We were having a meeting with the Npower ppl when one of them although late Sat on the stack of chairs instead of removing just one.My senior colleague called his attention to it. You won't believe how this guy who we later discovered was just an "OND graduate" flared up and warned him/us to respect his person(computer Engineer). That not all of them are O level. SMH.

Fool that was referring to ppl with B. Eng. as the least qualification with that simply dressed petite man having a PhD and more.

Also some feel they are the only ones to be valued and you look down on others not appreciating their good deeds. You put them at work for you, stressing themselves for you yet others who do same or less than they do are praised for the things they do.

To me, one of such character is Unnecessary pride.

It only requires a proud person to believe that every other person is below him/her.

It only requires a proud person to imagine that he/she can insult and abuse everyone because he/she is higher than all.

For example, you can see a final year student of the University,

and you try to relate with him, but he would be insulting you, with the mind that he is higher than you academically.

He doesn't even stop to think that you could be a Masters student.

He just conclude in his mind that he is higher than everyone in the school, because he is in final year.

I remember when in camp, some corpers were insulting one of the officials, asking why someone like him have to address them on an issue which I have forgotten.

It turned out later that the man was a PhD holder.

This is the kind of pride that characterizes human interaction.

People don't want to know, they just assumed things out of pride.

I know some people may use pride to characterize their new promotion, job, and etc.

But must you characterize your next level with pride?


Although I know some people who became very humble due to promotion, good job, and etc.


Please share the character people exhibit that shocks you.

I’m still shocked at how parents tries to live their lives through their children. undecided

Telling your children the type of friends to keep, How to spend money, who to help with money , who’s evil and who’s not evil.

Even choosing a career undecided

That thing annoy me as fuuckk.

The same parent would not consult you before making important life decisions.

Some widows/widowers/divorcees would remarry without taking guidance from their children but they would be the one to hand pick spouses for their wards.




When people give advice you didn't ask for.

You nailed it .
Give them money to help you get a property and watch how they’ll bring something almost obsolete and they’ll say it’s very durable.

Started giving up on humanity when Nigerian Doctors threatened to go on strike if there's an increase in renumeration for other members of the health sector after they (the doctors that is) got their own increase. Shocked me then, but these days very few things can have such effect. I now understand humans have an inherent tendency to be evil and sadistic regardless of race, ethnicity, socioeconomic and educational status.

Saying: "I forgive myself, I forgive everyone who has offended me, and I FORGIVE EVERYONE I HAVE OFFENDED."
The last part is such a stu.pid thing to say. Pride will not allow people ask for forgiveness. I hate it with passion.

If you also partake in these acts, why then is it a shock to you that someone else does it.?
