Communication skillzzzzzz in india....

So my job means a lot of commiunication ( mostly email) & shitloads of patience with indian suppliers....

after 2 yrs of working in the last underdeveloped country in europe for H&M I would say that my patience level is pretty high..( italy BTW LOL)

i remember the meeting with my then to become, colleagues in march last year before coming over to india for the job...where the 1st and as i remember now ONLY question was:

DO YOU HAVE A LOT OF PATIENCE?

i reply happy, YES YES i've lived in italy for 4 yrs, working for H&M there for 2 yrs, NO PROBLEM :)


they looked happy n nodded towards eachother w small content smiles on their faces...

now, after almost a year in india, ITALY should be described as the most developed n simple country in the world....

more bureaucracy, papers, signing n retarded, unnecessary behaviour than india...is impossible to find...

anyhow, just to mail convos from my daily work to helo u to understand.....
