    Anybody deal with the Dutch much?

    As I am beginning my career search, two of the companies I am interested in working for are Dutch owned Rabobank and Claas. Does anybody have any insight into the Dutch Culture and their business practices?

    Their athletic teams wear a lot of orange. That's a negative.

    I like the color Orange, it was the dominant color of my high school, my undergrad instition, and my families farm equipment.

    Doane College in Crete, Nebraska. Tommie Fraizer and his former Sooner OC, Brad Davis led our football team to a 2-8 mark last year.

    The proper term in Nebraska is Cretian, as in:
    Q. What happens when some one leaves Crete?
    A. The become an ex-Cretian.

    Orange? You like orange?

    Oh, and I what's the story behind the Dutch's orange? Their flag is red, white and blue. What gives?

    Oh, they like to have sex and do drugs in Dutch Land, so they have that going for them, if you like that sort of thing.

    As a Nebraska fan, a dislike of orange isn't bred into people up here like it is in Oklahoma. I understand why y'all don't like orange. Plus, Allis-Chalmers/AGCO tractors are pretty sweet.

    ...or something like that

    But still, orange has no redeeming qualities to it. Doesn't ever look good. EVAR.

    Heh. There was a guy at OU we called 'Dutchboy' because he was hitting on this lesbian on a trip to Houston. Good times.

    Deere products while well built are for people with more money than brains, just like Angus cattle.

    i am familiar with giving people their ovens.
    In the beginning, the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

    Don't expect any free meals, they always make you pay for your own.
