Cultural differences
Submitted by jissou on June 10, 2004 - 6:26am.
Hello,
I am a French citizen and have been living in the USA for 7 years now.
I always find very interesting what poeple think about culture differences between our 2 countries.
Let me start with one.
Maybe it is only from my personnal experience but, as an engineer in France, it is impossible to go home at night before 7:00pm.
Try to leave at 5pm and everybody is going to think that work is not your priority...here, if I am done my work I can get home by 5...at least from time to time and without being judged...
What do you think?
Other examples that might be true or false?
