So you think Winged Isis' replies on my post were purely informational and not at all affronting? My bad then, cause I have a slightly different perception of respectful interaction.DJKeefy wrote:I dont think anyone is having a go at you Magnolia since the revolution there as been a change in the rules for foreigners working in Egypt and they have stopped issuing work permits, I suppose this is an attempt to give Egyptians a chance to find work, on top of that there is over 250,000 Egyptian workers who have fled Libya back to Egypt who are now without work.
Hi Hurghada Lady and thanks! Yeah, I know SpotRedSea. There are lots more sites for free vacancy postings. I just came across this forum the other day (which was new to me) and, not to leave any stones unturned, dropped a line... which, in retrospect, wasn't such a good idea.Hurghada Lady wrote: Hi Magnolia, A warm and friendly, welcome to the forum![]()

That's Winged Isis point of view, not mine, I dont think anything wrong in the fact you are looking for work,Magnolia wrote:So you think Winged Isis' replies on my post were purely informational and not at all affronting?

Never mind though. Wishing you guys all the best
Wasn't intending hostility, no need to be so sensitive M, I meant just exactly what Keefy said. You said you know it's not a good time to be asking, so one would assume you had heard something similar.DJKeefy wrote:I dont think anyone is having a go at you Magnolia since the revolution there as been a change in the rules for foreigners working in Egypt and they have stopped issuing work permits, I suppose this is an attempt to give Egyptians a chance to find work, on top of that there is over 250,000 Egyptian workers who have fled Libya back to Egypt who are now without work.
You see, there are ways to make a point in a politer mannerWinged isis wrote: Wasn't intending hostility, no need to be so sensitive M, I meant just exactly what Keefy said. You said you know it's not a good time to be asking, so one would assume you had heard something similar.
In Hurghada and Luxor, which exist nearly solely on tourism, there is no work. Thousands are sitting idle. There are over 1, 000, 000 Egyptians who were working in Lybia, and more in other nearby countries currently experiencing politcal unrest, many of who will be coming home and looking for work. While probably none of those have your qualifications, there no doubt are some already in Egypt who do.
Your initial post was bare of details. My response was a mirror of that. You only told us about something that is widely available in Egypt. Also, maybe you could have told us of the sites you already knew about, like that offered here. Perhaps next time, while not requiring a full CV,a little more padding would attract the response you require. You didn't even tell us exactly what type of work you required; it was a very wide-open request. And I did say "Sorry" at the beginning!

Only too happy to help, but sadly my best advice is: don't hold your breath. Hopefully after the election, when we all hope the situation will be more stable, things will be looking brighter for your chances. Good luck.
