There were almost 2 pages of canandian talks :)


Yeah, kpro, that is how i have always seen it. I am from everywhere. I was born in california, but i have lived in germany a full 3rd o fmy life (2 different occasions), and lived in washington and indiana.

A big problem i had with a lot of people i met from other countries was that they would insist that in their country you had to do things their way, because it was their culture (and often had no respect for ours). Those same people in the opposite setting would refusde to make any changes, claiming they were holding on to their culture..... :rolleyes:


People suck the world over....

Urge, we have a similar issue with the company i work for. There is one particular guy who uses his "inexperience" with english as an excuse to skirt policies. He has been in this country for almost a decade, and actually understands you just fine until you tell him something he doesnt want to hear. Then he gets a really stupid look on his face and his ability to understand english fades away.
