To whom are you responding?
Do you really think I should try to translate "..I take ur job coz me no have work visa in ur country" into:
"..I take your job, because I do not have a work permit for your beautiful country",
and then start to comprehend the question?

No, thanks!

And to the space cowboy: you can start showing the courtesy you demand from others, by writing understandable English.
After all, "this world is not only for English speaking community", now, is it?
