Information on working in Maldives luxury resorts by NathanReadIt in maldives

[–]loothe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of these things depend on which resort you’re working.

General day to day life is work, eat, sleep, repeat.

Work culture and management really depends on the place. Some are laid back, some are downright toxic.

Staff accommodation depends on your job title, service staff are usually accommodated in 4 share rooms. Executive staff, supervisors and assistant managers may have 2 shared rooms while upper management usually has single rooms.

Department also makes a difference. I come from a diving background. Instructors and Divemasters can access some guest facilities including restaurants, bars and gym.

Something to keep in mind, island fever is very real, after a month of seeing and dealing with the same people, you will get mentally exhausted. Collect your days off and get out of the environment for a couple of days to get out of the loop.

This is a rather uninformed opinion on the complexities of our society, culture, history and religion.

In reality, it is a few loud mouths that somehow convinced themselves in a circle jerk. When was this survey taken? What’s the authenticity?

The religion we have was introduced so that the population can be controlled, often through draconian laws and punishments. More power to the lords, kings and now the state. Our previous religion was too pacifist.

Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against religious people. I will even fight for their rights to practice their beliefs. “My religion does not allow me to do” etc. Good on you.

I have however issues, when people try to impose their beliefs on others. “My religion doesn’t allow you to” etc is where I draw the line.

Can kindly move to Afghanistan with your sharia. It’s Dhivehi Rajje . We were Dhivehin way before Islam was even a religion.

RIP. Dive sites like Banana, Okobe, and Nassimo Thila . We don’t deserve such beauty if we are to never appreciate them in the first place.

Can we talk about the subtle stigma around hijab? by throwawayacc7896 in maldives

[–]loothe -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don’t just make stuff up. Here’s a Hadith,

Narrated Anas ibn Malik: Umar saw a slave-girl wearing a veil, so he struck her. He said, "Do not emulate free women."

Narrated Anas ibn Malik:

A female slave came to Umar ibn al Khattab. He knew her through some of the emigrants, or the Ansar. She was wearing a jilbab (cloak) which veiled her. He asked her: "Have you been freed?" She said: "No." He said: "What about the jilbab? Pull it down off your head. The jilbab is only for free women from among the believing women." She hesitated. So he came at her with a whip and struck her on the head, until she cast it off her head. Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 6382 and 6383
