Chris - was that "Tschuss" supposed to be the platdeutsch word for goodbye?
If so, It is usually pronounced more like "juice", with a hard "J", and
comes from the Northern German colloquial language called "plat", and
probably has its root in the French word "adieu". You hear it all the time
when speaking with the "natives" from Holland over to East of Lubeck.
Just a bit of arcane language info....
