- hocuspocus 9y agoNot all of them. I miss working with Finns.
- geertj 9y agoLol, yes, I always loved working with the Finns. I am Dutch myself, so pretty direct, but the Finns take it up to a different level. I remember a business meeting for which I traveled to Helsinki. After a 1 minute intro, our customer spoke uninterrupted for 20 minutes, explaining in great detail why our product completely sucked. It was very useful actually, because the feedback was factual and demonstrated a great understanding of the problem. There was no time wasting or sugarcoating.
