Employed, Self Employed Or Not Employed
This is something I have often noticed in Kuwait when I am having a conversation with someone or hearing two people talking and lets see how do you all answer it.
If you are not Employed and Self Employed would you say to others you are Not Employed and why?
Even if you have a small business that you have started recently why wouldn't you tell others that you are self employed?
Is it because people tend to avoid telling others till they have a well settled business?

or like you said, it could be that they want to make sure it's a success...to avoid looking like failures.
plus there's the 'evil-eye" thingy.
or..maybe they're too proud to admit that they NEED to work...lol!
Maya: The only thing that makes sense to me in this is evil eye :D
Sadia: Work is work....even if its working as a construction worker. I would be proud of what I do and if I know my work and have the confidence whats better than it! or like you said they are too proud to admit that they need to work ;p
but people tend to hide this until their business is strong, ymkn 3n elfesheela w elshemata :D
well i guess it's either because of the evil eye (el 3ain wil 7asad) or that they just want to wait for their business to get a bit stronger and successful then mention it : )
or both together : p
but I think some people don't say it not to be caught by envious!
--or--
2) dont want ppl to steal their ideas
--or --
3) dont want ppl to ask them for favors (give me the "thing" for free)
--or--
4) dont want ppl to ask them about details .. why? how? when? 3awar ras
--or--
5) dont want ppl to envy them
--or--
