GASP!
to get a better feel of what i may be getting myself into, i have been googling everything dubai. and i found this - from an expat-living-in-dubai blog:
"Those unconfined by the UAE's rigid and regressive internet censorship will be unaware of the absolute block of the P-word.
In the UAE it is impossible to search Google for information on the James Bond film Octopussy. It is impossible to look for a picture of Honor Blackman playing Pussy Galore. It is impossible to search Thesaurus.com to find an alternative to "pussyfoot". It is impossible to view the photos that a friend puts online of her pussycat, as pussycat2.jpg* etc will all be blocked."
OHHH... MYYYY.... GAWWDD!!!!

Friend,
Why you have to be scared? If you are not fit, how could they offer you the job.You know better of you self. Friends can find, here and there…think back of the economic-wise and experience-wise…

heheh... pussy is definitely not in my list keywords for googling. but if they block pussy, chances are they would be blocking all other terms yang 'sangkatan' engannya... and that's what i'm afraid of. what do i do if i feel a little bit naughty there? ;P
sekatil: thanks for the advice :) i'll let you know about my decision.
