A housewarming party is a special party to be held when someone buys or moves into a new apartment or house. The person who bought the house or moved is the one who throws the panty. The party is a chance for friends and family to congratulate the person on the new home. And it is good time to fill the new space with love and hopefully presents.
Some people register a list of things they want or need for their new home at a local or store or stores. Some common things people will put on a gift registry include kitchen tools like knives and things like curtains. Even if there isn't a registry, a good housewarming gift is something to decorate the new house with, like a piece of art or a plant.
This is often appreciated since at a housewarming there isn't a lot of food served. There are usually no planned activities like games at a housewarming party. The host or hostess of the party will, however, probably give all the guests a tour of their new home. Sometimes, because a housewarming party happens shortly after a person moves into their new home, people may be asked to help unpack boxes.
Housewarming parties get their name from the fact that a long time ago people would actually bring firewood to a new home as a gift. Now most homes have central heating and don't use fires to keep warm.
A. This isn't usual though.
B. It is traditional to bring a gift to a housewarming party.
C. You can also bring food or drinks to share with the other guests.
D. If you're lucky enough to receive gifts, keep them in a safe place.
E. It also gives people a chance to see what the new home looks like.
F. The best housewarming parties encourage old friends to get together.
G. This was so that the person could keep their home warm for the winter.
A. In fact, you're just doing your job. B. So you have no choice but to trust them. C. Americans cannot get along well with Asians. D. It just doesn't work that way with Asian people. E. Americans are very different from Asian people. F. You can do anything you want but don t disrespect an Asian man. G. If you don t understand their culture, you will get some problems with them. |
There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US. They're hard-working, respectful but strange sometimes. {#blank#}1{#/blank#} Asian people are different from people in any other cultures. If you think you know them, you might want to think again.
How are they different? When it comes to most Asian culture, respect is everything. {#blank#}2{#/blank#} If you don't show proper respect for him, you will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he's your boss. It's something called face saving in the Asian culture. It's ridiculous sometimes but it's their culture. Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work. Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal.
{#blank#}3{#/blank#} If you re Asian, you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them. It will be easier for you since you re in their countries. Imagine an America working in China, expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone, I think they will take him outside and take care of him. {#blank#}4{#/blank#}
If you're an American boss giving your Asian employee a review, you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks. They will think that you don t like them, disrespectful, and want to get rid of them. {#blank#}5{#/blank#} Of course, it's not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee's mind.
