Sleep Aids come in two types - muscle relaxants - that help you relax, stop the fidgeting and help you fall asleep more easily, then - 'the ones that actually affect the brain' (sorry I'm sure this isn't the technical explanation!). In order to wake up fresh, you'll want a muscle relaxant. Aren't most muscle relaxations prescription only? :)

Hi there, My maid asked me about a question about emergency leave for a friend of hers. He is apparently a baker in Abu Dhabi, and his father has passed away. His employer has apprently refused to let him take emergency leave to attend the funeral. Is this legal? I'd love to hear if any of you have any advice please. My maid has been with us for about 18 months and is a very trustworthy person, so I do believe her. Many thanks There isn't anything in the labor law to say that in these circumstances leave has to be given Most companies will allow up to 3 days off paid but it is up to each company

Anyone else placed an order at Sephora during the black Friday sale? This was my first order at the US site and I got everything I wanted :D I got it shipped to my MyBox address so they charged me tax. Any idea whether I could it back? It's not much but if I can get back, I would definitely do since I am planning to place more orders Was the tax for Duba customs import duty? If the cost of the products were over a certain amount then Dubai customs will charge you which cannot be claimed back

Fair enough, taxis here are extremely cheap and so many other options of transport are available. As a European we are used to walk, bicylcle and whatever in rain and snow. When I was last in the UK I offered a taxi driver a fortune to give us a lift home. It was 1am, freezing cold and the taxi queue was 40 people deep. I for one don't mind the increase in fares as it is preferable to standing in the freezing cold at 1am ( [b'>We are so spoilt here[/b'>) :-) Don't say that as next thing you know, they will be upping something else. Guinness was only asking last week, why the metro has gone up since predominantly lower income workers are using it, since she said that, taxis have also gone up..... and no doubt there will be more. As cheap as it may be (to some of us), all these extras add up. edited by Alismum on 25/11/2014 I should edit that to say I am spoilt. I rarely use metros or cabs but see your point regarding the lower income workers on the metro x

Please can someone tell me what it means when a bank says they are commencing legal process? I have been unemployed, started a new job and now wanted to make payments to rectify outstanding debts - now the bank wont talk to me unless I go to their office (I cant, I am at work before and after they open and close) and they want to meet at my new office (I cant have my personal finances discussed in the small open office). I have offered to meet them off site but they refused. Can someone assist me or refer me to a helpline or legal advisor? Thanks Can you explain that your office doesn't have a meeting room so they cannot come to your place of work or go to see them in your lunch hour As far as I am aware there aren't any legal advisors or helplines that can help you with this dilemma.

There are so many threads on this Put Botox in the search posts above and you will find many recommendations I used to go to DR Jafar Khan and Dr Rezai as they both used Dysport which I felt was the best. You would pay from 1400-1800 forehead, bunnies and around the eyes. They don't do it per unit. Many of the cheaper surgeons heavily water it down or use cheaper versions and that is probably why you haven't seen the benefits that you did before, in addition to that you do build a slight tolerance to it so will never look as amazing as you did the firs time I have it done in the UK now as it is much cheaper

Hoping someone has experience of this... an apartment is rented to a company on the behalf of their employees, with the renewal date due December 10th. The landlord gave the company notice of rent increase as per rent calculator 90 days in advance. The company didn't agree with the increase because they say it is a 2 bedroom, not 3 bedroom apartment, as indicated on the Ejari document THE COMPANY registered. It is a 2 bed room plus maid and study. So a couple of emails went back and forth discussing whether increase was due and Ejari doc being incorrect etc. In any case, the company is now terminating the contract of the employee and have realised no longer needs the apartment from December 10th. They say no further notice is required as rent increase was not agreed and therefore they will not pay anything after December 10th. Other than keeping the deposit, should what further compensation should be due, and how does one go about getting the compensation? Many thanks I would head on down to the Rent Committee for clarification on this

