Yemen is not bad as it seems, or how it had been told from other people's point of views, but to me and as well as many others, Yemen is not so bad. Like my coach used to say "You gotta be in the dream, to understand what it means" Idea . In Yemen, you can easy drink in your own residence, or walk with a girl Wink in the street without being hustled or diturbed, but not like Saudi, you are rested and sent to jail Crying or Very sad , if she is not related, wife, or a cowarker. Therefore, if you are afraid of being kidnapped, I suggest, to check your facts right Rolling Eyes !............And by the way, do here of any terrorist drama in Yemen, or Was it Saudi Question

Is Devante's posting a joke or what? I hope so! If it is serious, and those grammatical, syntactical and spelling mistakes are real, it is a tragic reflection on the state of the TEFL industry.

In a forum for English teachers, surely we can...or at least SHOULD be able to...expect better than this?

What IS a "cowarker"? I presume it is someone who arks cows, but what I want to know is, is it just arking of cows that's illegal in Saudi or is all arking Haraam? Furthermore, if I to check my facts right does this to mean I won't get to kidnapped?

Smile I thought Surprised that I Shocked was bad with the smilies Very Happy but Gee, in that posting Embarassed the smilies outnumber Laughing words and Shocked indeed, Idea almost equal Laughing letters in Evil or Very Mad number Wink Laughing Laughing

I think this poster put this on in response to someone who had complained of his employer in Yemen. Some of his posts got edited out or pulled, so...

This thread will probably run into problems too..
