Although the transition was a little rocky (evidenced by me working in the old vacant office, waiting for Qtel to finally give us phone/internet in the new office), we had a couple of tough office days. Simple tasks like ordering telephone services, utilities, etc...is never easy in this part of the world. Being flexible and rolling with the punches is all part of the expat worker's life.
But finally moving day came. My company, Aamal Services moved into our new offices in West Bay's Aamal Tower this past July. ( I know that this is a delayed blog post, but I finally found some photos corresponding to the occasion.) Definitely a step up from our former dingy Bin Omran back-office location.
I think the staff has also appreciated the step up. They already feel that we are putting forward a better image for the company with the move. (Even Muhammad Tarique and Majed Alhasan are smiling!)I designed the office layout, partitioning, materials and finishes. Susan liked my color selections too. ;-). It was fun to work with my staff and with the contractor on this design/build project. KPS did a great job.
We now have enough space for providing decent offices for the new landscape maintenance, security services, and pest control services groups. Also the janitorial / cleaning operations management and sales staff are no longer crammed into the noisy computer server room. And check it out 
...I even have my private elevator.....cool eh? (I didn't have to pay extra as it was already in the core build.) We are now officing along with other Aamal Company branches; i.e. - Ebn Sina, Aamal Trading and Aamal Medical.
