American in the UK.
I've had sexual harassment training in the US, and a lot of standards are different between the two countries.
At least 5 things happen at work every day, that if they happened at one of the companies I worked for in the US, the people involved would be brought to HR.
I find workmates in the UK to be more matey at work, where as in the US, you are co-workers at work, and mates only when you leave work.
