I did the occasional contract flying out of Jeddah.
Pretty boring place and the Saudi assignments went super junior.
If I never see the place again, that would be too soon.
Kuwait is slightly better, flew for their National airline for a year and a half.
At least one could could smuggle booze into Kuwait without going to jail if caught. Do that in Saudi and bad things will happen.
The prayers would drive me nuts:
Lived next to a mosque in Kuwait City and they start the **** early morning. Went down and cut the wires to the external speakers a couple of times. Then they put guards on the perimeter of the mosque, I cut the wires again when the guards were sleeping.
Finally moved across town away from the noise. (Could have gone to jail for a long time if caught, not the smartest thing I did in my life)

The Middle East sucks, but you can have some fun in Dubai, Emirates seems to be hiring all the time.
I would stay far away however, especially from Saudi Arabia.
