UK, Ireland /
All That Manners Business [I'm Polish, moved to UK as an au pair.] [87]
In the US I had to obey their rules saying "good morning", "how're you" and other questions which are nobody was going to answer (unlike to Russia
There arent any rules, Shelley is correct we dont ask everybody we see how thier
doing? Good morning is usually reserved for friends, co-workers or if you happen to go to a restaurant.
Some people dont say anything, some might tell you to get lost if they dont know you?
but I don't have to shake anybody's hand. It's another country and as I see it, you should treat their cultural values like you want yours
If somebody gives you thier hand to shake and you dont do it, thats considered an insult, of course I wont do those gangbanger handshakes.
In the US it's ok to took off shoes in some public and put their stinky feet somewhere near you,
Thats only at the beach, unless I`m missing some Kentucky tradition?
Russians blow their noses into sink which in its
alot nastier than saying Good morning to somebody:)
Do they do that before or after washing the dishes...lol?
Im going to ask nicely - please don't bracket UK with US...we don't like, at all, :-)
Yes Sasha please do this:)
