A friend of mine moved from California to Germany/Bavaria, where I’m native. She told me the most irritating habit of germans for her was that germans take everything literally. When she got to know someone new she often used to say “It was nice to meet you! Let’s have dinner sometime!”, merely as a phrase to be friendly, then was baffled how many people took it worldly and responded asking for her phone number or directly suggesting an exact date for having dinner together. The positive part of that misunderstanding was that she in fact gained friends very quickly, cause she ended up throwing a dinner party for a lot of people 😂

For me as an German, if i had to wait 20 minutes, i would be already gone. Waiting is for me really a bad thing, i have a lot to do some days and waiting makes all even more stressful, because the time i have waited could have been used more for productivity. Also, if you have an Interview for a Job or apprentenceship, never come late, even the smallest minute could cause a negative opinion on you.

In manchen Geschäften werden die Kassierer nach Kassier-Geschwindigkeit bezahlt. Das heißt, wenn man als Kunde so langsam einpackt, dass der Kassierer oder der nächste Kunde warten muss, dann kostet man den Kassierer Geld. Dazu kommt, dass viele Kunden, bei längeren Kassenschlangen nicht warten wollen und ihre Einkäufe einfach stehen lassen. Um das zu verhindern, müssen die Kassierer schneller kassieren. Weil viele deutsche Kunden das wissen, beeilen sie sich und packen schneller ein. Es ist einfach ein Zeichen von Höflichkeit den Kassierern gegenüber.

Actually only at Aldi supermarket they are very fast and if people take their shopping cars with them one can go through the cashier, even in a qeue with 8 people in front of you , quite fast . At these markets one can´t load the goods as fast as they register . Note that Aldi cashiers got very slowly after they started with the scanning system. Before they all had the prices memorized and use to be even faster ... I always lose when this battle . However all other markets are slow or very slow .

Some big stores take credit card such as REWE, Galeria Kaufhof, H&M, IKEA, airport stores, etc. 5)The age to consume alcohol is lower than the USA 6)Bag your own groceries and pay for a paper bag if you don’t have your own with you. 7)No air conditioning 8)Bicycles are more common 9)Stores are closed on Sunday 10)Both new and very old architecture. Very beautiful. 11)Regional beer culture differs 12)The people are some of the best you’ll ever meet. 13)Recycling is a big deal 14)Soccer (Football) Culture is also a big deal 15)If you are a resident, you need to pay the Television/Radio tax 16)The universities are tuition-free 17)Christmas markets are the best thing ever!

Sounds like you had a nice stay. The Christmas Markets differs from region to region in some you can find also old craft and also medieval markets. Christmas time is one of the most beautiful times in Germany. Did you learn German? I am asking because we have a lot of foreign students at my university too and mostly they are English native speakers from Pakistan, South Africa or India and they had huge problems with our language. Most of them told me it is really hard for them moreover to deal with the different kinds of dialect we all have.

Mia Heller Yes, I did learn (some) German. I was only there for four months. I mostly learned from my German friends at my university. I had Duolingo however, this wasn’t very practical. Google Translate is helpful for quick reference. Also, KZfaq programs like Easy German and others are good. I had no experience with the language before my arrival. I learned as I went along. English was the common language spoken with the international students. The students tended to enjoy my American accent. I tried to speak German at shops, restaurants, train stations, etc. I really tried to speak the German language as much as I could. I wanted to be a good resident of the Federal Republic of Germany and really appreciate the culture and nation that was educating me, for free, during the duration of my abroad semester. As for dialects, I also noticed this. Sometimes I’d ask for clarification. Often, if the person was a secondary English speaker, they’d cut me off and speak in English. I went to Zürich once and I had to speak English the entire time because I didn’t understand the Swiss Germans. In the future, when I travel back to Germany, I’ll at least know more than the average tourist.

In Germany, renewing a prescription can take half a day as it isn’t possible to book an appointment and you just have to sit and wait until they have time. Also, the local council will only write to my husband although I own 50% of our house and am in charge of bills and maintenance. On the upside, I only pay half the membership fee to our local shooting club that my husband does because I am just a poor little woman (who earns twice the salary he does) 😂

I lived in Germany as an exchange student in 2001. I stayed with 2 different families over a 6 month period, because the the first family requested I be transferred. The first family was in more suburban Achen-Baden. They were kind to me and took me to many famous and fancy places and were very wealthy. but would get angry at me for using a single towel per shower and leaving lights on. They couldn't understand why I would want to stay in my room all the time (I was 17 and in culture shock, going to school in another country). The second family was a single mother and her son in Hamburg. They let me do whatever I wanted and took me to family get together where we played video games and drank brandy. Both were learning experiences for me. One thing I learned, is that Germans are not all the same.

It's just an urban myth about green light discipline in Germany. I was shocked seeing locals in Frankfurt am Main how completely disregard mostly strassenbahn lights. As soon as cars start slowing down on intersection, people walk on the street. And if there is no any car at the moment, nobody waits for green light. Police ignores much more serious things there, like drunken and drugged people sleeping on the streets, just to care about pedestrians being careless. And one more thing, almost no farradfahrer wear helmet.

I’m from the U.K. and I love it how Germans obey traffic rules. Here in the U.K. hardly anyone does, and it gets really irritating. It’s so relaxing in Germany to drive and everyone does what you expect them to do.

Basically it wasn't the imported American service culture that screwed up their business, but non-competitive prices. I mean, we have Aldi and Lidl here, which is the benchmark, and even the standard supermarket chains like Rewe offered cheaper stuff.
