You arrive in a new place and you can’t get the ticket machine to work. A queue forms behind you and you are struggling to find the right number of coins because the machine doesn’t take notes. It’s a different currency and you need to look closely at each coin to figure out its denomination. You can feel the bodies tensely impatient behind you. Irritated by your incompetence.
