At least we have jobs ...

think of those who have been jobless for quite sometimes.... and those who have been forced to sell their homes and carsfor the sake of keeping some food on the table...I guess we are blessed.. CHEERS 2 ALL

One should know the release and NOC thing which i never knew till the time i arrived in Qatar. Now i see i would have easily got much better job and salary than what i am currently getting but my employer benefited from my lack of knowledge. Now i cannot work elsewhere unless i get a NOC from my employer which he will never give.
