I couldn't agree more.
This is definately a job more suited to single guys than those with wives and/or kids.
As a single guy, its easy. Only yourself to make happy, which is quite easy given the amount of money, time off, and surplus of hot young single women in dubai.
As for a married guy (to a canadian wife?) with kids, you've got the deck stacked against you from the moment you arrive.
I've felt for a while that recruitment should offer the job to single guys ahead of married guys, because the married guys will face stresses and pressures that the single guys won't. The single guys will likely love it here.
