Before I came here I knew the cultural differences would be vast, but I did not realize how vast. Today at work I was talking to the guys and we talked about me and some of my personality traits that don't jive with the Indian life style. I didn't do anything to make any of them upset or mad (at least I do not think I did), but they were telling me how some of the stuff I did they were not accustomed too.
I am going to try harder to tone it down. I may have not upset anyone yet, but with my luck it is bound to happen.
Everything has been going really well here. The team has been learning very well and they are very eager to learn some more. It is like they are milking me for as much information they can possibly get. By the time I leave here in three months my brain will be dry from all the squeezing they are doing. :-)
We have not gotten sick any more which is good. Mo and I have decided to be a little more ballsy with the food we eat because we figure our stomachs are now used to the food so we should be okay. Osama and Rodel do not feel the same way. I have been eating the free food work provides for the employees and I have not noticed any problems.....YET...knock on wood.
We come back from work really late and nothing is open and I get hungry so I have been ordering room service every day. Today, five minutes after I get back I get a call from the hotel people and they ask me if I am ready to have my food brought up. I didn't even order it and they just knew. How cool is that?
I have nothing else to say....shocking, I know.

I'm curious as to which one of your personality traits rubbed them off the wrong way.
