The most ‘un-Australian’ behaviours are slammed by fed-up locals – and you’re probably guilty of at LEAST one

Aussies share the behaviors they deem most ‘un-Australian’ – and many are guilty of committing at least one act.

From being rude to wait staff to not waving at fellow drivers on a country road, men and women are venting their frustrations about the common things they think go against what it means to be Aussie.

Many criticized people who use American words like “sidewalk” or “trunk,” while others said they were outraged when a cafe charges for tomato sauce or requires a mandatory tip.

‘What behavior would you consider un-Australian? One would be treating the wait staff and cleaners like s***,” someone asked in a post on Reddit, which attracted hundreds of responses.

“You don’t wave while driving and someone let you go,” one user replied, while another replied that those who don’t wave when passing another driver on a rural road are non-Australian.

‘Litter. Save your trash until you come across a bloody trash can,” one man said.

‘Taking things too seriously. You know someone is going to call you out for it. Just relax,” a third wrote.

Standing in line, not returning your cart at the shops and not taking salad or meat to a barbecue were also dismissed as un-Australian actions.

“I never said she will be right about something that will definitely not be right,” one user said.

‘I don’t thank the bus driver. I see too much of it in people who just moved here from abroad and haven’t quite picked up the local etiquette yet,” wrote a second.

“Joining rounds and then abandoning them when it’s your turn to buy a round,” a third commented.

Mandatory tipping, leaving litter behind, not returning your cart at the shops and not taking a salad or meat to a barbecue were also labeled as un-Australian acts.

“Joining rounds and then dropping out when it’s your turn to buy a round,” one Aussie responded and another said: “Don’t stay left on escalators or sidewalks”

‘Charging for sauces – I own a cafe and have never and never will charge for sauce. It’s completely un-Australian. Do you want more sauce? No problem. Just ask at the counter and they will get it for you. I’ll give you some sauce if you want,” someone added.

People have also criticized shops, restaurants and cafes that force or ‘push’ customers to tip, and another said not saying ‘hope’ often makes someone un-Australian.

“Being a sinker,” said one Australian.

“Not understanding what someone means when they say ‘yes no’ or ‘no yes’,” replied a second.

“Calling something by its American name,” a third wrote, adding that words like gas station, elevator, sidewalk, crane or trunk down under are no problem.

“Don’t stay left on escalators or sidewalks,” someone added.
