Museum Guards in Egypt

I have never seem such a motley crew as the guards in Egypt, these jobs are given to the poor relatives of museum staff I believe, the reason is they do nothing, when we went to see the Tutenkamoun treasure the guard was solid asleep with 200 people making lots of moise and probably able to steal some treasure, not only was he sat down and solid asleep he had his head laid on a cabinet from the displey, oh how I laughed, then the worst was the guard on the Karnak temple in Luxor, he was sat down and had his boots off with his stinking naked feet laid out in front of all to see, but the worst part was that he had his finger shoved to the second knuckle up his nose, for all to see what he could find in there, just outrageous activity, these are really peasants. wish i had taken a photo.
