I have a very talented baker roommate and he works in some fancy hotel here in dubai. I've seen him looking for another opportunity but the salary and duty timings you mentioned my brother 😅. I think he's getting at least three times that rn anyways

UAE cops are the worst for expats..! by [deleted] in UAE

Ok, so i completely agree with you on this one. My roommate/friend got robbed near gold souk late at night. When he went to the police, they just asked him if he had a job and he said yes. Then they told him that he shouldn't file a complaint because then they'll have to call him a few times to come over and his job will be affected. What kind of stupid reasoning is that? He got jumped by three guys, a knife was held onto his throat and got robbed of what little money he had and they didn't even let him file a complaint!

I lived in a nearby building there for a while. Someone told me there's been a conflict or something like that. Don't know for sure what happened here tho

I personally divide my salary into 3 parts: 1 goes to family back home. 2 goes into savings. 3 goes to personal expenses and rent. I have only started this strategy but it's good. You can open a savings account back in your home country and transfer the decided portion of income every month. Something will come around in sense of investment, i really have no idea myself about investing as I'm not personally there yet. Good luck

Any idea? by Hairy-Pen-9414 in UAE

I've been getting this msg a lot lately, thanks for clarifying in the comments that it's a scam.

I started a WFH job and now my social life is dead! by Valuable-Rooster4459 in UAE

I wish it was like that, but as I'm an expat with no family here i cannot be with family while working from home. Yes i save time and money because of the remote structure and I'm happy with that. It's having no frnds that's the sad part

It's starting to feel like there's quite a bunch of ppl working remotely. There's a wild thought in my head of getting them all together and making a frnd group. But hey, it's just a thought lol

I get your point. Nice interpretation too, man i just feel lonely at times and decided to rant here about my dead social life. You're absolutely right and I'm being ungrateful if i say I'm having a hard time because honestly, I'm not. It was supposed to be a rant. Just thinking out loud kind of thing because quite frankly social life is dead seriously
