I personally do not consider this as unfair because: Europeans are already getting paid well in Europe and they will [b]not[/b] take a job in countries as far as the Middle East if the pay is not BETTER than what they already get! Same goes for Americans. So companies have to pay them that much othe...

[quote="Liban"]Your post is like saying, well if you end up with one broken leg in Dubai instead of the two you would have back home, then you are in a better position and it would be fair to you.... No, untrue. Why even get one broken leg? If the person is competant, has the education fro...

[quote="cadmus"] i beg to differ on the standard of education issue...i think the standard of education is very good in India...if not better it's equal to the western unives. i formyself had option of joining reputated institutes in US...but still i opted to stay in my own country and stu...

Liban, One point: once you tell me that the economy in YOUR country is well-off, employees are happy and are earning what they deserve, then we will start talking about the situation of expats from your country. The problem is in your country not the host. If your 'own' country is not giving u what ...

I second Jupiter!
And this should not be seen as paranoia (even though with some people it's almost paranoia

).. but it is a matter worth thinking about.

[quote="arniegang"]To discuss cameras in hotel rooms is most ridiculous , do you really believe they put camera in every or any hotel rooms in dubai or anywhere else? Its utter nonsense. Carry on watching James Bond films :roll: :roll:[/quote] Oh come on!!! you wanna tell me this never hap...

[quote="Wafaey"] So Katy can u please tell me why Egyptians whom were taught and have a degree from USA r still paid less ?![/quote] This is strange. I'm afraid i don't have an answer for that. but this is truly unfair. Where did you gain your work experience? If you also have worked in th...

katy

and then Wafaey, u are still WILLING to work for less, eventhough u are not happy with it! (Most) Americans and Europeans will not accept that. True some companies pay high for competent people irrespective of nationality. But we are talking about the (major) case when the pay is not equal. So again...

katy

Exactly. So even the money unemployed 'westerners' get in their homelands (i.e. unemployment benefit) is sometimes more than what Dubai employers pay certain nationalities. now the BIG problem is, rents in Dubai are hell expensive (SHOCKING!!!!!!). So i am not sure how people will be able to manage ...

out of personal experience: sometimes it's hard to know if sthn is the right thing for u or not. (if right for others, that's sthn else).. So 2 pieces of advice here: 1. don't RUSH into things. THINK things all over thoroughly first. 2. don't think TOO much. because: a. you will always find (trivial...

Happy Easter (still) from Germany.
How is Easter celebrated in Dubai by the way (commercially)? Do they sell all those chocolate bunnies and eggs at stores? all the colorful Easter deco?

a land with no taxes, a lot of opportunities and very high gain... yes attractive enough that everyone seems to be wanting to go there! it's like the contemporary 'American Dream'. But things are changing so fast and nothing seems as easy as it was portrayed. Worst thing would be to come to the coun...

katy

Easy on yourself girl. You are not the only one who has such a problem because of such 'generalizations' of the world. Here in Germany you find girls coming from Eastern Europe to work as prostitutes and others to study and attain high degrees like Ph.D's. You know what changes ppl's general view to...

katy

i have good experience in that! so from my own experience, YES it does work out BUT not if it lasted for more than a year or so.. then it's just depressing.. but for a while it's ok.. like if the partner has to travel and stay away for a certain 'fixed' period of time.

Any home bar fans here?
I was wondering, since it is 'legal' for exapts to purchase alcohol, it wouldn't be a problem to have a small home bar in one's living room, right?
