You’ve been living in Russia for too long if: 
---------------------------------------------

You think twice before throwing away an empty can from coffee.
You always keep an empty plastic bag in your pocket, just in case… 
Taking the receiver you shout “Hallo, hallo, hallo!” without letting the person introduce himself.
You keep odds and ends for cats in the yard.
You cross the street running.
They say on the radio that the temperature will be 0 degrees and you think that it’s a nice weather to have a walk.
You’re pleasantly surprised if you find toilet paper in the toilet at work.
You’re amazed if a shop-assistant is glad to see you and greets you cheerfully.
You are at a loss if the policeman asks you to pay only the official fine.
You’re at a loss what the tax inspector REALLY means when saying that everything is ok. 
You give the tips to the waiter only if you really liked the service. 
You’re planning to have your vacations during the period when they switch off hot water. 
You know more than 60 women whose name is Olga.
You put on a woolen hat when going to the Russian baths.
In a restaurant you put empty bottles under the table 
You think that additional metal doors are a necessity. 
Talking to your compatriots you forget some words and use Russian ones instead. 
You don’t feel like returning to your native country.
