Kastonkastroll:I guess we would get the answer in Heaven ![]() The entitlement mentality is absurd. |
Nice one OP. I find it fascinating when a truck carrying a semi trailer is making clean turns on the road (U-turns, roundabouts, branch offs etc). I see it as an engineering feat. |
Mindlog:I understand their perspective sha. |
Klass99:1. Everyone unconsciously expects you to be at work 24 * 7. And the people actually working onsite think you are 'enjoying' because you are not going to work. On the flip side, you can watch KOB from 2pm - 4pm and start working by 6pm. And the amount of meetings to get things done; yikes! And the work is legit more; I don't understand the logic, but it is more than when you work onsite. These days, going to the office is like my off days ![]() 2. Thanks but again, na everyone go chop breakfast so while our customers don't disrespect us; they want things yesterday and we turn back the hands of time to give them what they want yesterday. That leaves people very burnt out because everything is urgent else someone would die so there is serious juggling of resources. 3. I have never believed it myself. It sounds like all these new age stupidity packaged as wisdom. |
Oluromantic:Can you give practical examples? |
Very romantic God bless their home. |
@OP: I don't understand the point: That women just leave their husbands immediately after they have kids? Shouldn't that be treated as Postpartum Depression for starters? If you say some years after, then I would say Maybe they just wanted kids from one man and the legitimacy of marriage. |
donbachi:This popular narrative is odd to me. Of what use is a husband/wife who can't make their spouse happy? ![]() Yes, a person would have other source of 'happiness' but a spouse supplies the bulk of it. Your job is on point, your kids are all stars, your friends are ride or die and your husband/wife is very useless and you think you would be 'happy'? Especially when you are not planning to leave them? |
Dozis:While there are some specific traits to a specific gender (good & bad) most traits at work are more of the person's beliefs and aspirations than tribe or sex. @your OP: I am most likely scenario two I would ask for the one of N1,600 sha ![]() Apologies to you and all the other very few pharmacists. I say very few because I don't use drugs ![]() |

@OP: I think what I like/love might be a safer bet: I love negotiating with customers and I have the confidence that I would almost always come out with a win-win situation. And because I manage a set of customers, negotiation is not a one time thing. I love to turn raw data into complex analysis of trends and give recommendations on the way forward. I love it even though it can be stressful and tedious. I love when I do inductions, trainings and refresher courses. I love when a customer has a complex issue or strigent delivery/project timeline and I deliver and ensure they are very satisfied. I love participating/driving extracurricular company activities. I like that work from home now (even though it is a scam ).I love when I am part of the project team to formulate new processes or review existing ones. I love that I have been lucky to have good immediate and a level higher bosses. And interestingly, all sans one has been female. How can I forget? I LOVE that my job and work environment allows me to be assertive to customers (which is very key in negotiations) when required. That's actually one of the things our CEO promotes. Under no circumstance does a customer insult an employee without addressing it. When I think of more, I might be back ![]() |
Oluromantic:@bold: But you are describing the average worker in the Nigerian workplace. And I use 'Nigerian' because that is the only workplace I know. It is your prejudice and negative bias towards women that is at play here. Sure, each gender have negative traits mostly associated with them but to think gossiping, ass licking(receiving and giving) and been emotional is a woman's thing shows you are not been objective. @emotions: it is a constantly propagated myth that women are 'emotional' and men 'logical'. Well, almost every human (male & female) are very emotional and do things because of emotions: anger, ego, insecurities, over excitement, happiness, feeling good etc. I mostly relate with male customers at work (about 97%) and I can get them to agree to almost anything because I am a good negotiator. And I negotiate using people's emotions (OP, those are one of the things I like about my job anyways). It is a well known fact that anyone whom you cater to his/her ego (emotions of pride, feeling better than others or on top), you will get them to do anything for you. Tell me the gender again that you are told to 'massage' their ego to get what you want? Yet, I will not say men are the 'emotional' gender because men & women display emotions in different ways. There are very few people who think logically and even them use emotions to deliver the package at times. |
Ishilove: ![]() @OP: Why do homosexuals want children though? |
Advertising gone wrong. ![]() |
hahn:If your assertion is true, then MJ was not a 'simp'; He ate his cake and had it (although the reverse is said to be the correct one, this makes more sense to me ).He had legitimate kids without overcoming his fear of women. That's a win-win situation. A very good negotiator if you ask me. |
Very classless and tasteless. |
TheUndercover:As in. Wetin concern agbero with overload? Why would your ex's friend even come and meet you for accommodation? |
ogbiwa:Owo aiye Do people change or manifest? |
I thought a number of peeps said Pere has bad attitude? He was still able to win three people? Obviously his 'lack of good behavior' is just social media noise ![]() |
Oluseunade98:1. You have your car, your wife doesn't have hers..... She has her pot, you don't have yours.... You have your kettle, she doesn't have hers. Are you getting the scenario I am painting here? If you both are one in marriage, it should be your family has a car and it is maximized in its use. Who takes the kids to school? Who picks them up? How different are your routes that you cannot start your journey together. How near is her colleague's house to yours that he can pick her & drop her everyday? 2 & 4. This is a no no. The man has made a proposition and she said no. That should severe all extra ties she has with him. Resuming the ride is a covert message that she is interested in his proposition. Please she needs to stop following Mr. Colleague Animashaun as a message that she is not interested in his proposition and out of respect for you. It doesn't matter if he is carrying twenty people or only your wife. 3. Perhaps she is trying to pass a message here; what is your schedule like? Sit down with her and allocate resources (car, time, money, energy) etc in a way that nobody is burnt out. Enough of 'my car', 'your house', 'my pillow'. Goodluck. |
grafixdon:@bold: Na this same Nigeria we dey so? Colleagues don't follow each other home in your world? ![]() |
In the spirit of making foolish comparison with celebrities; You NL men can see Ronaldo at 36 looking as fit as a fiddle. Not you guys that have beer bellies and sagging skin at 36. And he has a looooooot of money so hustling is not an excuse ![]() @OP: Good one, he is really keeping his revenue stream very fit. ![]() |
Happy birthday Mercy JO Long life & prosperity. |
I think Paul needs a lot of help; he might be becoming bipolar. He has managed to drag Peter into this mess and insinuate that Anita and not Lola (his favorite Yoruba witch) is the cause of his family's problems. |
paulgabrielz:You messed up and instead of you to right the wrongs, you are talking of suicidal thoughts. If you kill your self, does it resolve the issue on ground? Like someone said, we need to start emphasizing on mental intelligence. ![]() |
Munzy14: |
descarado:Hahahahahaha at 'then she can cook, he's in heaven. I don't know why a number of Nigerians think these basics are all there is to marriage ![]() |
MufasaLion:@bold: He who the gods want to destroy, they first make mad. |
oyinatinuke:Very beautiful profile picture It is really finished! The honesty is refreshing sha! I guess the poor man ran out of excuses and figured the truth would set him free. |
clothingonline:Someone sprayed about N60k, you are asking what she does for a living ![]() |
Made619:If my husband is in the habit of forgetting birthdays, I wouldn't take it to heart so much if he forgot mine. |
What's the difference between boyfriend and husband in this case? Except you mean a bedmate or friends with benefits. @OP: Check if they forgot theirs; it is not reasonable to have issues with someone who forgot his/her own birthday because they forgot yours. If birthdays are so important to you, sing it to them before the day or make a worthy mention of it afterwards. As the partner who sees nothing special in birthdays, learn to celebrate your partner on their day if they like it loud. That's where love, compromise & teachability comes to play for both parties. |
