Lived in Dubai for 4 years, only moved here because I was offered a massive salary increase (with bonuses, more than double of what i was making there) for barely any real work.
Always go back and forth each month to keep from going crazy, moving back permanently this summer anyway. Always notice the jealous reaction when Dubai is mentioned here btw, makes me chuckle.
Piece of advice though, not being able to take criticism is the main reason holding back progress. Telling someone stop complaining/go back makes little sense if there is a genuine issue at hand. It just makes you look defensive and scared of the truth.
Come to think of it, this is one of the reasons why construction work (and most work in general) here is so low quality and slow. Because companies, much like people here, tend to get really defensive when someone points out their mistakes. Its like they are afraid to even think of improving themselves.
As for BO, I just came by that road again today and the quality of the part already finished is, quiet literally, garbage. I cant believe they'll get paid for such ultra low quality work. It would be funny, if it wasnt so utterly sad/depressing to look at.
This is why the slow pace of work is even more surprising, theyre not making the Burj Khalifa out there (or will they ever in a thousand years lol), its a simple, poorly planned, designed and laid out road.
Out in dubai, this company would be laughed at and thrown out not just because they are so slow, but because they really dont know what theyre doing.
