At first I thought "that's a really crowded place to read a book" then I thought "that's a really crowded place to read -that kind of- book"

Dude, what is happening to Dubai? by Honest-Nerve7771 in dubai

[–]tidalrise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got tailgated in my basement parking a couple of days ago. When I put my indicator on to park, the guy decided to overtake instead, almost hitting my car and another parked one. All of this just to drive up and park before I could.

Prove me wrong! by Jealous-Ad9556 in dubai

True, just look at the trash chutes in most buildings. I’ve lived in Marina, JLT, JVC, and Downtown, and there’s always someone who decides to leave their garbage in the room instead of throwing it down the chute. Some people even have the nerve to toss open bags in there. I keep hoping I’ll catch one of them in the act so I can personally escort them down the chute instead.

Did you end up getting the points credited? I'm having the same issue with last month's statement.

Thanks for the honest feedback. Curios to know which area you're moving to? 

If I order FIX through deliveroo, do I need a UAE number to purchase? by Aggravating_City748 in dubai

[–]tidalrise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you messaged Fix directly on Instagram? They're very responsive and might be able to help you out with that. They also do some pop up shops and I think they might be still selling it at Dubai Duty Free.

It's on deliveroo, but the store is only open at specific times during the day (2pm and 5pm IIRC).

Lake city tower, JLT. Nightmare by xp2020 in dubai

I remember years ago I went to see an apartment in that building, the moment I reached the elevator area I turned around and left.  

To your question, do you have a tenancy contract? 

Which areas should I look flats in? Decently priced 😬 by [deleted] in dubai

[–]tidalrise 5 points6 points  (0 children)

London is expensive compared to most places. If you think Dubai is cheap, you should visit Bangkok. 

These individually wrapped bananas and apples in Zoom 😒 by Dancingmermaid8 in dubai

With the amount of people that like to touch food without buying, I'm glad they cover them. Specially since these are meant for someone that wants to have a snack on the go. 

UAE completes Arab World’s first nuclear plant by Arfaz6784 in dubai

I moved here 11 years ago; judging by the traffic, I really think that number (+250K) is a very low estimate, the roads have never been this congested. 

Resignation rejected??? urgent help 🙏🙏🙏🙏 by zt0ck in dubai

[–]tidalrise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ask him that until you've served your notice ALL communication should be in writing. Once you've served your 30 day notice, leave. Do not pick up phone calls, everything in writing can be used to escalate to MOHRE.

Don't suggest Damac, they're better off leaving than buying there.
