Hey all!
I've been doing a lot of writing in my other blog, about cultural differences, but I thought that this little link (open it in a second window . . . you'll see why later) was better suited for the personal blog. I've been dealing with this stuff a lot, and yes. I understand these. I'll give you a little overview:
Now let's run through the pictures (email/my blog on the left - other blog on the right, if you care about my opinion):
My favorites are:
Contacts
Queues
Parties
Definition of Beauty
Handling Problems
Moods and Weather
The Boss
What's Trendy
The Child
Perceptions of Each Others' Culture (though the Germans forgot the fortune cookie - which, by the way, doesn't exist here)
I disagree with:
Way of Life (Chinese will cheat each other until they're all broke - they view it as, "If your'e stupid enough to let me cheat you, then you deserve to be cheated")
Anger/Displeasure (They whine just as much as westerners)
View of Myself (Partially - the elderly may be as described, but ever hear of the "little emperor syndrome")
Life of the Elderly (Old people in China LOVE dogs! They just have grandkids and dogs.)
The others are true, but didn't strike me as particularly funny.
Don't get some of them? Don't worry, and feel free to email me to ask for clarification :-).
