Again Arafa, it depends on where you work (also on the sender’s position, email’s importance, if action is required or if it's only informative).

Knowingly, the work environment is more relaxed here, in general. What should be accomplished in 6 months, may take a year or more.

That, and I work in an active environment, where the Qatari client does respond faster than expected. In fact, my client doesn’t wait to respond in writing, they visit me in my office, or call for a meeting if a critical decision needs made.

I didn’t talk about you offending anyone, as much as I was highlighting that it was hard for me to accept the quick conclusion you’ve jumped into, by nationality?

I hope you’re ok with my (late) response to you here, don't have another thread on lazy Egyptians please..lol

Good luck
Salam
