Where can i get Bouquets from? (reasonable)
hey guys im looking for hand bouquets but idk where to find em. would love to hear from you guys
why in all GCC , still kuwait airport is not functioning fully ?
Why the kuwait airpot is so delayed in starting up fully ? I understand damages but now we are more than 1 month when war have been ceased , why uae airport was working even in time of war. I wish it start fully and prices of air fair to be reasonable , it is huge loss for kuwait , like hotels and resort business is down , consumer market is totally down.
Kuwait will accelerate to in deep losses if they run airport in this pace. I understand they want more in safety but they can take calculated risk and start few other flights and down the air fair so people really can go and come easily.

Jobs for expats above the age of 60?
Hey everybody, My friends father is above the age of 60 and currently works a job in a company that treats him really horribly. Just recently it has gotten too much for him and he would like to quit but the job market in kuwait is.. obviously horrible
my friend's family situation is not really good either. He has about 35+ years experience as a store incharge.
I've already suggested complaining to HR or something like that. or even lodge a complaint to authorities but they've said they dont want to be at risk for loosing the job without having a backup of some sorts
Any help would be appreciated, thank you!
Locations into conversations
I found this Kuwaiti app and honestly the idea is pretty wild. It’s basically just a radar and one button, you press it and it shows whether there’s an open “circle” around the place you’re at or not.
The circle has people who are actually there chatting together and posting stuff in the location. And there are also stamps you can collect from every place you visit.
Not gonna lie, it weirdly made me want to go out more 😂
Kuwait Airways Terminal (T4)
We are flying out soon, and I want to check with people how’s it going?
Do we truly need the 4 hours? What food options are open? How long are the lines?
We are flying out for Eid (thank god we were lucky enough to reschedule our flight that we booked prior), but I don’t want to be at the airport too early with young kids.
Thank you!!
🤞
Who wants to go to sluggish?
I tried going there a few times alone and the small area gives me terrible social anxiety. I really like the vibes of the place so I'm hoping if I go with someone or a group I won't feel so out of place
edit: thank you everyone for the offers! I didn't think this post would get so much positive traction
Posture correction clinics?
I spend most of my time studying at my desk. I've noticed that I'm starting to develop text neck. I'm worried I might end up with a herniated disc in my neck. Are there clinics that help with posture correction?

Chocolates in Kuwait
Where can I find the best chocolates in Kuwait that I can weigh and buy? We have an event coming up, so I would like for it to be really yummy. Not necessarily in pretty packages. Just something I can keep out for display that people can just pick and eat.
App or Ai to learn Kuwaiti or Arabic
I'm looking for an app or Ai that I can learn and practice Arabic from scratch.
I do not want a solution to just hang out with Kuwaiti speakers and learn that way. I do not wnat a solution of just watch Arabic shows with subtitles. Nor the book, learn Kuwaiti.
I will try that once I get a basic grasp of the Arabic language.
TIA

kuwaiti travelling for the first time!
hello everyone! im an 18 year old Kuwaiti guy who wants to travel to germany and maybe cebu for a solo vacation trip / with friends.
i was just wondering since im 18, do i need my fathers permission still? i heard you have to be 21 to travel alone and stuff like that,the situation with my fathers complicated so i wanted to know if that would create any problems for me when i go travel.
i also heard that until you're 21 your fathers fully responsible for you and you aren't a "free adult" till you are 21. so if anyone could give me pointers that would be much appreciated!
PS sorry for the bad english...
Collage and diploma
I wish to change careers and i was wondering about the logistics of having a collage degree then getting a diploma.
Do I get the same collage degree salary, if I used a diploma to change my job in the government sector? Or does working with the diploma gives me the lower salary?

deema and taly

I dont really mind if I have to pay a little extra as insurance
price of laptop is approx. (470 KD)
Why is customer service so bad in Kuwait?
I've had three recent interactions where I was complaining about the poor service / failure to provide the promised service and on both occasions I was very polite.
In return I was spoken to bluntly, rudely in fact, and I was made to feel like an annoyance rather than the customer/client.
The management have a tendency to blame others underneath them and then hide behind the customer care people. It's not very noble behaviour. In fact they were very arrogant.
I'm only giving two recent examples. I could say the same for nearly everywhere that I go .
Is this normal here or am I just perpetually unlucky?
Edited for clarity: I'm referring to the whole concept of customer service in relation to the organisation - how a company treats customers and handles concerns and complaints.
Bus driver dropped my wife in the middle of nowhere because he didn't want to face the traffic . How to raise a complaint to the management?
Context:
The stop she wanted to get off at is a normal scheduled stop for the bus.
Severn km before the stop he told her to get down, that he wasn't going to stop at the regular stop because he didn't want to face the traffic.
My wife was shocked and distressed and got off the bus and then called me in a panic.
He dropped her in the middle of nowhere and I spent 40 minutes trying to get through traffic to get to her, by which time she was distraught.
I complained and said that although the bus driver is wrong, the management must take ultimate responsibility for failing to adequately train, monitor, and assess their staff and I expect an apology from the management.
As expected, they didn't do that. Instead the customer care replied sorry for the inconvenience. If this was meant to calm me, they certainly misjudged the seriousness of the situation, because it had the opposite effect.
So, what steps can I take next to hold the management accountable?
Using Kuwait Emergency Travel Document to return to Kuwait via Qatar Airlines
I am flying from Dublin to Doha (transit), then from Doha to Kuwait.
My passport expired and so I have ETD issued by the Kuwaiti Embassy in Dublin. I'm almost certain the ETD can be used from Doha to Kuwait as I will be travelling via Kuwait airlines, but I am not sure if I can travel via Qatar airlines from Dublin to Doha with this document. The embassy told me to double check with the airlines, and the airlines told me to double check with the embassy, and now I am lost. What do I do? Or does anyone know? I am a Kuwaiti citizen.
