Со стороны
Прочитала пост, чувак из Англии пишет про свою попытку устроиться учителем английского для детей в Москве, и в последний момент родители отменяют пробный урок.
I have been told that Russians only think of themselves. I don't think this is true or fair, as you can't really generalize about a whole nation, but I do get the feeling, that some Russians are very proud and do seem at times to have a total contempt for 'foreigners'.
You could end up being used when you think you are onto a good thing, if it seems too good to be true, it often is too good to be true.
А к чему я это - недавно к нам из американского оффиса приехал аналитик на полтора месяца, и пару раз создавались ситуации, при которых мы ему что-то пообещали (но не по работе), и не выполнили... Вот такой вот штришок.
