re: Visiting Europe and noticing little differences between Europe and the US

I agree with, the snack thing. I don't have to be in the office everyday, but every time I go to the office, the receptionist has at least 1 bag of some type of chips, cookies etc open on her desk, and a bowl of candy within reach. Washing it down with a Diet Coke! She is huge. We don't get a lot of walk in people other than company employees, so management does not have a problem with snacking constantly.
