If you ever have to do business with Australians it may take some time to understand their strange idiosyncrasies. Greg Davies is an Australian living deep in the heart of Oklahoma and has put together a great post that provides you with a cultural background on Australians and our ways of thinking.
It is a must read for anyone wanting to understand why we are the way we are. Especially check the section on beer and Fosters.
Thanks to Meg Tsiamis.
I prefer baptism by fire – worked for me! Plus I still have the copy of “The Penguin Book of Australian Slang” given to me by a Mr. James over a decade ago that comes in handy on occasion…
