Accommodation are separated into 2 location, 1 for the staff personnel and the other are for laborers. I live in the laborers villa (as they said) but i am the only one who accomodate 1 room, the rest are by 2 or three persons. When i arrived here, Bernard told me that they will provide ref and Aircon, but until now none of there are realized, even a steel cabinets they wont provide.
Now, due to the instruction of the owner, all staff villa occupants are advisd to get there things ready and transfer to the laboreres villa. That cool, or what. All of us now are here in this 5 floor bldg. Im at the top, and see the pics below on how they manage to get there things put in this villa bldg.

Our School bus like transport.
"Sa maka una lang" this is Reggy my office mate.
Our transport from Villa and Office is via a school bus type truck service hehehe. You have to catch up before 8:45AM before the driver will leave for office. From the office would be the same bus service and its 5:30PM
A Google earth screen shot of our location
Our mean of transport of going to the city is by taxi, they call it here limousine. You can ride for the city proper for 20 to 35 riyals one way. If you have some company, that would be 5 riyals per person. Going back from the city proper to the villa is the same trough a taxi with 5 riyals per person or if you ca afford to ride it as a single passenger, you may pay 20 to35 riyals per travel but considering the risk, its not practical.

Ernest My New Job
Office days are from Saturday to Wednesday 8:00Am to 5:30PM with 1 hour lunch break and extra time for coffee break. Thursday would be between 8:30Am to 2:00PM only. Friday is the weekend for Muslim country, so here, instead of Sunday for us, its Friday, and we expect that we should work on Sunday. I miss Sunday masses again. Can I stay longer here for 2 years? That would depend on my evaluation here hehehe. Maybe 2 years is long enough to decide if I stay longer here.
