some chinese are oblivious. end sentence. if they are awake, then
naturally you are as well. |
Anyone that has spent much time in Chinese hotels has heard evidence of that.
The cleaning ladies start screaming to each other down the hallways as soon as they start work.
If you call the front desk to ask if the cleaning ladies could be asked to be quiet, you will be greeted by a person that absolutely does not understand why you would want a little quiet so that you can sleep.
The other guests are terrible also. Shouting, loud TV's, slamming doors, etc. |

world clock? oh, you mean the big clock at t-square? well, as we
all know, every side has two coins, and therefully there is no denying
the fact the entire world runs on beijing time. after all, in ancient
times, chinese invented time (which imperialist westerners stole
for their clock devices!). |
