With all respect to cleaners and tea boys. I do respect them a lot and if I had to use ranks, I would consider them all, way above most of the people who exercise a "management" position here in Qatar. Each one of them have a sad story behind them and most of them are heroes suffering under an unjust society.
For your information, from where I come from, a cleaner and a person who serves tea/coffee, is regarded as important as a senior manager and their salaries sometimes are not too apart. The social benefits are equal. We grow up with a diversity of people and racism is just not part of our upbringing!
My reply to Um_Nooh, came out that way because of the way she posted her question!
Anybody could figure out that salaries vary in accordance with the activity you are going to exercise. Um_Nooh assumed that either we could guess her qualifications and targeted job, or whatever.
My answer was deliberated for her to think about her error and at the same time to highlight the fact that there is NO Qatari in 2010, working as a cleaner! Knowing where she comes from, I deliberated used the professions I did as a wake up call.
In Qatar, a society that treats cleaners and tea boys the way they treat, no one can claim they have class, thus Um_Nooh offended reply tone!
If Um_Nooh have a bit of class, the reply could have been: No, its not those professions, I forgot to specify. The post I am looking for is…”
