Customer Service in Jordan

Hello ladies and gents! I’m back . . .

Did you miss me?

After 6 months of writing nonstop, I figured I’d give you all a nice short break from my ranting while I got my creative juices flowing again.

. . . Which brings me to today’s topic: Customer service in Jordan– the epitome of unprofessionalism. Picture a farm, or a jungle – nay, a vegetable market! Fact is, I do not want to insult animals by comparing them to these horrible, wretched people.

Since I’m against physical violence, I decided that the next best thing to hitting – let’s say – my internet provider, on the head, with a hammer, many times, till he’s unconscious, would be to . . . *drumroll*  . . . write about it.

To those of you who beg to differ, and say that Jordan is the hub of professionalism (and good manners), let me enlighten you with some personal experiences.

Tawjihi... we all go through it.

"Tawjihi" for those of you who is not familiar with the term is the equivalent to the American high school diploma in Jordan .

"Tawjihi" got nothing to do with your actual career path except the power to hold you down and standing between you and your dreams and future plans, it's not an appropriate tool to measure how smart you are or how successful you are going to be... yes, it is a good way to measure how much you can memories - of an out dated book that has nothing to do with the current science developments - but nothing more.

To be Arab...
