I6MTW Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 I've only been two countries that have a been more than a weeks stay. India and America. So they are the best countries for me. UK, and Switzerland seem to be the best to live. Especially swiss, since it is very peaceful, low crime, no wars, no military,isolation and the natural scenic beauty including the alps.
EnterTheVoid Posted May 30, 2013 Posted May 30, 2013 once upon a time..... I called my korean boss' date=' to call in sick.. he replied, you should come to office and then apply for the leave.[/quote'] Brilliant.
Muloghonto Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 Greatest at what ? There is no singular greatest country in the world, because greatest in its singular form logically leads to perfect. And i can tell you, there is no such thing as a 'perfect country'.
Mariyam Posted May 31, 2013 Posted May 31, 2013 I had a mini-argument and maintained that I am not well enough to travel at all - so may be next time I will follow the rule. Another one - I was working on some time-critical issue at the client site, and this Korean manager was shouting at his Korean subordinate, right next to me. not choti-moti shouting, proper animated and top of the decibels. (check out any Korean drama for sample). I asked him politely to keep the volume down, in return he shouted back at me and said "get out". I said - "ok fine", packed my laptop and went back home. Since I was in different city at client site, I even booked my tickets back to Seoul, and told my Korean boss - "I have been asked to get out, so I am coming".... one of my indian colleague fractured his arm.. he asked his korean mgr that he needs time to recover.. but he told him , "one hand is enough todo the work..come to office frm 2maro" :giggle: Just reading this is so depressing. :(( That explains why all those South Korean white collar workers risk crossing the heavily militarized border and escaping to North Korea- the worker's paradise. :P
