djon78:
My sister relocated to Canada earlier this year with her kids and husband on permanent residence

She came back two months ago
She couldn't cope
Someone the level of manager here in a big blue chip company to go back to nursing school

She came back
And a bigger company is hiring her here now
Her husband said he will stay
To get Canadian passport for his family after 3 years of stay.


Abroad na scam
The money you make here is way higher than what they will pay you in Candia
This is the example of the entitlement mentality I am talking about. Apparently, your sister thought she will get a $200,000 job beacuse of that fact that she has a rare skill or what. Does this dispute the fact that there are some people that got life changing jobs after relocation? See, that something worked for you does not mean it will work for another person.

Country give you PR, make e still give you the best jobs easily.

Life na per head ooo.

Safe.

Don’t MIND them.
IMAGINE people coming from where there is so much HAPPY TRIGGER UNDERDEVELOPMENT, expecting to rise to the position of CEO.

May God have mercy on them.
I have always told people that PRIDE kills.
U have to start small.
The Good THING first is that you have LEFT NIGERIA as a struggling youth.

Now Transfer that STRUGGLE to those that will value and add value to it.
OPPORTUNITIES abound Overseas.
WHITES don’t have too many kids like we do in Nigeria.
They do not have HIGH DEPENDENCY RATES.
They control their BIRTH RATES.
The moment you arrive, get settled, STUDY their RULES 1st, then be focused and speed up.
Thanks bro. I strongly agree with the saying that we are so entitled. You are entitled to free medical care, free education for your child till high school and other juicy things which is unthinkable in your country yet you say the best jobs are not easy to get. Abeg remain for your country.

Enjor bro wink

U want to relocate to a decent LAND and take over management, possibly carry your NIGERIA GENES to their workplaces and infiltrate them with underdevelopment abiiii
Well articulated assertiion. Nigerian will go to Canada and expect to get the best jobs in no time after offering you PR. Funny people grin

franchasng:
My mentor, preach on sir...tell them.

Money is the major ingredient of today marriage cos we are in a capitalist, monetized world....without money love can never be sustained.

Guys should always remember, that your 300k or 500k monthly income cannot sustain you + broke/unemployed wife + broke in-laws demands + your own parent's upkeep + kids (when kids start coming).....it will weigh you down.

That's why you see guys that bought a car while single, after they marry, they keep driving the same car for 5yrs and above no change, no new building project, no new business startup, just to eat, pay house rent, pay children school fees, and the year ends and the cycle continues till kids become teenagers, then graduates and daddy and mummy have no business or company or tangible investment for them to inherit and start life with....they continue with the suffering daddy and mummy started with again and it goes on and on till God knows when.

These things are not the hand work of village witches, it is the hand work of Nigerian men indirectly encouraging Nigerian women to be lazy and dependent on men alone, it has to stop for Nigeria to grow and progress as a nation
You have been dropping it like it is hot on here. Great thoughts tho grin shocked

Congrats to all the ITA clinchers.

My Hod has refused to change the title of position when I served from Corper to Budget Officer despite much pleading. I explained what I want to use it for yet he said I was a Corper then. Much of my experience after service has been freelancing while the other experience I can claim is without salary. How do I go about this conundrum?

Your thoughts?

Thanks y'll

[quote author=boco2126 post=73293040]On this IELTS issue...my two cents.

1. Stick to a FEW practice materials! The number of materials for IELTS that we see on a daily on this thread can be overwhelming. Try out only a few and stick to the one that resonates with you. Don't use ieltsliz, Jay, Cambridge, ieltsadvantage, road2ielts etc at the same time (some of these peope don't agree on the same approach and reading all can get really confusing). If you try one and it sits well with you, ditch others. Focus on that one and be a master of it. I almost got overwhelmed at some point, because l wanted to open every link or try every material l saw here. But l had to give myself brain oh.

2. Practise everyday. No excuses. Create the time. Even at work, you can use your lunch break to practise. Instead of listening to music or radio on your way to work, listen to your downloaded tips on writing, speaking, reading, listening. When walking down the streets, have an earpiece on (l hate this, but we can make sacrifices for one month abi?) and keep LISTENING. At weekends, practice speaking with your wife/husband, friend, son/daughter etc. Write out questions and tell them to ask you (under exam conditions). I finished a WHOLE 30 leaves notebook for listening practice (yeah l work an 8 to 5 and live on the mainland with my office on the island -remember, no excuses!). Always check your wrong answers and replay those portions and find out what you didn't hear properly. I used youtube for listening/speaking/reading.

3. There's this ielts expert too, one Ryan (cannot remember his surname) that l think is underrated. I used his tips for writing. He talks about 15 sentences max for writing. 3 paragraphs with 4 sentences and the closing paragraph should have 3 sentences. This keeps you in check and you already know what to write before the exam, all you will be waiting for on the ielts day is the topic given! I can share his materials if you drop your email address.
For writing, write letter and essays! Don't read what someone else wrote. Write yours too. Some people practise writing by reading another's work -WRONG! write yours too and compare. Minimum letters to write on different topics - 10. Minimum essays - 20. Revise your work and look for better ways to reconstruct your sentences. I suggest you write with pencil on your exam day so you can erase if need be.

4. For reading - use youtube. It also has a timer, so practice using the time and don't stop the timer or pause the video. The easiest comprehension in reading are the first two. Spend less time there. Say 5 mins tops for each. You do not need to UNDERSTAND nada. Just look at the instructions (very important), then the questions, then scroll through the passages for the answers. You need all your time for the last two passages. They are more technical.

