The beginning of the week doesn't start on Monday. It starts on Sunday. Friday and Saturday are the weekend, which is pretty nice for Muslim folk and I assume that's probably the reason why it is that way.
There is no maximum occupancy to moving vehicles. Well, there is, it just doesn't match up with the more American perception of the number of available seats equals the number of seat belts. Just squeeze in. It's all good.
Out of the small number of showers and sinks I have experienced here, I have not yet felt hot water come out from one of them. They all seem to reach a maximum heat of pleasantly cool.
Clothes hooks are also nearly non-existent. I've seen maybe 6 my whole time here.
Oh, and waiting in lines. You can just about forget about that here. Just kind of push your way up to the front with your money held out and don't worry if you cut somebody else in line. You'll literally never order if you're worried about who was there first, or it's his turn not mine. And don't be afraid to interrupt the transaction just before you by ordering before they're done talking. It's all about timing. Like, they're just about to be done and then you say, "I want this or that." 'Please' seems to be an after-thought.
