Not sure if this is a good comment, it is just two questions:
Are there good quality articles like this about the quran? (would they give a background to attitudes in places were islam is common)
Also, does this sort of article feed a personal interest in the subject or do they explain something about the psyche of modern people? (i assume not many people are influenced by these ideas in the north america/europe today)
Thanks for the comment - I wanted a little more information about your work - did you have to search extensively/move a far away for this type of employer?
Also what kind of words would the employer use to describe these working conditions (looks like its beyond normal "flexitime" arrangements) so that others might find them too?
This work hours issue is quite contentious. I don't want to stifle discussion but right now I wish there was a standard "gwen" response at the top of the thread with well researched papers on the subject.
