For over a week painters worked daily to do a little face lift on our office. It was a pretty big mess to work around.
The Africans couldn't figure out why we would want to change the beautiful turquoise blue color of the office. The Americans felt like they were in a constant "blue funk." It was dark and depressing to us.
For the Americans it was a great idea to make the office lighter. We thought it would be a nice change to put a calm and pleasant beige on the walls. We like things a little on the boring side and our friends from Africa can't figure out why we'd go for such a dull color. But the Americans outvoted the Africans and we're very happy with the change.
