Germans are not rude
publicēja Bob Smith - Vietas Vācija forums
As far as people in developed western countries go, Germans are normal and mostly they are not rude.
I come from London and worked in Germany for five years and now I am back in the UK. If you want terrible service and rude people in public places then London beats just about everywhere I can think of in Germany. The people on the tube and in the street in London barge past you, they almost never say excuse me, the atmosphere is unfriendly, stressful and often threatening. If you look at most people they ignore you flatly or scowl at you and if you look at a young male then you can feel very threatened. It is very aggressive compared with most German cities.
The service in most bars and cafes in Britain is overly familiar and rude compared with Germany. I miss the way the change is put on a plate in Germany, I don't like touching a sales assistant's sweaty and dirty hand. In London I find they are often sarcastic and rude if you don't tip, and they often act resentfully towards middle class people. This is another side to Britain I had forgotten about, our class system, with all the rudeness and resentment that we have here between the social classes, which is much worse here than it is in Germany.
I never thought I would say this but I also really miss the 'Sie' in Germany which keeps strangers at a comfortable distance. I don't like being called 'mate' or 'buddy' by a waiter or a barman thank you very much.
Also Germany is orderly, there is much less drunkeness and public disorder, much less litter and the people are generally better dressed in Germany as well.
The only thing I would say is people smoke much less in Britain which is a plus point.
But overall I would say the people here in Britain and especially London are ruder than Germans. Germans can take a long time to get to know and sometimes seem a little cold at first but they are not generally rude people.
