Good gosh, of course. There are commonalities with people everywhere, and I work with people from many cultures. There are excellent engineers who are white Americans and some who suck.
Same for Chinese. Japanese. Korean. Black. Female. Homosexual.
I won’t paint a broad brush with all people. I won’t do it. Do I think there are some trends?
Yes.
But I take each individual I work with on an individual basis. I give people default respect until they give me a reason NOT to respect them as a professional or an individual. And that is it.
I will not paint people with a broad brush, because my personal experience shows me that a broad brush is unfair.
It doesn’t mean I don’t see trends. I do. But I won’t damn people due to a trend, I will damn them based on my specific persona experience, and that is all I can do.
And I hope people will do the same for me, even if I know that won’t be a uniform experience.
You’re a sensible and good person.
