And when you speak to an unknown Japanese person on the phone, either by you calling them or they calling you, they assume you are Japanese.
You go into a business establishment and no one bats an eye or acts nervously when you order something, ask for something, ask a question, etc.

Exactly!! I've had people very confused on the phone when I finally tell them my name. They make me repeat it 3 or 4 times until they clock that I'm not Japanese. Very satisfying.
