 Habits of Soviet citizens, who are gone.
Habits of Soviet citizens, who are gone.

Time passes inexorably. We do not have time to look back, and it took almost 30 years since the Soviet Union collapsed. During this time, much has changed, including the habits of residents of the former Soviet Union, including Russia. From some of these citizens have long and successfully escaped. What are these "habits" are? Let us examine more closely.

1. Low self-esteem

Not that it was really bad.
Not that it was really bad.

A considerable part of Soviet citizens had problems of varying degrees of severity with the assessment itself. That's why many people simply did not know how to take compliments, began to suspect the other party, or in every way justified. Especially a lot of compliments embarrassment caused, according Novate.ru authors at the fair half.

2. picking up trash

Collect all and more.
Collect all and more.

The last years of the Soviet Union were not the brightest. Decline in living standards and the deficit left their mark on people's behavior. Many very quickly got used to take everything that is bad. No, this is certainly not about stealing! And that sometimes people did frankly ridiculous (by modern standards) stocks.

3. Do not ask for help

I can do everything myself. Not.
I can do everything myself. Not.

Another "side effect" of Soviet reality. Most people frankly could not and did not want to ask for help. Being a "jack of all trades" is still very difficult (if not impossible). The benefit of the citizens of today much more likely to seek professional help, and do not engage in independent action.

4. Queue

Right was the national sport of some kind.
Right was the national sport of some kind.

Say thanks to the increase in the average standard of living, as well as the appearance of the terminal with a voucher for the fact that the queues in the modern world has become less! Although regarded as standing in line "habit" is difficult, considering the Soviet everyday life, it may seem that everything was just so.

5. "For three persons"

Already do not.
Already do not.

Was at the drinkers in the USSR is a tradition, as "to think for three." She explained quite simply. vodka bottle 2 rubles cost 87 cents. Thus, all just dumped on the ruble. Today already do. The question, "you'll be third?" Today is not relevant.

6. listen to BBC

And what is the bourgeoisie.
And what is the bourgeoisie.

Listen to "the voice of the enemy" by using the radio was a very entertaining pastime in the USSR. It appeared because of the existence of an information barrier between the countries. Today, when the world is ruled by the internet and digital technology, in such a "hobby" is no longer any to use.

7. The battle for the harvest

Say thank you progress.
Say thank you progress.

Russia is a country with risky agriculture. The agricultural cycle is a period of less than six months. Russian people are not accustomed to waiting for the mercy of nature. However, with a departure from a planned economy, and also due to improvements in technology, "to fight for the harvest" in our day have ceased.
