European lad who've traveled to the various places in US and Canada for both business and leisure. Customs officers were never rude or similar to me in Canada, but Miami airport (KMIA) probably had the worst customer facing employees I've ever encountered in an airport, loud, rude and unhelpful. Asked for directions and got told I should learn how to search for information myself...

Miami is something else. I had an officer threaten to deport me because I answered his question "do you have alcohol with you?" with "no, but I have some in my check-in luggage", which was apparently a great show of disrespect. The actual dictatorships and enemy countries I've been to had friendlier welcomes. Baffling.
