Notes:
In 1996, I was working at the King Khalid International Airport (alias "KKIA") for Saudi Oger Ltd. They were not making any money on their Operations and Maintenance Contract (still aren't), so they resorted to money laundering, murder, and dealing in contraband in the local black market. My contract was terminated at the 90-day point when I reported to the government that my supervisor was always coming to work drunk/drugged, dealt in the same, and was not trained professionally to do what he'd been assigned to do. Well, rather than investigate him (Jerry Berg--if that was in fact, his real name), they told him what I'd reported to them. Shortly after that, I was processed to go home. Jerry Berg's "gang" (Norman Soto, etc.) then disabled my car--to keep me in the compound. Seems that the brother of the Prime Minister of Lebanon (half owner of Saudi Oger Ltd) was bringing a team of "engineers" to determine why the Contract was in trouble. Jerry (Jerome L. Berg), the self-mental legend that he was, feared I'd say something about all the graft and corruption going on at Saudi Oger. Just prior to the PM of Lebanon brother's visit, Saudi Oger had an industrial accident which killed one worker, and seriously injured two others. I was shocked by this incident, and Jerry knew it. This may have been why he had my car disabled. The first day I arrived there, Jerry took me to his villa and offered me drugs, and alcohol. He said he could "get me whatever I wanted." His entire villa was filled with alcohol brewing gear. Imagine my shock. We'd all signed a "Statement of Understanding" for the Saudi Govt. That agreement, if broken, was punishable by jail and/or death. Seems that once inside the Saudi Oger compound, that agreement wasn't worth the paper it was written on. We had much of the management at KKIA coming to work drugged/hung over from nightly parties within the compound. Eventually, Saudi Oger had to reassign most of them to different contracts to avoid losing the KKIA contract. Their contraband dealings and illegal activities could only be tolerated to a certain extent. Shortly after I left, there was a double murder at KKIA. Seems the wife of one of the Saudi Oger employees was going to go to the Saudi Govt. with her evidence of Jerry's gang's activities. Both she and her husband were murdered for this.

There is much more to tell if you want to hear it (CIA moles within Saudi Oger, Saudi Oger
contraband dealings at the US Air Force Dining Facility, etc.)

Let me know. Just remember:

Don't work for a Saudi-based company. You are safer to work for a US company that is operating
over there. At least you'll stand a better chance of not being cheated out of money, benefits or
your life.
