Help SMB decide his future

Professor Smarmiarty · 02-03-2012, 10:32 AM

So I coming to the end of my contract here and looking for new jobs and have a few options. But instead of deciding for myself, I'm going to let NPF decide my future.
I would put in a totally binding poll but I don't know how.
Option A: Alternative energy in Saudi Arabia.
Pro:
Topic is really interesting
I get to work with my old supervisor who is ace and will look after me.
They'll give me living expenses while I@m finishing off some writing for my contract
Con:
It's fucking saudi arabia.

Option B: MAGMA at UCL
Pro:
UCL is badass
London is full of crazy fucks
Con:
I'll have mega visa issues becuase europeans are racist whereas saudis love everyone
Don't get paid much and London is expensive.

Option C: Find a real job you lazy fuck
Pro:
Lots of money
Con:
Selling out my class

Option D:
Become a drifter.
Pro:
Drifters are like the fairy godmothers of the street.
Con:
Drifters are like the fairy godmothers of the street.

I thought you already moonlighted as a drifter on weekends.

Try to combine B and D.

Or better yet, A and D.

A is clearly the most responsible choice; As this is a "REAL LIFE" thread I literally cannot recommend anything but A.

Which keeps you away from the forum for the longest?

A sounds useful and the most clearly superior choice unless you have some rage-boner for London that you absolutely must indulge for some reason.

Well, I'm pretty sure you don't speak Arabic and you're used to britain's cool, temperate climate. Your general disdain of religion could probably get you in a lot of trouble, given that Sharia law seems to be the basis of their legal system, and I'm not sure how they look upon alcohol consumption there. You'd spend your days doing good work in an alien and constrictive environment. Plus, you'd be living in a monarchy, and the regional instability would probably add an element of political uncertainty to your life there.

So what I'm saying is you should definitely take the job in Saudi Arabia.
