a compound sentence albeit compound, is still a sentence..

payless: I was thinking the same thing all through the posts. One sentence and people posting compound sentenses.

F9

I like bread and beans...thats two sentences huh prof,

safarigirl: F9.

If you insert the words 'and', 'but' 'unless' and 'if', that makes two sentences. I believe the topic is 'In One Sentence'

thank you,
k, will do

1. Chose the discipline cos it pretty much embodies my interests; 'm fascinated by technology, i love tasks involving design and analysis, i like to think and I'm good wt my hands
2. Sure, the reasons are very much valid
3. Why CWI?...in all honesty its mostly d Money, I'm told welding inspection is financially rewarding if u cn find ur way in
4. My interests are as listed above. I'm driven by a thirst for success, a strong desire to excel in whatever venture, and I really like to see the reasonable Impact I make. m sort of a perfectionist so I cn be very resilient whn i want certain results.

Hope ville: There are some important questions you need to ask yourself:

1. Why did I study Mech. Eng in the first place?
2. Are those reasons still valid today?
3. Why do I want to become a CWI?
4. What is my interest and drive?

If you can answer the above two questions truthfully to yourself, you may as well be on your path to career excellence in no time.
Maybe I should wait for your answers before I say further...
All I can tell you at this point is "BEING IN A FIX CAN BE THE STARTING POINT OF AMAZING EXCELLENCE... IT CAN ALSO BE THE STARTING POINT OF DISGUSTING RUIN"

I'm at a point in my life where I need to make a very critical decision, I'm a young Mechanical engineering graduate with very limited funds and time, been in the job market for a while hasnt been too swell, so I need to step my game up a notch but I'm currently in a fix; Which of the above do u fink holds the best prospects for a young Mech Engr with little or no experience trying to startup a career. I rily need to make an informed choice

AWS CWI certification I'm told is quite valuable with the right contacts; some say an MSc would be a better choice; I'm computer savvy and i enjoy tasks involving research and design so I'm also looking at learning one or two engineering softwares (PDMS,HYSYS etc I dnt evn knw wch one yet)...So I'm in a bit of a quagmire now. If i could afford it I woulda done a combination of some but I cnt right now, I need to start with one,so which ever I decide to do now must give me a good start. Please I need your informed opinions. Bless

J12: Land cruiser, Highlander, Hummer, Pathfinder, Mercedes ML and GL, Lexus Rx, Ford Expedition etc

most of the abovementioned are models, not brands...for eg Toyota is a brand, while forerunner, Landcruiser,highlander, sequia etc are its SUV Models)
and Just like Toyota, Mercedes or Ford, Jeep is a registered brand name, popular for making military style Utility Vehicles back in the days and has quite a number of models ...Jeep compass, Jeep grand cherokee, Jeep patriot, Jeep wrangler, Jeep wrangler unlimited etc the list goes on

The Jeep brand

The brand has gone through many owners, starting with Willys, which produced the first Civilian Jeep (CJ) in 1945 and who were the first granted the trademark in 1950. Willys was sold to Kaiser Motors in 1953, which became Kaiser-Jeep in 1963. American Motors Corporation (AMC) purchased Kaiser's money-losing Jeep operations in 1970. The utility vehicles complemented AMC's passenger car business by sharing components, achieving volume efficiencies, as well as capitalizing on Jeep's international and government markets.

The French automaker Renault began investing in AMC in 1979. However, by 1987, the automobile markets had changed and even Renault itself was experiencing financial troubles. At the same time, Chrysler Corporation wanted to capture the Jeep brand, as well as other assets of AMC. Chrysler bought out AMC in 1987, shortly after the Jeep CJ-7 was replaced with the AMC-designed Jeep Wrangler or YJ. Chrysler merged with Daimler-Benz in 1998 to form DaimlerChrysler. DaimlerChrysler eventually sold most of their interest in Chrysler to a private equity company in 2007. Chrysler and the Jeep division now operate under the name Chrysler Group LLC.

Jeeps have been built under licence by various manufacturers around the world including Mahindra in India, EBRO in Spain, and several in South America. Mitsubishi built more than 30 different Jeep models in Japan between 1953 and 1998. Most of them were based on the CJ-3B model of the original Willys-Kaiser design.[21]

Toledo, Ohio has been the headquarters of the Jeep marque since its inception, and the city has always been proud of this heritage. Although no longer produced in the same Toledo Complex as the World War II originals, two streets in the vicinity of the old plant are named Willys Parkway and Jeep Parkway.

