Jobs/VacanciesRe: Remorse After Leaving My Job by Advision: 1:32pm On Jul 25, 2022
Zanzibar1:
I am a teacher. I work in a school that pays 18k.

It's rough out here but nobody go dash me that 18k
bro, I will advise strongly you get something else to do. Not just because that pay is really bad but more importantly, that kind of job will not allow you the opportunity (time) and equip you with the skill to move to the next level.

You are better of as a commission-based marketer...you get to meet people and you can think big. That job will damage your vision and deprive you of time to pursue them

My mates from school that did it are barely talking 6 digits while most of us are already talikng 7 digits a month

I first packed the rice, dry fish and fresh pepper into the pot and left it until it was almost done.

Then I added the tomatos, onions and panla fish that I stir-fried earlier to the rice and allowed the rice to dry properly.

The moment she started off her campaign unnecessarily badmouthing her country of origin, I knew she'd probably be one of the immigrants that resent fellow immigrants after rising to position of power. We know that Nigeria is in a mess and seems irredeemable when it comes to corruption, but c'mon, did she have to worsen the situation for an average Nigerian trying to survive in a foreign land, knowing that her statement could only increase the already bad profiling of Nigerian immigrants out there? Anyway, she's out of the race now.
When I read the news yesterday, I was mouth agape. It the season for politicking, so the messgae isn't strange per se as someone was always going to tow a nationalistic line. Quite surprised though that it was an immigrant who only arrived the UK herself at 16
TravelRe: On The Subject Of Nigerians Abroad Discouraging Others Coming Over by Advision(op): 6:07pm On Jul 19, 2022
There has been this talk lately on nairaland lately of people abroad discouraging others from immigrating for better opportunities...

Kemi Badenoch gives an interesting confirmation of these though. A lady left Nigeria at 16, and had a successful career in the UK which even enabled her contest for the highest office in the country as one of the top candidates.

Of all the candidates (both of british ancestry & immigrants), only the candidate of Nigerian-ancestry is laying the blame of pressure on infrastructure on immigrants......

TravelOn The Subject Of Nigerians Abroad Discouraging Others Coming Over by Advision(op): 5:58pm On Jul 19, 2022
FINALLY, the eerie silence has been broken by Kemi Badenoch, on an issue of real and continuing concern to the public and, especially, to members of the Conservative Party. Her fellow candidates should now be challenged to make reductions in net migration.

Bar a few references to the asylum problem and to the proposal to engage with Rwanda, there has not been until now any serious attempt to tackle net migration which is a far more important issue – indeed, it is about five times the asylum inflow into the UK.

Kemi Badenoch touched on the issue - when she said in the Conservative Home husting[b]s that immigration numbers must also be tackled if the housing problem is ever to be solved.[/b] She has now gone further in a Daily Telegraph article. All credit to her.

It was very encouraging to hear this also from one of the aspiring Prime Ministers:

“…we need to consider the demand side of housing, not just the supply side. People – rightly – recognise that building more homes while doing nothing to bring immigration down is like running up the down escalator.”

And this:

“….controlling immigration is important to managing the pressures it puts on housing and public services. Building confidence in the Government’s ability to control immigration is an important foundation for ensuring a cohesive society. “

These are most remarkable words from someone with a real chance of becoming leader of the Conservative Party and our next Prime Minister and show the guts that have been conspicuously absent from the race to date.

She and I are both immigrants to the UK. Perhaps this is why we recognise the serious risks to the future of our country by uncontrolled, runaway immigration. Yes to immigration but an emphatic no to the uncontrolled, and growing, mass immigration that we still have.

Of course, other major issues have been centre stage in the past year or two – Covid, Ukraine and the cost of living have dominated the headlines but the public still name immigration as one of the top issues. According to a YouGov poll, 54% want immigration reduced. That is thirty million adults, including 77% of Conservative voters.

The importance of uncontrolled and rising immigration is beyond dispute. The recent census has confirmed that the UK population has increased by eight million over the past twenty years. Seven million of that increase is due to immigrants and their children. Yet England, the main UK destination for immigrants, is already nearly twice as crowded as Germany and three and a half times as crowded as France.

The pressure is being felt on all our public services and especially on housing where we will have to build a new home every six minutes, night and day, to house new migrants. That is what Kemi Badenoch alluded to when she pointed to the need to address high immigration if we were to solve the housing conundrum.

It is not surprising that housing is a real issue, not just in the south, but also in the Red Wall Constituencies. MPs will know that, in many parts of England, there are strong feelings on this but people are still cautious about raising aspects of immigration in the public debate.

My partner and i have been traditionally married for 10 years without proper documentation or marriage license. We have 3 children together but apart from their birth certificates and our bank statement as proof of our relationship, there is nothing else.

He has been offered a full sponsored tier 2 visa to the U.K and we have been asked to submit 6 documents each as proof of residence and all I have to proof my residence with him in the same house is only my driver's license. I am a stay at home mom. what do we do?

thank you
Your children's birth certificate should be your strongest proof in the absence of a marriage cert (assuming its the type that shows both mother & fathers name).

