Will my Xbox 360 work in Dubai?
I'm moving to Dubai from the US and I waned to know if its worth it for me to bring my Xbox over or if I should sell it and buy a new one over there? I'm just concerned that none of the games I buy there will work on it since it's a region1 Xbox. Any techies out there who can help me with this question? Should I sell it or bring it with me?

i think you have to be a american converter cord to plug it in
2 :
You will need to bring a power converter for your 360 to work... and you cant play any games you get there... You should probably sell your 360 and get another one there, it would be easier...
3 :
you should bring it because you could sell it out there.
4 :
The games out there will not work. Mine as well just sell the console and buy a new one there. Unless you are just staying there for a little in that case buy one when you get there & keep this one for when you get back.

if you get a job there, please do not keep me on hold for friggin 30 minutes.... please just transfer me to your supervisor like i asked in the first place....

my friend told me the salary is very good.go on do it.

The richest country in the world may not be the best place to work. First, do you know anybody there, to teach you the culture and way of life. second, it helps if you know the language. Money, or a hefty salary is not the answer to happiness. I got friends, a whole family, that use to live there and they actually own a business there and they told me that it is ok, but they won't recommend it in a heartbeat. My dad, actually work in its neighboring country for two decades and he would'nt recommend it.

yes is true as is the country which is wealth of oil transportation and export to outside country

It is right that Dubai belongs to one of the richtest countries. If salaries are great depends what you call a great salary and on your life style. The salary you receive depends also on your profession, experience and sad but true: on your nationality. It's not only the salary that's count living here, it's the salary package which should incl. Salary, housing allowance, transportation, health care and a once a year ticket back home. Salaries vary from Dhs 400 for cleaning staff to Dhs 800 - Dhs1.200 for workers and up to Dhs 2.500 to 4.000 for people working in the private sector working as sales persons or in offices. These people are mostly from the Phillippiniens, Pakistan and the Indian Subcontinent. The salary of a teacher or a nurse can be higher depending if he/she works for a private clinic/school or for the govt. sector. Also people working in the banking sector will receive a higher salary. Most Westerners would not work for that kind of money coz they won't leave their home country to work in the UAE for less then back home. The salary packages for Westerners will mostly start with a basic salary of minimum Dhs 10.000 and rent will be paid. Pleas note that the a.m. salaries are only averages and must not suit everybody. Start looking for a suitable job offer advertised by recruitment agencies online.

Female foreign workers not recommended to work in Dubai/Sharjah
Female foreign workers not recommended to work in Dubai/Sharjah?!?
I have been hearing some stories that foreign working women are treated badly in the Dubai/Sharjah. Is this true? Not for the sex business...I have been hearing stories that office female workers arent treated equally or whatever sort of unfairness. How true is this?

Duh!!!! Why do you think the sex trade is so huge there???? watch this documentary: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2454256015534148959&ei=f3RaSI_YEIjGqALvkLiIAw&hl=en

Not only in Dubai and Sharjah. The UAE is full of foreign male nationals who are not used to that a woman makes the same kind of money than men. Many times that can lead to problems. Not to long ago I read a letter to the editor in the Gulf news. A guy of a certain nationality wrote: A gap between salaries of male and female employees is necessary. In case the woman makes the same amount as the man or even more, it will mostly cause problems in their marriage. After reading this I talked to a french boss of 7 (of this certain nationality) who wants to have an european lady on his team. So far he did not find anybody because every woman fears to be mobbed by the men because she will at least make the same money. It would be wrong to generalize but most problems you have to expect in case your future collegues are Indians and Pakistanis (no offense, please!) and you earn the same or even more. This should not keep you away from working in the UAE. The UAE has a good working law. Just stand up for your rights and put people politley in place where necessary. Take care. edit Vinod: if a woman works together with a majority of a certain nationality which are not used to equal rights a woman mostly (not always) has to face problems. You can not deny that.

it depends what business ur in and yr nationality, asian maids have always been treated badly, as have asian women in some workplaces, when i was in the local hospital having my baby the local women talked to the indian consultant like she was their maid. its always been like that, i lived there a few years ago. if u want to find good treatment try a western company or the same nationality as ur.
4 :
Dear, In my experience, I dont think so, because many (mostly) of the working ladies are foreigners, and I believe most of them are not facing any problems like bad treatment from colleagues or superiors. In my company, a good treatment and equal status is given for foreign lady employees. Thx
5 :
pls see intl labour organisations web there is detailed report of the plight of female employes based on real life experience their interviews / follow up and conclusions . a brief note is also seen in the cia web site .. the former is athoritative data
6 :
Probably depends on the employer. I work for a really good employer and there doesn't seem to be any gender discrimination. The Westerners seem to make a lot more than the Indians though.
