Vure,

I am assuming that you knew he wanted to marry you that's why he trained you in the first place.

Remember that anyone who breaks an agreement will suffer it in the end.

You might want to pay the man back his 'money' but know that some things cannot be quantified. You can't measure his care, his sweat, his time etc.

Sit down and really view everything over and over again to see what you have issues with apart from the following:

Your age;
the age difference;
your exposure/his lack of;
his education etc.

While I will never support abuse of any form, some little flaws like the above listed can be worked on. If it's your age, it could be a plus for you. However, if he is abusive, then take a walk.

It is only an irresponsible mother/parent who would let another person esp. male who is undefined train her child esp. female

The man himself get im own for body... 27 to about 16?

Career › Re: The Tales And Woes Of A Typical Access Bank Teller by bukatyne(f):
Travelista: Sorry to hear about the deaths of your coworkers; terribly sad state of affairs.

Now, here's something you may not want to read but it's truth and may help to put a few things into perspective:

1. According to your post, IBplc was taken over by Access Bank. As an IBplc employee (core or support), a person would be lucky to still have their job. In takeovers/mergers, the company that was taken over almost always gets the short end of the stick; this means, unless stipulated in the documentation that allowed for the acquisition and/or merger in the first place, your jobs is not guaranteed. If any wants to be angry, their wrath should be directed at the former leaders of IBplc.

2. Access Bank does not have to offer room for growth to former IBplc workers. Access has employees they hired using their own hiring practices; they come first. Don't like it, find another job.

3. As for being terminated for the slightest infraction: remember that Access took over physical branches but they may not need all of the employees acquired from IBplc. Again, making a mistake may look like you shouldn't have been hired in the first place. I know the excuse is flimsy but, again, they don't have to keep on people they did not vet themselves.

4. I don't even know how to address you blaming Access for the death of employees. If the families of the deceased believe that death was caused by actions made/taken by Access, they can file a lawsuit. Other than that, no business is going to offer money without being asked/forced.

5. Again, Access did not have to keep IBplc employees on payroll. Asking workers to stay late is the norm especially after a major takeover. As there lapses during the transition period, it is only fair that things get back to normal as soon as possible; that usually means someone is going to be burning the midnight oil and as IBplc was taken over, their held over workers get to do the grunt work.

6. No one from the former IBplc or Access Bank has to show up for the funerals; would it have been nice to show solidarity at such a time? Of course but it is a personal choice as to whether one attends such events. Outside of the branch where the deceased worked, no one else should be expected to beat their chests and pull out their hair. Access Bank is your employer and NOT your relative. As long as they pay you, they don't owe you anything else.

7. Core staff and support staff are not the same thing nor do they share the same duties; why should support staff be afforded the same benefits of core staff? You're complaining about not receiving nursing mother benefits even though your were paid during your maternity?! Amazing. Here, maternity leave is unpaid.

8. The more I read, the more irritated I am becoming with the author of this piece. Unless the professional, core and support staff all have the same level of degree, the complaints should just end. Why should someone put in the time to earn a higher degree only to earn the pay money and benefits as someone that has a lower level degree?

I can't even continue...this person was kept following a takeover and still complains. I must need a nap because this whole piece is just full of whining for no justifiable reason.

Cheer up, upgrade your degree and try again. If Access still won't give you a chance, look elsewhere. Good luck. smiley
I am mobile so I can't break your post down.

I do not think the OP wants to earn the same salary as the MD; he wants support staff to be treated with the same degree of fairness as the core staff.

He gave examples of birthday cakes, recognition of outstanding duties and overtime. Sometimes, a letter of appreciation, a gift as little as a company brooch, a mail of gratitude or recognition during events will suffice.

If you see nothing wrong in the mgt not sending a delegation team to the funeral of the OP's dead colleagues, it is well.

We all want to pursue professionalism but let us first remember that it is human beings who work.
Career › Re: The Tales And Woes Of A Typical Access Bank Teller by bukatyne(f): 1:47pm On Oct 01, 2013
I doubt if banking institutions are run the same way outside the country.

@OP and all others in his shoes... Put in your best because one day, fortune will smile on you. Someone might like the way you work and give you a much better offer.

When you become a boss, remember how you feel now and treat your employees accordingly.

It is well with you

texanomaly: Thank you for your comment. I agree. We all need training. Any suggestions?

I have to say also that I agree with those who have mentioned the bible as a source of information on this subject. I will say though that not all NLz read the bible, so it is not a viable option for all.
I did not intend the bible to be the source of info for all; I was comparing the fact that the Bible spoke to both husbands and wives. The koran also counsels husbands and wives.

Any serious martial counselor should speak to both. Some might author books for one sex only BUT will acknowledge the fact that the other party needs to work at it too.

That's the problem I have with her.

Family › Re: The Proper Care And Feeding Of Husbands by bukatyne(f): 4:12pm On Sep 30, 2013
Nashville: While it is good to teach these principles as it helps alot, sometimes, marriage is not that complicated. A guy and girl are dating, they are in love, they cant wait to see each other everyday, they spend hours of fun together and all of a sudden, they get married and things change. Within months, some people can barely stand the same partner they were madly in love with some months back. I think sometimes what changes is that they have unnecessary expectations that may have come from some rule book about marriage. And each person thinks the other isnt performing his/her roles.

