Parey, salary wise it is peanuts only but if you are cunning enough to learn the trade tricks ( on the roads with the customers ) after coming here you can make cashew nuts in short time. Many have done it and gone scot free on exit. Being a professional fire fighter, try your kind of job, why to fight with the karwa guys better fight with live fire.

Karwa bus drivers get paid approx. QAR 3000 - QAR 4000 per month plus accomodation.  Karwa Taxi drivers have two categories: 1. Fixed salary of QAR 1200 - QAR 1500 plus accomodation.2. Taxi driver pays to Karwa QAR 270 per day(11 Hours) in advance and driver gets all money over and above QAR 270/- each day into his pocket. If driver fails to return cab within 11 hours, he will be charged @ QAR 35 per additional hour or part of the hour. Plus ofcourse the taxi driver is given accomodation by Karwa.
