Jobs/VacanciesRe: Dear New Hires, Stop Coming Into Organizations With Messiah Attitude. by bootstrap(m): 1:08pm On Mar 30, 2023
QuinModah:
I think new hire are different from new hire in respect to their levels of experiences.

For example, a new hire can be, new GOC, new Unit commander (Director).

In this context, are we saying they should not fix some loopholes after they have understood the process , system and people? Yes, they will, and that where the Messiah comes in.

Also, either you are good employee or bad employee, you will always have enemies.
You are Gen Z… right? 😏😏
PoliticsRe: Elections: Why Sitting Presidents Lose Aso Rock by bootstrap(m): 2:54pm On Mar 27, 2023
The irony of this, for those who don’t know. Most of the guys that live around there are the real problem with Nigeria as we know it. A lot of them (or their parents) have been involved in government for decades … they are the invisible thieving hands, hiding in plain sight.

But, Sure, the president only is the problem… not the over 1k staff that work in the presidency and lived there too… nonsense!!

My first task if I ever become president tho… which I would advise any new government to do…. CHANGE ALL THE STAFF OF THE PRESIDENCY …. Every single one of them should be posted away… redeploy them all… and contract any top notch recruiting firm to pick the best hands from amongst the entire public service.
RomanceRe: Am I Gradually Becoming A Misogynist? by bootstrap(m): 5:12pm On Feb 05, 2023
KlausMichaelson:
Honestly this has been bothering me for a while now. And I think that this is what is referred to as Misogyny
.
I hate the to hear or see the opinion of a female gender cos most times if not all the time, it doesn't make sense. And this realization could make me end up angry for the rest of that day. Whenever I apply logic to actually understand why they make such opinion, I find out that it's always out of emotion and not logic. They also always act before thinking (even when they think, their opinion still doesn't make sense). This is applied to all of them. None is excluded.

A typical example is the Nekede school girl who made a video saying it's the god of my pussy

I just see them as though they have no thinking faculty that is founded on logic. From the posts on social media, Whatsapp and everything. When you look at the motive and the reasoning behind it you will understand that the female gender has this shallow mindset. This is totally different from the male gender, exception to a very few. Majority of the male gender tend to have logical opinions about something.

Maybe I am too much of an observer, I really do not know. Or maybe because I am very sensitive. Sometimes I think to myself that if not that I was born by a woman, I don't see how useful they are, cos they are irritating when it comes to being logical. Try and engage them in a very intricate discussion, you will understand what I mean. The best they can do to appear intelligent is to be good at subjects in school which is always limited to the book they carry around in their school bags. And this is not intelligence.

Now my worry is that, it's affecting the way I act towards them. The worst punishment I can do to myself is to try withstand an opinion from them during arguments. That's the worst. This is giving me a second thought on whether to get married or not, as a matter of seriousness. Cos this is mentally draining to live with people like that for the rest of one's life.

It's really worrisome. Am I the only one?

Appologies if you are not ok with this. But it's just an observation I have come to learn so far so good about that gender.

Modified
One other thing I'd like to point out is that, it's not every male gender that your butts or your body (you shamelessly post on every social media page) will trigger some sort of unnecessary obsession with you. Until then, your weapon is just like a toy gun, absolutely useless. And you are probably useless if you have no logical thinking faculty.
Have you maybe considered changing you female (general) network? While I worry that you might be “disliking” them, I dnt think it’s totally out of place for us not to “feel” everyone. Male and female alike. You can be friends with person A, but don’t care so much about person B ( not going as far as disliking the person sha)

I will give an example (not necessarily relating to you please). I feel if one hangs around a LovePeddler house long enough, you are bound to start seeing every lady as a LovePeddler….. if you hang around yahoo boys/ritualist long enough…. You might start seeing every guy in that light.

As a “logical thinking” … you should knw when your network falls outside your station and needs changing, you either adjust, or you begin to feel resentment.

I stopped reading Joro on Instagram for a similar reason…. His posts didn’t really serve my mental purpose, same as a number of Twitter accounts (you can trust the algorithms to keep pushing similar posts)

So, my recommendations
1. Renew you mind by changing you network (online and offline). Create new social media accounts, if you must… and be deliberate with accounts you follow. Follow more high flying ladies (they are a lot of them) and avoid “ass shaking” accounts .
2. In you real life dealings…. Go to more premium locations, it improves your chances of meeting more premium people (or atleast, you kind of people)

If I’m to be honest… the description has always bothered me, especially when used by Nigerians.

