Travel Info what are they if any? Travel Tips during ramadan there's the messa7arati, a guy that wakes people up to have so7oor, the last meal before they start fasting from daybreak to sunset then you have the me3adadeya, women whose job is to yell and cry out loud when someone dies i don't know if you have those in the US, there are also the shoe shiners, they walk around with a wooden box and shine your shoes in the street, in coffee shops Others In Egypt today there are many jobs that have been phased out in America years ago. For example, bathroom attendents. Every bathroom in Egypt has one. Also, ushers at movie theaters. Also in Egypt there is someone to pump the gas for you at every gas station, as well as someone who will check you oil and put air in your tires. We do most of this ourselves in the USA now, but I remember back when we did not have to pump our own gas. But the bathroom attendents, I don't ever remember having these in the states except at very fancy expensive clubs or hotels. Actually this is the only thing about going to Egypt that irritates me. I kind of like to be alone in the bathroom. i like the first answer plus in every parking area we have someone helps u to park your car and clean it for you if you want . in the supermarket there is someone pack for you and carry the stuff until you reach your door or car . we used to have a man in the local Cigarettes factory he is specialist in tasting the Cig - i saw this guy talking on a tv show 2 months ago. the local servants in ( hammam ) public baths its 100 years old and still we have few of them .a guy carrying a box to polish and clean shoes in the streets. a guy carry a big round knife sharpner walks down the streetsasking to make your knives sharp , In Egypt we have many EXCLUSIVE local jobs .. but these what i remember now best of luck pilots of the Felluca sail boats. farmers who get a pitance for their labour .pharonic site Tour guides who get to rip the tourists off with no come back, sellers of home made antiquities. builders that use mud bricks and mud to build mud houses. scaffolders of wood and string building platforms, and bag boys selling galabeas, makers of alibaster vases by hand, the big one here is a job with the ancient site digs, donkey boys and camel boys, i have one of the rearest jobs i rent out sandal boats to the tourist only three of us on the whole of the Nile, only six sandal boats. ploughing by oxen, making sun bread, cutting suger cane by hand, Night guards on the ancient tombs and temples.tour convoy road stop guards they carry shotguns to stop any traffic getting to the convoys, and a sisha boy his job is to make the bubble pipe for customers to smoke.then you have the makers of said sisha pipes.you need more, whoever the first ones wer must have loads a money nobody wipes my $rse myegypt .co.uk yes you will find many jop ans knife repaire , cars vocative , monkey dancer . at egypt we have this job it called ((el-ardahalge)) he is some one sit infront of the courts or the police station to say to the people who want to do something in the court or the police station what he must do to finish what he want and this job is a private job he isnot a government employer |
