Re: Arrived in Dubai!
messing about... what a luxury, I regularly sit at my desk desperate to pee, 3-4 hrs later I still haven't had a chance. It's just a matter of time til I wee at my desk!

Re: Arrived in Dubai!
Lol! Well day one is now over and I'm home! Smoking is on the office balcony and people seem to do it quite often but I'm afraid I don't join as I don't smoke! Took a packed lunch today but didn't need it as I was thrust into my first lunch meeting. My screen is quite visible and I was very much thrown into the deep end today so didn't have time for Facebooking/BritExpating/Other 
Hey ho, I'm sure I will figure out how and when I can doss off but in the meantime I'm a little wet behind the ears and therefore eager to make a good impression. Dossing shall probably commence in a month or so! However saying that, I observed everybody today and nobody seemed to be messing about. It seems quite serious 
Saff

No dossing in my office either, people are amazingly focused compared to the UK. I feel almost (almost) guilty having a look at the news during my lunch.

Doesn't everyone? We have a tea girl as well who brings tea three times a day plus we can visit the toilet whenever we like! Was the main reason I moved out here.
What kind of job do you have that does not allow you to go to the toilet?

You do not have a million urgent things. You might have half a dozen. If you have many more than this, you or your fellow workers have some time management issues - or you have the wrong fellow workers. Or you have the wrong you.
