how you can love the place because of "most of the mobile shops are all together in one place"?...lol... and how come you fill tank of your car for 30 'bucks'.. what a monster with 136L tank do you have?? I usually fill in my tank for 30 Riyal (which is 3.65 times less)

Of course stay, where else on this earth can we get good money for doing nothing, there is a lot of crap to put up with,, but that’s why god invented alcohol.

Well as it is quite clear there is a move getting steam over days to make expats believe it's not worth it anymore to stay. Those who can afford to stay should be one of four types of people the first are the untouchables, second professional ass kissers, third those willing to give good juicy concessions in overnight services and fourth the slaves who for them slavery no matter how bad here is better than nothing back home. Not belonging to any of the above categories, and lacking a good offer that makes life here worthwhile someone should seriously consider going back home especially when someone is only managing to satisfy consumption needs as for food ..etc, which can be satisfied back home. At least not to waste precious years serving in a place that won't hesitate to award your long years of services with an administrative deportation.
For a laid back person like me i like the life here, i like the life back home too but Qatar has more to offer not only for MONEY, but the way of living and to certain extents the standards too. I like how you find everything u want under one roof, i like how most of the mobile shops are all together in one place so i dont have to run around and there is a choice and competition between the shops. I know if i'm looking to buy a part for my computer, i'm going to get a better offer in the next shop :p I know i can fill up my tank with petrol for 30 bucks. Bebsi is 1 riyal, and i have a choice of a variety of different cultural food.
I STAY!

Stay Stay Stay! I would swap my UK passport for a Qatari one if they would have me. I have a daydream where I save the life of someone important and in return they make me a honorary Qatari. Yes I know, not going to happen but it is nice thought.
I'll rather stay, got a good offer after my ordeal on my previous company, trouble now the immigration won't let me transfer sponsorship and others like me with less than 2 years tenure...according to someone in my previous company in-charge of settlements and NOC.
Qatar's winter months are brimming with unmissable experiences, from the AFC Asian Cup 2023 to the World Aquatics Championships Doha 2024 and a variety of outdoor adventures and cultural delights.

You can't teach experience...
as long as the money is green! I'll stay in Qatar.
for all those who posted "stay", what is there profession and how much are they getting pay?
Also, are they single or living there with their family? would these factors be the main source of their decision?
Any of the single who has voted "stay" here or just the family one.
I still wonder...
You can't teach experience...

Qatar will be least economic crisis affected country. So be here wisely.
And also I like Qatar.

I would like to stay here! I love the peaceful life of Qatar.
ya better stay! no jobs in uk
guys, no argument please..thank you.
I don't care about it. I won't argue with you.
This is the law and there's nothing you can do to change it.
I'll say something I hate to say, but it's relevant to this thread: if you don't like it just leave.
Bleu- You like to argue and debate... but that also baseless... bring your logic and lets people decide...
I know truth is bitter and it hurts.
askme, not here too. you're sick.
stay !! stay !!!
Ask me anyday..
i'd still say STAY !!
think about it this way..if u manage to stay now and grow with the country, you can be way ahead of the crowd when things become better and bigger.
Calculate the price of becoming SLAVE then decide...
YES/NO?

Is it mandatory to stay here? are you not free to leave anytime??
I hate the place where there is no justice and equality.
