@julian: this is a good one — “24) It’s not rude to answer the intercom to your flat by asking ‘Quien?’ (or maybe that was just my flatmate…)”
Or anwering the phone with “Diga”. We had a Spanish colleague here (U.S.) who initially would answer the phone in English only with “Tell me”. Our boss thought this was very strange.
