|
|
I saw the ad currently offering work for Language Solutions in Zawia and Tripoli. No rotation and pathetic pay. 27K is not enough and let me explain why. I once worked in Mellitah next to Zawia. There is nothing in Zawia and it was damaged in the war. Tripoli is doing much better but there is still a need to take care if you are Libyan, let alone a westerner. The pay is insulting and the lack of holidays truly astonishing given the living conditions. I currently work in Libya. Ask for more money and a rotation. |

That's beyond what is reasonable but it's like the paedophile riots in Portsmouth when two paediatricians got beaten up by a mob-someone probably said the colonel had been seen at the KFC. |

So Benghazi is not safe but Tripoli is?
I assume you are not near Benghazi. |

Safe is relative. I've been in both cities recently. Libyans are worried about security-that's for sure. |

The KFC that was trashed was in Tripoli LEBANON not Libya.
There are two Tripoli's. There is no KFC or McDonald's in Libya. |

Yup that one too. It's nothing to do with a movie or cartoon, it's all to do with quality of fries and coleslaw and whether or not you get a complimentary smurf with your bonus points. |
