Ps after the movie whatever bothers you would still be there. It's only a temporary distraction.

Movies are purely hobby and for entertainment not an escape route.

They know you're hardworking and they want to see u put in a 110% of yourself to the job.

Since you've realised one of the challenges you'll face - staff. Tell them to give u a new team you can work with if they really want u to succeed.
That's the key. If you are in charge and those under you want you to fail get rid of them immediately.

^ one of my favorite.

I saw a fish called Wanda (1988)
aftermath of a bank robbery and everybody trying to screw each other.
really funny.
8/10

moneyball (2011)
surprisingly little baseball which is why I never saw it all these time.
underdog sport story with analytics good stuff.
I have no interest in watching it again.
7/10.
A fish called Wanda is a lovely movie. Saw it a long time ago and enjoyed it. 9/10.

Saw now you see me 2. I loved the magic. The story was a twist from start to finish. 7.5/10

Suicide squad 7/10.
TV/Movies › Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by armadeo(m): 10:40pm On Aug 19, 2016
Suicide squad was like a new meal I couldn't really tell if I liked It or not.

Ben Murray-Bruce
The Price of Rice and the Price of Life!
Recently, the price of a bag of rice was increased to
19,000 Naira. This is coming at a time when the national
minimum wage is 18,000 Naira.
This got me thinking. How does a man earning 18,000
Naira feed his family when a bag of rice costs more than
his monthly salary?
How does he clothe his children. How does he educate his
children?
We all know that the economy has been negatively
impacted by the fall in the price of oil, however, in a
country with little or no social security from the
government, the drastic fall in the value of the Naira and
the astronomic rise in the price of food stuff is resulting in
severe economic hardship for the Nigerian worker.
So, what is the solution? How do we ease the burden on
the millions of minimum wage workers in Nigeria?
The only solution lies in increasing spending on
infrastructure and other capital projects that will create
opportunities for Nigerians to start small and medium
scale enterprises.
Power, good roads, an efficient rail system, potable water
are some of the infrastructure that will enable Nigerians
convert their creativity into enterprise.
But how can we increase spending on infrastructure in an
era of reducing revenue?
The truth is that with our economy contracting and Nigeria
officially in recession, we can no longer afford to maintain
a huge and expensive government.
To find the money to develop our infrastructure, we must
scale down the cost of governance.
Do we need 36 ministers? Do we need 36 states? Do we
need 36 state assemblies? Do we need embassies and
high commissions in every other country?
Nigeria is spending too much money maintaining a big
government that is quite frankly a luxury in these lean
times.
The 2016 budget provides for just 1.75 Naira for capita
expenditure while 4.1 trillion is allocated to Recurrent
expenditure and debt servicing. Recurrent spending is 2
and a half times what we budget for capital projects.
This is not the fault of President Buhari or the APC. This is
a fault with the system.
Can we really afford to keep borrowing to pay the salaries
of politicians and civil servants when a bag of rice costs
19,000 Naira which is more than the minimum wage of
18,000?
Can we really afford to spend 60% of our budget on
recurrent expenditure with very little left for capital
expenditures when our population is exploding at a rate of
over 4% annually?
In this era of change, we have to accept that we either
change Nigeria or Nigeria will change into something that
we do not like!
We either direct the change in a positive direction or the
change will happen sporadically and direct us in a negative
direction.
Instead of embassies and high commissions in almost all
nations, we can have embassies and ambassadors with
concurrent accreditation in a sub region or in neighboring
nations.
Instead of 36 state assemblies, why don't we have 6
assemblies representing the 6 geo-political zones?
Instead of 36 ministers representing the 36 states, why
don't we have 12 ministers, 2 from each geo-political
zones?
These reforms, if implemented, will reduce the amount
spent on our politicians and our bureaucracy thereby
freeing up funds to be expended on capital projects which
will have a greater impact on the man earning 18,000
Naira to give him a fighting chance at survival.
If we do not change we only need to look at Venezuela, an
oil producing nation like Nigeria, that imports petrol, like
us, and now is in a state of crisis which may be our fate if
we refuse to learn from them.
My name is Ben Murray-Bruce and I just want to make
Commonsense!

It is not that there is no more faith in people. The problem is that Nigerians don't do things the right way. Why in God's name would anyone just agree to send money to someone you've never met before in your life just because of a sob story? If i willingly just decide to give someone money with no strings attached, fine, but if you are asking, then you have to prove to me what you say is your condition, is true. Nigerians believe too much in hand outs and that is wrong. The country is gradually turning into a nation of beggers.
dude you can for the sake of humanity help a sob story without verifying, i have had an experience where my pocket was picked and i remember how nobody helped me. i was young then, No ATM then, the idea of taking a cab didnt cross my mind so i trekked like it was for a president. my joints ached for days. so i tend to give benefit of doubt ( when i feel like giving and if i am convinced)


pippimp below is another example, there are people who are good enough for a first class but cannot afford to go to school. the poster wanted to help and people tried to take advantage so the genuine ones lost out an oppurtunity of a life time. The point is dishonesty in the country is so rife that the honest man in trouble would get no help.

its sad.

Instead of us to use her as a example to our generation of girls who na follow a man based on money, we insult her....jealous fools.

nurse alabere to gun condom..smiley


This reminds of my own experience.... That day, i was filled with the spirit and immediately whined one of my vicinity secondary girls that i use to teach CRS lessons (wont say her name because of The NCAN people sad )....

Immediately she came, she jumped on me and started romancing me but as a wise man like solomon , i shouted ..... No no no and no

... I must use a rain coat....

.she just smiled. As I was about to stand to pick the packet of Daberu condoms under my mattress ,she stated that she had a condom in her bags....

She gave me while she quickly went to the bathroom to freshen up my meal..

As i was looking at the condom happily., i just playfully remembered when i use to blow my elder brother condoms as ballon and use to suck out the supposed sugarless yoghurt in it back then ,not knowing the true use ..

So i playfully tried to blow the condom, the thing no gree blow...i blow it again,it didnt blow..

By the time i check, the girl don perforate the condom with holes...

Haahaa... Secondary school girl oo... She is already looking forward to be a baby mama sad..

I later sent her away angrily with sharp cutlass and went to pekams to do it with those i know would not perforate my condom for me.

That was how God saved me... I for don be Daddy junior now sad... For this era wey Pampers don cost ..
