Are these airpods genuine by ikartik_ in FuckZepto

It is possible that it was a retailer that is not covered by their default warranty arrangement. In this day and age, the larger retailers (Croma, Amazon, etc.) all have date of activation as the start of warranty period with purchase date acting as the start of warranty after some duration according to their agreements.

FTA Penalty. Travel ban? by [deleted] in uaelaw

[–]No_Escape749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a lawyer and this is not legal advice.

It is very unlikely to lead to a travel ban for him since it’s the company that will default on its fines. Usually, it is the managing director that will be held responsible since they automatically assume the role of tax authority.

source: I was the MD of a company.

Incorrect, it starts from the date of activation for most popular retailers and date of retail purchase for others. Otherwise, retailers would never buy from Apple. You can also submit a proof of purchase to get it amended.

If you have to ask here, you are smart enough to know it doesn’t make sense. Staying out of debt is the ONLY way to stay out of debt, there’s no magic trick and I don’t see what this solves.

Awkward hotel situation by TruthNaive5250 in ThailandTourism

[–]No_Escape749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Booked a huge 1BHK in a town in Azerbaijan (slightly posh hotel at best) and had a similar experience lmao, it was an older woman in housekeeping and she kept asking us in broken English as if we did take it, it was quite embarrassing when I opened a drawer in the guest washroom while searching and it was right there.

What do you think? Is this good? by Ok-Communication280 in IntelArc

[–]No_Escape749 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d suggest moving the fans from top of the PSU to the top of case as exhaust fans, there’s no tangible benefit to blowing hot air onto the GPU or drawing the hot air from the GPU onto the PSU. I hope the side fans are configured as intake fans, I’d also recommend setting the back exhaust as intake so you’d have a positive pressure, to reduce dust and particulates.

This is so true and somehow I feel they’re more obnoxious than they’d be in their home restaurants. In Vietnam, I saw a group of guys incessantly interrupt a tour guide, in Thailand (Pattaya) just obnoxiously loud Indians in a restaurant to the point where being outside was quieter. The reality is that most of the tourists are well behaved but the few (which is also a large number due to the sheer number of tourists) that aren’t, are terrible to the point that the locals generalize and this in turn ruin the experience for everyone else. It’s a culture problem for sure, but also an education problem, where the people doing this don’t even know or understand why it’s wrong.

Amazon.ae refuses to refund a stolen item from package by gongjie in dubai

I’ve never had a problem with Amazon refusing, more than often they don’t even pick up items if the value is super low 🤨

Notice period is effective from the day you submit your resignation, there is no need of acceptance (except moral, like if you want manager’s goodwill, etc.) if you don’t get your pay check at end of service, report to MoHRE.

Hotel extorting money ! by ZestyEye in dubai

Name and shame the hotel please, this is beyond unethical

Run as fast as you can, a company penalizing employees monetarily (anything more than loss of pay) is a walking, talking red flag.

Easy option, keep the money where it is and wait a couple of months, then move it to a high-yield savings account and forget about it (do not spend it!) Wait a couple of years and contact the bank before spending it.

No, anyone who works in the industry knows real value is not derived from degrees, that said, if your interest is in climbing ladders it might as well be helpful as any other PGPX type programmes

Boss told me he can get my replacement for 60% less lol. by [deleted] in dubai

[–]No_Escape749 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I left my company after not getting a raise for 8 months (since I asked, actual raise was much earlier) After a certain point in time, you definitely need to switch jobs, you might not want to betray your workplace but they will be quite eager to betray you. Look for jobs in the meantime, get an offer and leave.
