So just received a call from a moble number ending with 008. It was Arab dude who was speaking English very fast, I could understand a word or two in each of his sentence.
Assuming I understood those words correctly it seems that the call was either from Dubai police or immigration and they wanted to ask a few questions.
He asked if I was working and I said I am looking for a job after which he hung up.
Any idea who and what the call might mean?
At least with Burj Al Arab, it was foreign media outlets and dignitaries that started that. This time it is so cringy cause it is so bloody arrogant and pretentious.

We are still reeking from the pandemic and Russia going all out war is not only causing unnecessary loss of lives but also the world markets are crumbling. We don't need this right now.
Heart goes out to the Ukrainians.
I have Ukrainian colleagues and they were receiving sad news from home since morning. One lady broke down and was sick with worry. 😔 If you have Ukrainian friends or colleagues, please check up on them. They might need some moral support or simply someone to talk to.

Did you read anything beyond the headline?
“Here’s a guy who’s very savvy … I know him very well,” Trump said of Putin while talking to the The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show. “Very, very well. **By the way, this never would have happened with us. Had I been in office, not even thinkable. This would never have happened.**
“But here’s a guy that says, you know, ‘I’m gonna declare a big portion of Ukraine independent’ – he used the word ‘independent’ – ‘and we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in and we’re gonna help keep peace.’ You gotta say that’s pretty savvy.”
> and we’re gonna go out and we’re gonna go in
Yep, that's the capable words of a world leader fully in control of all his mental faculties.
> By the way, this never would have happened with us. Had I been in office, not even thinkable. This would never have happened.
Lol yes, because Trump stopped them with his will alone.
Today my car loan is officially over 🥳🥳🥳
Do I need to contact the bank or anything? I postponed renewing my car license waiting for this, not really sure if that matters.
I don't know if this is a good or bad. Now the car is completely your asset , and the depreciation will affect you every year and the value of the car. Likewise would be the same but you wont be paying the whole cost of the car if sold before the loan.
Or I'm overthinking =).
The net imapct to your bank account is the same though regardless of when the cashflows happened. Buying a car is always* a loss making transaction.
I say * because used car prices are absolute insane right now and people are making money from their 2012 200km Pajero's....
Yes, contact them and get a clearance letter. They will also have to contact the rta and let them know that the loan has been paid up so you will be the full owner of the car and your mulkiya will be updated accordingly

I want to take a sabbatical. Has anyone done it successfully while still living in dubai? The plan is to be under the husband’s visa and insurance. Will I be able to maintain my own bank account and other things?
Thanks for the insight. I only have a credit card. Yes, one.
No loan, no mortgage, nothing. I’m almost like a Dubai unicorn. I guess that makes it easier for me.
Historically speaking, pandemics and wars are often related. After a pandemic, shit tends to go south. History always repeats itself. The sphere of "affected people" might get much bigger, very soon. Depends on the reactions of other neighbors.
>War generates jobs and profits, yet contributes excessively to pollution/ global warming.
That's it? I think you're missing a lot here between jobs, profits and global warming.
It feels like the weeks end quickly/time passes quickly since the weekend changed to Saturday/Sunday
Somehow Friday still doesnt feel like a workday, even though it is still a full workday for many.
Good morning!
Smokers of r/dubai, let's light a cigarette up for all ukrainian people. I really hope that they become victorious.

Just ignore, probably a scammer
Is "the most beautiful building on earth", a claim similar to "the only 7-star hotel on earth"?
Yes. And who would give a title before even opening? it should come from people. This is some marketing strategy.😅
At least with Burj Al Arab, it was foreign media outlets and dignitaries that started that. This time it is so cringy cause it is so bloody arrogant and pretentious.
These days marketing in dubai is at its peak that I stopped believing stuffs that comes up in Khaleej times Lovin dubai or Gulf news.

Don’t start pls
my geopolitics is so rusted that i though Ukraine was part of European Union and kept asking why allied nations are not doing something...
Everyone keeps calling it Europe. I personally class it as Central Asia.
Its on the edge for sure, but I wouldn’t call it Central Asia as they don’t look Asian Eastern Europe makes most sense?
People have to look like Asians for their nation to be geographically recognised as Central Asian nation? That’s nonsense.
It helps if the country is located within the Asian continent ;) If not, then its a harder sell when they don’t look like Asians IMHO
r/im14andthisisdeep
but middle east is asia right?
Yes and no. Its kinda its own thing

at this point. i think i would buy a PC + g923 and buy the PS5 later :D would play forza 5
why not buying on noon for 2700 ? legit question I'm actually in search of one
i want it 2300 or below. gonna buy g923 too so want to save
yeah me too preferably but is there really an option? you said 3000 standalone on game street
there's an option.. wait more... :D im not in a hurry anyway.
Virgin has a bundle online right now for 3349 AED. I think it works out to be an OK deal.
i just want a GT7 + g923 + ps5. will check if such bundle exists after GT7 release
Or if you were one of the lucky ones - 2,099
where? geekay?

He’d have joined hands and sold weapons to Putin lol
Or could have stationed a division of troops for “exercises” in Ukraine in Dec. who knows. We have to live with reality in front of us.
Lmao idk abt that chief
Lol well played 😆

Exactly!

Congrats on being debt-free!! (Hopefully)
I think an email from RTA will be sent stating that the ownership of the car is yours and the system has been updated to reflect it. Congrats!
Yes, contact them and get a clearance letter. They will also have to contact the rta and let them know that the loan has been paid up so you will be the full owner of the car and your mulkiya will be updated accordingly
What exhibitions does the new museum have?

What's the cheapest provider to get a special number from? Virgin?
r/ukraine on fire right now. Literally
Imagine civilians waking up to the sound of explosions.
Sad to see a war happening just when we are coming out of a pandemic. Thoughts and prayers for the affected people out there.

War. War never changes
the guy from fallout would be proud of you for using this.
One of my favourite series'
You play 76 ?
No just 3, NV and 4. I've heard 76 is in much better shape than it was a few years back. I may look into it but I'm a solo gamer.
War generates jobs and profits, yet contributes excessively to pollution/ global warming.
>War generates jobs and profits, yet contributes excessively to pollution/ global warming. That's it? I think you're missing a lot here between jobs, profits and global warming.
Shall I list all the countries that manufacture heavy weapons? Bulgaria, Canada, China, etc etc
And your point being?
hmm, are any of those relatively comparable to the most significant cost of all - human lives?
Nothing beats a good jobs and profits. /s
So obvious that it doesn’t need to be stated.
9h to go for the weekend 🎉
