Thanks so much. Any idea on how much the salary band could vary from ?
As per my very old dated info: EK start giving you basic salary on 50% of what you should get, you can negotiate it to upto 70% of the basic salary... Grade 8 in that department could start from 10k Try to bump it as much as you can, Good luck

Its equivalent to grade 7,. Basic, accomodation, medical benefit for self and for dependents at a certain nominal cost.
Wrong! Flight dispatcher IS grade 8 not grade 7 Crew scheduler is grade 7

Would you please stop positive scams?! The free accomodation and two year contract and flight tickets are purely GCC requirements! Australia, Canada and New Zealand contracts aren't like that! You know you are scammer when your contact number is a USA number, with ending of .com! Each country have different commercial ending with the country identification letters, plus these countries can't accept anyone don't have then right to live and work there! Your scam is exposed

I suggest you stay away from all of that, do your research as these procedures do cut parts from the vagina, the vagina is full of nerve ends that responsibility for many things including orgasm, no doctor have an exact mapping for these nerves and if you loose it in such procedure - like LEED or vaginal rejuvenation you can't get them back and you'll live life long with pain and bleeding ..... You said you have one child only, this procedure isn't for you, it's mainly for women who don't have manustrating cycle, which no hormone in their bodies that keep that area elastic and moist, you don't need that, and remember if it's not broken don't fix it.

Why would you care? Yes I did see these poor men there, actually they were peaceful, respectful and just standing there, little water bottles doesn't cost much, again these bottled water were cold and I can see it while they were holding them. Now you said that, I wish I did buy from them, at least these men need the few dirhams to keep them sustained, I suggest you don't bother about them if you aren't going to buy from them!

I am so sorry for what you are going throw, please don't do surgery here in the Middle East, Asia or Africa, because all Urogynecology sectors here will use polypropylene mesh telling you it's the golden standard, some will tell you if you don't like it will remove it, but mesh is there to stay and no one is trained or know how to remove it. I had mesh not knowing it was mesh, been told natural and safe tape/ sling/ rubber band, they will say anything except naming it it's real name, the mesh will perforate into your internal organs, cutting your nerves and muscles leaving you disabled, with stoma bag and constant pain that controlled drugs can't even make it numb I suggest you look up sling the mesh and get list of surgeons mainly based in uk and USA that do reconstructions after mesh removal... hence you don't have the mesh I believe it'll be easy getting you your own tissue as sling to left your own internal organs or satures or known as Burch satures Again I'm not a doctor but gone throw the ring of fire and no doctor will listen to my complains re pain in my hips and always been told I believe the internet craze! Honestly mesh is banned in Aus, north Ireland and Scotland and NZ Thousands of patients already taking mesh manufacturers tocoarts in uk, Canada, Aus and USA Don't be statists joining the mesh injured patients around the world and do your resource before allowing any surgeon access to perform surgery on you. Hugs

You are absolutely right.today i cried my heart out becz i know now that the company is taking me for a ride.when i got the surgery 4 years back were good finacialy,but then all of a sudden things ...
I think it's time to bring the family onboard, you need to tell them if any can help you in this regard, don't wait for big pharma to do something because I'm so sorry to say this: all what these big companies waiting for is the injured patients to die and take the truth with them to the grave. I'm not sure about the connection between you and your husband debt for credit card, if you are a housewife then you can travel home, not him tho, if the credit card coming out of your own account then yes you can't travel until you settle the debt or find instalment plan with the bank.... Mind you, you can't say anything against whom done you wrong here, so your only hope is go home and sort out the implant mess, I'm not sure but have you went to government hospital here at least to see a doctor even in the emergency? Try this and see what would happen, but please don't let yourself get sicker and waiting for others to do something, because no one will do anything. It's well overdue to make your move now, again it's worth selling everything you can sell to buy the airline tickets to home

I really can't understand what you are waiting for?? All these months and you are emailing the company that produced the implant? How about medical care? Can't you just go to your gp and get referral to well proven track record of ruptured implant removal? If you managed to get hard earning money for plastic surgery then you can get the surgery that'll save your life, imagine getting serious medical condition that literally will require a budget on its own? Sometimes you do what you have to do, sorry but the toxins in your body won't go away on it's own, going to cheaper option " cheaper price tag surgeon" to do the removal means your are gambling with your own life! I believe since March you should already managed to plan something and working it out, you just can't be relying only on writing emails to the implant company expecting them to pay for faulty implant??? Have you seen the documentary named the bleeding edge? Big pharma won't pay you anything to fix their mistake, it's on you now to save your own life, because if you didn't care enough, unfortunately no one else will do.

