I've heard horror stories of security walking off because THEY haven't been paid in mos. so I guess it would be worse?

That's just a programming glitch

You know I'm right!

Hey you know what I've been meaning to say?  How much I LOVE the variety of vegetables available in this country due to all the different nationalities.  Always fresh and reasonably priced.  I love it!  (almost enough to become a vegetarian but not quite )

me eat meat.

Okay, Tarzan

I probably know a lot more than you think I know about computers/programming/etc.

I got pleasantly surprized when you too noticed the file name to determine that it's intended to be a *candy*.

yes, you are right. It'a a closed loop in programming

repeating gifs are better when there are other items involved

You need to think about this, TLL.  Why would I be eating candy with chopsticks?  It's supposed to be SUSHI even though somebody named the image 'candy.'

Definitely sushi it is, and we know Alliecat being nostalgic about her favorite US sushi a few topics ago, this explain that ( sorry for my English, in french it's sounds better !)

Sure, I knew that's what you were referring to!  TLL just got thrown off by the gif tag

Bienvenu en Arabie Saoudite !

Did you see that TLL ?! you already starting to speak French, I am the best french teacher in the magic kingdom

Ah... you modified my text....CHEATING!

i think he's in dammam..

yes, i'll be living and working in dammam. Might travel to dubai occasionally.
I guess allieact was inviting for some coffee

If you are talking about Dubai, Alliecat lives in Riyadh not Dubai.
And if you are expecting an invitation in Riyadh, Saimans is the one sending bogus e-invitations

on track for june to be in the kingdom. Still gotta pick up a projector, and my packing will be complete.

Hey Sushi, look at this email I got:

http://monstercooljobs.com/marussiaf1team/US-EN/

Your DREAM job, I think!

i learned a whlie ago, dont mix passion with work. Makes you not want to pursue your passion after said work.

while will be cool, my time working for a race team just on the weekends in japan made me realize it sucks

My experience has been the opposite

I agree with Allie!

No Bogus e-parties / parties !! People don't show up or turn up after so many discussions and confirmations, that the whole idea becomes fictitious.

How about catching up for the game of squash (not e-squash ), try to take out some time from your busy schedule !!!

I don't mind If you guys are having a hearty laugh at the cost of me !!!

Digression RANT:  I am getting sooooooooo annoyed with the people these days (and there seems to be more and more) who just barge into the forum and ask their questions without taking five minutes to look at pre-existing discussions.

This doesn't take a genius to read prior threads and it has nothing to do with how accessible the forum is set up.

What it has to do with is lazy-ass people who think everybody is here at their disposal!

If these people can't even read a forum to find what they need, how in God's name do they survive day-to-day in our information laden world??

Whew!  I feel much better now

Well.. to be fair.. This being Saudi and all, when it does come to rules and stuff, it change from morning to noon to the next day. But yeah I know what you saying. reading the same questions over and over again...

Digression: Once I asked a Saudi friend of mine who was rushing: Why are you in a hurry? I want to arrive home as soon as possible, watch TV as much as possible and then sleep as much as possible he answered.

Not much else to do here is there?

I barely watch TV here, and not every day. When I leave work I don't usually come straight home, I usually go out socializing with friends, and that is what keeps me alive in this country.

Happy Cinco de Mayo!! Now, if I was at home, I'd be out socializing and drinking margaritas!!!
