What's Happening???

This is soooo weird, that you say this. I just spoke with another employee there, as part of my beginning process with the company, and he shared that there are a lot of rules, but it's a great company to work for. It made me feel a little bit better.

Glassdoor is hard to read sometimes. Often, those ''reviews'' are usually employees that were fired or left because they weren't happy, I've noticed.

 

Because I think that, generally, black people are more demonstrative and expressive of emotion.

I think that, generally, white people have a more difficult time expressing emotion and their events tend to be more stiff and repressed.

So, if I were going to choose a black funeral or a white wedding to observe, without any attachment to the people involved, I'd feel like I'd seen something more genuine at the black funeral.

 

:/ I'd rather see repressed folks at a wedding than people grieving.

 

You haven't seen a drama-fest, until you've gone to an Italian funeral.

 

When the ave Maria gets played its game over for me.

 

Music at funerals?

Ay ay ay

 

Right

My paternal grandmother died a few years ago, and she was Italian, and the theatrics by some of my dad's family was really over the top. Wailing, not crying lol My mom rolled her eyes.

 

Colorado seems like a nice state to visit.

 

(hoping Colorado IS a state)

 

Ahhh the wailing. It can come across as false I think. Very old country.

 

It is, and agree. In movies, the skies always look blue, even if it's cold?

 

You don't have?

 

No.

I mean, Croatians do.

Us Bosnian Croats - not really.
We're more traditional than your regular Croatians.

 

My grandmother was probably rolling her eyes, too lol She hated all that. I cried a lot when she died, and still do. I cry by myself though, I'm not into public displays of crying.

 

People used to hire women to wail on funerals

 

I really want to see the wailing wall.

Israel should be next on my list of places to visit.

 

İnşallah

 

Some Italian funerals here I think they still do. *wink nudge nudge*

 

Ohh you Wasp!

 

Ah Italians
