"Search"

We seem to be covering this topic pretty often of late.

GAB, thanks, I'll take that as a compliment ;) Its just we seem to get people who join and put up 1/2 posts about the same things. All of which could be very easily answered just by searching the forums. Also, the questions like "I get XXX amount of money, is this good/enough?" are retarded. How do ...

Immigration will always be suss if they find you coming into a foreign country with a one way ticket. Normally outbound immigration will also question you on why you are departing on a one way ticket if you do not have a valid reason to do so - ie already have a job (relocating), or migrating.

Gordon, u answered your own post. As long as the money gives you a quality of life that you're happy with then go for it. Trouble is we are not the best people to judge what that would be for you - you are.

Dude, is your name Webster?

XRW-147

That's funny coming from someone who repeatedly posts irrelevant comments in as many posts as he can find in his 15 minutes of net cafe time.

Wasn't trying to be judgemental, thats why I asked you a question.

Valid question, valid answer, case closed.

Now this will be interesting when I turn up in my car (from the said avatar) to the forum meet on Friday. Did you ever go and check things like I suggested? Or were you just as ignorant as you accuse others to be?

XRW-147

Excuse me Mr so called moderator, who flamed who first? I think you must be blind, or illiterate, if you got any idea of me wanting to meet up with you from my previous post. And if you can't take the heat (facts) just hit the power button, pay your few $ for your time on the net, go home and have a...

Arnie,

Even at 3am when theres barely any cars on the road a DT cab will be 70-80dhs coming via SZR - and I do this at least twice a month. I couldn't even get to Satwa from where we are for 55 dhs. Who u using?

XRW-147

Actually, u've managed to prove that to be true for yourself. Just insults not even close to resembling a come-back.

XRW-147

Susie, its true and not true. Cheaper yes, but grade and clarity doesn't compare.

Malaysia actually has diamonds with good grade and clarity at reasonable prices.

XRW-147

Matey, that was a generalized comment not a personal attack - I'll save those for that spamming cat.

Know how it feels, mine spends more time in the shop than on the road!

XRW-147

Fayz, to put things into perspective we're talking about "cheap" diamonds here. In theory what you are saying is correct, clarity or grade "X" here should be the same as found in Malaysia, or any where else in the world for that matter. But in practice QA processes are different and this process ens...

Ask whether you will be getting a local package or a proper 'expat' deal. If you're going on a local hire basis just throw the whole comparison with Australian payrates out the window cause that stuff don't fly here. Work out what you need to maintain the quality of living you are used to over there...

XRW-147

I would probably double the accomodation, cause its exxy here and my friends said their partners are not allowed to stay with them at the crew facilities. Unless she doesn't stay at the provided accomodation and you two pull your funds together and get a place together. Should still be able to affor...

XRW-147

So she was in the October boot camp here?

She should be in a nice place already then, yeah?

Sounds reasonable.

No wukkas mate.

XRW-147

Rose bush spray should do the trick.

XRW-147

oh come on X, 16,500 dirhams is quite enough to live on here. Example: Rent 5,000 (simple studio in a simple building) Car 1,500 Fuel/Maintenance 1000 Food 1,000 Entertainment 2,000 Total: 10,500 of course you'll have some upfront furnishing and settling costs, but that still leaves you with about ...

XRW-147

where exactly can i buy AED 1900 sunglasses, and even more importantly where can i get the AED 20 copy. Check out your nearest Gucci store for the authentic spring line up or the backstreets in Karama for latest in last season's trends. T, I think that expectation comes from the fact that a lot of ...

XRW-147

Glad u got a chuckle G.

Kanelli, we've locked horns before but I seem to remember it was more a battle of wits last round. This time it was the same old insults and 'comebacks' so was rather boring actually. Still, it makes the morning pass much faster.

Hahaha... check Sniper's avatar matey.

Its a really professional organisation.

XRW-147

Theres heaps around. Your usual Hertz, Diamond, UCR, Dollar, etc. How long you looking at renting? Some are more competitively priced for short and long term.

XRW-147

Liban, I think thats PA not PM.

XRW-147

No you're not being swindled. Just check what type of accomodation you'll be getting and how far it is away from where the school is - cause that will determine your transport exps.

What about healthcare etc Vanessa?

XRW-147

If its on the school campus you'll save going to and from work ;) Should include amenities etc as well then I guess. Wonder if they'll set a curfew for you though... On healthcare its worth checking out, just in case, u know what I mean. Yeah, looking out the window now... a nice (warm) scenery of s...

XRW-147

If there's a curfew im breaking it-no chance im being told what time to go to bed at, at the ripe age of 22! Im a bit of an insomniac so early nights are a waste of time for me...is the sea beautiful??? Im already dreaming about my after-work evening swims... The ocean is nice to look at but if I d...

Ok...so plan B-work for Emirates airlines...anyone got any advice/stories/experiences with the company???? Most of my friends here are aircrew for Emirates. You don't get paid much when you're doing your training (<2,500/month) but they do give you decent, shared accomodation and pay amenities. Whe...
