Re: [建議]可以給我一些ideas嗎?
: 由於是在佛州，有很多移民是來自中南美洲，我發現他們對時間的概念真的不一樣。
I have a funny story about concepts of time.
I have worked for a Floridian company.
From my experiences, I realized that
Americans have interesting usage about time.
For example, one of the programmers said he needs to borrow my computer
for TWO MINUTES.
I said, by two minutes you mean half an hour, right?
He paused 3 seconds, and replied, "yes."
Another time, my coworker said wait a second, but in fact, I have waited for
3-5 minutes for her....
The worst example is that
one day my boss said, could you search this item in the database for me?
I said, yes, it will take me 10 minutes to write codes to do that.
To my huge surprises, my boss started to yell at me, "NO! I AM NOT
GONNA WAIT FOR YOU FOR A WHOLE MORNING!"
LOL.
Even though Americans' expression about time is funny, they are
very time-sensitive.
My coworkers will feel very guilty if they are late to work.
So make sure whether they said 10AM sharp or not.
Sharp means on time. =D
