Superheroes in Doha mission
Did anyone see these guys and manage to get a better photo than this rubbish one?
Though they are famous for rescuing damsels in distress and saving the world, cartoon superheroes, including Spiderman, Batman and Superman, appeared live on Doha’s Movenpick Tower and Suites building yesterday on an entirely different mission.
Scaling the 26-storey building were more than 10 workers of Spider Style Tower Cleaning Company, dressed as superheroes in a bid to perform “heroic” deeds of making the hotel’s glass windows clean and spark.

More info from The ...More info from The Peninsula;
“Our company is new here in Doha, around five months, and we’ve hired all these Nepalese climbers and trained them here,” said Ahmad Harake, operations manager and partner of the Spider Style Tower Cleaning Company.
“We have only asked 15 climbers/cleaners to do the work today, but we have already employed around 40 in our company. Five are French and the rest are Nepalese,” said Harake.
According to Philippe Bonnot, Movenpick general manager, the idea of having the window cleaners dress up in costumes was to brighten the guests’ day.
“We all need our windows cleaned, so why not inject some fun into it as well? If we can brighten the guests’ day while going about our daily routine, then we are happy,” said Bonnot.
According to Harake, their company is now in the middle of hiring female climbers from the Philippines who will be joining their company soon.

Wow. French, Nepalese and now Philippine climbers? ...Imagine that! French being hired to clean the windows in a Spiderman costume! I think French has a better taste of occupation than this.

Yesterday I saw on TV a ...Yesterday I saw on TV a report of a French company that does work like this in France. All the jobs that require working at extreme heights, as in painting cranes, bridges etc. maybe this company has lent some of their people to these guys in Qatar.
You mess with the cat, you get the claws....
heero_yuy2 said
I'm guessing French has only temporary work ...Months later, they'll leave it to the real hired workers after the 'introduction'.
Here's what I also thought. There're probably more men who saw this thing (and probably stuck up to glancing the whole day)this morning/afternoon than the kids themselves.
Side note: The Spiderman thing reminded me of my chief supervisor who already jumped to Dubai. I was wearing my Superman 'S' logo shirt at work and the supervisor said it was Spiderman. God! What is their exposure to the world?? What da hell do they give their kids to know their superheroes and toys??

nice ...but if there would be villains, and create a fight scenario while cleaning, it would double the fun. but hope nobody would fell down. but heck, they are supers! lol.
