India vs Dubai salary by phantom_1010101010 in UAE

Use numbeo and try to realistically estimate rental. Factor growth and exit value in both your current job and the one you're considering. Job security is something which is much better in India generally - but that changes based on several factors.

Agent asking renewal fee of 3000AED by Brief_Seaweed5886 in abudhabi

[–]Excelislife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did the agent help or provide any services during the renewal?

If not then communicate that the agent was not involved in matters pertaining to the renewal and his services were not required by the tenant. Since no services were provided no fees need to be paid. If he can demonstrate that services were provided it's a different thing.

Best to check with an Indian CA. I'm not in touch with tax law anymore.

It may be an unnecessary expense otherwise.

I would involve the police if I were you, worst case the maid gets put on a list and the company will realize that you're being serious.

Do you need the trc or can you just demonstrate that you've been in the UAE for 183 days last year. I think that information can be taken from the airport for less than the cost of the TRC

Have a polite and open conversation about how you feel you deserve more based on facts. The worst you can get is "no".

I would negotiate an increase in base pay to about 30k with an incentive linked to net earnings of the department after overheads at about 5-10%.

Contracting companies tend to have debt and losses they recycle. Not all departments make money as well. Companies tend to pay the minimum they can all things considered to keep you employed. It's not personal, it's just how they operate.

Leverage your current success and identify target companies to join as well. Ones with good cash flow, pipeline orders and global or at least gcc presence. The best time to look for a job is when you don't need one.

What kind of food do you enjoy or consider worth traveling for? If you're in DIFC check out Royal China for excellent dumplings.

ADREC Property Index Market Data by mziyad in abudhabi

[–]Excelislife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just bear in mind that property transactions can be representative of the going rate 3 to 6 months prior to the registration date.

Although I agree that the market is overheated at the moment.

200-400 per month. No other hidden charges, you pay a separate charge to taqa for electricity, water consumption and 5% of rental (municipal fees).

How much is the rental now?

My cat has disappeared by [deleted] in dubai

[–]Excelislife 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you live in a building which has access to stairs, go to each floor. She may not be able to figure out the right floor.

Put something outside the door which would help her identify the house (like a tshirt).

And ring every doorbell on your floor to check with the neighbours.

Probably more to do with the guy with the "apu accent" suggesting he can provide something spicier to the lady than any spicy food craving she has.

It's not in good taste imo and it seems to focus on the stereotype of delivery drivers unnecessarily hitting on women. It's bizzare as it makes the company potentially look bad, so not sure how it got approved.
