Never worked out there myself, my old man used to work on hovercraft out there in the 70's so maybe it's worth a crack.
Based in Dubai and flying into Saudi, Bahrain, Qatar for on the job training and assessment. 3-5 years if you can handle the flies, the heat and the body odour.
What's a good wage for that kind of work..? No big fish tales please.
Accommodation, pension etc taken care of, just bottom line. I'm thinking £45k to make it worth living in the number one most geologically and intellectually barren place in the world, and get some savings in the bank back home.
So what's it like? Boring? I could do with staying off the booze for a while anyway. Go to the gym, sniff lettuce.. upside is plenty of flights out of Dubai, might even get back to ol' SEA.
I can't see it as a long term prospect though. Is it one of those places where you have to focus on the money and then get out of Dodge?
Thoughts please.
