Imagine you have arranged a meeting at 4 p.m. What time should you expect your foreign business colleagues to arrive? If they are German, they'll be exactly on time.

Therefore, these is some small advice in order not to behave badly abroad. In France, you shouldn't sit down in a cafard until you've shaken hands with everyone you know. In Afghanistan, you'd better spend at least 5 minutes saying hello. In Pakistan, you mustn't wink. It's offensive. In Middle East you must never use the left hand for greeting, eating, drinking, or smoking. Also, you should care not to admire anything in your hosts' home. They will feel that they have to give it to you. In Russia, you must match your hosts drink for drink or they will think you are unfriendly. In Thailand, you should clasp your hands together and lower your head and your eyes when you greet someone. In America, you should eat your hamburger with both hands and as quickly as possible. You shouldn't try to have a conversation until it is eaten.
