My first thoughts about the movie "Crash"

Crash is a movie about multiculturalism. We meet several people in different situations, and saw how they tried to solve different problems. We saw everything from a police man killing a hitchhiker, to a carpenter telling stories to his daughter. The movie was very varied, but had a clear red line: Multiculturalism. 

Almost every situation we saw,  was tense. Guns was used a lot in this movie, mostly to scare though. The movie was sad, and told us that being foreign and different in USA not always is easy. We saw a multicultural society, which not worked very well.

However, this is also a movie about hope. In one situation, a desperate foreign shop owner shot a 5 year old girl, when she tried to protect her father. Anyway, the girl survived, something she blamed the invisible cap her father had given her.

The movie shows in a great way how hard i can be to be different in USA. It`s maybe a bit exaggerated, but still worth watching.

How to act in our mentor business?

We are soon going to be stationed in a business for 6 days. How are we going to behave?

When stationed in a mentor business, it`s important to behave well. First of all, it`s really central to be polite. Being rude to your mentor, and he/she will start to dislike you from the beginning. It`s also a great advantage to be well prepared, to know why you are visiting this business, and ask about central themes. If you are showing interest for the business, the business will show interest for you.

How not to behave stationed in the mentor business then, you might ask. Well, to be rude and unprepared is no advantage. Being late in the morning is no advantage either. However, I am quite sure that we all will be able to behave well, and get a good time in our mentor businesses.