[b]Thank you for your advice. I am working on that and I also have post op in the U.S. because I am very scared about further medical consequences. The Doctor recommended to bring my case to the ...
Glad you managed to get the implant out of your body, now heal ? As for your medical file is vanished, I'm sure you still remember the date when you had the implant in the hospital, go to the hospital and get your medical files plus post surgery report and surgical implant log, this doctor is trying a fast one and I suggest you file a case against him with DHA There is a project to link all public and private hospitals here in uae and that clinic will be in heaps of trouble with the government... How do I know? I had a surgical implant here - not breast- and removed in USA with a doctor that is the best in such removals that won't cost women their lives or health, again been around the ring of fire of finding a decent doctor here in this particular condition and they all I can say are butchers, and when you catch the lie suddenly all my medical condition is in my head. Good luck and don't listen to whom say this or that is the best doctor, I know how you feel so hugs xx

Sorry, don't have recommendations for the doctor, but please ask your doctor how he will support the other organs after removing the uterus? Is he using burch or a tvt mesh/ tape: sling or even rubber band - doctors use many names to hide the real name surgical mesh- or he will use bladder tack/tuck??? Please be aware that doctors will never use your own tissue - usually taken from lower abdomin muscle or the outside of your thigh muscle as a natural sling to support your internal organs once removed the uterus- saying all that: using surgical mesh will cause more advers events ... if you want more info, just google mesh scandal and you'll get the info you need to know...

I can’t comment really on that topic ??‍♀️ I don’t rely on phone calls anymore, only writing communications! As I tend to forget everything, I always make reminders on actual calendar, phone can go dead, so phone calendar could all go wrong! That’s what I do, because I know how frustrating it could be. Now others I always assume they got no clue, I confirm with them a day before the appointment, because I don’t want to go all the way to discover the other party are oblivious that there was an appointment!

It’s easy for anyone to distance themselves from the situation and say this should be done or said, again we aren’t all the same. It’s a big step to let go of a pet, given you invested in time, efforts, emotions and lastly money, with all aspects and all situations we can’t judge others if they are offering the pet for adoption. Given I’ve witnessed myself people literally kicked out their pet to the curb, unable to do anything to stop this, some will say why you didn’t take the pet, again what about my pets emotions? I can’t foster abandoned pets as my pets showed so many signs of destress and did result in one of my cats did ran away and never come back- with sadness that hovered in our household and the grieve we’ve gone through. People who offer their pets for adoption are being sensible and trying hard to provide a better home for their pets, it’s means they do care about their pets. Financial reasons or social reasons it’s not us who judge others, I can’t judge anyone is trying to do amends, I wish them well and hope for the best. Again we aren’t gods to cast any judgement on anyone

Back in 2013, a friend of our family was working in AD and left in 2003, little he knew; he left behind him car loan and he assumed his best friend back then will be paying the instalments and use the car, in 2013 he was a transit in Dubai and police did arrest him, because the bank filed a case against him for the last 2 instalments- both worth 3k dirhams by the way- and it was a crazy time to find out more info about where the car is - left behind in Oman after it was involved in accident and these friends didn’t report it to any country authorities and removed the plates!- while they racked 8k speeding fines!!! So, that friend managed to get out of the jail after spending a week inside, pay the money to the bank, filed a stolen car report- to indicate he wasn’t the offender in anything regarding the car- settled his case and then only got his passport back - it was brand new passport with different numbers by the way and he didn’t get iris scan back in 2003.... Moral lesson? Pay your dues as you might think it’s tiny amount, but this tiny amount will get you in jail, even if you are doing a transit, or aircraft diversion for any reason and bang you get into heaps of trouble.

OMG Your son is really been mistreated! The children in his class call him naughty and no one stopped that!! He is only 6 years old! Whatever his condition or no condition, your son is suffering from exclusion and bullying!!! Can’t you please step up and ask the school what on earth they have done to include your son in??!!! If he is special needs student; then reports will be there and the schools must help him to be included, if he is suffering from that treatment and it results in him seen a physician then this report should be a support document in your complaint against the school with Khda !!! Your son is refusing the bad treatment and that’s why he doesn’t want to listen to anyone who doesn’t want to listen to him, it’s simple and plain! I suggest you set down with your little boy and see what does he want to do, listen to your son and stop listening to others telling you what he should act or behave! Hugs for your little man

