That's a great answer NALEM
Yes, a good reminder that European can mean so many different things, as can USA. It must be nice to work in France, but I can understand why multi-national corps prefer to setup shop elsewhere when possible. Germans are capable of putting most others to shame.

Germans - not the easiest to approach with new business opportunities, but when they agree to do business with you, they do.
North Americans - specifically Americans are absolutely horrible with follow up. With that said, so am I. Next Americans are very distracted by doing other things counter productive to work, like checking personal emails, on the phone with friends and family, posting personal comments on FB, and surfing YouTube for interesting things to watch.
This has been my lifetime experience. Am I wrong?
