Speaking of customer service, I found such a difference between Qatar and the States and only when I got here did I realize how bad customer service is in Qatar. Sales people actually smile here,talk to u and try to help out!!

On the other hand, I think there are factors that come into play such as salary (ones in Qatar are underpaid and overworked) and this whole inferiority mentality, i.e. some customers may think that the sales people are below them or the sales people may fear that if they talk to the wrong customer they risk getting deported, etc so all of that doesn't help in the customer-salesperson relationship.
