Saudi Arabia Job Experience – Sand on the tip of my shoes

A great Boss a true manager

He came in Saudi Arabia from Netherland packed with great administrative plans and equipped with experienced and knowledge, the true boss model, fatherly-like motivation and full of energy.

Way back from December to May, I always have a confident going to office and sat on my work station, because he is in the there near to us. Working in an office with lots of plan everyday, can heal your mind from thinking of homesick or afraid from the owners present.

Being with this guy can motivate you to do things for the better (to this company) not looking at the present situation but for the future he predicted. He has great plans and hope to all those people who failed. Generally, our company needs some management modification with many reasons. I do not want to mention or blame anyone but I believe that we need him for a better one.

As the web designer of this company, he contributed a lot of things to fulfill the needs of my work. He let me used his personal SLR camera to take picture for images I needed in the website. Most of the pictures I took for the website were taken using this camera. Some of the correction and suggestion to modify are his help. And lastly he again let me use it for creating a brochure for the company. He also contributed a lot to this work, from layout to the type of picture we used.

Now he’s leaving

A memo from the owner tells him that his contract was terminated. After 6 months of professional service, this is the reward he received that we didn’t expect. After he managed to arrange things and resolving financial issues, he will finally leave Riyadh on Wednesday. We will miss him a lot. He is the only manager that can give you of telling jokes to his subordinates, tell story to ordinary employee, and treated everyone here fairly. He is close to the Filipino workers, maybe he saw it that we do things he assigned professionally or we work things smarter that other nationality. There are also a lot of people here don’t like him, I don’t know why they didn’t see what he is capable of, but I think that the management cannot afford his salary rate anymore.

A farewell gathering at the rooftop with a macaroni dinner. This will be the last get together gathering with Mr. Erik

Anyway, what ever the wrong and the right reason of his leaving, it will be for the good of others and for the will of God.

Goodbye Mr. Erik van der Heiden

We will miss you generally. Hope that we can meet soon to a better future for us and for our family.

The Kingdom, full of history and culture, with wealth extracted from its oil bounty. They said that it was blessed by the Almighty for its people thru this oil.

As our days and months had become longer with this place, we became a part of it., we became part of the sand and oil. The frequent sand storm, the air we breathe with the warm wind came from the desert; our blood has now the spirit of the desert. Sand, covering the sight in every direction on what you see, dust full of desert sand, covering blindly all your personal things, including your meals.

Here you can see that from a far away I can still manage to take picture of the building.

In this picture, you cnnot see the building due to dust and warm wind

Plastic from oil, most of the plastic products we use here are came from a raw material which are waste from oil refinery. We eat using plastic containers, we buy with plastic bags, almost every thing you can see in the garbage bin are made from plastic, our body as now partly plastic. Some people here like pinoy had also now a plastic mentality.

We always use plastic for food keeping and even during eating. And think of this, our company is a plastic manufacturing firm.

Pollution from industries are also part of the air we breathe, industries are rapidly growing in the city. Hope people in here knows that we are slowly killing our body, and our spirit.

The main source of power in second industral city here in Riyadh.

The picture below is the Artwork department, its where graphic designs are made for printing. I temp to work some things here because it is a very cool place and manage work well. It is also a good place to hide from the owner who always seeks someone he meet to give problem to, hehehe. Anyway as long as your comfortable to work and make things done, it is better to hide from disturbance.

Cool place to work, good place to hide from trouble.
