Culture Shock

I am sure that Indian students who have gone abraod for studies have been briefed enough about this topic, and am sure both the students and professionals who have settled abroad have felt this when they returned to India after a long time..well, here are my 2 cents worth of culture shock incidents (limiting myself to India -USA - India)

As soon as you land in USA
- Driving on the right side of the road (obvious)
- Electric Switches (work the other way around)
- Shower curtains have to be put inside the bath tub
- If you are in small cities, every one annoyingly saying Hello, Hi, Wassup, How you doing?
- If you are in big cities, Indians staring at you like you are invading their territory
- People saying thanks, excuse me, bless you every now and then
- A wierd look when a guy puts his arm around another guy
- A wierd look when 2 people stand close to each other
- Concept of returning things to stores within 30 days and get the full money back
- The wierd rule of having J silent in some words like Jalapino and X silent in some words like Mexico
- Utter confusion of replacing Z in words where normally we tend to use S
- Using double negatives in sentences ex. I aint saying nothing
- Getting used to the wierd concept of paying even for incoming calls in Cell phones and night time free minutes

As soon as you return back to India
- Thanking bus conductor for giving you a ticket or a change of 50 paise and getting the wierd look
- Saying Hi for the policeman in the airport and getting a royal stare back
- When travelling in public transport, having the wierd feeling that people are all over you
- Why the heck people in India have to work more than 40 hrs a week, but paid only for 40 hrs?
- Arguing with a maligai kadai kaaran to return a alugina thengai and then fret abt customer service in the States
- Looking for calories on the back of every food article purchased in super market (as if we were born and bought up in that)

Well, the list would go on.. so guys please add on..
