Family / Re: Ever Gotten Employed As A Pregnant Woman? by afrobaby(f): 2:47pm On Oct 02, 2015
I don't really know how to advise you but I was already 1 month pregnant before I got my job.

Your case is different , maybe, because, you are already aware of your state and I must tell you, pregnancy with a new job isn't easy at all. I once told my HR after employment that I would have rejected the offer assuming I knew on earlier that I was pregnant.

Most companies just don't like that maternity leave and the fact that pregnant women can't really give their best.

Continue searching, I am sure, one will come hopefully before you start showing
Technology Market / Re: Are Microsoft Sever And Exchange Server Used In Nigeria by afrobaby(f): 6:30pm On Sep 22, 2015
yomickey:
Loads of companies use Microaoft Exchange Server in Nigeria.

I worked with projects involving Exchange Server, SharePoint Server, System Center Configuration Manager etc and they are quite big.

Banks, communications companies etc all use them.

What I have observed though is that it is most times a guy-know-guy way of getting jobs. If you have worked with someone in a company who has moved on to another, he most likely will be the one to reference you for a new post there without much advertisement. I have seen it happen very well.

Anything else you need to know, feel free.

Cheers,

Hi Yomickey, I peeped through your profile and can see you hardly post again but you still come to nairaland. Kindly let me know if you are still in the country. Really need some inputs from you.

hello mommas, pls i would like to advise you all on measures you take that adversely affect your babies health in the long run e.g using skineal or sudocreme mixed with whatever for daily creme is wrong. the makers of skineal/sudocreme know why they made it for rashes/skin infections, its meant to cure not prevent. another example is using paracetamol before immunization, why not wait to find out if your baby eventually runs temp then u administer pcm.......... pcm is a drug and we should mind how we give it. the drugs some of us use to prevent teething wahala eh meanwhile some babies don't even experience teething problems or would not have experienced. when i had my 1st doctor, i was told that teething powder is fine but some other drugs e.g piccan can cause stomach abi na intestine issues in future. i no dey spoil their mkt o. just my advise sha. i wish all our babies/kids good health always.



You are right o. As per the teething stuff, people should stop believeig all those lies, any sickenss , it will be termed teething. My son was recently sick and I was told, don't worry, it is teething, it will go. Ni bo (for where), I told hubby, we need to take him to the hospital. After test, It was discovered that he has malaria and infection. I am not saying teething doesn't cause discomfort to babies, but we should be more vigilant.

None of the jobs is about hacking. Don't be sidetracked by the term hackers here. Growth hackers aren't trying to steal secrets from competitors or government agencies. They're tasked with one goal: growth. They are more tech-focused than the digital/traditional marketer.



Lol, I understand your point, of course I know the growth hackers, white hat hackers, I don dey for IT game, no be today jare.

UX, Growth hackers, Big data analysts and Business analysts are amongst the most sought after in 2015. The pay is mind-blowing.
might not be so Nigeria at the moment but trust me it soon will.
The future is here.

Develop yourself

I hear you, but we can't all be hackers, etc. IT is broad, one can't take all.

voltron:
IT Dept. is a service department not a Business Unit.. IT spends all the money Business Units make and never brings money

I agree with you partially, but come to think of it, IT may not bring in money but they help you save money towards unforeseen disasters. With the rate at which technology is advancing, there is hardly any company that can do without a solid IT department, it is a key department in every company.

I think this only happens in companies that do not appreciate technology
Computers / Re: Windows 10 Problems And Solutions (official Microsoft Windows 10 links added) by afrobaby(f): 4:14pm On Sep 10, 2015
Windows 10 is really cool, though I still fumble with lots of things like when I want to shut down, still navigating my mouse to the right corner. But all in all, i think it is cool. The cast to device isn't working for me though, anyone tried it?

Career / Why Do Some Companies Pay IT Staff Lower Than Other Departments by afrobaby(f): 4:10pm On Sep 10, 2015
With this my little years of experience, I am forced to come to the conclusion that most companies tend to pay the IT staff lower than those in sales, marketing, accounts and other departments, except for major companies that actually appreciate technology. I work in a retail company and it is so funny that even a less experienced staff earns higher.

Most annoying is the fact that, as an IT personnel, one stumbles on some key information every now and then and when you realize that a fresh graduate employed into another department earns as much as you earn or even more, it just kills one morale.

Please, anyone experiencing such cause am really boiling, smiles.

TV/Movies / Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by afrobaby(f): 10:15am On Nov 21, 2014
Fourcade:


Homeland Season 4 so far has 8 or 9 epidodes.It's the best homeland season since season 1.The thrill is back! I wasn't delighted with Season 3 and it's finale too but i decided to continue 'cuz i feel it's better than most shows airing now. cool

The Newsroom has just 6 episodes this Season 3.By 14th December,we should be through with it so no need waiting till episode 5 grin


I don't understand, homeland is interesting without Brody? I think I will have to download the first 3 episodes to confirm that o, cause the last season was somehow boring towards the end.

Newsroom, just 6 episodes? What happened, no more stories? I think I will wait until the last episode and download at once, then find a good friday night or saturday night to watch all at once.

How do you see The 100? Am seeing some good reviews but don't know if to try it out?
TV/Movies / Re: What Series Are You Watching Now? Part 2 by afrobaby(f): 3:04pm On Nov 20, 2014
Scandal is badd, Papa Pope is a devil, he is indeed a hell candidate. Can't afford missing any episode
Revenge is becoming senseless, just watching for watching sake
State of Affairs is interesting or so I think, the first episode is nice, hope it will continue
POI is interesting and becoming tougher day by day
The blacklist, men, am short of words.
Castle : Just for fun, so many unanswered questions
Homeland: Can't just watch it again, don't know why, I just think it should have ended
The newsroom: Waiting until it is around episode 5 or so, can't be satisfied with 1 or 2 episodes jare
How to get away with Murder: Gosh, I love the plots and the secrets
Family / Re: Is It Ever Possible?? by afrobaby(f): 10:16am On Nov 20, 2014
It's a mind set thing. I don't think i can even have a maid until we build a mansion that may be hard for me to maintain alone, even at that, I can decide to bring in a niece, nephew or cousin whose parent are not as financially stable as we are.

When you see your maid as a maid, you can never love her as much as you love your daughter. But when you start seeing her as your child (the child you could have had), and she starts seeing you as a mother that could have given birth to her, then it makes it very easy. If you can't love your maid and treat them right, then don't get a maid, because the way you treat her will be passed to your children whenever you are not there. They were also born the same way you gave birth to your kids, not just fortunate as your baby.

tpia6:



A 2 or 3 year old can't help with a new baby, they're still babies themselves.

You may be wrong. My daughter is just over 2 years, and am expecting another baby in less than 6 months. My daughter can help with the baby in some ways, like bring baby's diapers, bring baby's socks etc, even I can tell her to sit with baby or play with baby. 1-3 years children are called toddlers, they are no longer babies (oyinbo no go kill me with different names self)

As for me, 2 beautiful, smart and God-given children is more than enough to make me a Happy mother forever. 2 is enough for me, economy no dey smile, school fee no dey joke, chocolates and also menu menu dey consume person money, lol
