I'm moving to Dubai

adidasss · 09-26-2011, 06:08 PM

Well technically Sharjah but Dubai is 15 minute away and is more recognizable. I figured I haven't attention whored in a while now and this definitively deserves some attention whoring. My life is about to be uprooted and shipped to god knows what parts of the world with their dubious views on morality and such,...

The money is supposed to be rather impressive, but I'm most excited about is the prospect of having an Olympic sized swimming poll right outside my doors and a gym in the same apartment building which is a hop away from the actual place of business. *shallow and lazy*

Who knows what the people I'll encounter there will be like... The work is 10h per day with the weekends off and a rotation cycle of 90 days there 16 back home...

Don't sound too bad aye...?

Your little mb brotha, going off in the big white world...never to return again....

Shit is going down probably during October or early November so enjoy what little time you have with me coz I don't know what type of censor/firewall system they got set up down there....*teardrop*

Wish me luck...<3

I do indeed wish you the very best. It doesn't seem too long ago that you was wondering where life was taking you and you felt unfulfilled in many ways.

The very best of luck to you Marijan.

Good luck my friend! Sounds super exciting...I'm completely jealous. Cheers!

Congrats man! Best of luck! And if you're ever in the Mirdif City Centre mall think of me—I designed a bunch of the signage for that place.

Congratulations, whoever you are. And I wouldn't worry too too much for the "dubious morality" of Dubai. It's one of the most excessive, capitalistic places on earth, even by the standards of the western world. I think theyre all more worried about their business than anything else. :p

Congratulations! You're moving up in the world! I heard Dubai and the surrounding area is just as Blarobarg said. One of my professors worked in Dubai for a year, and loved it. She said that at one hotel, there is a vending machine that dispenses gold bars (actually, that may have been in Abu Dhabi, but still!). Shows how much money is flowing through that place

I guess it would be good for you to do some research about customs and such, but you're smart so I'm assuming you've been doing just that.

My aunt stays in Dubai, she loves it over there and has stayed for 12yrs or so. It's super beautiful. Although I haven't visited myself, she speaks highly of it over there. You'll love it. Good luck

I'm jealous. Never been to Dubai myself but have heard amazing things. Hell, I'd go just to check out the Burj Khalifa.
