The salary report for my industry is quite misleading IMO. The report lists the high end limit for my position as xx,xxx but I'm earning more than that yet am firmly in the average bracket at my company. Before you say that my company is an anomaly, can I just point out that my colleagues at other f...

So what is YOUR purpose in life?

zzzane

Advantage: F*ck till your banana drops, many servants to help you around with domestic chores Disadvantage: Too effin expensive, unless the ladies are from the sticks. Before all you women activists on here start asking for my blood, can I just say that I'm not a promoter of either polygyny or polya...

What most women want: 1. An AMEX Centurion or any credit card with no limit 2. Direct and unrestricted access to her boyfriend/hubby's bank account 3. The nearest shopping malls and platinum/diamond jewelers to be right next to their house 4. A guy to drag around the mall to show off Of course, ther...

Yeah I heard hookers out here earn more than your typical CEO out in Bangladesh.

zzzane

honestly the worst drivers are indians. i mean driving 50km in the fast lane where the speed should be 120km and the cheek to brake when a car comes from the behind flashing. You took the words right outta my mouth.. spot on mate. I'm surprised banglaboy hasn't chipped in with his "constructiv...

No problems with Etisalat over here. I'm on a 2Mbps connection which other that being a lot slower (and a frickin ripoff in price) than my 8Mbps line back home has been pretty good so far.

I had my first run in with some Indian dude late last night and it was kinda fun. :D My girlfriend was merrily driving along at five over the limit as he came right up to our back bottom in his Camry and started flashing the corners for some reason. No problem there, I thought as she moved into the ...

More like 50% if you consider white collar professionals, I guess.

That makes you and your girlfriend part of the problem

Are you implying that we should've continued driving alongside? That was just an accident waiting to happen.

Yes yes.. a Camry owner can replace the puny eco engine with a 2JZ.

zzzane

definitely doesnt sound even remotely like an Indian or south asian. Need to get your eyes checked. However, you probably think you and your gf did something great didnt you? and that where the problem lies. Huh? I'm pretty good at identifying nationalities and there's no way that guy was even remo...

Agree with all the way through but... Employees that work for Etisalat in the UAE do not receive the same salaries that emplyees do in Europe or the US so there is no reason for gouging on monthly service plans. I'm sorry but you're grossly misinformed. What makes you say that? Have you ever worked ...

zzzane

Hey no hating on the 3 series! (Bimmer 335i owner here) :) Since you made me curious as to what BMW you're rollin' with...and only two of them in the UAE? Damn... What type are you driving? guessing; Z4M Coupé? ....or brand new 7 series? I was about to post the same question. I'm guessing he drives ...

zzzane

One one car in the UAE? Yeah right...

Good luck selling a 997TT right now. My friend struggled for close to 3 months to get rid of his 996TT.

zzzane

Welcome to the real world. :) Free? There are quite literally tons of them all over the web. Google these: Fring, Opera Mobile, Slick, Core Player, Death Drive, Skype, Gsync, Pocketrar etc. If you're looking to go the paid route, check out Garmin's maps for ME. They're pretty up to date and nicely d...

I've been in the UAE for a little over 6 months and can hold my own in the occasional short conversation or two. I'm getting to the point where I can speed read stuff written in Arabic. Understanding what's written though is a slower process since I have decipher everything word by word rather than ...

What's a low end Toyota doing amongst those Zerman machines?

zzzane

Looks majestic!

... but not as majestic as the Concorde. That was the plane.

zzzane

^^ Northville, Michigan I suppose?

sage & onion wrote:Now you are talking, but they were so small in comparison

Does that really matter? I'm approaching a million airmiles flown and can honestly say that the Concorde trip from Heathrow to JFK was the single most exhilarating flight I've ever boarded. Everything else seems so ordinary.

zzzane

sorry was confusing the r34 with the r32. mind you the r34 is a monster too. the japs have some nice cars including the godzilla, supra, evo, nsx, s8000. sorry but the guy from top gear says r32 is the best so cant really argue with him :D S8000? Did Honda just release a V8 powered muscle car? :lol...

What do you drive? A Yank car?

zzzane

Ze Germans = cleverest of all!

Good luck trying to top 60 in that boring Jap toaster.

zzzane

fantastic way to raise cash in tough times. i mean why not? just lay people off and cancel their visas. they run to the airport, so they dont get deported and leave their cars. government sells them and collects cash. but who would they sell them to is the main question? The Dubai Information Sit I...
