    Default An American who moved to Dubai for work


    I'm not sure if you read this before.

    I don't know if this is true, my friend forward this story...
    its hillarious ahehehehe.


    =============================================


    Can you relate to this one…?!



    This following extract is taken from an American
    who moved to Dubai last year...2007

    April 30th:

    Just got transferred to work and live in beautiful Dubai , UAE! WOW!!! Now
    this is a city that knows how to live!!! Beautiful sunny days and warm balmy
    evenings. It's like New York City minus all the crocks, murderers, and
    drunks. What a place! I watched the sunset from a deck chair on my beautiful
    bedroom verandah. It was beautiful. I've finally found my home. I love it
    here.

    May 13th:

    Really heating up. Got to 95 degrees today. Not a problem. Live in an air-
    conditioned home, drive an air-conditioned car, and everything is fully
    air-conditioned. What a pleasure to see the sun everyday like this. I'm
    turning into a sun worshipper.

    May 30th:

    Had the backyard landscaped with tropical plants today around our lovely
    pool.Lots of palms and rocks. What a breeze to maintain. No more mowing
    lawn for me. Another scorcher today, but I love it here. Heat is no problem
    at all.

    June 10th:

    The temperature hasn't been below 95 all week even during the night. How do
    people get used to this kind of heat? At least today it's kind of windy
    though. But getting used to the heat is taking longer than I expected.

    July 15th:

    Fell asleep by the pool. Got 3rd degree burns over 90% of my body. Missed 5
    days of work. What a dumb thing to do in this lovely city. I learned my
    lesson though. Got to respect the ol' sun in a climate like this.

    July 20th:

    Kitty (our cat) sneaked into the car when I left for the office. By the time
    I got to the hot car for my lunch break, Kitty had died and swollen up to
    the size of a shopping bag and stank up the $60,000 Audi. I told the kids
    that she ran away. The car now smells like Wiskettes and cat shit. I learned
    my lesson though. No more pets in this heat.

    July 25th:

    The wind sucks. It feels like a giant F(word)ing hair dryer in here!!! And it's
    hot as hell. The home air-conditioner died. The F(word)ing AC repairman charged
    500 Dirhams just to drive over and tell me it was broken in F(word)ing Hindu
    English or some language that I couldn't understand.

    July 30th:

    Air conditioner still broken. Been sleeping outside by the pool for 3 nights
    now because it is 7000 F(word)ing degrees inside. Bloody 2,000,000 Dirhams
    house and we can't even go inside. Why did I ever come here? F(word) the sun.
    F(word) the wind. F(word) the freakin' ocean. And F(word)ing locals walk around
    dressed in white tableclothsfollowed bylittle black female ninjas.F(word)ing
    crazy town.

    August 4th:

    It's 114 F(word)ing degrees today. Finally got the ol' air-conditioner fixed.
    It cost 2,000 F(word)ing Dirhams and got the temperature down to 25, but the
    F(word)ing humidity makes the house feel 30 F(word)ing Dubai
    degrees. Stupid terrorist repairman. I hate this stupid F(word)ing place.

    August 8th:

    If another local wiseass cracks, 'Hot enough for you today?' I'm going to
    F(word)ing whack him all the way back to his goddamn desert. F(word)ing Dubai ; by
    the time I get to work with all that F(word)ing traffic and heat, the car's
    radiator is boiling over, my clothes are soaking wet, and I smell like a
    baked cat!!!

    August 9th:

    Tried to run some errands today because it is F(word)ing Friday. Wore shorts
    and sat on the black leather seats in my Audi. The seat was so F(word)ing hot I
    thought my ass was on fire. I lost 2 layers of flesh and all the hair on the
    back of my legs and my F(word)ing ass. Now my car smells like burnt hair, fried
    ass, and a baked cat.

    August 10th:

    The weather report might as well be a F(word)ing recording. Hot, humid and
    F(word)ing sunny. Hot, humid and F(word)ing sunny. Hot, humid and F(word)ing sunny.
    It's been too hot to do anything for 2 damn months and the weatherman dude
    wearing the F(word)ing white tablecloth on TV says it might really warm up next
    week. Does it ever rain in this damn F(word)ing place? What is next, a F(word)ing
    hell freezing over wave?

    August 14th:

    WELCOME
    TO HELL!!! Temperature got to 120 today. Now the air-conditioner' s
    gone in my F(word)ing Audi. The F(word)ing Audi serviceman said, 'Hot enough for
    you today?' F(word) him and F(word) Audi. My wife had to spend the 7,000 Dirham to
    bail my ass out of jail for assaulting that stupid F(word)ing Paki bastard
    wiseass. F(word) Dubai ! What kind of a sick demented F(word)ing idiot would want
    to live in this shit hole?

    August 15th: (Independence Day ?)

    F(word) this place.....I am off back to New York ........ .....