I’ve read all the comments and the op posts.... I am so sorry for what you are going through, and so sorry that you MUST act fast on that! Do not try to contact the women to chat with her, do not confront your husband or even ask for passwords for his phone. You don’t need proof of your own suspicions AND that been confirmed by him try to accuse you of cheating- well he knows himself!- as other posters said: you need to plan your exit! Make everything look natural, get cash, legal papers proof his assets and income, your and your children passports and birth certificates, try to find a job back home, plant to get your children with you out of here then apply for schools in your home country, get any evidence you can get on his affair with that woman with you, and get out of here and battle him from your country. Battling divorce here will get him custody over the children and you need to get permission from him to get the children passports to travel. I am sorry for all that, but after knowing first hand woman were happy here and husbands decided to divorce because he is fed up with spending money or cheating on the wife, how the poor wives battled long trials in family courts and paid dear money to get the children and child support- ok yes they got the lives of their ex husband ruined now- but before that it was h*ll on earth and not a single penny to spare! And lawyers will ask for a start of 50k for the divorce and custody case... Go home and battle him from there, not from here. G

I'm due to give birth any day now in Dubai and then we are hoping to travel home to Australia on the 23rd of December with the baby. My husband is an Australian Citizen and I'm an Australian PR. According to the Australian consulate and all the official advice on various government websites, to get Baby her Aus passport, we first need to obtain her Citizenship Certificate, which takes between 59 days to 4 months (!!!!) then apply for her passport, which will take 3 weeks, and then her UAE visa which can take another week. Obviously this timeline means we'll miss spending Christmas, and my entire maternity leave for that matter, at home! However, I know that in reality, these timelines can often be speeded up and I was wondering if there are any Aussie families who went through the process with their newborns here, and how long did it take? Was there anything that could be done to speed up the process??? Unfortunately it’s straight forward, you may travel early and give birth in Aus, or just give birth here ? Or take your questions to australians in Dubai - not sure the exact words really- Facebook group and ask there I think there is another group like Aussie Mums dubai too HTH

My friend was abandoned by her womanizing husband and seeks a diviorce. Can anyone recommend a legal firm who can help her to get her rights according to Sharia that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. There are no children involved nor UAE properties. Friends have been quoting AED 25,000 plus which is unaffordable. Thanks Good morning regarding your abandoned friend please give her my contact details Ill help her in the best way possible including financially ( 056 372 6083 ) Aren’t you connected with a company called ‘High Life International Events’ ? ...... someone else perhaps promoting themself or having some other motive rather than having a genuine interest in helping others on here !! ....... (if anyone is interested just search the phone number on Google) Im a lawyer ( Legal Consultant in UAE ) and I wrote that I can surely help the lady I dont understand your question about the events company ! Read my message again please The phone number you have posted is associated with an ‘events’ company called High life International events. Unfortunately lots of people trawl forums such as these purporting to offer help, when all they have in mind is their own self interest. Which law firm do you work for ? If you are being kind enough offering your professional services and finance then you won’t mind sharing that :) For divorce, either muslims or not, the one whom is filling for divorce don’t need a lawyer, however a lawyer always encouraged. I knew a lady went through very bad divorce and she did have the divorce, the ex tried to destroy her reputation but the judge didn’t believe the ex. The lawyer wasn’t really good honestly, but the lady got her divorce and child support and other request. Now the courts first will take the divorce request and try to do councelling sessions between the husband and the wife, as per my memory the family courts is in garhoud near the metro station, and remember one important thing: in family courts; they always side by the woman, and I think she can request assistance regarding the lawyer as she doesn’t have income. I am sorry the friend of OP is going through this, it’s bad time in any woman’ Life and yes she will be awarded her full dowry. One more thing: she need to file for divorce too in their home country because there are assets and Dubai family courts do consider the ruling of the country courts regarding assets and they do consider the findings too. Ask your friend to go to her consulate and ask for help to file for divorce there. Hugs and sending positive vibes

I think Gorobattie's answer is incorrect. A friend of mine was in the same situation (5 months pregnant when she married in Dubai) and gave birth in Dubai, too. No one asked questions. As long as you provide a marriage certificate, no one is going to bother with the details. Good luck with your pregnancy and I hope you have a smooth delivery. Ok, my answer is wrong, please do a mini search on this forum not anything else, and read the stories of Mums with same situation and got prosecuted here..... I rest my case I apologise, I didn't mean to come off rude. You may be right, but there are an equal number of cases where such a thing was not a problem. It may depend on the discretion of one's doctor, or how much a person wishes to disclose. Per-mature deliveries do happen, so a blanket rule cannot apply to everyone, unless there's a witch hunt? I don't think it works that way. In any case, I'm sure the original poster would appreciate reassurances and positive stories. Pregnancy is stressful as it is! Apology accepted ? Back to the post: there is nothing about doctor descretion at all, once the parents wants to apply for birth certificate, the employees handling the request count the months from the baby’s birth date backward to Parents marriage date, if it’s less than 6 months, they refer Parents to public prosecutors, leaving the baby with no birth certificate until the law says its word about the Parents penalty, which could be 3 months jail time.... Pregnancy is difficult, with this situation, I suggest the mum to be give birth back home, then come back here once the baby have passport then visa process... The employees do read all info about Parents, compare religions and count how many months from marriage till the birth ..... I hope really OP figured out what’s her next step. HTH

