No, the odd ones are the Poles and Indians that are going on vacation with their co-workers....seriously.
- r00fus 11y agoYeah, though I have swung by coworkers homes when visiting a new area where we have no family...
- _jgdh 11y agoAre you missing the point of the article? According to the author, Poles and Indians consider their co-workers their friends. Americans in general don't. His other point is that Americans used to think differently, so Americans working today would consider people from 30-40 years ago to be odd ones too.
- mikerichards 11y agoNo, you seem to have missed my point. I find it strange that so many percentages of Poles and Indians are going on vacation with their co-workers. That's a separate thing from "being friends".
- stuxnet79 11y agoNot sure why you are making that distinction. The implication is there. You just don't go on "vacation" with anybody.
- zzalpha 11y agoThere a billion of them and 300 million of you. You're the odd ones. That's just math.