5. For speaking - Be confident, relaxed and know your basic english and introduction (see ieltsliz). See this as an interview. We all attend interviews don't we? I got a list of 42 likely cue cards from ieltsliz blog (l think she said they change it every 3 months but she always update the cue card questions) and l practiced the 42 different topics and l always set my two minutes timer with my phone. You can be in the BRT or your car and practice this one, or when walking down the street or whilst doing chores at home, or lying down in your bed doing nothing (l did this. Some days, people will think you are going crazy because you are talking to yourself, but...who no go no know). One of the 42 questions l practiced was my cue card during my speaking test -something on my pet animal (l was wondering "madam why me? Animal kwa?" but because l had practised earlier, the examiner had to cut me off when it was two minutes. I just went on and on.

4. Lastly and certainly not the least...the place of PRAYER. I'm catholic, so when l saw the prayer to St. Joseph of Cupertino here, l made a mental note to say it. I started saying it every day from September till i wrote my exam on the 1st of November. I even added a 9 days St. Joseph of Cupertino novena with prayer and fasting which ended on the 31st of October (l'm that extra oh. I left no chances). I asked my family to add me in their prayers too. So, pray, pray and pray. Whatever works for you. Someone dropped one St. prayer here on financial assistance for POF, best believe l'll look for that prayer and do it too!

5. People have done it, you too can. Don't be discouraged if you have tried more than once. We don't give up on this thread oh. Being here has taught me a different level of selflessness and never say never spirit. People you don't even know are quick to help and empathise and l am still in awe of you guys.

6. Please drop your email address so l can send the Ryan materials to you.

This too shall pass!

All the best everyone and my apologies for the long post.

Acidosis:
You're a self-acclaimed online billionaire yet reason like a poverty stricken person. Where was it stated that the monthly salary was N200k? Who told you new roles and vacancies are meant for unemployed people?

Some are merely looking for a pay upgrade, career advancements, and more. Many job seekers have millions in the bank, monies saved up from previous jobs, side hustles, etc.

Let's even assume the dude has no previous work experience, should a so called billionaire who has travelled far and wide share this kind of thoughts?

What you've stated is very typical of a Nigerian employer. I bet you don't know an employee deserves more than salary from his employer. Your employer is supposed to train you (including oversea trainings FOC), give you and your family a health insurance cover, give you a car or at least settle your transportation allowance, grant you timely promotions and leave, plan your holiday trips with you, among others.

This whole thing may sound very strange to you because Nigerians are generally made to see hardship and stress as an ideal way of life.
Well said bro. Many employees in Nigeria don't even know they can negotiate for remote and flexible working agreement. It is a pity people only know about salary here. cry

Donald J Trump has a multi-million dollar company. Donald J Trump has leadership experience

Comparing Sowore to DJT is an insult to DJT who had at least forty years of experience in business and had been in political circles for at least a decade before contesting Presidency. If there is any contestant who can be compared to DJT, it is when Atiku, because he is also an avid businessman.

Sowore has stood by truth all his life, that is quite funny. He is no more than an activist who spent more time doing his activism from abroad, that is why I put him next to segalink, who has become far more influential than Sowore in a space of one year in the same activism.

How many people has Sowore helped get out of jail? How many people has he had direct impact in their lives? He does a lot of talking and such, but how far have his words gone in Nigeria as far as policy impact? Segalink was one of those who spearheaded the #EndSARS movement, does Sowore have any such movement with his name attached to it?

There is a certain Dr. Funmilayo on Twitter who stays in the UK, he spearheaded the #Reform9jaBanks movement and that was what led to the Senate passing the motion which ordered CBN to seize collection of ATM charges from banks amongst others.


These are peopoe whose level of activism have led to change. Does Sowore have any of these stories under his belt or is he just one of those with sweet words?

Family › Re: Can It Work? 37 Years Old Guy Set To Marry A 20 Year Old? by damzy88: 1:38am On Nov 03, 2018
Ishilove:
Let me tell you a true life story- mine.

I was in 200 level, age 22 when I met this man, let's call him Paul.

Paul was very well educated, was running his PHD and was very comfortable when I met him. Paul was also 39 years old; 17 years my Senior.

22 year old me found his outpouring of affections very intriguing. I found his maturity very alluring while he found the prospect of being the first person to 'enter the place' a complete novelty. (I was still a virgin at that age).

Paul wooed me with vigour and alacrity because I was his spec- BBW, homely, studious and very Christian. All my favourite gospel songs are gifts from Paul.

When I told my mother about Paul and his intention to wife me, she smiled with great effort and sner on her way without making any comment. As the relationship continued, her smile turned to a grimace. She was like Ishi, let him go and look for his mate."

She never outrightly opposed my relationship with Paul but in time I began to find his world so...daunting and adult. While I giggled and jumped over his furniture, he would sit at his desk and look at me like a long suffering uncle.

He would tell me about the Oracle of Delphi and Euripedes, discuss world politics and religion, as well as the trends in international relations, while all the time all I wanted was just to gossip about Professor Ibidapo-Obe's antics.

It got to a point I began to find his maturity repelling. He had such big plans for us and our future, while I on my own part had other plans for my life that did not include marriage. I wanted to enjoy my youth while I still had it, but Paul, he had seen it all and was ready to start life with me. I wanted him to be young with me, not always so thoughtful and slow to react.

Meanwhile my mum was in her corner grimacing and giving me side eyes. embarassed

I was scared, and I fled from Paul. Mature, intelligent and oh, so stingy Paul...

Op, it may work for you but I speak from someone who has walked the walk so I can boldy talk the talk. She is too young for you.

QED.

Last I heard of Paul, he ended with a woman three years his Junior and they are living happily ever after.

You can either agree that it's a positive development by saying settling down in thirties helps people to gain financial stability,career establishment as well as prepare them emotionally for commitment that comes with marriage.This should be your thesis then,you support these ideas in subsequent paragraphs.

You can also say it's a negative development then give reasons why you think so
