Mickey,
Anyone who reads your post may take the wrong idea from it. I'm not saying that it's not 100% correct, I'm just saying that you portray about 10% about working in Dubai, the other 90% is the lifestyle, which I'm almost certain you don't know about. Remember, you don't work all the time.
I, like many people over here I know, came over for a year or so, and I've just now completed my fourth. There is a lot more to DXB than work, a lot more.
To those people who are offered the chance, I say take it. True, it is hard, and not without other problems. However, when you look at Dubai, and the expansion that the airport is going through, name me a place with this amount of opportunities, combined with the lifestyle? If, after 6 months you decide to go home, are you any worse off? No of course not, because you've always tried it.
Fiction: Ask AOG007 about his singing abilities at my BBQ's. Very Impressive, especially while holding a hammer
