What's the rudest country you've interacted with business wise?

[420seriouscat69]

I came across a Jewish bronx candidate a few months ago and she was the meanest b i've ever come a crossed. I'm not saying they're all like that tho.

Americans are by far the worst

Thanks Luke

well here's some of that great American collaboration technique

[Dugout DickStone]

New Yorkers are amazing because they aren't usually intimidated by my looks and that's refreshing

[Spracne]

New Yorkers are great. Not sure what's wrong with you people.

And I don't interact with countries. I interact with people. It would not be very charitable to stereotype a country based on how one of its citizens acts. Likewise, it would be uncharitable to stereotype a person based on how you think about their country. Don't fall into these fallacies.

That said, Indians are kindly, but they're either dumb or lazy. Can't figure out which.

[420seriouscat69]

To be fair, my CEO stereotyped her own ethnicity before I ever thought twice about it. Then over time, I was like "damn", these bastards really love to negotiate over some of the dumbest crap.

america is great because people are so different in all parts of the country. you can be in savannah and someone is being super mean to you and you don't even know it and think they love you. and then you're in philly and someone is being nice and it seems like they are in your face and want to fight. it takes a little bit to figure it out.

[Mrs. Gooch]

Japanese are way too formal.

[The Big Train]

Most of my international business interaction is solely email based.  So it’s really hard to figure out if someone is being rude or not.

Same with India

[puniraptor]

I have a limited international business sample size, but America by far.

people in the midwest are the most likely to be snitchass busybodies

[Tobias]

india people sound like they know what they want

[Brock Landers]

I have a weekly call or WebEx with people in India and another one with Americans. The Americans are total PITA.

[puniraptor]

americans are always trying to bigtime you or intimidate you into getting their way. quite insufferable, once you have experienced an alternative.

Everything is negotiable in the culture. Just have to be ready for it. Set margins in everything to allow for the negotiations.

[Institutional Control]

I work with people in India all day every day and I can't think of a single instance of someone from there being rude.
