are you working with unknown?

when i or you work in India, we don't know the person sits next you always. There are many people, there are many projects and we don't bother to know each other and ultimately gives you a feeling that you working with the unknown people, unknown faces. Which is completely different here in France. When i came here and i have worked in 2 different offices and i have seen and felt a very good gesture by all the employees. all of them even even they dont know me, Came and greet me, and most importantly every day, Which makes you feel that you know every one and you feel that you working with known people know faces. This is very small thing which makes me think how important is the ice-breaker words are, or we name it as greetings "Good morning" "Good day" "Hi" "Hello". We just need these words to make you feel differently and give you different work environment, a friendly environment.

The scenario i am talking may not be same in all the companies there. Because when i was working for Eka Software Solutions, CDAC, it was not the case, there i was knowing almost all of them. But in big multinationals we have this issue, working with unknown. you may give argument that how many people you will greet if there are more then 3 thousand employee. But certainly we can greet the people around the work place. They may not be many.

This one good thing about the work culture here in clermont-ferrand, ATOS offices and Logica Offices.
