comment
Obnoxious Entitled Housewife: One of Jules' customers is an obnoxious, middle-aged white woman with a blonde bob who's always on her phone and is allegedly named Karen according to them. She first enters their bodega asking for some sunscreen, but even if they remind her that there's none available, she storms out and calls their shop "dingy". She even comes back the second time to insult the bodega after the new supermarket is built.

comment
Practically Different Generations: Two of Jules' first customers are Sofia and her little brother Marco. Jules initially mistakes the former for the latter's mother because Sofia's "not that much older than [Jules]" (who's 15) while Marco's a little kid.

comment
Ambiguous Gender: Jules' face is never shown and their name is short for "Julian" instead of "Julius" or "Julia". They're hardly referred to with pronouns other than Tristan using "they/them" for them once.

But Thou Must!: Subverted. While most of your choices are just the same thing but said in three different languages, how you use code-switching with your customers will influence how they interact with you and your shop, which impacts the bodega's reputation.

Hipster: Micah is a hipster with the typical artisan look who becomes one of your regulars at the bodega. He starts out asking you for a kombucha and some Spanish lessons, to your confusion, but with the right choices, you eventually warm up to him.
