We decided to start this blog so we can keep in touch with family and friends. Our hope is that you will be able to see what our life is like in Israel.

Fun facts and funny occurrences

I thought I would share some odd things about Israel as they occur to me. In doing my CV (resume), I was advised that it must contain my birthday, so the potential employer will know my age, my family status (i.e. married and how many children I have).

I finally got my health insurance this past Sunday. There was one clerk to handle all of the people calling and coming in to ask questions or register. The phone was ringing off the hook, so she had a clever way of resolving the constant ringing. She turned the ringer volume down, so it could barely be heard. I got quite a laugh from that. Just another example of the exemplary customer service attitude that exists in Israel.
