There is no nice way to say this. My maid walked in on me dozing off, snoring away to glory.
She had a shocked expression on her face. It is acutely embarrassing to be caught snoring, but also one of those helpless situations you feel you have no control over.
I googled and some of the helpful suggestions are about making sure you lose belly weight, and always have clear sinuses. Both of these are trouble spots.
Have mixed feelings about flying to Sharjah for work. There are so many restrictions to be observed, it's very unsettling. One does not realize what a carefree and safe environment we get in India and how privileged we are to crib all the time, knowing very well we are safe all the while.
You cannot dress, sit, talk or think freely in Islamic countries. And the message is driven home, when your HR shares several links to articles and a power point deck to make you aware of how you must dress, what kind of fabric, how transparent, which body parts must remain hidden, what you can eat or drink and when, how to shake hands or not...when to look someone in the eye, when not, how to sit in a chair cross legged and to be careful about where your foot is pointing! phew!
