I am interested to know how those of you who work handle prayer.  I am at
work about 10 hours a day.  In the winter, it is often dark when I leave
home in the morning and dark when I get home at night.  I share a large
office with four other people.  There is no privacy and little room to 
pray at the right time in the office.  These are the options as I see 
them:
1. Go to a room somewhere in the workplace that is private and pray.
2. Stay where you are and take a few minutes to pray by "dua" since you
   cannot pray the usual way.
3. Leave work and go to a mosk or home, pray, and then return.
4. Wait until you get home and make up all the prayers you have missed at once.

I would really like to hear from others on this matter.
