Guys and gals - watch out for this west arab guy in a black VW 4WD abu dhabi license plate 92482.

Spits out at people's cars while stopped at signals. Disgusting. At least make sure your windows are rolled up lest you get drenched in his saliva!!!

I have been working in Dubai for quiet some time now in different companies and I've noticed one thing common to all places - the lebanese, egyptians, syrians, palestenians at the work place are a boisterous lot. Messy, loud and foul mouthed, racist, rough and aggressive - come late to work and when...

Geez, seems you are coming here to have fun and sleep around. Gosh you westerners have no damn ethics - you'll do it with everyone anywhere. And you being a teacher - want to come here and sleep around with hot guys. Which school are you joining? Should get you blacklisted. Some teacher just like yo...

I have seen several western women who shamelessly breastfeed in public. Only it is not their kids - but their boyfriends who get fed!!!

If anyone has been reading the local papers for quite some time now, they will notice the following: If a crime has been committed by an expat, they will readily disclose the nationality of the expat. If a crime has been committed by a local, they will not be any mention of nationality. If a local r...

Hi Majolo, that salary is not good enough. if you're from the EU, definitely not. I think the company you intend to join is trying to swindle you.....way underpaid dude.

I think the cheapest option is to rent a car and sleep in it.......

its sad that some guys are so bl**dy stupid to drive like maniacs. thats probably coz licenses are just thrown at them without measuring their common sense.

When it rains, you DO NOT drive like a maniac. When it is the first rain - just started, thats the worst time.

michaeldubai

yeah right, I once slowed down because this maniac was right behind me tailgating and flashing headlights. Apart from the fact that the right lane was occupied upto the front and I had nowhere to go unless I knocked one of the right guys off or climb onto the median, I was losing my concentration wi...

its a very poor salary. ask for 70k. confidently. they will give it to you for sure.

"......We are all blonde(not sure if this makes a difference)......" I cant believe you actually made the above statement!!! What do you expect - everyone to bow down and kiss your feet? Geez, you aussies really jump around with the kangaroos, dont you??? Bu then again - Oops - you're blon...

Today's news: Dubai beach sex couple's prison term suspended! Gulf News: Dubai: "...............A higher court in Dubai on Tuesday suspended a three-month jail term for the British couple found guilty of having sex in public. The Appeal's Court, however, upheld the Dh1,000 fine and deportation ...

well - the reason I was surprised was because this place portrayed itself as an area of "high" morals. You'll find that most tourist websites and tourist agencies abroad warn against public display of affection, dressing improperly, etc. in the uae. this conservative attitude is typical of...

I guess you are right ,but in the other hand I believe it is a mutual !! never heard of UAE citizen being jailed in the States or UK or any other country in this matter. . Problem is when asians are jailed in the west, it does not make front page news. Butwhen westerners are arrested in the east - ...

FYI, I've met the guy, one of my mates talks to him every day. So don't talk rubbish about what you only hear from the press. End of. You know the guy? Great. Do 2 things for me and others (if they want to join in too :-)) . 1) Whack him for his utterly stupid behaviour and starting this whole nons...

My 2 cents on the issue: 1) With most and both parents working late, kids ar enormally on their own. And you know very well what kids on their own are upto. Parents feeling guilty will shower gifts and money on kids to make up for the time they dont spend with their kids.....and you know the rest. K...

30k is too much. people are surviving with under 5k income. And people like you are expecting the world with 30k, 60k. I think you should stay put where you are. we dont need any more of the bloated ego british!

Best of luck!

benwj, did I sound frustrated? I am not yet married so have not gone through it yet. What I put down was what I observed/witnessed around me and get from people discussing. Its all over the radio, news, office talk, party talk. What you have provided is the perfect solution - but only if people - pa...

the quote used in most offices is" If you are in senior/managerial position, you are expected to be responsible and professional and do whatever it takes to deliver the final product". Read as " if you need to spend 24 hours in the office, you damn well do it without expecting a penny...

M!. Made your blood boil huh? Good that was the intention. Here's some more... In my opinion there is no place for business analysts in the world anyhere. we had them before and now see the state of the world! :-( they are being kicked out left, right and center. which explains why mahbub is trying ...

michaeldubai

ce*ce_me, sorry for what you had to go through. this kind of harassment is very common. many of my friends have been harassed by heavily tinted cars. they roll down the windows slightly and make catcalls and lewd comments. Disregard the common notion that the UAE is a safe place. There is no proper ...

michaeldubai

yeah, well try to explain the case of the guy who ran down an old woman in his hummer. 10 years??? what kind of sentence is that. for murdering a woman?

RAK police ban pictures on car windows Welcome move! But am surprised that it wasnt implemented throughout UAE. I find it pretty stupid that people here do such stuff such as put pictures on their windows anyway. decorate your car body but not the windows. When you're driving, even a slight hindranc...

If you are in prison, then you are there because you have broken the Laws and therefore committed a CRIME. Bloody PC people, you want shooting :evil: dont agree. there are enough and more people who get locked up who are innocent. There are many places in the world where you can get locked up just ...

michaeldubai

its just too much of an inconvenience to put genuine tourists through just to prevent the entry fo a few criminals. Anyway who would be able to guarantee that just because a person presented a clean police record, he would start his life of crime here? And if this thing does pass through, next thing...

michaeldubai

i've got a few points on tht: 1) every country has a right to make sure they're not having criminals entering their zone.. (and i'd realli appreciate tht, so tht countries like, America, India & Israel (who're the doers of evil in their country and throws the tasty on other countries)). .. &quo...
