Let me try to answer your questions...

I do not know why some companies withhold peoples passports but i know not all companies do so..i once told my company to hold mine so that i do not misplace it...i am a bit forgetful sometimes. My company declined stating that if my passport were to go missing or get damaged in their care then it would be a financial burden on them. My friend here always requests for her passport at any time she needs it and it is given to her... so i would say it all depends on the company and not ALL companies. There is no law in UAE saying you must give your passport to your company.

as per living costs and conditions... it depends on time management and planning..if you cook your meals in UAE by yourself then forget it..feeding costs is affordable...Living costs..by that you must mean electricity bills and rent...the answer to that lies in the amount of roommates you have..if you are 6 in a room in sharjah you will pay between 400-500 aed per month and if you are earning around 1500 aed that would be high right?...hence the reason why there are as many as 8 in a room to save costs. Now put it like this if a company that actually employs you legally is involved then as low as that salary is there will be side benefits such as housing and transport but that the conditions of the rooms are bad..that is mainly because of the occupants and the fact that they are sharing amenities...Now let me tell you what i have noticed...Fillipinos in UAE try to save money irrespective of how much they earn so they live 8 to 12 in a room. But the rooms are always clean and tidy and funny enough you will never hear loud chatter or music..Am i saying that Africans are noisy and dirty..YES..most are. You and your roomies if you can agree can always remove bunks and put beds in the room and Behind it up...

Hope i have answered your questions based on what i know...meanwhile you said you worked in adverse weather conditions..please tell them o...because they will now say they did not know UK has -16 degrees Celsius and UAE has +45/48 degrees Celsius in extreme periods...ehnnnn

As per why we are talking of menial jobs..me self i tiya...menial jobs do not have Nigerian stamp on them in UAE...at all..far from it..in fact Nigerians are revered because they appreciate our literacy and education..or else why do we have nurses and doctors here..the only reason Nigerians face menial jobs in UAE is time...3 months visa is not enough most times to land a job given that the GLOBAL ECONOMY is facing challenges...so most people resort to whatever they see...and why do they do so? because when they experience light 24/7, AC 24/7, internet facilities 24/7...they begin to have HOPE and BELIEF that in time they will get a better life here.
Am sure some people think that when they enter Canada money will just start running up to them at the runway and saying take me take me...the truth is that most Nigerians in UK,Canada or US do the same old things...marry citizens to save their necks or hide from the Law cos they are illegal immigrants..the rest study and do G...
