I can't leave the office!


moe_inter hi.. my recommendation for u is to find new job near ur home :P
Nick81 Ok seriously now, I need some1 to motivate me and convince me to go back home. It's been such a shitty day and I am so pissed that I can't even imagine myself facing the traffic right now as I would most probably end up committing a genocide on the road... My flatmates who left at 6h45 are STILL stuck in the traffic right now. :roll: I need some holidays... MaaaD Nick come over to my place for a drink to relax :D sara_uk
do not go home :lol: i mean wait untill traffic get less, if it does ever. sage & onion Which location do you work and which location do you live?? Nick81 I work near MoE and live in Garhoud near the Aviation Club... Yup have to cross the bridge of death every single day. sage & onion
Why don't you go out to Emirates road and then skirt round behind Garhoud in from the Airport turnoff? MaaaD
That Rashidiya exit is a nightmare during rushhour ! Nick81
I take Rashidiya to go to work and get back home... But nowadays even this road is blocked so... Nowhere else to go sara_uk nick for holiday you can come to london if you like?

See yall in an hour... :roll: MaaaD What you need is a PDA to access DF while stuck in traffic ;) bushra21 lol what! did i say something wrong :oops: :twisted: good luck hon Dubai Knight Gotta a great idea and potential business plan Nick... Buy a hovercraft and take the back route across the sand from MoE to the creek...then just motor up the water and up the ramp at the new bridge by Festival City and you'll be home in no time! Mind you, you might find another hovercraft right behind you with blacked out windows, sitting on your tailfin with all its lights flashing! Just an idea! :lol: :lol: :lol: Knight sage & onion Hey Nick, You still in the office Man??? (5.29am) Guess not, how about working nights m8??? XRW-147
Nick, you want a shitty day? How about coming off a plane with no sleep for at least 48 hours only to be welcomed by Dubai's (finest) customs officials repremanding you and wanting to cancel your residency over a pack of playing cards which had "poker cards" written on the packet? Jeevan
dont tell me that really happened :shock:

All I can say is "at least they didn't bring out the rubber gloves". sage & onion
Welcome to the modern Dubai, OUCHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Nick81
:lol: :lol: I feel for ya bro... I really do!
Anyway wanna know what happened to me this morning? I was going to a customer in Deira (near the Ramada hotel if anyone knows it...) and I was on the phone. So I wasn't really paying attention and missed the service road I was supposed to take. I STILL didn't realize my mistake and missed the next and last service road which could've saved me from the nightmare that followed... I basically had to go to Sharjah as there was no way of turning back... When coming back I got stuck in what is probably the WORST traffic jam I've witnessed since I got to Dubai. I was basically moving 1 meter every 2 minutes. I did 10 kilometers in 1h15mins...
After my meeting, I had to go back to the office near MoE... 1 more hour to get there. And of course I have tonight to look forward to. Jeevan lol nick i experience that almost everyday near shindagha tunnel lol. if i am lucky i cross that stretch in about 45 minutes orelse worse than that so i end up spending over one hour everyday to travel 10 kms while going home .:) am kinda used to it and become immune but when someone trys to cut the lane from the wrong side i just hold my hand down on the horn and give them a real dirty look .lol that scares them off. J MaaaD thats what you get for talkin on the phone while driving :lol: Nick81
thanks for letting me know.... *sigh* Jeevan nick did you leave office? i heard the traffic is real bad towards sharjah for some reason and especially around garhoud. J MaaaD
umm whats new ? sage & onion
You have to get yourself some real good music and drift in space all the way home.
Good luck. scarlet
Classic :lol: I want one.
Nick - lets swap houses. You can have my room in Satwa and I'll take the Garhoud unit sara_uk nick you still in the office for 2 days?? :lol: Nick81
No problem... IF you're ready to share my room with my 2 flatmates (one who has his fiancee living with him right now...) AND my boss! :lol: Nick81
:P bushra21 Yes, and then you shall see a girl sitting on top of a blacked out hummer driving around town..... just be careful when you see that girl actually driving that hummer... :twisted: Desert Scorpion
Hope you got away man :rr: Nick81 Well with my Ramadan schedule no more traffic for me!! Only takes me 1/2h or so to get from the office to my house! 8) sage & onion Celebrate whilst you can, but don't forget it will be back to normal in less than 4 weeks :cry:
