Courses in the medical field are always in demand particularly after this Covid pandemic. So you should be covered in that regards. €25 hourly pay is quite high. Are you sure about that amount? If it is the rate then you are looking at €60k a year which is very, very good.
Thank you for the answer
Qualified nurses with some experience get close to that amount here. You won't get that in a job like mine, if not everyone will jump in the bandwagon.

hey chiggsglover, i am about to apply for an MSC in perinatal mental health at the university of limerick. any idea if mental health jobs are lucrative over there? i am not a nurse tho.

my worry is that they may prefer nurses with mental health degree over me, i have a b.sc in biochemistry.

secondly i checked on indeed.com, and i saw the hourly pay is 25$ which is 200$ per day, 1,400& per week and 5600$ per month is that bad compared to the standard of living.... rent ,groceries and stuff?
It sounds lucrative actually. But your estimation in indeed, pls verify o. They are supposed to state that in Euros not dollars. Might be for another country.
There's something I would like to say, given my experience with statistics, Psychology isn't very lucrative as schools would have us believe. Why nursing is good because, in every mental ward, hospitals, care homes, therapy.... You'll find a nurse and the steps in becoming one isn't very tough compared to a doctor. You don't need to fire 4 years of your life in school. Even school certs holders can get employed. The pay isn't bad. It can be a hectic job if you work in the hospital and care homes. But in a job like mine, it can be flexible. Where I have to work in homes 5-20 walk from my house, and greatly shorter with a bicycle.

I was on my way to work two days ago and I saw that, it was really fresh, seems they did it that morning because the amount of wind here would have picked off all the evidence. I could still get the distinct smell of Tar.

This patch of road that was just adjusted is very common in Dublin. You'll recognize them by how they have a square or rectangular shape and a slightly different colour. It takes a really long time for it to match up with the other part of the road.
When a pothole begin to form, concerned citizens will inform the dublin city council. These are the first government body we can interact with, they will go through the red tapism and sort the pothole, no matter the shape n size of the hole and damage, it must fit in a square or rectangle. Then they'll destroy and build the patch anew.

Why do we have to wait for things to get worse before we take action?
When various potholes of various sizes and strength begin to emerge, we take no action and wait for it to get worse so we can cry to the government. The government themselves have eyes, don't they drive on road or do they have wings? Seems they actually get lots of thrills by dodging these potholes like bullets. The way the car throws the local government official as their driver swings around like the Mr. Anderson in The matrix.

I'm also kinda thinking, if you take a picture of a pothole and visit the local government office and demand that they fix this portion of the new road that is going bad at an increasing rate. They will look at themselves in awe and burst into laughter. They will tell you that the road has to go bad before they can fix it, and that if there's no road to fix, what will they use and enter second term.

The reality is that potholes are bound to happen. Whether we like it or not. We must do something about it. If you ignore them, they begin to expand and spread. The first thing is to ensure that the pothole is socially distant, with some little road signs. The next step is to access the damage and before the repair is done. You'll end up fixing a patch which may cost not too much. If it's left to its own, you end up with a Big time Road Project

Politics / Re: Nigerian Youth Movement by Chiggsglover(m): 7:47pm On Jun 27, 2020
youthsinitiativ:


Greetings to you dear brother and comrade in the struggle for a Nigeria of our dreams.

The need to retire the old foxes and take our destinies, future, country, and lives in our hands is what has given birth to this movement.

So many have gone on to call me all manner of names and trying to dissuade me but I remain resolute in my resolve to galvanize enough of us youths leveraging on our huge numbers to say "enough is truly enough".

I'm going to share this little story with you.

Over 20 years ago, with these same old foxes calling the shots and the general mood of the country was chaos and utter unpredictability, a good number of us had decided to take ours and our family. destinies in our hands by bracing the fiery deserts of the Sahara desert, and raging waters of the Atlantic/Meditteranean en route Spain and Italy for a better life and to dig our families out from the chains of hopelessness this wasteful lots had plunged the average Nigerian into.


The idea then was, why just sit down like a lame-duck without much of an attempt at life when I can actually make a move to better my fortunes, and should I die in the process, that should at least count for something that I died trying to have a life instead of sitting idly, not making an effort, and still perishing in hunger.

Yes, a lot of us perished along the way but we died with our chins up while we saw our lives flashed right before us while laying curses on the demons who had destroyed a country rich in the best of whatever God could deposit under and above a land. We were proud to be dying as a people who tried to better their lots instead of giving up hope, complaining to no end, and accepting to allow a rotten status quo be a norm.

So much bro has inspired me into rallying the youths for this movement.

The movement we seek to build is simply to leverage on the huge youth numbers for a generational shift and a social revolution like never before seen in Nigeria.

They'd try to hunt us down, oppress and silence us but there is certainly so much they can silence. The entire youths of the country is what they will have to contend with.

Taking a cue from the failure of other movements, this is to be set up in such a way that infiltration by saboteurs and agents will amount to a waste of time.

We are first of all leveraging on the advantages of the social media to mobilize as much people as we can. Everyone is an equal stakeholder and leader in the group. There shall be state coordinators, LGA coordinator down to ward levels for information dissemination.

Please, kindly come on our telegram group. We are still in the formative process trying to get it right from the foundation so as not to go the way of others.

The movement isn't going to be about one man, it is about the Nigerian youth.

We know not North, South, East, West, Muslim, Christian, after all the enemies of state as they are presently composed are non-discriminatory. The Nigerian youths is all that matters to us.

Please, join us let's share ideas on the best way forward.

As per finance, let's get a structure and get going, the financial aspect will be sorted.

Chiggsglover

Well spoken, let's get a presence on other platforms, so as not to put any political pressure on seun. We can be as faceless as possible to draw away political attacks from someone. They must have to Fight the Youth and as we all know. The Youths are Leader of tomorrow. The harsh truth is, these leaders are old, they can't live forever, what we must ensure is that they never transfer these ideologies that have made Nigeria what it is today.

About the political party. It's a huge step. The cabal is huge and all powerful.
We can start by gathering our number, getting our voices heard. The EndSARS deserved a peaceful protest. I really felt our voice alittle then but it was quite weak.
There's a lot to do.
The main idea is to get our voice together as one and scream.

Check the critical skills list for Ireland but I doubt if it is there. Alternatively, try Canada as they have an agricultural immigration scheme which looks good!
Well said, thank you for the wonderful answer, farming here is one kind. I sha know that the small farm we have, Ireland has some migrating workers that travel, work n go back.
Like you said, Canada has better deals.

You're doing a great work Nigga
Lol
Dublin is quite busy and vibrant. It's the Lagos of Ireland.
There are other busy places also like limerick, cork and galway. They are cheaper to live in.
But it's easier to get a job here.i hear those in galway speak more Gaelic than other parts of Ireland. Enya also has a castle there too.

I am particularly glad the MOD of Nairaland have stopped the animal trend. The one where we kill an animal and snap it. It was dreadful. Our wild life is disappearing. Some species can only be found in Nigeria. Once it's gone, it's gone.

I wrote something about that and I just observed that I have stopped seeing it in the front page past few days.
It's a huge relief.
