Can somebody help me? Change of sponsorship

My company terminated me due to redundancy, and my daughter is under my sponsorship. I applied on the MOI site to transfer my sponsorship from my company to my husband, but I received a message stating, “Rejected – Reason: OTHERS.” I would like to know the requirements or steps I need to take next. The message advised me to visit the nearest service center. Can anyone who has been through a similar situation or has knowledge about this process guide me on what to do? Appreciate your help. Thank you.

Nursery or Daycare on Day Rate

Hello,

We're looking for a nursery or daycare that allow us to send our baby on daily basis - we don't need to send him everyday, only when required. Location Lusail/ Rawdat Al Hamama/West Bay the furthest we can consider.

Most of the nurseries I found offer 3 day/week or 5 day/week. We may need to send him at most once a week.

Why is there a lonely camel here 24/7 ?

He’s located at the Pearl not far from Sea Side restaurant. The patch of soil without grass around him really shows how he’s been there a long time, unable to move. Kinda cruel…

Rendering Period to leave job

Hi! Do some of you knew how long will the rendering period to be serve in your current company if you wish to leave Qatar even tho you didn’t finish your contract?

Actually I have 2 contracts, but have different starting dates.

In the first one, I already served 2.5 years and is an open ended contract.

Whereas the new one I only served less than 2 years and is a 5-year contract.

Will the first contract won’t count? And is there a way to notify ministry that I resigned in case the company won’t allow my resignation. I’m just worried they might label me as runaway or blocked me here.

Thank you!

Birth of my nephew Khaled. Amidst war in Gaza

In the midst of the war on Gaza, my nephew Khaled, son of my brother Ibrahim, was born into conditions that can only be described as hellish. He was born in the fifth month of the war, after his mother endured the harshest trials and the most unbearable suffering.

She was pregnant with him during the displacement and had to flee from constant shelling, running a long distance while dealing with the pains of pregnancy and the immense psychological pressure. She walked over 20 kilometers continuously during the second displacement from Jabalia to Al-Shifa Hospital in western Gaza, in a desperate attempt to save herself and her unborn child.

But the journey of pain didn’t end there. Khaled was born in a tent, in the midst of unbearable heat, surrounded by insects and harsh conditions. Nothing in the tent resembled a normal life. The air was stifling, food was scarce, and the water was contaminated. From his very first day, Khaled faced malnutrition, skin infections, and multiple diseases due to the unsanitary conditions he lived in. And now, he faces the cold winter of Gaza, where the freezing winds grow harsher each day. Khaled and his family live in a torn tent that barely protects them from the biting cold and rain, amidst challenges that are impossible to bear.

I was never able to give Khaled a toy or even smile at him with genuine happiness. All the toy shops were destroyed, and all we have left are shattered memories. Even my family hasn’t been able to see him for more than five months due to continuous displacement and the dangers of moving him amidst the bombing. Khaled and his brother Hamoud are overjoyed whenever I visit them. They cling to me.. playing on my back and in my arms, inviting me to join them in their simple games in the sand, as if those brief moments are the only joy they have in this terrible world.

Creepy encounter with a maintenance guy 😭

We had a scheduled maintenance this morning and it was just me at home as my 2 other housemates were at work. Then this maintenance guy was all chatty and asking me if I am married or in a relationship, I said yes, even though I am not in any because I’ve had previous encounters where people just become aggressive and forceful when they know my status.

So he blatantly told me “I WILL GIVE YOU 300.” I said, “FOR WHAT? FOR THE MAINTENANCE? I THOUGHT IT’S FREE?” he didn’t reply and just freaking smiled creepily. Then I proceeded to go back to my room coz I was getting ready for work.

Fast forward, they have finished their work. This guy had the audacity to ask me IF I AM READY????? I said, “Ready for what?” He said, “I will give you 300.” At this point I was like, WT**** is this guy thinking??? I’m not naive in these kinds of conversations. I exactly knew what he wants but I have to ignore it and play nice and dumb coz I WAS ALONE. And I know being aggressive and rude won’t help and will only make things worse.

I’ve had previous encounters like this before and it’s just so weird and disgusting how people think men/women will do anything for money and will assume that everyone is down to do something nasty. It was so random and absolutely disgusting.🤮

And he was waaaayyy older than me too. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I just want to rant about this coz if I don’t I will be overthinking about it all dayyyy. 😭

But the 3 cats which are 3 months are sick/ill, once they started going out of our boundary about a week now. One died today with foam kind subtance in it's mouth, though was playing all morning yesterday.

My mum feeds them same food that we feed our cat in house.

Do I need a CR for a very small Instagram business?

Hi All!

I have an idea running for a small instagram store. I am aware that yes technically you require a CR to run any business in Qatar. I just want to know how strict they are in practice. It would be a small scale shop selling low value items purely on instagram, will I get into trouble without a CR?

All thoughts appreciated ☺️

Anyone experiencing slow media loading on Google Photos in Qatar?

I wanted to check if anyone else in Qatar has noticed slow loading speeds on Google Photos lately? I’m experiencing delays when trying to view photos and videos—thumbnails load fine, but full media seems to take forever to load completely. I have Vodafone giga home.

Is it just me, or is anyone else facing this issue?

When should you turn on hazard lights?

A kind reminder, for those not aware and switching on their hazard lights on the first rain drop or foggy sky. This important safety feature should be used in emergency only! if you've broken down and/or are causing an obstruction. With your hazards on and rain or fog already blurring road visibility, other drivers cannot tell which lane you're in, if you're changing lanes or if you are actually in emergency and fully stopped. Just turn on your headlights and taillights instead. But If the weather is bad enough that you feel hazard lights are truly necessary, may be just pull off the road and stop until conditions improve.
