    About the way we look our safty doors is by pulling up the handle has to do with Assa had problems with this kind of locks when they first came out. They were easy to pick with a very thin (0,4 mm thickness)piece of metal inserted were the bolt is. And it was impossible to prevent this and nobody would know until it was to late. And it happened in a few seconds.

    What's the big deal about waiter/waitress service. You walk into a restaurant, you're shown table, server hands you a menu, shortly after then they come back to take your order. Someone may have a question or two about the food. They hand in the order and then bring it out when it's ready. It's not rocket signs or back breaking labour. They reason the Americans are so friendly because they are basically begging for a tip. It's so cringy its pathic.

    So great knock MLM What no one sees is hello build the business and earn income and technically your products are coming from that earned income and sometimes one can earn free products. Oh shame it is called grow up and be an adult and pay your taxes. An MLM will get rid of someone if they did something wrong and no on mlm it is not a salary. You clearly have no clue of MLM. Go join one and do it properly with the right guidance and then come back. No mlm you can sign me up and I can earn more than you. Those rules are in order and upfront before you join. It is not a scheme. So you just showed us all you did not read any rules of the company and you have not built a proper business. Well go create your own mlm and let's see how you do.

    I stumbled across this video and watched out of curiosity. I like to hear different points of view. Building any business takes perseverance. Everything takes work. There is no free ride. MLMs just happen to be a different model that gives people an opportunity to share in the profits. People buy stuff all the time. Networking isn't for everyone. Besides, arbonne's products are amazing. That's why people keep coming back to them.

    Welcome to sweden! Glad you like it here. About the ac, most apartments dont have ac thats true. However, around 65-70% of the houses in sweden have air to air heating pumps, and of course they have ac mode. Plus the fact that half of sweden dont really have any use for ac, the heat and humidity are only for one to two months, and thats not worth the investment.

    For being a business owner, your wrong look at grocery stores the name in the building in the independent stores they sell other products they didn’t make them they answer to a company but they are still business owners just like restaurants sporting good stores that are chain stores they own the business but they still answer to someone

  • @jonasbjork6593

    One thing that struck me as odd when I moved from Sweden to the US was that in the US the seasons starts at a given date, like someone just decided when summer starts. In Sweden there are criteria about what the weather is doing that switches from one season to the next. This once led Sweden to have three seasons at once ...

    I really enjoy watching your videos, it's an inspiration to hear about your stories and experiences and I'm very happy to have found your channel. Personally I think the weather we got is something Swedes have really tried to utilize. I feel like its common to plan for your favorite plants in your garden and projects as it gets darker, and to really watch it come to life in spring - summertime, as well as a high boost as a society when everyone is outside again. I also think people value autumn and the other seasons more as a novelty bc it's missed when its gone :) I really love listening to your clever way of listing differences between our countries and I hope you and your boyfriend are having a good time

      Sure, sorry if it came off as rude I just prefer very brash and loud people, also the weather as I'm best in hot climates and Sweden is typically cold, I've always had a love for american fast food too. Obviously there are things that Sweden does better but overall i just feel like moving from UK to US would be less of a culture shock than Sweden which is bizarre :D@@IlyssaAlvarez

    Despite the fact that around 60% of the population are members of the Church of Sweden, it is estimated that 46-85% of Sweden's population are atheists, agnostics or non-believers according to religious sociological surveys.

    • @akeke1
      @akeke1 Рік тому

      Similar in Denmark. Kanada 19-30% . In USA: One 2018 research paper using indirect methods estimated that 26% of Americans are atheists, which is much higher than the 3%-11% rates that are consistently found in surveys.
