what are the challenges / problems that you face in your daily routine (professional / personal)

of course there are many problems

but the big problem is the routine

nothing to enjoy in Doha, life is just work and back to home and sleep. nothing else.

1. long hours of work.

2. checking an average of 300 drawings a day.

3. sitting almost the whole day.

4. proving something is wrong with the design, but ur boss dont wants to bring it out with the client, because company will lose money..it wasted my 1 week, and it delayed some of my jobs..

5. listening to a person who thinks he knows everything under the arabian sun.

6. eating in a mess hall where the food are really a "mess"..hehehe

7. going home, riding the company vehicle with some indian guy who smells like curry mixed with chile powder. and breathes like a dragon but instead of fire coming out.., its onion smell.. hehehe

8. going inside my accomodation in ain khalid.. where is no near grocery, no near restaurant. i got to walk at least 1km to reach salwa rd. the nearest escape to civilization..hehehhe

the main problem is the repetitive daily routine , it is a problem , go to work come back go again come back , the boring town: construction sites every where, terreble roads, being single is also ... heh ,, a lot of problems indeed

thanks gulf line for asking - - - :)

anyway, i find dealing different people with different character a great challenge - as what they say : different strokes for different folks -

1)The long working hours.

2)Days are almost all the same.

3)The pressure of dealing with people.

4)Life here is almost all about work.

5)Wondering whether you made the right choice when you decided to put your work first.

6)The what if question.

7)The now what question.

8)The what's next question.

That's about it

Finding that the company you were supposed to operate has putten all the plans on hold (for several reasons); you have been here for 3&half months now, coming everyday to spend 8 hours in the office doing absolutely nothing...They don't tell you to leave or stay...nor give you an alternative thing to do...

When you tell people that, the answer is at least you are earning your salary, as bored, experience and time loss you are facing. What you are talking about is ridiculous!!!!

Finally, with the economic crisis we are facing, the downsizing and stop hiring plans, you are afraid that they will tell you to go back to your country.

You lost your previous job, and hard luck with this one.

On God I rely....

I work in Advertising, its very difficult to convince my client servicing people everyday..

Al most its very disgusting win win situation

very happy with everything in my everyday life..i live near to my office its just 7minutes drive, i have my car Alhamdolilah so no problem of transport or anything except people arround me at work, some perticular nationality who dont even feel bad using their native language while working , while handover and take over the work, people who always gossip, no matter how good you do still to them its nothing, and not only that: they are too dirty mind,heart and body, stink, smell bad....very hard for me but what to do!

getting out of bed and going to work is my biggest challenge

Arriving alive at my office and getting home alive too. Crazy truck drivers..

/Many near misses - they simply change lanes without signaling, force their way out of junctions just because they are big and mean, etc.etc. Sigh!

Arriving alive is the biggest challenge!

driving along sea line road everyday..all those trucks and crazy drivers...very bad combination..

Since I don't have a car,looking for taxi everyday going to the jobsite is the most frustrating part of my daily routine..

what about you chinitasai?

everytime i see my boss and smell him, disgusting.
