I just like to know how was it like working as a barista in doha qatar. I will be soon deployed there and we were just waiting for our plane ticket. I just want to know all the preparations i have to do which things i should bring and the things i should'nt bring. we don't know yet when our flight will be but the agency said our visa is already approved and we already take the pre departure orientation seminar. so probably by next week we'll fly there. oh im really getting a bit nervous and excited... kindly give me some advice and inspirational motivations.. waahh is there really a lot of filipino workers there whom i could make friends with? i really would loved to hear their stories. I've been in singapore for only 6 months for my ojt and i did really enjoy my stay there, and i was hoping working in qatar is also fun but im just worried because in singapore majority speak english im not sure in qatar, do they speak english often than arabic?
