CLA
Tractor Driver,
I think you are a tad mistaken - we receive salary and location allowances for working in Countries crap or otherwise!
CLA on the other hand pays for beers, fags, phone cards and even the odd BJ (the choice is yours) whilst you are there!
Yes it is only US$3200 - US$5500 tax free for your 6 months on site at present with BHNL depending on your deal but that does pay for quite a few of the 3P's without having to dig into your own (in some cases incredibly deep and unfathomable) pockets.
It can transform Hopeless Scrooges into Socialites full of wit and Company subsidised Bonhomie! Look at the Escravos Mango Tree since CLA arrived!
