DIFC has it's own laws which are separate to the rest of Dubai. Outside DIFC a maximum of 6 hours per day can be worked during Ramadan, for both Muslims & non-Muslims. Inside DIFC, however, this only applies to fasting Muslims.lordromford said:

Perfect timing in Dubai. 5.00 kick off and everyone knocks off about 2.00 for Ramadan.All_Thaid_Up said:Kick off is awful time for me as I will still be at work and because of Ramadan, I cant even slip for off for a beer and watch it.
And Friday is the weekend here.
And we've found a place with the much sought after early booze licence.
Happy days.
I assumed, from your moniker that you were in Thailand!
How come you're working until 6? Aren't all firms supposed to reduce hours this month?
Anyway, we're off to the Fanzone at Kickers in Sports City. Licence from 4pm. PM me if you fancy putting a face to a name

I've heard Barasti is open and serving too, which might be handier for you?0 -
Well I never. You boys might need to tell your bosses you're a fasting muslim...Red_Pete in Dubai said:

I will be watching it at home with a few friends. I live in Arabian Ranches, so not too far away from Sports City. I intend to give Fanzone a try before long; I have heard some good things about it.0

You would think so.RodneyCharltonTrotta said:I cannot understand any offices in England or Wales today that are not allowing staff the requisite 2 hours to watch the biggest home nations game for 20 years.
A small gesture that would go along way in boosting morale surely.1 -
This is the saddest thread I've ever read.
Feeling for you guys.1 - Sponsored links:

I have a small business and have an appointment made between 2-5pm but will get a much needed decent order. Told both the staff in the office they can watch on the PC at work. Am recording it so if it's a good match will watch when I get home, if not will watch Germany v poland!0

Nice to see a few of us here (dubai). I have only been here about 1 month, but having worked in Kuwait before it makes a pleasant change.

My missus is allowed to show it to her Primary School kids, classy touch from the school.
Might be the first time I've ever regretted not looking at teaching...0 -
Just divert the phones to the Charlton ticket office.northstandsteve said:
so what happens if customers want to come in or ring up ?SE7toSG3 said:I have given my office the afternoon off to watch the game, just can't understand why you wouldnt, it's just a couple of hours. I have found cover for one of my Welsh battlefield guides to watch the game in France. It's the non football watching peeps that are the most excited about it.

I can watch the first half - but its my daughter's 11th birthday so have to go and select a Hamster at 3:15....hopefully winning 2-0 by then (some hope)....0

Manager has given me a 2pm to 4pm lunch break just so I can go and watch it. Legend.0

'Working from home' today.1

Ok, 1 hour to go: and mysteriously I seem to be finishing all my work with nothing to do this afternoon. Oh dear, what a shame that is..
How strange that I didn't mention my impending shortage of work this morning..?1 - Sponsored links:

for anyone that cares why I can't watch it, we're miles behind on target, I didn't event broach it knowing it would be a flat 'no'0

Last minute shift of policy... Am now watching the game with 50+ Swiss teacher-trainees
I am to attempt to treat it as a language learning exercise0 -
My chances of watching the match hinged on my shift taking place with a person who told me to f off last time I saw him (I'm a Support Worker). Delighted that he refused to open the door.0
