    Ever been to Saudi Arabia?

    Would be nice to go over there and live there. What kind of jobs would they have over there for a westerner?

    I think a good number of Saudis hate Americans. I wouldn't want to go over there.

    Spent two years of my life there....tons of contractors over there from Aramco to Boeing and more. The only thing is the lifestyle is nothing like the US and you can easily get in trouble if you're not careful. Alot of the folks that go over there do it to save cash, and not for the lifestyle. I was in Riyadh, and they were really strict there because the Royal Family lived there.

    Yupp, a few of my friends who graduated with electrical engineering degree's had opportunities in Saudi Arabia. I heard the pay was incredible, but none of them took the offers.

    I've heard most of the time you stay in a company "compound" for security reasons. No thanks.

    you gotta admit those guys in saudi arabia have their women in check. if their women do anything wrong they get slapped up over there. here in the states the women have men by the balls.

    No and don't really plan on going there in my lifetime. Lots of nicer places for vacation or work. I like women and occasional parties.

    How does someone become an engineer? That would be great living there and getting paid way more than here.
