken. You see your server 3 times throughout the meal; taking your order, delivering your food, delivering your bill.
