We have diversity in Dubai, But we don't have inclusion here. Do you agree, what are your thoughts.?
I went to a shop to look for a job for a friend , they had a cashier job openings, upon inquiry they mentioned it was only for a certain race.
I asked why they said as per management.
I read an article yesterday that a delivery rider was exhausted and sat in a chair in a shop, he was asked to leave , the observer asked them why so, they say as per management.
, I work in a comfortable AC room, I walk to my nearest Viva store to get some lunch everyday at 2pm,
But I see delivery riders sitting outside everyday.
I inquired why so, can't they sity anywhere inside. He said they aren't allowed inside. Hotels, superstores don't let them in.
One good initiative by govt of Dubai is delivery riders resting areas. At different spots, but. They are too few and far apart.
I was moved when I heard his story, there are lot more things he told me which almost made me a 34 years old man cry.
I asked him would you like to eat or drink something, I insisted. He said no.
When will we stop living as per management and start living as per god.
We all are one, his creation. Poor people are humans too. How can we treat them so bad. I hope this world heals soon.
So I live near MOE , as usual I was walking to my home back from office, I heard a woman call out to me I turned and saw her. She was a Russian woman she would be around 40 years, she was standing and saying something to me.
I asked her what she is saying she pointed to a restaurant and said I want to eat food and asked me to pay money.
Where I come from you never say no to someone when they ask for food. Immediately accepted and took her to the hotel and asked her to buy whatever she needs , mind you we both understood each other barely.
She ordered 38 AED biriyani and an 15 AED orange.
In my 1 year's stay in Dubai I've never eaten in the same hotel a biriyani for more than 20 AED and orange juice is something Is something I feel is unnecessary spending.
My concern is .. was i punked or am I overthinking and she genuinely needed someone's help.
Btw when I met her she had some yogurt thingy in her hand.
My gut feeling says something was not right.
Has anyone experienced this.?
P.s: This is not an attack on Russian women, she could've been from any country and my feelings about the situation will have been same.
and for everyone saying, just AED 52, it's a significant amount for me I allocate such budget for 2 day meals. Not everyone is financially privileged, I have 800 AED in my account and 30 long days ahead.