Is anyone of you have been is this same situation, would we really be facing court for our baby's doc? Please. someone reply.. I am really worried now. thank you! To answer your questions: yes. Please leave now while you can, and give birth to your baby back home, and come back with passport and birth certificate with you. If you decide to give birth here, you won't be able to obtain the birth certificate and both of you will face trial with possible of paying fine or jail time or both ... the birth certificate office will count the months from your marriage until the birth and it'll be less than 6 months... during the whole process you won't be able to obtain the baby's birth certificate Now you got your answers

Hi ladies and gentlemen ? I was wondering if any can help here. A young lady I'm trying to help her find another job, she worked as a flight attendant for the last 10 years and she never had a c v at all! She wants to make a c v and as long as I know she never had any job except that job, and she wants to find another job that allows her to work normal hours that doesn't involve aviation at all. Anyone have a sample she can use it as a guide for making her own c v? The online ones are pretty basic and involve some normal office work or any other experience she didn't have, as she started the at the age of 21 to be a flight attendant after finishing the college. Any help? Thanks in advance

Why I have this feeling of everything is getting worse, then the VAT will arrive on January 2018 and to add up to all these expenses? It's getting harder really just to stay a float, cutting down on everything that isn't vital for day to day AND there is no saving at all.

Is it legal for an organization to not allow their employees to take unpaid leave? Now I understand if they reject it but to completely take it away and make it not an option?? I can't find anything about it online. I checked labor law but it does not state anything. I do remember there is unpaid leave as per the labour law, however it varies from free zone company to a governmental or simi government company Check whom your company do follow please

I guess these women are just lazy and don't want to work, giving bad name for their companies so their companies get out of business for any reason. Now you and your husband only in a small 3 bedrooms villa, both are working full time, so in reality the maid is alone by herself and none of you makes her do specific cleaning and they should be working on their own initiative, I've seen 7 years old clean thier classes after art and craft days and none of them complained about there is too much glitter on the floor! Your problem is: you never had a maid back home and you give them time to listen to thier stories, if you just keep it business strictly you'll be absolutely fine. Just don't entertain maids stories, they are at your place to clean it, they are employees, once you made her tea and chat with her you are just two women chatting over cockies and tea!

Nannygirl I am happy to post all the whatsapp messages with M to prove that she really was scum as we treated her with such kindness until The day she left. To the point the day she left I saw her taking a cushion I had thrown and she asked if she can borrow needle and thread. I said of course and she then told me she didn't have a pillow where she was going so I told her to take a pillow from Her room with her as the cushion won't be comfortable. I even paid her Extra on her last day to help out. When we flew her to the Philippines in August as we went to the uk For 6 weeks I bought her all the gifts she took for her family. How does she repay us? She lies and makes us pay a stupid amount for a flight she didn't get on. Disgusting really. gorobartie thanks for your advice but when we discovered she didn't get on the flight and was still in country we called her sister in law who pretended she didn't know where M was so we said she had 24hrs to send us copy of her exit stamp and we will have to go to immigration. My husband went the next day to file a case only to be told she had left to Oman that night.. Obviously her sister in law knew where she was. So thankfully we have washed our hands off her. I just wanted to warn families as u invest a lot of time in finding a good nanny to be part of your family and I don't want this happening to anyone. It is sad when u help someone and they do this. She is also Johova witness I bet they will love hearing about her behavior... Then you guys need to cancel her visa, I know it's a totally different thing from absconding report. Because she could enter UAE with that visa, and she will be still your responsibility. I assume she is back in UAE- hence she is in contact with other prospective employers- so just double check with Immegration she is out of UAE then apply for visa cancellation. If she is back then absconding report, either way you need to cut ties with her and you don't need to entertain phone calls asking for reference about her by just saying you decline giving such references. No need to say jhova wittiness or any of that sort, I get it you are upset from the whole issue, but really getting yourself worked out won't help you, after all she is unskilled worker and couldn't comply with her contract she signed, and can't keep any commitment to her job, so in a blunt statement: her loss on the long run. I hope this helps you in figuring out what is your next step then move on. G