American Motors set up the first automobile-manufacturing joint venture in the People's Republic of China on January 15, 1984.[22] The result was Beijing Jeep Corporation, Ltd., in partnership with Beijing Automobile Industry Corporation, to produce the Jeep Cherokee (XJ) in Beijing. Manufacture continued after Chrysler's buyout of AMC. This joint venture is now part of DaimlerChrysler and DaimlerChrysler China Invest Corporation. The original 1984 XJ model was updated and called the "Jeep 2500" toward the end of its production that ended after 2005.[23]

A division of Chrysler Group LLC, the most recent successor company to the Jeep brand, now holds trademark status on the name "Jeep" and the distinctive 7-slot front grille design. The original 9-slot grille associated with all World War II jeeps was designed by Ford for their GPW, and because it weighed less than the original "Slat Grille" of Willys (an arrangement of flat bars), was incorporated into the "standardized jeep" design.

LOL, this is hilarious cant stop laffin, @ OP did u jst say dey did it quite well? aside frm the frnt row lady in black and green who I assume to be their instructor only very few are in sync. them try sha

LOL, I tell u, mega city indeed..whr u hv to generate ur own power frm "I pass my neighbour", u hv to provide ur own water, u are ur own state police, whr communities have to contribute and build roads whn the hardship becomes intolerable, lagos does not evn come close to any real city in Africa...ordinary Ghana and benin republic hv better infrastructure. we be megacity for only population and volume of commercial activity. mtscheeew. Lagos is like a starving homeless man spending all his resources on appearance to the detriment of his health/ basic needs

texazzpete: You know, this is where the problem comes from...this mass, self-delusion that you're a 'great, mega-city'.

When you take a stroll through the streets of Ikotun, Ejigbo, Ajegunle et al, you'll see that largely, Lagos is one giant slum.

mega-city with less than 1000 doctors employed by the state to cater for nearly 17 million people. Mega city with an abysmal mass transit system! Mega-city with insane traffic jams that the Government cares nothing about solving...

Forget the Okada issue, anyone who goes beating his chest about Lagos being a 'mega-city' needs to be flogged with a very stout Koboko!

@ OP, ...check 1st post....trial or trier,

if by fresh graduate u mean "pre-service" grads ..
maximize your 12 months service period, its a great window for filling in the gaps...practice and improve ur test-taking skills (gmat, gre, shl etc )take advantage of the "relevant" subsidised trainings and certifications offered to corp members. I regreted not doing this

which kyn dumb posts be all dis ones sef, d dude says he's willing to wrk witout pay instead of jst killin time...u gather xperience, u get exposure,u develop urself, u meet ppl, u make contacts, the benefits are endless. that's better dan sitting on your ass* at home doing nuffin.
wish you the best bro.

Infact I think say na only me the thing dey rub the wrong way ooo. at first i thot...ok, giv a broda the benefit of d doubt myt jst be typos or distractions.then op dropped the ball.. " Am seek and tired with some of nairalanders and their reasoning? Do u want me to start posting pics or blaging about the pay or wht? Wht did i stand to gain from this thread for God sake" ...totally had me wondering. u'll need to be a lot more fluent and lucid to scale written or oral selection hurdles. just saying
either ways, let genuine and helpful contributions continue to be made plz. God bless our hustle .

Jarus: This English is just un-Shell!

Now, I'm convinced I'm right.

And FYI, I'm an O&G person too. I have enough friends in Shell across the world, from that Freeman to Shell New Orleans to Shell Norway.

the advert isnt genuine man, cnt u read dat

bakusha: Can hnd also apply 4d job? Cos @ poster, wrote Bsc shd apply

@ OP, I find quite a number of inconsistencies in your claims and evidence..
firstly u said on Nov 20th u "withdrew money form your account exactly 30k and sent it to the said acc numb",a few posts later u claim u borrowed 21k or so frm a frnd and d said frnd had u arrested for not paying back and a frnd bailed u with 25k for owing 21k, lol...what gives??
secondly,every GTB slip gets stamped electronically and d electronic stamp shows a time and date detail.in the scanned copy u uploaded what appears to be an electronic stamp to the top right of the account number column ( just above the last two digits 38) shows "2012 NOV 21" while you claim to have paid on the 20th,
heres a shot of deposit slip i paid in with today DEC 5th, notice the rubber and electronic stamps
Plus, how come of all d dozen or so details in ink ur name is the only fin dat just so happens to have wiped off,...hmm.

donziko: thank you @ dinggle,you spoke the truth.I can't lie over this matter.On that day,20th november,i withdrew money from my account exactly 30k and sent it to that account number you guys are seeing on the deposite slip ... I swear to God...please let somebody answer this question....the account number you guys saw on www.biz4naija.info/birthday and the one on my slip,are they the same thing?please look and compare very carefully....if they are not the same thing i take the blame and am ready to storm my bank 2morrow for rectification...and again....please and please Mr Chibuzor why didn't your account show from 20th of November 2012....see guys all i want at this junction is my money...please and please help me.at least just give me back half my money.its impossible for me to have sent that money to the wrong account number because i've once bought a product from Mr Chibuzor.the 2go naira kit.and he knows that for a fact he doesn't have any other account number,than that of Gtbank which i used to buy his 2go naira kit ebook.
