Kuwait's weather will be in the 103-106 F range today. Enjoy, Cutie!
The kitchen renter is a joke, but not a very funny one. She should have said the kitchen was possessed by a jinn or filled with stray cats.
Chantal would rather set everything she owns on fire than let another woman use it, even if that other woman was paying her "rent". Chins hates women almost as much as she loves food. The jeet wives in the building will also be thinner and feminine.
Most of the flats do not have kitchen appliances, and they usually have multiple families in one unit.
It's amazing how many people don't know that sketchy country middle-class apartments come with nothing pre-installed but toilets, a shower nozzle and a sink. Sometimes they have a kitchen counter, but not always.
The lower-class apartments are lucky to have a bathroom. Remember when Salah lived in that one room apartment with zero windows? That was decent for lower class apartments in the 3rd world/developing world.
Kuwait is a 3rd world country in anything other than GDP and shopping malls, as we've seen. It's a garbage strewn wasteland where half the population lives in crowded filth, and many workers are basically slaves with their passports stolen.
Chantal knows this by now. She's stupid, but not THAT stupid that she can't see all the garbage and jeets/Nigerians/Filipinos living in chaotic hell around her. She sees the line of multiple buses in her parking lot filling with 80 workers each.
Sometimes she lets it slip that some area is fancy or rich AKA it's an area for actual Kuwait citizens. She knows she's stuck in foreign worker hell. She's visibly less comfortable in the nicer areas that she occasionally visits (Mexican restaurant, nice coffee shop at the mall) because she doesn't feel so superior to actual Kuwaitis. She knows Salah is considered foreigner trash in Kuwait.
