Best Posts in Thread: its no wonder

The Philippines can be very frustrating at times to say the least but you have to remember that they have their ways and nothing you say or do is going to change that. Best thing to do when you feel the urge to slap someone (and we have all felt that way at some point) is to talk slowly, smile and work with them if they don't know how to help you. Nothing good can come from being confrontational or making them feel ashamed...doing that really only assures your day will be much more difficult. I really wonder what these assholes are thinking they are going to achieve when they act like that. (Even in our home countries those attitudes won't get you far.)

One thing I actually like about the Philippine culture is that if you are kind most people will go out of their way to help you. Some people really need to learn how to make this part of the culture work for them.

I don't know where this comes from. It is completely unacceptable in our home countries to act like that and you most certainly will get kicked out of any business for acting like that in the US (and I suspect the same is true in Australia and most European countries). Where I come from it is not uncommon for businesses to have a "wall of shame" where names and pictures of people who act like fools/assholes get the honor of being placed. Only some serious @ss kissing to the business owner will get your name taken off that list.
