Culture Shock from Living in Austria? (Vienna)

[@seba117]

To the brazilian woman who was worried about being jailed at her wedding party: nobody gets jailed for noise, the worst that can happen is that you pay a fine, and that's only if the police have to come two or three times in one evening. When you have a party in your flat that is going to be until late you just tell your neighbours before and everybody will be fine unless its every weekend or you have a bad relationship with them.

[@MsViolena]

As an Austrian I have to say it, on sundays (supermarkets are open from monday-saturday) you still can get your groceries at the big train stations like Praterstern, Westbahnhof and so on. And worse case, you can still order stuff. So I don´t know why one guy said he was starving during weekends. Obviously some things are different here compared to other countries and Austria is not into the 24/7 lifestyle. I have to agree when it comes to austrian man, unfortunately... It´s like pulling teeth. I deeply feel for the woman from Brazil. Austrian mentality is so different, I really hope she finds her happy place. Public transport is great in Vienna, outside of Vienna is a different story.

[@AureliaIlva]

About the brazilian woman, I feel sorry for her too. I mean, I live in Vienna, I am very happy about it, and I hope it wont change! I appreciate quiteness, having my personal space, not having to listen to other peoples noises... I listen to music a lot, with my headphones on, no one can stop me with that ❤ Imagine every country was like Brazil for example. That would be a true horror to all people that are introverted, socially akward, autistic, etc! I think its a good thing that countries are so diverse! But yeah, I feel very sorry for the Brazilian woman. Austria obviously just isnt right for her 😥 she seems really sad... I genuinely hope she finds her hapiness, whether it is in Austria or in some other country ❤

[@MsViolena]

@@AureliaIlva same, I’m also introverted 😅 and I feel overwhelmed when I have to socialise all the time, or constantly hear strangers around me. Brazil or any culture like it would end me 🙈 I love that some people thrive in it and it’s lovely to see how they can connect with strangers so easily.

That the stores are closed on sunday is a thing for taking a day with the fam. It's very importand. As an half polish, my freinds there never understood why on sunday everything is closed. Now in Poland every second sunday everything is closed and i talked with friends ad they like it. It's not that when the grocery store is closed for one day you will die. Go to a restaurant or eat what you have at home. Enjoy the day off. Enjoy the life. And be honest, we in Austria do not need nice words or bla bla, come to the point. Vienna one of the top places to live (tbh, when you are older)

[@sandorx4]

Why would anyone like closed shops on Sundays? It's stupid in so many ways. That's one of the days when people have time to shop. It's also a great day for students to make some money on the side. It hurts the economy as well. Imagine how much a company like IKEA loses, which in turn brings less taxes to the state. BTW, every Sunday is closed in Poland now. The new government promised to change that but nothing happened so far.

@@sandorx4 I live in Vienna and will forever be apologetic of our shops being closed. It is great to have a day of the week where is is really easy to meet with large groups because everyone has time. It is an incredibly small inconvenience.

@@thechosenegg9340 Weird use of the word apologetic. Even weirder that smoking was allowed inside as late as 2019. What does meeting in large groups have to do with the moronic Sunday closure? Your friends work in shops? Lots of other things were wrong with Vienna as well, not least the people.

Okay, I'm sorry, but there's no way you have to go hungry at any time, especially in Vienna. Even when the stores that stay open late and on Sundays are not open anymore, there's always food stands where you can get food. Like, at 2am in the morning you can pop by and get a hot meal.

[@angela01617]

yes. and I don´t really get what´s the problem in buying food on saturday instead of being hungry on sunday :) ... me I always have food in the refrigerator for one week or two. if people stay hungry on sunday that means they always buy just food for inmediate eating ?

You can't go to jail for having a loud party, but I also really like it when people respect other people's privacy and to be honest I would prefer it if the law was more restrictive about it. I have a neighbour who plays loud music (Austrian) and I hate the music he plays, it gives me migraines and I find it so disrespectful and egocentric that he doesn't consider that other people are not in the mood for his music when he is, or that we generally don't like the same music, but the most I can do is complain and at best he could get a fine.

