Frustrations

Things that you would expect to have to be done time and again and for which there should be a slick process fall short of the mark, basic things like having an internet connection, a landline, a gate pass, even a desk. Its very much make do and mend at the moment. An Irish guy called Niall turned up today. He has got the right idea. He flys in for about 10 days a month does the job then flys out again. We have complimentary skills so I think I’ll be working with him for a while.
Im taken to get my car. There seems some surprise that I do not have my driving licence in spite of me telling them on Sunday that it was at home! I can see the car, but they cant release it to me. I shall continue to have a driver for the time being which suits me just fine. They drive like lunatics here and I cant read the arabian roadsigns!