I would not advice you present a newly issued wedding cert, that could raise suspicion. Its better to open up that you are not legally married but are established live-in partners with children and other docs as proof

She was Murdered on the 8th of February 1998 in her Bourdillion Road Ikoyi, Lagos Residence By her Domestic Staff.

tensazangetsu20:
It's better to be unemployed than to teach. Schools in my area in Lagos pay teachers 15k. What's that gonna do. You will still die of hunger I rather die in a simpler way than being a beast of burden
Going to teach for a private school after service is a very bad decision bro;

1. It takes a lot of your time and is an occupation with a high emphasis on "presenteeism" i.e you being available and seen @ school. You would not have time to attend interviews or do some other sharp programmes that will help you get your dream job.

2. It doesnt give you the right connection/network - you interact with students and fellow teachers who by and large just struggle to get by.

Most of my colleagues who went from NYSC to teach almost 6-7 years ago, are still teaching bros. Others that went into the market unemployed to hussle for their dream job now probably make as much as X10 or even X20 what they earn as teachers (I exaggerate not. Only a few of them earn more than 50-60k)

@MSjackson, honestly I think this is a positive thing. Low-budget teaching is a scam that would have kept you living a life of poverty. You should be thankful to God and take your time and look for other sharp hussles where you can more easily get opportunities for growth. The path may initially be rough but with the right mindset, determination n grace from above, you would triumph.

Its better you take a sales job (which are also quite common). It gives you time to meet people of calibre and time to attend interviews. Yes, "target" dey fear people but its for a while, you can then move to better opportunities.

CrimeRe: Has Anyone Ever Tracked Their Stolen Phone Using The Nigerian Police? by Advision: 10:46pm On Jun 18, 2022
kamtrix:
Happy Sunday evening everyone. Please, is there anyone who has been able to find their phone that was Stolen in Nigeria, by going to the police? How did you do it? What's the process and the cost? Every detail is appreciated. Thanks and God bless.
imei number preferably. they can confirm the location of the device, sim cards that have been used on the phone following the date it was reported missing. From the phone numbers you can then build a profile around the thieves.

members of the dss can readily track it for you....retrieving it though might be the tricky thing though because of cost of mobilising law enforcement agent to make the arrest. The cheaper alternative is calling an threatening the owners of the sim cards used in the phone. The risk is they may get scared and switch off the phone and their sim card permanently.

How many hours is your current role + how many hours would you spend, at your proposed new role......

Forget about the lack of stress .......... cheesy
The new role is full 40hours, but only 2 days in the office.

The current role is as low as 16hrs and as high as you like (provided shifts are available). I told them I was only going to do weekends and maybe some nights. I never opted to do day shift and I do not have that in mind.

... but really the job has almost no stress, I just routinely take records and I get my full night's sleep in a furnished room.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Advision:
Hello house, please advise on this.

I am on the verge of taking a second job (a professional job within my normal career path). However, prior to this, I took up a shift-based role (mainly weekends and some nights) about a month ago. The job isn't stressful, pays well and is flexible. I don't see a direct conflict of interest as they are in unrelated industries and unrelated roles.

I am tempted to maintain my current job alongside the new job because of the benefit of the increased combined pay and my current role being fairly hassle-friend and flexible.

Please advise on the best way to manage the situation or if I just have to resign from the current one

@TheGuyFromHR @justwise @all, pls I need your advise.

I don't know how the new employer would take information on having a second job and I would not want such information to prejudice their impression of my commitment to the job. I understand they can from the tax code from the HMRC deduce I am employed somewhere else

it's so annoying children of nowadays thinks because they got baby mamas up and down they got no respect for their elders, infact once they notice you haven't had a child yet no matter how old you are. they start looking at you like their age mates or even older than.

my kid bro who i single handledly passed down wears to back then has the audacity to talk to me anyhow just because he his a father of a 5year old boy and another one its on the way. well that's how he's been reason he toke a lot of beatings from me back in the days... the recent happenings happened this morning after so many years, I came home for a very close relative burial same with our eldest bro whose in his mid 30s. discussion we having one thing lent to another... this kid bro of mine flared up shouting at the top of his voice to my elder bro...mom telling him to shut up he's still talking...I immediately pounce on him in the presence of his wife and kid, I gave him the beating of his life, squeezed that his lip he was using to insult our eldest bro, not minding his wife watching.

yes I'm angry with him, the day his wife gave birth out of wedlock, he was jubilating that he the last born first us to give our parent's a grand child. I say see this one, if I wanted to have kids I would have, how many ladies has tried to trap pregnancy on me all through this year's. it's just man not yet ready yet, and been married don't Just freak me yet.

mom been gingering me to apologise to him, but I refused? why would I.

yes I was wrong for beating him in the presence of his pregnant wife and kid, I didn't mean to embarrass him...I felt bad myself after the whole thing.. but before he was a husband he was first my kid bro.

don't be a fool, you fought you brother and you openly boast about it. You read in the news how one brother killed or maimed another...that could easily have been you. What if your brother took a weapon at the height of the confrontation and lunged at you? very easily your mother could have lost 2 children (1 dead and the other condemned to prison)

Thank God it did not lead to that....if you and your brother do not get along, avoid him....he is old enough to decide what he is and how he should comport himself..children or no children

And appreciate your brother was the more matured party, because he allowed you get away with it. In some other homes, at least one person will land in the mortuary or emergency ward....and for your family's sake, hope he looks past that event.