[@Limpi43]

Gonna be a bit rude, though I'm not from Austria. ;-) 1.) All those people who complain about shops and stores are closed on sundays... Don't you have enough food at home for a few days? Are you unable to think ahead? And seriously, you want to spend part of your sundays doing shopping/groceries??? 2.) All those people who complain about they must NOT to disturb others... Do you have zero empathy? Are you unable to imagine how others would feel about your act? Cannot imagine that other people don't want to see/hear/smell/etc. when you're having fun??? (When the brazilian girl talked about music in Brazil and how other join singing and she is shushed in Vienna; my first tought was: Please, let me be her neighbor, I swear, within a week she'd complaining about me listening to music and she'd want to shush me.) 3.) When people complain about meeting with friends needs days of planning... I said it before, I say it again: not every people have hours of free time every day. Recently read on the net (subject was about sport, exercise, training) that several people said that after morning routine, commute to work, work (with lunch-break), commute to home, groceries, chores... and they either run out of time or energy or both. Plus relationship, raising children (if you have), taking care of old parents, and the "lifelong learning" trend. So instead of complaining, be grateful that you could be bored.

[@Kabirio93]

I dont think its normal to plan days ahead. We are not robots. Life is unpredictable. You could die tomorrow for example. This mentality totally destroy the vibes. You also mention free time. I dont think everyone is a manager. The truth is people are fucking cold and dont care about humanity and making friends. I dont understand this sense of entitled OMG im busy we cannot meet. People just dont care. Noone is that busy to make friends etc. Its just lack on interest on this topic. Im also rude now: German speaking people just dont care and thats fine: its another culture.

[@ppasci]

@@Kabirio93 Believe it or not but some people are already part of multiple friendgroups and cant hang out with everyone of their friends whenever they want to. Thats exactly not "being too busy to make friends".

[@Limpi43]

@@Kabirio93 "I dont think its normal to plan days ahead." Yes it is. Planning help to manage your life. Planning help NOT to be overwhelmed at work or with chores or with other duties. You either haven't heard 'The Ant and the Grasshopper' by Aesop or La Fontaine, or can't comprehend. Without "plan days ahead" you eventually run out of food and/or toilet paper. "You could die tomorrow for example." So? You live ALL your days as if it's the last one? Or you expect that you'll live tomorrow? "This mentality totally destroy the vibes." Do you know what else destroy the vibes? If you lose your job or an injury that hinders you to earn money for living. If you don't have savings (which is another form of PLANNING AHEAD) you are screwed. "You also mention free time. I dont think everyone is a manager." Do you think only a manager has less (if any) leisure time? I know plenty of people (none of them are manager) who gave up watching movies and matches because they don't have time for it. "I dont understand this sense of entitled OMG im busy we cannot meet." Simple. It's called lack of empathy. You cannot even imagine that other people have MORE things to do in their lives than you do. "Noone is that busy to make friends etc." Not everyone is single in an empty flat. Not everyone has 5-6 hours to spend freely every day. Count with me: evening routine (making dinner, eating dinner, bath, brushing teeth, making the bed, etc.) - roughly an hour (1 hour); 8 hours sleep (if it less, it will cause a) you're tired b) ruining your health) (9 hours); morning routine (making breakfast, eating breakfast, making the bed, taking a sh!t, showering, dressing up, etc. - roughly an hour (10 hours); commute to work (because home office ain't available for everyone) - an hour (11 hours); 8 hours of work (19 hours); lunchbreak - half an hour (19.5 hours); commute to home - an hour (20.5); groceries/chores - half an hour (21 hours). Nothing extreme (it could be 1.5 hour commute, 1 hour lunchbreak, 10 hours of work), no other duties, haven't done anything yet, and still whatever you'd like to do you have less than 3 hours for it. If you have pet(s) - you have less time; if you educate yourself - you have less time; if you've voulenteered for something - you have less time; if you have a relationship - you have less time (at least you ought to); if you have children - you have less time (you MUST); if you exercise - you have less time. "Im also rude now: German speaking people just dont care" You are not rude, you are wrong. Not having free time does not mean they don't care, it means they don't have time. Also, not having free time has nothing to do with language. I'm not from a German speaking country, but all my acquaintances are usually busy (we don't try to ditch each other, occasionally we managed to exchange ideas). Even our family gathering needs a lot of coordination. My girlfriend's family as well. One of my foreigner friend (also from a non German speaking country) since we met has always been busy. A third non German speaking country I know is reportedly the same. So no, it is not a "German speaking culture" stuff, as you might think.

