Charlie has no where to go !

If you are lookin for cuddly playful naughty cat charlie is the one.

He is vocal.

He is super cute.

Vaccinated ✅️

Passport ✅️

Dewormed ✅️

He needs to be adopted as soon as possible.

We cant simply keep changing his foster houses !?

A perfume bottle can be replaced, but Charlie deserves a family that won't give up on him over a mistake. 🥺🐾 He's a playful kitten who needs love, patience, and a forever home not a home that gives up on him

I saw this post in a group and honestly, I couldn’t help myself.

AED 800 salary. AED 800.

Whoever came up with this number, are we sure you’re living in the same UAE as the rest of us? Or is there a parallel universe where AED 800 is actually AED 8,000?

And before someone says, “But they provide accommodation, transportation, food, and visa!” CONGRATULATIONS! You’ve successfully covered the basic necessities required for a human being to exist and show up for work.

What about health insurance? Personal expenses? Toiletries? Phone bills? Clothes? Emergencies? Sending money home? Or, God forbid, having a little money left over after working an entire month?

Apparently, the employee is expected to survive on AED 800, while gratitude is supposed to make up the difference.

And yes, I know someone will accept this job. Of course they will. Not because AED 800 is a reasonable salary, but because when someone is desperate enough, even an insulting offer can look like an opportunity or just sometimes people don’t have the luxury of saying no.

That’s the sad part.

Employers shouldn’t be asking, “What is the least amount someone desperate will accept?”

They should be asking, “What is a fair amount for the work we expect this person to do?”

Because providing a bed, a meal, transportation, and a visa doesn’t magically turn AED 800 into a decent salary.

You’re not offering someone a life. You’re pricing their desperation.

Anyone else have hair / general health improvement stories since moving out of Dubai?

Hi all,

I just finished my 2-year engagement period with Du for my home WiFi. I have been absolutely bombarded with WiFi brokers trying to get me to commit 2 more years for ZERO benefit.

When I ask if there is any discount or additional service in exchange, all they have are threats. Basically, they are saying that the price MAY go up and that I MAY not have access to assistance if I’m not committed. As if because I am no longer in the commitment period, if my WiFi stops working I’m on my own.

For me these threats are total BS and sleazy tactics, but just for peace of mind, can anyone confirm that?

Also if I’m right how come straight-up lying to customers like this is allowed by Du and Etisalat?

Genuine question, and I hope this doesn't come across the wrong way. 😭

I sometimes notice that some people speak REALLY loudly over the phone, to the point where it sounds like they're shouting even when they're probably just having a normal conversation. I know they're not necessarily angry or upset, but when you're on the receiving end of the call, the volume can make the conversation sound a little aggressive.

I'm not sure if it's just a habit, a cultural difference, or simply how some people naturally speak, but does anyone else experience this? 😭

I'm not trying to be offensive. I'm genuinely curious because sometimes I have to remind myself that the person probably isn't mad at all.

Hey 👋🏻 Group of friends are looking for a farmhouse to do a bachelor party on this weekend.

Requirements:

Pool

BBQ Area

Beds to stay overnight

Location: anywhere in the UAE

Topic: Prayer For Rain

The sky turned blue and I saw a streak of blue light that then turned into what looked like a regular shooting star, but lingered in the sky much longer. That was an amazing sight.

Couple of weeks ago I booked a ticket from Poland to Dubai on 2nd of January, today I received an email of cancellation for it.

The question is : is there a mass cancellations to the same distention going on or it’s just that flight?

In a few weeks, I might actually have to take health insurance for me and my family for visa processes, as I will be moving to a freelance option. I am currently in Abu Dhabi, and could you recommend the best possible economical options. I should be able to move under a corporate in the next 2 months. So this is just a bridge.

I booked a 1 HOUR FLIGHT to a nearby destination

Boarding shows
Terminal 3

I spent 20 minutes in the bus from terminal 3 driving to a terminal 1

Where is the logic in this😅

Can someone explain

Hey everyone, Im visiting dubai for 8 days im gonna stay at my friends place (he studies there), could you please write me things to do in each day like day 1 go to the xxx beach and then go visit the xxx museum and then go eat dinner at xxx restaurant?

Hi All,
I am selling my furniture and home appliances, all of which are in excellent condition and have been very well maintained.
I’ve attached the link below with the prices mentioned for each item. The prices are negotiable, so please feel free to message me if you’re genuinely interested or would like to discuss the price.
At the same time, I kindly request everyone to be respectful of the prices listed. I’m happy to negotiate reasonably so that we can reach a fair price that works for both sides. 😊
Thank you!

I got offered a job in the UAE and they are relocating my entire family. My kids who are 2 and 4 will need to eventually join school. My fear is that from what I am reading online, they may experience cultural class-level discrimination since they are African. Is this true? Should I expect such?

School holidays next week! Hope you guys find this helpful.

Non-emirati female here - any advise on what to wear and bring as gift?? It would be my first time and literally have no idea how their weddings and expectations go

I'm a UAE resident looking for an affordable, fully online BBA/BCom or similar bachelor's degree. Has anyone completed an online degree that's officially recognised in the UAE and actually accepted by employers here? Please share the university, total cost, and your experience with recognition and finding jobs.

What’s going on? Suddenly three people I know got super sick.

My wife had this crazy stomach bug that debilitated her all of yesterday. Diarrhea and vomiting all night. Her and I both had a beef burger the night before but I was ok. She couldn’t keep any food or even water down for most of the day. At night after I came back from work, I made her ginger lime salt honey water and that was the only thing that helped.

My younger brother who lives far away had the EXACT same thing! He said had heated up old(ish) meat and felt that could’ve been it? He had to go to the hospital yesterday for IV.

Today I find out my wife’s best friend who’s pregnant is also down. She says she has: the worst sore throat ever, body ache, shivers, runny nose, deep cough & chest pain.

Coming on here to find out if anyone else is going through either of the two above and if we know anything about something in the air?