What level of self-hate (or ignorance) will make someone refer to themselves as shit (seeing as they describe the country as a shit-hole).

A ‘shit’ out of the shit-hole doesn’t make it any less of a ‘shit” (aka the jakpa’d)

So… if only the guy can help me understand
PoliticsRe: Why We Used Buhari’s Teeth-Picking Picture For Illustration- Scottish University by bootstrap(m): 2:32pm On Apr 08, 2022
Cubalabloo:
Now the whole wide world knows that the capital of a shite-hole continent does not have a president.
I have always found it weird that Nigerian (we) use the term shit-hole to describe Nigeria….. maybe my thinking is off, but i feel it derogates us, and not the country.

A hole is just a hole, what makes it a shit-hole is the shit that is contained there in. I don’t see how referring to oneself as shit is a thing to say. The description doesn’t exclude any Nigerian (You inclusive) regardless of your location as a Nigerian.

I feel this is akin to calling your fathers house a pigsty and assume I’m not looking at you as a pig, but just ur other siblings and folks

Please help me understand your thinking in this regard, I’m genuinely interested in knowing.

PoliticsThe Naivety Of The #endsars Protest(era) by bootstrap(op): 7:51am On Oct 23, 2020
So... with the #endsars protest kinda over... I want to highlight some aspects where I feel, naivety played a huge role.

1. We do not hv leaders or representatives
2. No exit plan, we just stay on the streets indefinitely
3. Protests can be 100percent peaceful
4. The resolve of the ruling class and ability and willingness to use excess force, including shooting
5. Agberos and hoodlums will not obtain & rob the protesters
6. If you are carrying the Nigerian flag, the military will not shoot u
7. UN will intervene after 1 mnth of protest
8. Govt or someone needs to sponsor and pay hoodlums for them to come out to cause trouble
9. That the world really really cares
10. .
11. .

Add some of urs please.

Not always. There are many homes out there where the woman is the breadwinner and yet still respects the husband.
Why? You think it’s the pe**s that calls for the respect? It’s the breadwinner that gets the respect.

Husband is not a gender role, it’s responsibility role. OP, u forgot to add that the jobless man (wife), needs to be reading the role of the wife, as contained in the Bible.... He shld be submissive and the rest....
PoliticsRe: Nigerian Army Removes Major-General Adeniyi As Commander Operation Lafiya Dole by bootstrap(m): 4:23pm On Mar 31, 2020
let me help us all here, and spare us som anyhow comment

1. He was not complaining about lack of equipment
2. He was reporting that the intelligence they were given was wrong
3. He obviously was accused over radio of running away from battle
4. In the heat of the moment he made a video recording to prove that they were there... even showed the other General with him
5. Message was obviously leaked

6. As a result of the video, pointing at two things, poor intelligence and the general losing his cool (tho wrongly accused) those in charge needed to shake things up.
7. This alone also, is more than sufficient for the CinC to shake up the service chiefs

Finally... he was not just removed, there was a general shakeup, so let’s stop sensationalizing everything

Lastly... whoever leaked that video shld be jailed, it can be easily traced

I rest my case

EducationRe: IPPIS: ASUU Members Sneak To Register, Enrolment Hits 937,000 by bootstrap(m): 8:52am On Dec 05, 2019
kingi777:
Does IPPIS capture sponsorship of conference attendance? Some lecturers do attend at least 1 local conference as part of staff development annually.
In my opinion, IPPIS may save money for the FGN but would cause a lot of damages in Nigerian higher institutions. There would be heavy reliance on Abuja to get approval for everything which would take time, bribe, multiple travelling to Abuja which would've been resolved easily in various institutions. Can you imagine the Accountant General threatening VCs? So shall other IPPIS staff cajole lecturers too. The best is for FG to accept the model being proposed by ASUU which would localize the IPPIS in various institutions.
No one is saying conferences, visiting profs and whatnot shld not be captured. What the FG is saying is.... let’s hv all permanent personnel on IPPIS, all other expenditure will be captured under other budget heads. Conferences and visiting Profs shld not be paid from the university personnel. I really dnt see what the big deal is joh.

Y’all knw the headline is misleading ... right?

