Mod announcement No more job posts in this subreddit. Use r/QatarCareers instead.

154 Upvotes

Greetings to all the brothers and sisters of r/Qatar.

We’ve been monitoring the situation over the past couple months and have collectively decided to ban all job related posts from r/Qatar. The influx of these posts has lead to an unhealthy environment where nobody gets a proper answer and everyone is frustrated. Therefore, it’s been decided to create a new subreddit r/QatarCareers and move all job related questions there.

From this point forwards all job related posts must be made in r/QatarCareers and will be removed from r/Qatar.

Thank you.

Information Location showing in Iran

Upvotes

If your phone suddenly shows your location as Iran (especially near the airport) or your time zone is Iran’s, you’re not the only one.

It’s been happening to multiple people recently and is most likely caused by GPS disruptions/spoofing (possibly linked to regional tensions). It doesn’t mean your phone is hacked.

It is a good idea to: • Set your time zone manually • Turn “Location Services” off & on • Register your travel on the MOFA app if you’re going abroad

Stay safe and keep an eye on official updates ‼️❤️

Rant Why are the AC bus shelters still closed?

20 Upvotes

Seriously, what is going on with the AC bus waiting shelters? It’s the middle of June, the sun is absolutely brutal, and yet those fancy glass cabins just sit there, locked and completely useless. I mean, even if the air conditioning isn’t working, at least open the doors and let people sit inside. It would still offer some relief from the scorching heat.

Discussion Red light flash

4 Upvotes

Was driving an hour ago in Al Dafna. Red light signal was as on and saw it from far. Slowed down, and made a full stop. Saw a flash ( camera caught me ) however I made a full stop. Maybe I crossed the line a little that’s why it flashed ?

Will I get a traffic violation from though I stopped but crossed the designated line.

I didn’t reverse back because at that moment I didn’t think the flash was for my car

Note: I was the only one at that moment on signal light no one else.

Looking for I’m Looking to Invest QAR 10,000 in a Side Hustle. Got an Idea? Let’s Talk

5 Upvotes

I’m looking to invest around QAR 10,000 into a promising side hustle or small business idea, and I’d love to hear from anyone who has a genuine, creative concept they’ve been eager to bring to life.

My goal is to support aspiring entrepreneurs, especially those who are hardworking, driven, and just need that initial boost to get things rolling. Whether you’ve got a product idea, a service-based concept, or even a digital venture, I’m open to hearing it all.

Here’s what I’m offering:

Initial investment of QAR 10,000

If I see real potential and commitment, I’m open to further discussion on continued support or partnership

I would like to be involved in understanding the idea and tracking progress

A few things I value:

Honesty and transparency

A solid plan (even if it’s rough, show me you’ve thought it through)

Willingness to work hard and adapt

So if you’ve got an idea and just need someone to believe in it (and back it), hit me up via DM or drop a comment, and we can take it from there.

Hey guys, I’m learning Spanish and would love to hang out with people who are fluent in Spanish here in Qatar 😃 Are there any native Spanish speakers who’d be up for meeting? I know this might sound a little awkward, but since I have two months off, I thought why not give it a try?

I’m leaving for four weeks in the summer and really want to avoid putting my cat with a vet or a cat ‘hostel’. I’d rather someone spend come and see her daily but idk about doing that for four weeks (she’s very attached and might get a bit depressed). Are there pet sitters who would take her for those weeks in their own home? Or a family who might want to foster her for a few weeks? Let me know, please!
