I don't get to work shorter hours during Ramadan, but at least there is no traffic now when I leave.

You mean Qatarhappening isn't happening for you today. I feel your frustration. Never mind - the week-end is here. Maybe take a nice drive up the coast this evening ;o)
Ya I know. But home there'd be a point in them doing that. Now I'm just soooo bored out of my skull because I can't get anything done because nobody is working.

and there may be some in UK who would make a fuss, but I think the fact remains that MOST Muslims in non-Muslim countries would continue working alongside there non-Mulsim co-workers during Ramadan, and that's what it is I'm getting at. :D
If the request isn't granted the company would end up with a lawsuit on it's hands. Better to just give them shorter working hours.

Of course they can request it, like I could request Christmas off here - doesn't mean every company will comply with the request though.
And, anyway, there will always be exceptions to the rule. Most I know in UK will be AT school/work or wherever with a prayer room at their disposal.
I don't think I'll last the 1st week though! :(
Not true, I know Muslims in Canada can request for shorter hours and stuff during Ramadan.

In non-muslim orientated countries the muslims will be working usual office/college (or whatever they do) hours WHILST fasting, so I guess it works out even all round :D
LOL QT..:)
by the way, i am fasting as well.. no promisses to keep it to the end of Ramadan, but at least as much as i can..:)
I don't mind working the extra hours, what bothers me is that there is no point being at work past 1 or 2 as you can't get anything done since nobodies in their offices.

not eat for the whole day will make me look slimmer, so its a good thing...
too, and I'm sure he may accommodate you!
Qatarisun, I know dear, I just thought I'd explain what you meant! :)
and that's what exactly i meant by my question, QT
ok, so i'll not eat the whole day then..
i totally agree....

...yesterday!
Right, my two cents worth coming up now!
Muslims fast during the day, non-muslims don't (usually)
Fsting is difficult and makes you extremey tired during the day if you have to work.
Work still needs to be done, as muslim and non-muslim clients expect it to be done.
If you don't fast, it's only fair that you work normal hours! IMHO
:)
...thought too!
:P
eh??...
Applaud to supernurse and bow down to her.. (hhhmm... she is a great lady..)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heard your wife left you,
How upset you must be.
But don't fret about it...
She moved in with me.
not complaining here just asking..
Don't bloody complain...at least you have a job....and obviously not in the baking sun...we should all count our blessings......
i think it's fair.. i'm not muslim, i keep eating, drinking and doing whatever i used to do before ramadan so.. why should i have different working hours?
happy weekend to all QL workers!
**Sic dixit Zarathustra**

Sorry sweetie, had to step out for a quick bit...but now am back!!!
Alright you were saying,...!!!
thanks cola...
there some of my flatmates who are having problems like you in this ramadan office timings. But most of them who are working same 8 or 9 hrs still are in company managed by white people (im talking about american & europeans)
dont feel that much hard or you will just get irritated the whole month because you are not alone. this ramadan office timings are depend on your company policy. You have no choice unless you try & work w/ other companies. Nevertheless you cant do also if you are under their sponsorship :)
So, better ignore the office timings ok? time is running fast & you will not notice ramadan is over ok? ngiti lang girl! :)
i dont mind hijacking my own thread, or anybody else hijacking my thread for that matter... it's ok,..after all, it's just a thread.
Ohh !!.. thank you thank you...
anyway, i will not sulk in one corner just because of that... it's his opinion anyway, i dont care.. i can still do what i want.
i thin he dint meant that hope he just kiddin .. be cool and do post MJ
You've now successfully hijacked your own thread mjamille!
Better to ignore than to fan the flames.

Don't worry, it's what we Aussies like to call "taking the p*ss" it's not meant in a bad way, we do it to everyone, friends, relo's, people we never even met before.....

dont we all earn points?
My wife's company have now realised that making them work normal hours and having to pay 4 hours overtime isn't very good from a financial point of view. Rumours are they're cutting back to 8 hours from Saturday.
You think they'd work these things out beforehand, wouldn't you?!
well i was a target yesterday, but that doesn't mean i have to be picked on all the time...if they have problem with me or my postings then they should never bother replying..
Jamillee ..........
I guess KSA is a little worried tat u might earn more points then him ....LoL
KSA when u can type so much and we Miskeen guyz have to read all tat, why not too many treads ?? LoL .....
J/k
everyone is, bored hungry, off nicotine and needs someone or something to vent at..your just an easy target..
