The police can't do anything until the judgment from the court. Call the court if you have really a case against you. The purpose of calling is to see whether they filed a case. Then he can tell the court (if he goes that route) that the Employer was threatening him and he called the police and the...

If there is a case against you, you need to know the case no, then only an attorney can access to it. Correction, if one doesn't appoint an attorney (it's an optional, not mandatory), one can ask at court some information directly (at reception desk or by calling) such as case number, hearing date,...

where are you located as of now? and how the interview will be conducted? are you currently working in dubai? it's not common to have passport copy before an interview, unless you're out of dubai and being asked to come to dubai for the interview and you need a visa (transit/tourist/visit) to come. ...

there are some collection booths around international city. one is at the bus stop in front of dragon mart.

there's a small shop selling only cricket stuffs in karama. behind regent palace hotel (opp burjuman), opp iranian school.

85% of residents are expats. many places. depends on whether you'll mix around or prefer to hangout with fellows from your country. which area will you live?

Thanks for the advise. What do you mean by pay? Do you mean the 700 bucks? Does this make my case/conviction go away? How do you know if the employer indeed had opened a case against you? How do you know if their accusation/demand is only $700 and no other damages? The only thing you can really kno...

are you sure you have searched?

I doubt employment laws here will ever reach that level. The only changes in employment laws here are to favor the locals. It's not the law that has to be changed, it is the attitude of the racist companies. Well, on the second thought, I agree that the law must be changed that all employers must p...

I remember when adverts who specify certain "qualifications": under the age of 30, single, specific nationality, etc. They should've mentioned in the ads "we want young candidates without much of experience who we can pay cheaply (no family benefits). and we prefer talking in our loc...

And yes, if you apply the standards that are in place in the States, you will hire (or hope to hire) the better candidate. I too used those standards for hiring, but as you know there are no guarantees anywhere that the choice you make is the best choice. They could be very qualified , but it isn't...

LOL to Sedar ads. Even I made much better with Powerpoint when I was in college many years ago. But then they say "there's no such thing as bad publicity". See now people are talking about them

I still can't believe I ate the whole pack of pork cubes from Spinneys (cooked with sweet dark soy sauce & gravy) in just two meals. I hope the cholestrol level is fine :D Normally I cook and eat more veggies & eggs. Now I'm thinking next time to cook Tom Yam Goong. I need something spicy to...

If the HR is at the first step of interview, then the keyword to them should be "recommending" not "filtering out". Otherwise they could probably losing the best candidate only because one two irrelevant thing. Unfortunately most HR practices the latter one.

I saw sesame seeds (spice section) at Spinneys Uptown Mirdif just yesterday. Most probably available too in other branches.

I'm surprised noone post this. It's on Gulfnews as well. Etisalat is having a problem a whole day since morning! I can't make call, send text, or even check my balance. I thought I had problem with my phone despite receiving full signal. But it's confirmed by some of my friends who's having the same...

I wish I wasn't born

I sent PM to andyba but I got no reply, about a request to change my username due to privacy reason, or if not possible to delete the user including the whole message archives (and I'll re-register again). Any other admin/mod has the authority and can help?

Any other admin besides andyba?

Thanks. Will PM him.

Hey xty, why so desperate?

What you saw recently on some recent threads (about looking for job) is just the tip of the iceberg.

yeah, only miracle can overturn the situation. i hope i get one soon. keep praying.

Hang in there buddy. Its been a very tough year for a lot of year. My worst, there was a time I had only literally 50 bucks left in my pocket. Me and my wife spent a good eight months without zero income, and Zero savings but the bills kept on rolling in. Rent, CC payments, Loan payments, sending m...

if you don't exercise you may get fat and alone! ;) :) I don't exercise, sleep longer, have breakfast, eat more, but still it's difficult to gain back my 2kg deficit out of 5kg I dropped since several months ago due to stress. I believe in order to control the body weight, being happy or stressed m...

LOL

there's one somewhere in Sharjah, private, search on Facebook. all risks are yours.

English beauty is like English humour - nobody understands both of them outside evergreen island.

I like women with accent such as British/Australian. Sounds sexy.

most probably OEM from China. don't be surprised if one can find it at dragon mart without brand.

If I put all my detail skills/responsibilities like that on my resume from my years of experience, I would make a book! From many job vacancies (in this case IT), they don't know what they're talking about. This is where HR should not "interfere". How do they expect the candidates to proof...

Its no logic!!! I don't know about other countries, I am assuming you are referring to here in Dubai, where the majority of people are Muslim, and it is a hygenic practice in Islam to clean oneself after relieving onself. I gather you don't know very much about Islam. It's more to culture & hab...
