Good life. Sweet memories. Happy thoughts. True friends. Bright future. Better work. What else would I imagine for a better life and a bright future ahead. Although it accompany with great effort and vast sacrifices. We need to make a single step in order to pursue our dreams. We must be courageous and brave all the time, be prepared in all obstacles and overcome those hardships in life. This is how it goes.
So I came back again here in Saudi Arabia to fulfill my dreams and goals in life. It's my second time here to in Saudi Arabia. I stayed here for two years and two months working. I am the only Filipino here in our company. All of my subordinates are Egyptians. My employer is an Arab and his business partner in an Egyptian wherein, the Egyptian has a bigger share. Maybe he only merged with him just to establish a business here in Saudi. Because establishing a business here is very expensive and you have to undergo a very long process of legal procedures unless an Arab man is the one to arrange those papers. This is because of their strict implementations of rules and regulations regarding about their social cultures and religious beliefs. So most of the businessman here are co-partnered with an Arab or incorporated with an existing Arab company. That is why Saudi Arabia is one of the richest country in the world and also because of their land-rich oil. Amazing right?!
So going back to my topic, as it goes, working here Saudi is very hard because of their very strict rules. Men are not allowed to wear shorts in the streets, alcoholic beverages are prohibited and punishable by law, no places to hang-out, most of the mall-time are exclusively for Saudi's or for family. Taking pictures is not allowed unless otherwise you have permission from the policeman or security guards. This strict rules must be followed all the time unless you want to sleep in jail for a night. These are the common things you must know before working or visiting Saudi Arabia. Working here is a bit boring yet interesting because you'll learn more about their culture and tradition, their traits and behavior, their manners and way of living. Being able to work here for more than two years, I observed different and crucial things. Most of them prefer conversing regarding about religion rather than working. They talk most of the time, it seems like they're not getting tired at all. That's why I always feel irritated everyday. Hahaha. But in return, I can save much for my future, because the worker don't pay for their taxes, instead, the company or the employer shoulders all of it. So we get our full salary without any deductions or cuts unless you have cash advance. It is one of the nicest things in here aside from gaining experiences and enhancing most of your skills and knowledge. This are the things that can't be stolen. It will grow and mature but not fade. That is why I came back here, to learn, to grow and to save for my future... Because nobody knows what lies ahead. . .
