January 2017
Pay attention.
Copy Editor in New York:
Pay attention to the details. Be timely and courteous.
September 2016
Working for the national oil company can be challenging.
Copy Editor:
Pros: My job is demanding. We're set a lot of deadlines and every other minute new work is thrown at us that keeps us from meeting them. We have a lot of bosses. But if you ignore the politics of the office it isn't such a bad job because it's in an area that I love.
Cons: Commuting to and from work. I live in Bahrain and work in Saudi Arabia. Every day I drive for about an hour to get to work and then about an hour and a half to come home in the afternoon. The driving in this part of the world is extremely hazardous. The weather conditions can be atrocious, with temperatures of up to 122 degrees in the summer.
July 2016
It is a daily routine.
Copy Editor:
Pros: Learning cultural differences. Paid vacation and sick leaves. Definite weekends off.
Cons: Working during holidays. Working on shifting schedules. Micromanagement by new manager.
June 2016
Copy Editor:
Cons: I believe that I am very underpaid for my position.
