As a Qatari myself

 

 not packing my own shopping

I pack if there is no one there or alot of groceries. Also give a riyal to the helper.

 

not doing my own ironing

I don't iron here unless I need something straight away

 

spending more time on internet at work

I couldn't even if I wanted to. Work blocks most of things. 

 

being more defensive

I'm optimistic and calm I think. A good rant to a friend helps now and then.

 

drinking more alcohol

don't drink 

 

eating more food

I think I eat about the same as I did when I was in the UK 

 

not indicating cos no one else does and it will confuse them

Always 100% indicate. I'm trying to get people to get used to it and encourage them. If someone indicates I'll let them in front of me rather than someone trying to squeeze.

 

smoking more cos cigarettes are cheao

Don't smoke 

 

actually driving like an idiot if i resat my test i would fail

When people swirve on veer, I never change my lane and honk my horn to get people used to following the lines. I try to encourage better driving. 

 

Gym once every other day, football once a week, I should mention I smoke sheesha like once every two weeks.

 

@ellie, that's specific to the Gulf, not Qatar.

 

@muno, sometimes people get their bags taken out because they have no choice. The grocer quickly picks it up and we don't want to be rude and say no I'll take it, so we let them carry it and give them 5 riyals.
