I have always been made anxious by the prospect of workmen coming to the house, the pandemic hasn't helped obviously. So these 2 guys came this AM to replace some windows (I work from home but I didn't think I could work with all this going on so I took off). I was actually relieved when they turned out to be immigrants. I don't know just where they are from but my best guess would be Iran given appearance and the fact that they both wear beards suggests likely a Muslim culture. Had they been typical white Americans I would be much more self conscious that they would sense my being different.
DAE have similar feelings?
Yes. Most immigrants where I live are Eastern European or Asian. Mostly hardworking, polite, friendly and efficient. I even had an Eastern European delivery driver knock on my window in the evening to give me a parcel because by then I'd locked my front gates for the night. He was determined to deliver the parcel and not give up.
Whereas the white, English workers tend to be rude, lazy and angry. Many English people are very angry these days, I don't know why.
Obviously this is a VAST generalisation, but I agree with you.
