Yup. So they tell us not to eat or drink anything in public during daylight so we don't offend anyone but it's ok for them to shit all over the god damn toilet seat in the bathroom and I'm supposed be ok with that??

There is pressure on you to observe Ramadan? I find that hard to believe.

P.S. We needed another Ramadan thread! Those others were getting stale.

Hell yes. I just fried up 2 lbs of bacon for the grease, a couple days ago. It smelled really nice.

Not pressured to observe it, but, we have been told to not eat or drink in public during the day. Whether you believe it or not is up to you. I know what I was told.

Also, didn't force you to click on the thread so I can't help you there either.

Dude, seriously? They told you at work not to eat or drink in public so as not to offend them?

Really, what do you do....if it is your employeer saying that I'd tell 'em to fuck off, and eat a few sausage and bacon McMuffins for breakfast, pork chops for lunch, and pork rinds for snacks...all while in the most public of areas.

Don't offend them...indeed. Also don't take offense when they drive planes into buildings, or if they happen to kill your kids at school, or blow up your parents on a bus...

Who told you not to eat or drink in public?

No one has told me that.


On a side note October is Sarcasm Month!

Yes, I was told that by my employer. I'm a contractor working in the Middle East.

And all this time I thought Ramadan was that noodle stuff in the square plastic package.   I used to eat that stuff all the time in the field.  

Don't they have Ramadan noodles with the pork seasoning packet?

1 canteen cup of water + heat tab + Ramadan noodles = good eating!

Ahh, well that explains it....You might want to be careful there...one of those fuckers may grab you and cut off your head with a dull knife for offending their religion....

Yeah we are as careful as we can be. Here in Kuwait it's not too bad but ya just never know. Basically for the next few weeks it'll be straight to work and straight back to our living quarters. No fucking around with the ROP'ers who haven't eaten all day.
