Milwaukeean German

Always funny the German words floating around in the vocabulary of Milwaukeeans...

yesterday, I'm paying for my gasoline inside instead of by credit card outside because its too cold to locate my credit card in my wallet outside so I'm waiting in line with at least four people in front of me at the counter inside where a cashier of Indian appearance and accent is chatting with customers as they pay and the conversation repeats itself nearly EXACTLY for every customer...

cashier: "hello! how are you doing today my friend?"
customer: "oh, pretty good, just fine and you?"
cashier: "wunderbar buddy!!" (irregardless of whether a male or female customer)

this made me almost bust out laughing when he proudly exclaimed "wunderbar buddy!!" to the girl in front of me who clearly thought it was as funny as I did and tried to stifle a laugh...

so next my conversation went:

cashier: "hello! how are you doing today my friend?"
me: "all good, all good, and I bet your doing wonderful today..."
cashier: "wunderbar buddy!! have a good day!"

Hey, i was wondering if u took the TEFL course, and if u can tell me something about it.
i also want to take the course, in Egyt, but im not sure how credible it is. I dont want to pay a down payment and then get to Egypt and nothing. Just find out that i was conned out of 500 dollars and paid for a ticket to Egypt with nowhere to stay. do you have any advice for me?
