For the article about Germany's Bild newspaper, I was surprised to find out that it is much more common to read such a news source in Germany compared to in the USA. While in the USA most stories in such a news source are made up, I think that since the stories in the German Bild are based on actual events, this could be why it is more widely read. For the second article, I think it would be odd to always have my door closed but I can understand how this might be the Germans way of keeping a more professional appearance. In response to the last article, I am glad that Americans like to keep things as simple as possible most of the time (especially for every day tasks!).
