@LUmutoniwase @Nadia_MUGUNGA1 when we were still using cash (not MoMo) I used to have coffee shops waitresses literally running behind me thinking I forgot some money ........ (true story) which made me understand that very little people tip here - as in some countries its "imposed" in your bill !!!!
English

My honest guess? Because customer service is often not treated as a priority. Employees are usually trained to follow procedures, but not always encouraged or rewarded to engage warmly with customers.
Add low wages, repetitive work, and weak accountability, and you end up with service that can feel efficient but impersonal.
Of course, that's not true everywhere, but it may explain part of what you're experiencing.

Why do cashiers in various shops, supermarkets, etc etc in Kigali never greet you even less smile at you - sometimes they are on their phones or talking with a friend/staff and they don't even look at you ?? What am I missing here ?? Serious and honest question here !!!

@georgesmhermann @Nadia_MUGUNGA1 He tried to deny at first saying it was honest mistake. I told him you are either a cheat or bad at your job. Either way it’s not acceptable. He took the lesson I’m sure and hope that doesn’t happen again 2/2

@georgesmhermann @Nadia_MUGUNGA1 I was at Boho for dinner and my waiter tried to sneak something on my bill.
I caught it and he got so scared that I was going to tell the owner.
Service industry earn low wages and they don’t get tips often. (I was going to tip and he tried to pull that) so I didn’t tip 1/2

@BrantfordBoomer “If” is a nice game to play.
Maybe true , maybe not.
What we do know is Carney has us in a recession. That is a fact.
English

@LUmutoniwase yes, even where am from (Antwerp Belgium), whether you are a Jew or not Kigali is really safe, seen the changes since 1997 ....... amazing country !!!!!
English

@georgesmhermann I hear that constantly and have experienced it first hand.
I live in Canada and without a doubt Rwanda is leagues ahead in terms of community, safety and cleanliness.
I often see children walking home from school without supervision in Kigali. Would never happen in my city.
English

@LUmutoniwase Kigali and Kigalians make me feel at home so I love it here ......... 🙏🏼❤️, after +- 10 countries on the continent - Rwanda is really in another league - especially as a Jew I feel safer here then anywhere I lived in visited in the west

@russellcrowe Sorry, but use of the 'f' word was quite rude and totally gratuitous. Likewise for the word 'dick'. Simply (& even sternly) saying, 'I shall only sign if nobody pushes and stays calm' would have sufficed. None of the members of that crowd seemed aggressive to me. Be grateful

@LUmutoniwase @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o Yeh but you say its good and the same as their hippotesting. What are you even nagging about?

Rocket Lab Space Structures Complex Update
May 22, 2026
Middle River, Maryland
A crack has formed on the Neutron interstage that has been on the stand for several weeks. Checking from several angles, it appears the crack goes most, if not all, of the way around.
Cranes have arrived on-site which usually indicates they will be moving the hardware, likely back inside for further analysis.

@Gabberocksolid @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o My definition?
They sent the tweet out.. not me. lol
English

@LUmutoniwase @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o It is good by your definition. It broke when it wasnt supposed to and they claim its not gonna cause any delays. Only time will tell if that holds true or not but they clearly have to adjust their calculations based of this.
English

@Gabberocksolid @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o So let me get this right… they tested the hungry hippo to 125% and that was good to go but this is not?
English

@LUmutoniwase @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o So you think they are happy with that when their estimates where wrong?
A complete understanding of the materials and their limits is key to success, hitting an arbitrary "qualification" number is just pr.
English

@LUmutoniwase @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o It didnt score anything, their calculations was just wrong. Hopefully after adjusting their model to reality it is still solid flightready hardware.
This is why you make designs with big safetymargins.
English

@Gabberocksolid @nz482648 @RocketLab @spacepat_o Dude, it scored 125/100. Of course they will say we wish it would have been more.

To the young people of #Rwanda, being young is not enough. You cannot afford to waste any opportunity. Do not let the fear of failure or taking risks stand in the way of who you can be. Claim your rightful place in the world, no one will hand it to you

@ValueInIdeas No, he was about to say “lots of companies” but forgot rocket lab and added them in before he said companies…

@Lactualite How about they stop depriving the billions the send overseas

Le REER et le CELI privent le fisc de milliards de dollars chaque année tout en accroissant les inégalités au sein de la population. Et ce, même s’il n’a jamais été prouvé que ces programmes augmentent vraiment l’épargne. lactualite.com/lactualite-aff…
