      I'm working at the Centre for Quantum Technologies this summer, in Singapore. Let me tell you a bit about this place. There are many wonderful fruits: mangosteens, rambutans, etc. My least favorite is durian. It smells so bad that buses have signs saying NO DURIAN.

      When you work here you have to visit MOM to get an identity card. That's the Ministry of Manpower. In the same building there's a tattoo parlor, which is a bit odd. But they don't take just anybody! (2/n)pic.twitter.com/iSmTMczhQc

      Singapore has some amazingly futuristic architecture. You can take a hike through the jungle on a raised walkway... (3/n)pic.twitter.com/dxHCrUmYIn

      ... and then pop out of the jungle and see something like this! This is called Reflections at Keppel Bay. (A Chinese billionaire once took me to lunch at Keppel Bay, but that's another story.) (4/n)pic.twitter.com/YpjDo0MIwR

      There's a lot of modern stuff in Singapore - but what I really like are the older, more colorful neighborhoods. Little India and Geylang are my favorites, with lots of great shops, temples and clan associations. (5/n)pic.twitter.com/GZYsmcXARY

      Singapore keeps getting modernized, with charming old neighborhoods taken over by "boutique hotels". My favorite pub in Little India, the Prince of Wales, has closed. The best substitute may be the Singapura Club. I'm still trying to understand their last rule. (6/n, n = 6)pic.twitter.com/HkZVXVZ6WE

      So I guess customers are free to come in, latch the door, and get their full eight hours?

          I don't know - it's very confusing. "No sleeping in the toilet (staff only)" could mean that staff are *not* allowed to sleep in the toilet - or that *only* staff are allowed to sleep in the toilet.

          Or that you are only allowed to sleep in the staff
