This Hiring Post For An Egyptian Bawab Got Everyone Rethinking Their Life Choices!

Who knew a simple job post could send the internet into a frenzy? When a villa in El Alamein advertised for a doorkeeper—complete with family—and dangled a jaw-dropping EGP 40,000 monthly salary, everyone started questioning their career choices. The post quickly went viral, and the comments section turned into a comedy show.

Job post stunned social media

It all started with a straightforward ad: ‘Wanted: doorkeeper and his family in a villa in El Alamein, salary 40 thousand per month.’ That’s right, EGP 40K—for a bawab job! In a country where this role usually comes with a modest paycheck, this offer was enough to make anyone do a double take. The fact that the job included the whole family only added to the buzz, hinting at extra perks like accommodation and maybe even a taste of that villa life.

Comments section went wild

People didn’t hold back. The replies were pure gold: from ‘I’m packing my bags!’ to ‘I’ll bring my whole family, and my neighbor’s too!’ Some joked about graduating from the ‘Faculty of Doorkeepers,’ while others claimed their childhood dream was to be a bawab. The internet united in laughter, with everyone imagining themselves living large by the sea, cane in hand, sunglasses on.

El Alamein, famous for its luxury resorts, suddenly became the hottest destination for career switchers. If you ever doubted the power of a viral job post, this one just proved that even the most unexpected gigs can get everyone talking—and maybe even dreaming of a new life as the most well-paid bawab on the block!
