Nice video wich shows the different psycologies between Russian people and American people.
Nice video witch shows the different psychologies between Russian people and American people.
One like “Luxury” another one are “Practical” .
I don’t have preference between Luxury and Practical, all depend about what we are talking.
And I’m not here to blame one side or another one… I’m Russian, and living in (Canada now), but love reading American business books and I have huge respect for them.
I think this it’s why both country have difficulties to understand each other. Russia was attacked for so long, we learn how to build think “practical and easy to use”, like Aka-47. And …since we didn’t have time to recover from one crises to another one…there wasn’t time for make thing pretty. 😊
In fact, if you go now in Russia…you will see, due to economic stability ( if you compare with Soviet union), you will see people love be “well dress”.
Also, it’s very important to for men, to “make your boots shine”. No joke…once I was in Russia, and wanted to go outside with dirty boots to buy something in store. And my friend stop me, and told that I have to clean my boots, or I go no where. And he was dead serious.
But America (including Canada), are far from “fight zone” , and had time to build pretty stuff. And it’s nice…to walk where thing are pretty, comfortable. But it also, make people stop thinking at some points.
Example… once at work, we need a “hammer” for a certain task. We didn’t had one. So my boss told me, “J… we can’t do it”.
I was thinking she’s joking…but no she was serious.
Then… I pick up to part woods, and use it as a hammer…and the job was done.
But my colleagues, was surprise that we “could do that” ….but for me , this was normal…
let me know what you think about :)