WHAT DOES “Maintaining status quo” mean?

The judge didn’t say “stay action” , he said maintain status quo, in other words

keep doing as u were doing. Or dnt change

Let me give an example, if I am driving and I am stopped, then I am told to maintain status quo, (go back to what I was doing) do I remain there or keep driving?

If I am told to stay action, I will stop, if I am told to maintain status quo, I will keep driving.

CareerRe: Dear Graduates ... Please Buy A Laptop!! by bootstrap(op): 8:37pm On Mar 13, 2019
greatnaija01:
well, you are quite right but you didnt DRIVE HOME the real issue.

GRADUATES SHOULD STOP WATCHING FILM, INSTAGRAMING AND OTHER SOCIAL STUFF THAT WASTES THEIR TIME.

They mostly need to WORK ON THEIR ICT SKILLS... because no matter what course you study, the SPECIFIC JOB for your course of study may not be readily available BUT there will always be employment for ICT personnel.

they can learn almost any CERTIFICATION for FREE and download their certificates then print it out... without any COST except for the DATA BUNDLE.... and using the right VPN... they can even BROWSE FOR FREE WITH ANY NETWORK.

But many graduates are mentally UNEMPLOYED while seeking BODY EMPLOYMENT.

NOT EVERYONE MUST BE EMPLOYED.... many need to sit down and think... and come up with solutions that will change the world and make them rich.

a graduate I know recently bought a digital camera and every saturday visits wedding receptions around her vicinity and makes 4k-7k weekly... yet she didnt graduate with a 2.1.

Another guy, just created an instagram page for designing business cards AND HE CAN'T EVEN DESIGN ANYTHING.. he uses android apps that give ready made designs and he makes about 50k monthly.

these are examples of people who refuse to be limited by the traditional way of thinking.
GRADUATES must psychologically graduate before things can change.
Thnk you... good sir for helping me drive home the point better. Was too tired to talk of all the advantages of having ICT skills can bring. Thnk you again
CareerDear Graduates ... Please Buy A Laptop!! by bootstrap(op): 8:21pm On Mar 13, 2019
Dear graduate, please Permit me to rant abit....

PLEASE BUY A LAPTOP. You cannot be using an iPhone and say you cannot afford a 50k (or even less for a used one) laptop.

I discovered frm most of those I sent the NNPC advert to said they were going to the cafe to get it done. I understand the economy is hard and all... but it is of utmost importance to hv a PC, actually, in ur final year of school atleast. You need to get comfortable using ur laptop over ur phone.


At the very least, be very conversant with the PC, this can usually come with owning and using one. Be very good with the MS office packages, ms word and excel atleast

Some wld say they can do anything on their smart phones... but I feel job applications are best on a laptop.

So... please,do ur very best to own one.

Thank you.

Guys, do I think this opinion is wrong? Let us hear ur views

Did Gov gandolar resign?

Did Buhari resign after the allegations against his family owning a bank?

Did Burutai resign? After his hotels were located in dubia?

Did osinbanjo resign?

How long did it take buhari to sack babachir?

How about tinibu's alpha beta?

How long did it take the former finance minister to resign after it was established she forged her certificate? Was she prosecutedhuh

How many barrels of oil do we export daily does Nigerians know? Is buhari not petroleum minister? How much do we make daily on crude and gas sales?

Yet zonb's come out here to shout " war against corruption " CJN is Corrupt, everybody in Nigeria is corrupt except Buhari, his family and APC members.

Thunder fire all of una! Corruption fighting kill all of una dia!
From ur rant, it is evident that you hv realized that every arm of govt wld protect its own, therefore it behoves the other arms to take action.... now, the executive has played its hand, im waiting for the legislature to “check and balance” them.

1. Except he plans to run as a dictator or bribe the entire national and state assembly members to do his bidding, how exactly does he plan to make the restructuring work? Ordinary constitution amended, the National Assembly finds it a Herculian task, talk less of doing an entire overhaul of the system these same people are benefiting from. This is akin to asking the National Assembly to reducing their pay. With different persons hving a different idea of how the nation shld be restructured... the debate will go on forever at the assemblies

As I see it... the only thing we can do as a nation is to work within the system we currently have and try to perfect it as much as we can. Or there is a war or some major tragedy, a dictator takes over and “orders” the restructuring.

So... no, his idea is just a pipe dream.