They can tell you what the law is

So I was getting my nails done at my regular salon.There were no other clients, probably because it was 10 AM. These 3 foreigner ladies stepped in for a blow dry, it took them 10 mins to explain they need a blow dry (they could not speak more than few words of English). Hair dresser told them price and additional charge for doing blow dry for hair extensions as well. While girls were working on their hair, those ladies were not happy with the work. Hairdresser was turning blue (with anger :lol: after one of the ladies kept calling her "Not professional" ), she than offered them if they dont like her work, may be they can go to some other salon. They did not leave and asked the girls to finish job. After finishing the work, they refused to pay any money. Hairdresser was already ****** off, she asked them pay otherwise she'll call police. They said "we prefer police" and started smoking INSIDE the salon, kept yelling, calling salon girls with different names while making the video. Police arrived, they continued with police officer, refused to delete any photos or videos (including mine :cry: ) refused to pay any money. After 2 hours, they finally had to pay, delete the videos and leave. Saying Dubai is a ****** place, they pay only 5 Euro in France to get hair done and this salon along with police ripped them off. Poor salon girls were in tears and embarrassed. I was speechless at the end of my service and I dont know if i will ever go back to them, i just feel weird. I dont know why some people will create so much drama? those ladies could simply go to some other salon or the salon girls could leave the money. :nerd: I dread to think what salon they went to in France where a blow dry was EURO 5 I have been in many salons here where clients have abused the staff. I would love to see them behave this way in my salon at home. At the first sign of trouble my hairdresser would of stopped her work and shown them the door. I do feel that some people feel other nationalities are inferior to them and that they should be treated like royalty. Did you say anything as I [b'>would of [/b'>found it hard to keep quiet?

When you bring food items across, packet mixes etc, do you just put them in hold luggage? Yes, you should be fine packing it all in the checked-in luggage. Spice mix won't get you in trouble. Customs will question you over pharmaceuticals, vitamins, and poppy seeds (for culinary use or otherwise) found in luggage. I smile politely and explain what kind of vitamins or pharmaceuticals I've brought in, and yes, the quantity is for my personal use and not intended to be re-sold. Poppy seeds, however, can land you in jail. Yikes!! I had no idea about the poppy seeds. Guess who brought some back recently for baking purposes as I couldn't find them here.....can I ask why they will and you in trouble? Oooooh, made me a little faint! I believe they contain small traces of opiates which are banned here There was an incident a few years back where I guy was arrested at the airport carrying them

Mrs13b - if you know which building you want then just go into the building speak to security and find out who the building management is. Also ask them if they know which apartments are available, or becoming available. If the building is fully occupied (I have no idea, never heard of cayan tower) give the security guard a hundred dhs to keep you updated on anyone vacating the property. Also a quick google would have given you this details: Cayan Homes Real Estate Broker LLC Cayan Tower-Dubai Marina Ground Floor Tel: +971 4 3699910 Fax: +971 4 3605112 P.O.Box 643731, Dubai, UAE I think Cayan tower is the twisty one that was oringially called Infiniti

Why are people staying if they are struggling to afford the cost of living here? This is a real question Wnt to get perspective. Tere are no rights, no standard qualities (family, free healthcare, forced pension being accrued by the covenant from wages - the things tax pay for and family basically). Is it for the tax free living? I have looked at rent prices people are paying and the prices add to near annual tax rates.And for those paying school fees for why everyone seems to rear to as public equivalent schools, the costs here prove to be higher than a tax paying life. If you are one of the ones not saving, why is that? Really not being sarcastic, only asking to get a wider perspective. We are staying purely because neither of us can find work back in the UK. Yes we are saving, but only very little. If we are forced to leave our villa in the next couple of years, that could be a different matter, unless rent goes down I think many people are in the same boat GE

I live in the meadows as well and I think the prices seemed to have stopped increasing as much and there seemed to be more villas at the lower rent rate. From a local Facebook forum someone had suggested that because there is a surplus of villas being built it's slowing down the rent increase. How true that is though I'm not sure, however, I have noticed a slight change myself A few people in my building came from villas and have now downsized from 2 and 3 beds to 1 bed because of the cost. It's the game of supply and demand and many people moved closer from Sharjah etc into Dubai as the rents dropped drastically. I wonder if these people will have to move back to the more affordable areas thus leaving properties in Dubai empty therefore causing the rents to drop