Interesting Perspectives. Especially to see how foreigners perceive our culture. I spend a lot of time with expats and can confirm that they have raised similar points. Though many times not that bluntly. I assume some don't want to be direct when a local is present. - I would say one of the first things people notice is that supermarkts are not open on Sundays. Fair point. That takes same time to adapt - I confirm that Austrians like it more quiet - as I have traveled myself to many other places and experienced the opposite. - difficulty in making friends. Yes! Through studies and work I am exposed a lot to internationals. But I agree that most of my Austrian friends are not keen on making new friends. - I found the comment by the Belarusian woman amusing. It is correct, most Austrian men would want to split the bill or if they pay on the first date expect a gesture on the following one. In a society that strives for more gender equality, this seems fair to me given that the woman is employed as well. I heard this argument many times from other Eastern European women in Austria. That is definitely a difference in cultures. No right or wrong, depending on the perspective.

[@airenekstudio9842]

I think them most problem is the German way of thinking. (Sometimes I say: German is German - they can be from Austria, Deutchland or Switzerland - but they all are Germans. Like the blue is blue - it can be royal, teal, nightblue - but the blue is blue, just have different shades.) Yes: everything is proper, clean, lovely, charming - but there is a cost for it. You have to get used to plan your life beforewards: your free time, meals, dates, everything. If you can do that, you will have time for everything - and everybody will respect your scedule. It's pleasing that everybody respects your free time - but you also have to respect others free time - like Sunday, or the evening. Those cashiers also have personal life, and they also must have time with them family and friends. Ohhh and my favorite: if you leave to another country: you should learn the local language. If they see you at least trying so hard - they will be pretty pleased by. I think it's very basic, logical thing. You would have much more issue if you live in Italy or Spain - because they doesn't have as good education like Austria - they cannot speak English as well as Wiennese people.

There is a good reason why it is not allowed for shops to open on Sunday. I myself work in a Austrian retail shop. The last entire month I worked from Monday-Saturday everyday. I was alone in the shop all the time because the bosses want to save money. You get one hour of break deducted everyday but you cannot use it. I get paid 38,5 hours but worked 60 hours a week. Of course it is not allowed by law but the bosses will "fix" it as they fix everything. Many companies work like this. Nobody cares. The only off days were the Sundays. I don't want to work 30 days a month for the pockets of the bosses and the convenicence of customers.

​​@@DrTelExactly. Living in Vienna is the best thing that has ever happened to me. And I'm definitely not "miserable".... Believe it or not, every single person is different. While some feel the need to socialize with people, others dont want that, and appreciate their personal space, privacy...and are content with meeting poeple just from time to time. There is no perfect place on earth where everyone is happy! For example, I would be more then miserable in a country like Brazil... While for many others its their perfect place to be ;) I wish people would finally stop to label other cultures or countries

[@Bonygasse]

We're not sourpusses, we just value our privacy. We also have the space. That wouldn't be possible in India, would it?

[@janbeklen6855]

You are totaly right, please stay in the country where you are. Don't come to Vienna.

The migrants make Vienna better. Without them, Vienna would be extremely boring and not livable.

I knew a girl in Georgia. She was Austrian. she invited me to her house to stay for a week and chill out with her friends. After a few days she kicked me out the house for being too "negative" and for throwing trash into nature. 🤬🤮🤦🏻🇦🇹
