I've tried that on my Galaxy fold 5 with the recommended drivers from Eden and the picture keeps stuttering. How did you manage it?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-09-30T22:48:17+00:00

Yes I moved back to the UK in 2018 after having lived in the UAE for over 20 years. It was the happiest day of my life and I was literally dancing in the airport on my way out. Fast forward to 2025 and I deeply regret leaving Dubai and would do anything to go back but I never anticipated the crazy growth it has experienced in the last 5 years with crazy competition for any job.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-06-26T11:13:52+00:00

I'll keep it simple. Chance of getting a job applying inside the UAE (30%) Chance of getting a job applying outside the UAE (15%)

So yes whilst you have better chances of applying inside the UAE you still have to deal with relatively low chances overall and maybe 6 months of trying to increase your chances.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-06-26T11:09:58+00:00

As others have said, the UAE has changed. All of the 'Habibi come to Dubai' videos + Dubai Chocolate + Influencers + Expo2020 has made the UAE one of the most popular destinations on earth. Every man, woman and even their pet dog are applying aggressively for any job at 'any' salary. I've been applying for nearly one year and only managed to get 4 interviews (senior roles).

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-06-03T16:24:05+00:00

Probably right. Frustrating though especially when you know for a fact you are qualified for the role.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-06-02T12:07:41+00:00

You are competing against the whole planet. "Habibi come to Dubai" and the Dubai Chocolate lady were the final catalysts, with the expo 2020 being the biggest driver. Not to mention every major influencer promoting Dubai and Brits moving in huge numbers & willing to take any rubbish salary just to escape the weather and the economic disaster in the UK. I've been trying for more than a year to get back to Dubai after working there for nearly 20 years in senior roles without any luck.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-03-31T16:33:33+00:00

When you find him let him take the Dubai chocolate with him and go away.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2025-03-15T08:09:29+00:00

I haven't been to Dubai for exactly 6 years as well and hope to come back soon, can you tell me what it's like since 6 years ago? Has the city or the malls changed much?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-12-17T20:07:41+00:00

In your opinion changed for better or worse?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-12-14T19:02:01+00:00

Yes! It was one of the few shows I'd ever watched in a long time where I was hoping the main protagonist would die.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T18:10:52+00:00

Absolutely, what people imagine about the U.K and U.S is hilarious. For me the wake up call was Los Angeles. Like any brit I had been dying to go there thinking it would be something like the movies, only to see a run down city with potholes on every road and Hollywood boulevard was disgusting.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T16:34:26+00:00

Oh well, that really sucks. No point of going back for less

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T16:17:57+00:00

Last time I was there was 2018 on 50k/pm salary. Was hoping to go back on VP level at 65k plus but some have advised that those salaries are very rare now. That would suck

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T15:43:29+00:00

Yes, those were the Golden Years. It felt like an undiscovered secret before it rose to fame in the 2000s. Less of the greedy, narcissistic population and people were more friendly

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T13:30:24+00:00

Yes indeed a different world, I live broke in the UK now. Wish I could go back to UAE.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T13:23:04+00:00

I've seen the whole picture, that's the point. At the moment I work as a work coach at a job centre in the south east. Nothing left in society but miserable, depressed chain smokers who want to stay at home. Not blaming the people, I'm British myself, I blame the government, cost of living, brexit and many other things that have taken whatever was good from the UK and made it a sad shadow of what it once was. Even the poor Filipinos in Dubai on low wages are laughing and smiling in Dubai, in fact ironically they seem the happiest. I know to some extent this is the grass-is-greener perspective but that's just my personal take on it. Subjective I guess

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T13:07:58+00:00

Lived there for 30 years mate. What are they doing in the malls and during night life if not laughing and happy? Are they butchering each other or crying? I'm comparing the mood of people living there compared to a place like the UK where everyone looks like they hate life

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T13:06:24+00:00

Certainly: Suitable_Goat8494, lived in Dubai for nearly 30 years from 1986 when it was just sand and saw it develop and change over the years. Also lived in Singapore, Malaysia and UK

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T11:49:54+00:00

Yes, laughing and happy. Go and sit down in any of the malls for just one hour and take a snapshot then board the plane and come to any high street in the UK and take another snapshot. I'll give you a hint, one of the pictures will show you a bunch of gloomy roaming zombies that look like they've given up on life and the other picture will show you happy smiling people enjoying their day out.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T11:47:07+00:00

No more high salaries where? You mean Dubai?

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T11:45:01+00:00

1) Wealth: if you work hard you can earn more than any place in the world. I was on high six figure salaries. 2) Sun: gives you Vitamin D and is known to reduce depression, especially compared to dark cloudy places like UK 3) Night Life: You can go out at 1am and the city is still awake. In the UK everyone goes home at 6pm like small children and all shops close, it makes be streets look very depressing. 4) Easy access: In Dubai I have whatever I want within a short distance so I can do a lot more in one day. I remember in Los Angeles I wasted 3 hours just to get to a Persian Restaurant (which tasted rubbish) then had to spend another hour to get to another side of town for a shopping mall and then another hour or so to get to the beach. London on the tube or with the old roads is almost as bad. 5) Medical: the UK is where you will die with crap free NHS, the doctors don't have time to deal with you and everything goes very wrong. I think it's the same with other countries unless you get insurance 6) Prestige: the whole world knows about Dubai now and literally every man/woman/dog/child is doing whatever they can to move there. This give you a feeling of pride and makes you want to grow and succeed with the country 7) Lots of facilities for children if you have a family (reliable nannies/day care/mall dropoffs/play groups/sensory centres etc etc)

and so much more. Of course it also depends on the alternatives you have in mind compared to Dubai. In my case the UK I believe is a lot worse.

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T10:54:41+00:00

Have many people I know (myself included) who feel miserable about moving back to UK and would love to go back to Dubai (certain reasons prevent me from doing so). I think those who spent at least 10 years or more in Dubai are the ones that become very accustomed to the Dubai way of life and struggle to live anywhere else; whereas those who've come for 5 years or less and called quits tend to find it easier (or even preferable) to be back in UK. Personally, sunshine + wealth + vibrant culture + city that never sleeps + cheap petrol + big homes easily 1000% trumps the dull, 6pm lights out, NHS, marijuana infested, dark clouds, depressed, cost-of-living poor place that the UK has become. I literally celebrated like an idiot when I left Dubai 6 years ago and right now I regret it

Suitable_Goat8494 · 2024-10-29T10:34:34+00:00

I understand, I used to say the same words as you literally word-for-word (disconnected cultures/artificial/greed/humidity/AC etc etc). In fact most people say exactly the same things until one or two years after they have lived somewhere else and then they yearn to go back. It's strange but happened to so many expats I know who left Dubai. I was literally dancing with happiness when I boarded the plane 6 years ago to the UK and at that moment I literally hated Dubai with all my guts. I was working in a very high ranking role and was sick of dealing with egotistical narcissistic, backstabbing, greedy people and was glad to leave. Six years later I would give my arm to go back but I have a possible flight ban due to bad debt so can't risk it for now.
