Fog Days

I heard about fog days in UAE but never did I think about how serious they really are.  Today, buses that transport teachers pulled over on the side of the road because of the dense fog.  Since we also live an hour away from work, we don't make moves until the bus does.  Therefore, I am sitting in the house waiting on the word that it is safe to drive to work.

Update: once the fog cleared and we got to work, our cluster manager (does something with all of the schools in our region) was disappointed because he made it through the fog, and we didn't try.  Excuse me sir but I have not seen a job or a person yet that I am willing to risk my life for.  Driving already isn't all that safe here at the speeds they drive and the way people get close to you to flash you for going only 20km over the speed limit.  Moments like that one I wish it was professional to say, "kick rocks."
