@ituribushbaby 
Thank you
How expensive is living in Sharjah/Dubai - regular accommodation for two?
7-10 Offs a month is not too bad, can they be taken together or so - to make that trip back home? (FDTL allowing, of course)

Check dubizzle.com for the accommodation. Depends on your needs and will to drive prices vary a lot.

You can't pair them unless you take annual leave I which case they are added 5 days to your leave. Some new options like 6/2 on/off seems to work for some. Around here thinks can be negotiated a bit.
Depending what deal you get its not bad. It all depends on your expectations and options elsewhere. It's my 7th year and probably will stick for a while still. However I have seen many come and go

Living in Sharjah is really a pain the a** if you are not used to live in ****ty places... I went to air Arabia offices time ago for the interview and the first impression was terrible. I do not know why, but I was expecting the typical extra new, extra clean extra big building... And of course I couldn't believe where I was once I got there... Small, dirty, furniture aged middle 60s, looked they were just moving in with lot of packages in the corridors and in the offices but it was not! I was just expecting to be bitten by a rat..
For the written test they did not have enough computers for everyone (we were 5..) so they tried to look for some extra laptop... I do not need and Alienware but for god sake some buttons were missing and the touchpad was working too bad..
Having a look around, I just had a bad feeling, offices are close to the airport.
I couldn't go and live there, it is just 30 min away from Dubai but it looks like it is 1000 years behind..
It was not for me. I did not take it.
Good luck

Just got mass email from agency. 6 month contract, €7.800 all inclusive, and before tax in your home country I guess? 9 days off, 6 in a row.
This industry is really turning in to an all low cost, low pay, low life industry.

I just got the same mass email, are they really going to get takers with those terms on a temporary contract? Personally I can't see why anyone would be interested who meets their stipulated criteria.

I have a hunch the agencies are in cahoots in the race to the bottom....who knows what they are skimming off the top. They are part of the problem for sure and my dealings with them has led me to firmly believe they are TOTALLY USELESS and couldn't give a flying fig about you. Much better to try and deal direct.
