How to understand us
Speaking English is one thing – understanding is another. He prefers to communicate straightforwardly. A "no" comes from him just as easily as a "yes". Yet, some cultures are not used to this kind of communication. However, we consider it most important that you correctly and not only possibly understand your situation. Therefore, please do not be offended! When you have to communicate "no" and this is inconvenient for you because you consider it impolite, so please give us a break and negate your response as much as possible without really breaking with your culture! Consider we rely on being understood and that we understand you. Consider straightforwardness as a chance, a new possibility.
