Oh well, looks like redundancy rears it's ugly head aagin. Anyone need their Cars washed, or their ironing done?
Actually, that's a brilliant idea. I could establish a laundry service, pop round and pick it up myself, and just add it in with my stuff at home. I doubt the maid would notice.

Well, not really. It's not like the UK where they look after you! I'll get enough to keep me going to Barracuda for a month or so!
I've got several busioness plans which I think would be good earners......but that's generally where they come to an end!
Might be worthwhile hanging around outisde the Dubai ladies club...think there's much demand for a 40 year old, fat, receeding ex-employee??!!

Sorry to hear bud, seems uncertain times for a few banks, affecting things under my roof as well.
Thanks mate.Damn, fingers crossed for you. I think the chances of finding a similar job (and pay) slim to none in this environment, so looking to do anything else really. Funny, as I left the UK as I was bored of working in Banking.....and I find myself back in the same kind of job!
Good luck.

Chilli, please change your profile pic, I clicked on your profile to see what you do and got an eyefull, and I'm at work! (git).
I have a guy who works for PWC moving in in 2 weeks, want me to ask for you?...what do you do in the financial sector btw!? haha
I want to set up a business selling ice-creams from a van, apparently very lucrative and nobody in Qatar doing it yet (but I dont have the stones to quit my job and go for it).
Hello mate, yeah keep meaning to change that picture! I have a guy who works for PWC moving in in 2 weeks, want me to ask for you?...what do you do in the financial sector btw!? haha

Thanks forth PWC offer, but due to a lack of any proper qualifications, I'll struggle to get through the door!
Re the ice cream van, can you not buy all the gear now and hire someone to drive it for you? I'm not sure if Qatar is also over-run with cheap labour. Actually, ask Mattt....... He could do a shift or two!
