> You have to learn other cultures' norms if you want to live or work with them. It goes both ways. You also need to recognize ambiguity and ask for confirmation when you see it. Even in the US people will get confused by 12AM/12PM; when you see either of those times you should double check to see what the person meant. On the other hand, the person setting the time should also have recognized the possible confusion and clarified (i.e. 12 noon or 12 midnight).
