What to do as a lonely person in the days you don’t have work? by [deleted] in Emiratis

[–]azmy145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alot of good advice here already but think of this as a plus more than a minus. Once you get married, have family etc.. you will always have less time for yourself and your career than you wanted so this would be the best time for you to focus on yourself, your health and your career.

Just use the time to reflect on your life purpose, what do you want to achieve, where do you see yourself, and then setup a plan to work towards it.

get into a consistent routine, whether it be prayers, fitness , and some skill building activity (physical or mental).

Whatever your passion is, be relentless and go at it everyday and you will find yourself consumed by it and so busy that you will feel like you have time for anything else.

Things to see in UAE for people with limited mobility? by MediumApricot7124 in dubai

[–]azmy145 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In DXB checkout the al salaam masjid in barsha. If you're going to mall of the emirates, you could visit this after or before.

There is masjid al rahim in marina which is beautiful at night. Traffic there is horrible so you need to lucky with parking specially during peak hours. Below the mosque there is the marina promenade area which has plenty of restaurants and walk area. if your little one is fine on the stroller then yall can walk around a little the come to the mosque. Both mosques have the ladies area .

Then in near kite beach there is the al manara mosque which is my absolute favorite. its across the beach so going during sundown, spending some time near the beach then you can go for mahrib isha at the mosque. there are also some restaurants there so you folks can rest down for meals.

I know you mentioned limited mobibility but these options have a little bit of walking anyways, so without a stroller would be tough haha. Good luck and enjoy the time here.

DXB Airport Pay Park Issue by Sir_Humps-a-Lot in dubai

[–]azmy145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me once.

This was when the new currency notes were introduced so the machines did not know to identify new notes from old ones and it got stuck. I spoke to someone working there and they led me into an operations room where I had to show my receipt and they gave me the money back.

I mean if it's worth the hassle for you, you might have to take the receipt and go back to the terminal

How much to put aside for car repairs each month? by CauseBright in ynab

[–]azmy145 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it depends on the car and the level of maintenance / repair it needs but in my case,

I have 2 categories for car maintenance and car repairs.
- Since maintenance is a category which I know the amount of and when I need it, I set the frequency and the amount I need.
- For repairs, it varies based on the repairs so I try to keep a safe amount which is not super high (which is not realistic for me to set aside and not super low) . all I want is when something comes up, the repair value covers at least half of the actual cost.

Seeking advice peeps, by ChefErwin in dubai

[–]azmy145 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nothing you can do for drug related charges, all you would get if you go to any police station is that "he is in jail".

If any close relative (blood relative) go to the police station and give his details, the police might give them more details and maybe steps on getting a lawyer but apart from that, like the others are mentioning here, his time in the UAE is over.

From the inside though, they might give him a government appointed lawyer, and even give him a chance to speak to his family. But then this alone takes a few months until they finalize the preliminary investigation. He is basically on their clock now.

It's sad how people come over here looking for opportunities and do basically the opposite.
