Title: University students looking to interview a cafeteria owner in Dubai (20–30 mins)

Hi everyone,

I'm a business and finance student in Dubai, and my group and I are working on a university project about how small food businesses operate here. Right now we're looking for a cafeteria owner (or manager) who'd be open to a short interview.

We're still finalising our questions as a group, but they'll cover things like how you got started, what running a cafeteria in Dubai is like day to day, and the challenges and lessons you've picked up along the way.

The interview would take about 20–30 minutes and can be in person at your cafeteria or over a call, whatever works best for you. We're happy to fit around your schedule. Since our university requires evidence that the interview took place, we'd need to include your name and your business's name in our project, along with a video or voice recording of the interview (your choice). It's purely for academic purposes and will only be shared as part of our coursework.

If you own a cafeteria or know someone who does and might be up for a chat, please comment or send me a DM. We'd really appreciate it!

Thanks so much 🙏

Looking for long term friend.

I’m 20, Jordanian, and was raised in Dubai. I spent the last 1.5 years studying Mechanical Engineering in the Netherlands, but realized I was doing it for the wrong reasons. Rather than sticking with something I wasn’t passionate about, I decided to switch paths and I’m starting a Business & Finance degree this fall.

Outside of uni, I’m into football, the gym, investing, finance, and self-improvement. I also love long conversations about pretty much anything—business, culture, current events, or random late-night thoughts.
I’d say I’m a good listener, and my friends would probably describe me as supportive and easy to talk to. I’m open-minded, progressive, and always trying to improve myself.

Anyone interested my DMs are open for discord voice chat as I like to talk tbh.

Hey! Figured I’d give Reddit a shot since dating apps haven’t really gone anywhere.

I’m looking for someone who enjoys genuine conversations, can laugh at dumb jokes, and would be down for those late-night calls where you end up talking about everything and nothing.

I’m 5’9, brunette with brown eyes (apparently they were blue when I was a baby lol).

Ideally you’re in Europe because of the time difference, but I’m open to anywhere if we click. If you think we’d get along, send me a DM :)

I have tried using dating apps before but nothing substantial came out of it, so Im here shooting my shoot

Hi, Im M20. I have a lot of interests ranging from football, gym and sports in general. I also love investing and finance in general. I used to study mechanical engineering in the netherlands however I dropped out after 1.5 years as I realize I was doing it for the wrong reasons and now Im gonna start a new undergrad in business and finance coming this fall. I was raised in dubai, Im ethnically Jordanian.

Im 5 foot 9, Light skin basically white tbh, brunette and brown eyes, tho they were blue when I was a baby.

I love talking to people, hopping on calls and discussing a multitude of different topics ranging from business, culture, current events, etc. I also love self improvement and working on myself both mentally and physically. I have seen a lot of progress in a lot of aspects of my life when I adopted this lifestyle and would love to share it with other people as well.

My friends say Im a very good listener and supportive and caring. I like helping people if they have issues and help them look at from multiple angles if that makes sense. Im also left leaning and progressive.

Im looking for someone who is open minded and would love to go on a journey together. I want us to hop on late night calls, giggling and laughing each other to sleep. Ideally someone where we can talk to each other about everything under the sun.

Physically preferences: Tbh I prefer lighter skinned women and lighter hair color (brunette or blonde) and eyes (blue or green). However that doesn’t cross anyone out, If you think we would be a good match shoot me a dm and we can see if things work out.

Would prefer if in europe due to closer time zone but other time zones are also fine tbh

Global reputation of Uofb compared to Herriot watt

I have offers from both unis and Uofb is more expensive, both dubai campuses as I don’t plan on working in the uk right after graduation due to visa restrictions regarding sponsorship for international students. However I want to pick a degree that has global reputation specifically in the middle east and Asia. Any insights from any grads would be highly appreciated and also difference in reputation in the gcc as it is the most relevant for me and if Uofb is worth the extra price tag as in the name and brand of the uni. Does a UofB degree increase employment prospects better than Herriot watt to justify the cost difference between the unis of around 40 K pounds. Interested in doing business with finance with aspirations of working in wealth management in Europe, riyadh or dubai.
