Thankyou, Mensaboy; that's what I was interested in.
Right now, I'm in a similar position - living as an expat in a country where they need my workforce for a while, but dislike me all the same. I guess that's what it is like for guest-workers in most countries around the world (and probably in mine as well).
Nevertheless, I came here for a reason. Why don't I leave? Because until now I couldn't. Now that I can, that is exactly what I'm going to do.
But personally I like the idea of going to Dubai. I believe that it is better than this place here.
And, of course, people always tend to complain about the bad side of things, instead of talking about the positive aspects. It's natural human behaviour.
I believe that it is perfectly alright to be "selfish" in this respect, and to think only about your own private benefits, because you as an individual are not going to make any difference to the company whatsoever. You won't change Dubai. You can only stay there and do the job we all love, as long as it's acceptable for your family and for yourself.
If they pay me well enough, I can swallow a lot of
. If the amount of
becomes too much, or the pay too little, then I will go.
Which is what's happening to my colleagues and me right now.
However, now that many of us have already gone to-, or are about to leave to- Emirates, everybody's talking about how GOOD it is.
But wherever there is light, there is also a shadow. So I am interested to find out the BAD things about Emirates, before making a decision.
If it is not golden, it should at least be yellowish.
