I'm not speaking of such things as cultural taboos but more how one culture may be more accepting of delays, length of time needed to iron out problems etc... than others. Being Western, we have, for better or worse, grown used to having things how we want them, when we want them! Food for thought.

Doesn't mean I'm not annoyed at the state of Cliffs of Dover all of a sudden, mind, but it could explain the amount of rage on the forum at times.

When all is said and done... whether fanboy or critic... we are a right spoiled bunch really. lol
Yes the cultural differences absolutely need to be considered as well. Spot on!

Yep. I remember, a fair few years back now, I worked with a bunch of guys from (What was just then beginning not to be) Yugoslavia. Things would go wrong, as they do in any workplace, and my fellow Englishmen would get quite irate and the usual prejudice one hears about Slavs started being bandied around.... the amusing thing is, the job always got done! By the Yugoslavians, no less! Whilst they were slowly making their way over to the problem area, we were all too busy moaning, complaining, having mini-nervous breakdowns and ripping our hair out. In the UK people have to look busy... if they don't look busy then they, obviously, aren't. Truth being told all that is really happening is us English are just losing years from our lifespans for no good reason.

Anyway... I'm off to burst a blood vessel now as I ordered a book 2 weeks ago and it still hasn't been delivered...... RAGE!!!!
