Your location? What version do u want? 32-bit? 64-bit?

Hello everyone,
I'm looking to develop a Desktop application to manage the details of an employee system. I have a fair idea of what the system interface should look like but I'm interested in suggestion from whichever developer I choose. Time frame is 2weeks. Front end could be Java or C#(or any other language). Back-end preferably will be MYSQL or any other open source Database Server.

Please contact me via airsaylongcon@gmail.com so we can get things rolling.

ONNYX:
Thats okay bro. But I really do not need validation on a faceless/anonymous platform.
I have no need to lie to you or anyone else.

If you could as much as make a little effort in the direction of a proper fact, you could be rewarded with the veracity or falsehood of my statement.

Leave that guy o... Don't argue with him. He is way more informed about the industry than you or me

Everyone is talking about scenes from the movie. How come no one is talking of the soundtrack. The song that made me know that u can cry listening to a song. Hit back to back

dazzlingd:
So someone will not serve until after 15 years of graduation?

Very possible!

femi4:
That's why he's ineligible

Where's ur irrefutable proof that he graduated before 30? He who alleges must provide proof

JesslordKay:
Don't complain cuz at 46 you shouldn't be serving.

Who says a 46 year old can't serve?

abdulsemiu02:
the age limit is still 30, exemption letter was Adeosun's case.

There is no Age limit! If u graduate before 30, u can serve at any age u choose to. Because Adeosun graduated before 30, she needed to serve and wasn't exempt by age.

femi4:
he's beyond 30

I don't understand. If he's beyond 30 does that make him ineligible to serve? Only people who graduated after their 30th birthday are ineligible to serve. If u graduate before 30, you must serve. Whether u decide to serve immediately u graduate or when u are 45, u will still serve. Nothing like exemption for these category of people

They regularly recruit from the local pool of excellent grads. Perhaps only for very highly specialised roles do they have to headhunt as stated. But most of the staff are Nigeria trained Nigerians. U just have to be supremely good

@Hedonini I expected a response from you regarding our "conversation" about the international standard of Nigeria LNG pay structure.

As for Gamesmart, keep insulting. Some will believe, some won't, So what?

ashjay001:
Don't mind dem joor. Look at d last pics n u see he's older than 14! But, not more than 25 sha.


D corper wey don pass 30, n him still dey serve nko


But, a Nigerian policeman that can't converse in english, is that one a policeman

Who pass 30 nor dey serve?

abdulsemiu02:
Nobody is talking about the corper himself, He looks very much older than 30 too

What has 30 years old got to do with national service. Anyone irrespective of age can serve. Or aren't you conversant with the Kemi Adeosun case?

altereg0:
If you're going to throw stones, make sure you're without a sin. To be fair, the police dude is just a boy, but if the authorities should probe the nysc guy, he'd be cast out of the system also. I wonder why none of his facebook friends didn't point out his grandpa-ish looks.

And who says a grandpa cannot serve?

dazzlingd:
Nysc has an age limit. Don't you know?

Nope. U can serve at any age as long as u graduate BEFORE your 30th birthday

techgeek12:
200-300k

And you arrived at this figure after considering what?

harrisonford001:
Let the Corp member prove he's not above 30! He should be investigated by the authority! To me that guy is close to 40! Illiterate graduate

Are 30 year olds not allowed to serve? As far as I know u can serve at whatever age as long as u graduate before your 30th birthday.

dazzlingd:
Well you both got it wrong, he looks 13 while you look 45 and yet you are serving. Well this is Nigeria, age falsification is allowed.

What's wrong with a 45year old doing youth service?

Mario1989:
THE CORPER SEF LOOK OVERAGE FOR NYSC...

he look like he's in his late 30's...
But wetin concern me sef...

Is National Service only for people under 30?

stagger:
Same INEC, but different players. Or is the Barcelona FC that featured Michael Laudrup and Hristo Stochkov the same as FC Barcelona of today?

You and the other paid agents of APC should start minding their utterances from now on. NO TO RIGGING!

Bros you na "old monkey" o.... Indomie generation supporters nor go know these players tokless of say dem play for Barca

Favor99:

quinSonia:

can somebody enter a computer store and ask them to do it

Sure! But expect to be overcharged because they will be able to detect your lack of knowledge and most likely inflate their price l

Hedonini:
I'm not going to dispute your claims even though I have serious reservations, but I'm only going to concentrate on the pay issue as highlighted, which is really the crux of the matter.

