What a coincident morane, I just bout a pair of polarised sunglasses the other day!
Mistercary, I am not an eng. I am in the IT filed! sorry I wish I could help.
From my experience, do not try to build your professional experience in the middle east, build it somewhere else and go to the ME to make a kill. You need to prepared to go to places where the average Eng. will not go.
