No need to worry

From BBC world news:
=================

A roadside bomb targets a bus in Algeria, killing one man and injuring nine others, all staff of a US firm.
=================


On the odd that somebody actually saw the news about Algeria, I want to say right away.
The bombing in Algeria was in the North, I am in the south. If something was to happen in the south it would be very very very unlikely to be in the middle of the desert when they can just go to Hassi Messaoud (a town in hte desert that only exist because of the oil industry) and find a lot of expats (foreign workers) all huddled up together.
When I go on holidays it will be in Djanet...again in the south and I will not be a oil worker, I will be a tourist...tourists are not targeted. I NEVER EVER wear anything that shows my relation to oil work when I am on holidays...the way I see it I spend enough time at work I don't have to think about it when I am not there, and "No" I find no glory or pride in wearing my job on holidays or on the plane going home or going to work.

All is fine here!
