I am a "white" canadian (British background) so does this mean us westerners make more money? Is our skill looked upon as being higher than a lot of other places?

I am a single guy with 2 dogs. I have to counter offer with another salary as this one is not a fair one. They have low balled me from what I can see. I have a lot of experience which they know. I have to write them back soon. I guess i will go high then.

So now they have increased it to:

27500 AED Salary
2500 AED Car
10000 AED Living

This is a much better offer in my eyes. I have been told though that designing high rises in Dubai I can get more. I need to research those companies now as well.

Frankly QS' are a dime-a-dozen in this town and most of them are clueless...All they really know if 4th grade math and how to calculate area and volume on simple geometric shapes (ok, 5th grade for tha...
