Ramadan- A to do list in Amman
"So, a lot of people are wondering what to do during Ramadan. It’s quiet, boring, slow, things shut down, our routines are disrupted and it seems like there is nothing to do! The other part of this is money, everything costs a lot of money to do… so here is my list of things to do during Ramadan, in Amman, for under 10 JD."

Saudi Arabia: What do Saudi Employers Look for on a CV?
To include a photo or not?
"With economic downslides taking place in other parts of the world, employment opportunities in Saudi Arabia continue to rise. Therefore a common question received today is what does a Saudi employer look for on a CV? First and foremost the applicant should meet or exceed the requirements and responsibilities of the position. The CV should be tailored for the specific position applied."

Fighting Over Leftovers
Well, thumbs up for being on track to stay conscientious about food wastage this Ramadan:
"Have you ever fought over food after finishing your meal?! Actually I never did, but these days I’m fighting over leftovers with my aunt every Saturday (family gathering). My aunt doesn’t have maids, both of them escaped before Ramadan LOL & she doesn’t feel like or more likely she’s too lazy to cook 2 meals, not to mention that her house is HUGE mashalla. I on the other side, also too lazy to cook another meal (suhoor) that’s why last Saturday we had a fight over some leftovers."
