I have a chance to go to Yemen working for an American company. I know many people will say "Well, if the pay was good enough then yes" but because 'good enough pay' is a relative term, let's just say that the money will be twice what I am making now and $12,000 per year more than my most money making year. It is 5 weeks on, 5 weeks off.

As far as danger goes, there will be little of on the job itself. The dangerous part, if there is one, will be in travelling to and from the country and, after I arrive in the country, travelling to the jobsite. The jobsite itself is extremely secure.

I said 'men only' because women will have other reasons for not wanting to go there.