Alot of times, we read books, manuals and manuscripts about marriage. Lots of the people who are genuinely happily married never read these books and some of them are not even religious at all. If you genuinely love your partner, no one needs to tell you what to do as that love will show. You might have some bad behaviour (which everyone does), but the simple truth is that the love will always show. Even the Bible says love covers a multitude of sin. With love comes understanding, love is not selfish nor self seeking.

Not all men are the same, a women need only to understand her man and no other man! Your write up is lovely, but frankly, more geared towards couples who are not madly in love but trying to understand and tolerate each other. I am not saying love is everything, but it is very important!

Rhythm: Well to me, writing a book entitled 'the proper care and feeding of men' is insulting and kinda derogatory for the menfolk. It almost sounds like you are talking about a child or a household pet and not a full grown adult. Though the contents of the book seem nice, if I were a man, I'd find that title offensive. So I can only be glad people are not writing such things about women.

Rhythm: I think the point is, men are very simple and if women could get this then both men and women would be happy cheesy. Wish I could truthfully say women are simple too grin Not many have been able to figure out the formula for us women, and when they do, you'd see more books about it hopefully.

@Topic, I'm just hearing of Dr. Laura for the first time and I'd google her now but from the above article, I'd say she's good. I do not have a husband but I do have an almost-husband cheesy and I swear the 3 A's are a very good idea. Just that most times women already know these things but implementing them isn't always that easy.
You and I know that is not true.

Right from our youth, most girl children are trained to be wives. Our mothers might not have outlined it as 3 As or whatever but they taught what they knew. If it was working, our generation should have blissful marriages by now grin

My point is that men and women need to be taught on making marriage union work. Take a cue from the Bible: Everywhere that talked about marriage, the husband and wife was addressed. If God that created men 'simple' still felt the need to teach them, how much more a 'woman' who suddenly thinks she can read the minds of men.

P.S: What turns every man on is different. Find what turns yours on
Family › Re: The Proper Care And Feeding Of Husbands by bukatyne(f): 12:42pm On Sep 30, 2013
This training and re-training of women only for men have proven over the years to be highy ineffective

In most churches/mosques, we only see teachings and seminars for women. Even on NL, we get more of 'how to be a good wife thread' than vice versa. If it was working, we would have seen improvements around us.

The Bible has stated both parts of the hubby and wifey; any other thing is a counterfeit.

I agree with her 3 As though
Family › Re: Disobedient Wife. by bukatyne(f): 12:17pm On Sep 30, 2013
debrief08: Poster, If you are a Christian then I suggest you study your Bible very well, Husbands are instructed to LOVE their wives just as Christ Loved us with this kind of Love in 1st Corinthians 13:

 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.

With this kind of Love comes peace, submission and respect.
The reason why the Bible stated women should submit is because when a man loves you with the love described above some may take it for granted, so for balance the man is to love while the wife is instructed to submit to love.

There is too much emphasis on submission and none on love or very little on love.

From the passage above the kind of ego you described has no place in a Christian marriage and should be far from you as the head of your home.
If your love is pure, not rude, not arrogant and not boastful, and most importantly you don't seek to hurt or "Punish" your wife, half of the problems in your marriage will be over.

I beg churches to clearly explain this part to men, we have hammered too much on submission that most men just assume it is a given and have no work to do to earn it apart from just being a man and marrying someone.

Submission only works when it is done to a man who knows his own role and understands the value of submission, Submission is not to massage your ego, submission is a fruit of love.

This development is funny and not funny.

Most ladies looking for money bags do so because they want the finer things of life. However, when a woman starts husband hunting for basic things like food, clothing, shelter etc. It shows there are many things wrong. It is even terrible that they also need assistance to procure what they will take to the martial homes if they find a willing husband.

It's tempting to say they have low self esteem et al but how else do they know how to meet their legitimate needs? How many role models do they have? who in their environment is living life differently? Who is willing to train them? How do they think of their future when they are probably married off to much older men and thrown away aka divorced when they are tired? I know a 40+ man who said a girl of 23 was too old for him. This was after 2 yes marriage to her. He is educated and schooled abroad so we wouldn't say he is a local champion.

If they were in their hundreds, people might dismiss it as their fault but when they run to thousands in a state with more than 70% divorced, then something must be done.

Getting married is not even a solution to their problem because with the divorce system in the north, these women will soon be divorced again.

I do not know if their problem stems from their religion or culture. I believe that there are Islamic bodies in the south that can listen to these women cry for survival. Let them go tp the north and educate them. I assume there will also be other NGOs that can assist in one way or the other.

Let us not leave these women to their fate.

The couple, who have been married for 11 years and have a 13-year-old son together, have 'been spending time apart for quite some time.' It's thought the pair made the decision due to their different lifestyles because while the 64-year-old heartthrob likes the quiet life, his former Bond girl wife, 52, is more of a fan of ‘socialising with other bigwigs’. Why now? Not another divorce case! So sad sad

Did she force him to cheat on you?? Don't you think he could have cheated on you with any another girl?


Did the girl vow to stay faithful to you?? Is it the girl that owes you her loyalty or your husband?? The girl has done nothing to you, she can choose to open her legs to whoever she deems fit.

There are millions of people she could open her legs for but her friends husband. Since you didn't see anything wrong with her action I wish you plenty of such friends. My take is that both the Alhaja and the Op's hubby are at fault and the Op should reassess her trust level with them. A randy husband is as dangerous as a traitor friend.