OP, you might don't know, but you are STILL responsible for that maid, actually if she is involved in any illegal activities or been ill and gone to hospital; you are responsible. You should report her absconding from your service and that's how you wash your hands from any trouble she might involve your family in... Think about she might get pregnant out of wedlock and the employer IS the first male to be dragged to jail pending questioning.... Now you are giving your warning to unsuspecting families that might hire her- as I can understand that the man who contacted you isn't satisfied with your feedback on her- and now she is on the run. Make absconding report and pack her stuff and handed it over to Immegration police. Then move on with your life and leave her reap what she sown. HTH

Not sure about this, I could stand corrected tho If she already have her exit ticket then that's it. You don't buy her the one way ticket to home country, just pay her final salary and that's it.

Four men trying your door, then claim viewing an appartment, AND they are mistaken? I might be wrong, but I don't think they were tenants, and they could be burglars or anything of that sort. This trick had been used back in 2002 till 2005 in the neighbouring communities near Sharjah, I was living there 2 men did try this trick while I was alone, they kept trying the door and luckily it was looked, looked through the "magic eye" in the door and seen them trying the next door. Phoned the security downstairs and he was useless and later he said they were looking for renting an appartment there!!!! Stay safe

A professional bed warmer service ??? www.emirates247.com Monday, February 06, 2017 A woman named Viktoria Ivachyova has become the world's first professional bed warmer, charging £65 per night to lay in a stranger's bed. Viktoria Ivachyova lends a hand to people who want their bed to be warm as soon as they get into it at night, by renting her professional bed warming services. The 21 year old charges £65 per night or £1,350 per month to lay in a stranger's bed for an hour in order to make their chilly sheets cosy enough to help them drift off to sleep with ease. Once booked, the professional bed warmer arrives at the client's home at a scheduled time slot before their bedtime, puts on her pyjamas, and lays in their bed for an hour. Viktoria tells clients they are allowed to present in the room whilst she warms their bed up for them, but they cannot touch her. To reinforce these rules, she carries a panic button which alerts a security team should she need it. The rules are only in place to make sure Viktoria is safe, and she does allow her clients to talk to her whilst she works. Some of her customers even talk to her about their problems, and the Daily Mirror newspaper reports she claims to be a "great listener". The demand is so high for her service, Viktoria is now said to be putting together a team of bed warmers to tackle the increasing number of clients. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Must say I'd rather save the money and let hubby get in first. :lol::lol: ????????? Just when you think you've seen it all and heard it all! I remember this particular job was a job of wealthy, kings and queens long time ago... Some sort of 1800's or that sort.

In theory yes. But you need to check rentals over there, what power plan you can get, and if they allow pets... As for the good behaviour certificate you can obtain it in English from Al Mina police station on Al mina Road. Hth

Oh well! A friend of a friend had her child with them and it wasn't that much pleased. She had to change the school just by the end of the first term. The teachers are alright, it's the management that have a strange attitude toward parents, i dont have first hand info, but what I've heard was very negative. That friend did get her child back to the previous school prior to this one... I guess she discovered that things aren't that much rosy there.

Scrap off what makes you hate Christmas, giving comes from the heart, and if its a bother, then its no longer a blessing to both the giver and the receiver. :-) :gift: What made you have this idea? Again as I said it's a me thread, can't you see the commercialised Christmas we are experiencing? The fact of being an expat lived in several countries, over the time friendships and all sort of ties get weaken, 5 years ago we used to expect family stay with us, now due to family members get really old - they can't fly- or the children get older and have life and summer jobs in the countries they are living in. What blessing of gifts you are talking about? Come back in 15 years of living as an expat and tell me about how many greeting cards you'll receive after that. Merry Christmas She was advising you to ditch the parts of Christmas that you no longer enjoy and to embrace the parts you do. No wonder you're so miserable at this time of year if you can't see the positive message she was proposing. Says the poster who replied at 2:30 am Keep talking about your miserable life please.

This year I just can't stand the celebration of Xmas! I used to like it and love it, now I just hate it. Just put on the happy face for the children sake but really I can't stand it anymore. Buying gifts and sending it to relatives that we don't see anymore, buying gifts to friends and teachers we don't really know, writting Xmas cards with nice wishes for people and never get a card in return. Is it only me or someone else's going through the same? I'm officially now a troll ? Merry Christmas everyone and wish you a happy new and safe new year. P.S I can't wait till I see the back of 2016 I hate 2016