How can you claim that NLNG's pay is "at par" with international industry standard - which should it even be up to international standard in the first place? Ok, as far as gas companies go, none is bigger than Russia's Gazprom, and my cursory checks online show that the average JUNIOR MANAGER salaries PER ANNUM is $61k, and that's even for its UK operations, in Russia, it is $31k.

https://www.emolument.com/salary-reports/companies/gazprom/11553

But you earlier suggested that 'ordinary' entry level staff at NLNG earn about N1.6m a month, which is roughly $54k per annum! To put it in context, compare NLNG's annual revenues with Gazprom's annual revenues.

I'm adamant that something doesn't add up here, and unless you can show me proof of how NLNG salaries across board are commensurate with similar companies in same industry abroad, then I believe that these kinds of ridiculous and disproportionate salaries can only stem from a corrupt reward and compensation regime.

OK, let me first of all clarify that I am NOT holding brief for the company. I only want to correct certain generally held misconceptions (which I too used to believe until I became more knowledgeable about the industry)

While Gazprom is the behomoth in the Natural Gas business, there is a sub category of companies that manufacture Liquified Natural Gas. In this sub-category, the undisputed champion is Qatar Gas although they are facing pressure from Australia. Within African market producers include Algeria, Egypt, Equatorial Guinea, Angola and of course Nigeria. Liquefaction of NG is a more involved process and salaries in this sub category are higher than the general gas industry average.

Like you, I've done a cursory salary check in the LNG business. Please check out the links below to see salaries ranges

https://www.paysa.com/salaries/qatargas
(salaries range from USD93k-162k with average of 118k)

https://www.paysa.com/salaries/nigeria-lng-limited
(USD100K-169k with average of 124k) differs from Qatar by only 7k which I believe is attributable to the very remote nature of Bonny.

https://www.payscale.com/research/US/Employer=Atlantic_Lng/Salary
Atlantic LNG is located in Trinidad and Tobago. Average salary here is 122k which isn't far of from what Qatar Gas and NLNG offers

https://www.paysa.com/salaries/angola-lng
(74k-134k) small one train plant

https://www.comparably.com/companies/equatorial-guinea-lng-holdings/salaries
Average salary is 145k! Critical to note that the Marketing Associate which is one step above grad trainee is paid 60k annually.

The range of salaries above I believe does not cover top C-level executives.

Like I said before, I believe NLNG's pay is at par with global standards in the LNG business

Hedonini:
Now that I know it's NLNG, I am tempted to believe. These organisations are extremely corrupt, and unbelievably corrupt corporate governance practices. They can allocate such huge salaries to themselves that are at variance with international industry best practices. It's corruption at play here, and it really sucks.

You made some very cerebral points in a number of your posts on this thread. However I'd like to clear certain of your misconceptions. I encourage you to view this with an open and unbiased mind.

First of all corruption and NLNG cannot be used in the same line. I'm not saying certain elements within that system aren't corrupt but they are a very miniscule minority. The first and most important value for the business is integrity and they DON'T joke with it. Sometime back during GEJ era their export Jetty was shut down. Why? Because Tompolo was demanding a bribe from the business under the guise of maritime whatever. With a daily target of export shipments that had to be met the company shutdown its operations rather than pay the bribe. That's a multi-million dollar business that could have easily given Tompolo the chicken change he was demanding. This is the same company that doesn't hesitate to terminate employment if there is as much as a proven age or qualification discrepancy in employee records.

In the business, one of the most feared departments is its corporate governance department. These guys do not hesitate to apply strict rules regarding their corporate governance.

To address your allegation that the recent graduates hired were untalented and highly connected people, I completely disagree with this. I know someone who has zero connections in his LG let alone to be regarded as highly connected who scaled all their rigorous screening to get an offer. When asked how he got in he attributes his success to God's favour and adequate preparation. And he says all his colleagues in one way or another had similar experiences.This person I know was on a 50k job in Ibadan. I don't know how a you can describe such persons as connected. Like someone said, If you are good, you are good.

Regarding the pay, I'm certain they aren't paying beyond international industry standard. You need to compare their pay with other Gas companies and you'd find out that its at par with gas industry standard.

The company is NOT a government company as people often wrongly assume. Yes NNPC owns shares there but they DO NOT own the company outright

Some people's minds are soooooooo small they cannot comprehend certain realities of life. I guess they are waiting for empirical evidence for them to phatom facts

To those who believe, no proof is necessary. To those who don't, no proof is acceptable. If you know, you know
