Literature / Re: Love Story Of A Unilag Babe And Bus Conductor by Tinkybabe(f): 1:12am On Nov 19, 2014 |
Touching! Title/Class causes disparity and division. If in our everyday dealings and interaction we can look beyond title for once and see everybody foremost for what they are - human beings, the world would be a better place. She's a student, he's a conductor, this status could change anytime but one "unchanging" fact about them is that they are human beings... "Strip the world of class and no one would be crass" |

Family / Re: How Do I Stop My Baby From Thumb Sucking? by Tinkybabe(f): 8:55am On Jul 27, 2014 |
Omexonomy: Dont rub anything in the hand or play any foul play with the finnger. What the child is experiencing is due genetic disorder that disturb some children which will be over by the age of 6 or 7. Thumb sucking by babies and toddlers- a genetic disorder? Nawa o!what won't I read on nairaland. It's as natural as anything- not a disorder o! If it continues till adulthood, it could be attributed to some sort of habit induced disorder-- yet ,not in all cases. Op,your son would outgrow it,they usually do- if you are desperate thou, you could adopt the bitter leaf stuff. 1 Like |
Family / Re: How To Achieve Better Communication Skills by Tinkybabe(f): 8:29am On Jul 27, 2014 |
Nice one! It was also obvious that the behaviour was not typical of Kunle. His bad day triggered that action which his wife understood perfectly, his response to his wife's query proves it. Let me introduce a twist to your story After Esther asked if he had a bad day,his response, " what silly question are you asking me?I just complained about the house being messy and you're asking me a silly question. " "But honey, I'm just concerned about you" replied Esther quietly but the harsh "save it for yourself!" she got from her husband sent a cold shiver down her spine. In this instance, silence is best whilst he's left alone to be by himself ..The wife could then approach him later to ask what the problem is/was? Patience is the engine oil of effective communication. Op, nice tips and example by the way 13 Likes |

Is the cost price referring to Taye's cost price? Is the selling price,the price it was sold to Taye or the stipulated selling price? **confused** |

Education / Re: Not For The Weak Minds; Try This Quantitative Reasoning Question. by Tinkybabe(f): 9:47am On Jul 21, 2014 |
McWhillion: Q1 Thanks for the compliment But I quite disagree with your no 2, no doubt the Op is the cause of this problem because of the great ambiguity of the question Anyway, here go..I disagree both grammatically and logically 1) For clarity sake- let's use "increase" instead of markup. If he meant the final price , it would have been phrased as marked up price ie increased price not increase price /price increase. Price increase refers to the amount of money added to the original to arrive at the final price. 2) If we are to go with your claim, expressing the final price as a percentage of profit made defies business reasoning . This is because your profit is the difference between the cost and selling price and making the mark up priceyour final price to get percentage profit means the total selling price is a profit and we know this isn't true. |

Let's assume she left home with t(20% of total money) She left at home 4t (80% of total money ) and In total had 5t Initial price of radio= (0.25t + t)= 1.25t= 5/4t Final price = 50%(4t) = 2t Original (should have been) price = y =7/4t 2t= y+(100/7%)y 2t= y+1/7y= 8/7y Hence y = 2t(7/8 )= 7/4t Now we have a uniform variable 1) difference btw original and initial price as a percentage of total money Ie (7/4 -5/4 )t = 1/2t or 0.5t % of total money = (0.5/5)100= 10% 2) what percent of the profit is the mark up price? Total profit made = final price -initial price ie. 2t - 5/4t = 3/4t Mark up price = (100/7)% of y = (1/7)7/4t = 1/4t (Recall y = 7/4t from above) Percentage profit in mark up price = (1/4 divided by 3/4)100 (0.25/0.75)100 = 33.33%** PS- Op..the second question is ambiguous- do you mean profit made from original price or final price? I assumed profit from final price though. 4 Likes |

heykims: With all due respect,a medical doctor's line of duty can never be threatened by a nurse, what do nurses know? How myopic you are!well, I do not blame you, I only blame the environment that you grew up in which has stuffed your head with fallacious thoughts and blocked your eyes to enlightenment. I only pray that you have the opportunity of travelling and observing how healthcare runs in developed countries so that you can understand that every healthcare profession is significant and each has a vital role to play in patients' care.No healthcare professional is taught to be a pushover or just take orders but they are armed with immense skills that enable them to work collectively and collaboratively with others to manage patients' health.. Actually, I wouldn't expect the latter to make meaning to you, but well..get some education! 13 Likes |

Education / Re: Why You Shouldn’t Go Into Medical School by Tinkybabe(f): 1:56pm On Jul 08, 2014 |
It's a pity many couldn't articulate the Op's write up and rather than ask for elucidation, they resort to cheap insults and baseless conclusions. Well, I took my time to read the post and this is what I can infer from it. Even though the original poster didn't use the best topic , he was able to drive home some points . 1] Your reason for choosing to study medicine should go beyond "I just love caring for people". If it's the case, there are other professions that require you to exhibit your caring attitude in which case he highlighted teaching as an example. 2] You are good in science doesn't mean you'd excel as a medical doctor/dentist.A deeply rooted passion for the profession is the main priority and all these other things would follow.. 3] Money: This is the last reason anyone should study medicine especially in a country like Nigeria..The level of hard work and stress that you put into the profession is not exactly evident in the pay, at least for the first few years of your career..So if money is your driving force..Think again- medicine may not be for you! Not disregarding the importance of the points above, The collective points can reinforce one's passion for the profession with emphasis on the first two and make one give it their all against all odds.. But making a big mistake would be using either of these reasons as a focal point to study medicine. In summary, medicine is no piece of cake..Be sure it's really what you want before plungering yourself. 3 Likes |

50calibre: Nigeria is a fo*lish country, the politicians occupy themselves with thoughts of how to fleece the ordinary man of his hard earned money. You just talk through your arse sometimes..days of TV licensing numbered in the UK indeed..TV licence is not limited to owning or watching a television set .. As long as you're steaming a live broadcast on any device including mobile phones, tablets and computers, you have to pay for a TV licence and God help you if you're discovered not to have been paying it. If Nigerians want development, the masses would have to bear the brunt for a while.. No doubt our govt officials are exploiters but all things being equal bear in mind that no pain no gain..The most important thing is getting the worth of what's being paid for. 1 Like |
Health / Re: Furore Over Doctor Of Pharmacy Degree In Nigerian Universities. by Tinkybabe(f): 1:10pm On Jun 29, 2014 |
silica: The truth is over 90% of those in the Pharmacy profession are those who initially wanted to study medicine but couldn't make it. Ever since, they have been looking for backdoor ways to be caled doctors. Which is why they came up with thos new trick.check the problem at the hospitals, it's either pharmacists want to be paid the same salary as doctors or they want to be Chief Medical Directors. Hospitals are for Doctors and Nurses. Pharmacist merely offer auxiliary functions. If they can't work in d hospital as an appendage they should go and establish a robust pharmacy industry and supretend over its affairs rather than instigating other workers at the hospitals to cause trouble in our health sector. What a stupid post! So the struggle for improvement and growth is all for competition and supremacy in your illiterate head..You're such a dullard! |
