See, i can even write a program to hatch an egg

Oya just do this one for the boys now, based on community service

Hello guys, am in need of a software for Farm Management, any ideas, am willing to pay. Preferably a Php based software.

Hello house, Please when is the deadline for MSc project submission?

But if u take time to read the corrections, they r actually on point. The student probably just lifted this off the Internet, it doesn't even correspond with Nigeria. Clear case of plagiarism.

I have noticed that the issue of hitting a woman is a very touchy subject. Most people are of the opinion that a man should never hit a woman, no matter the reason or situation. Now lets consider the following situations:

1. You catch a woman red handed trying to lure and kidnap your child...is it ok to hit her?

2. You experience your wife, girlfriend, sister, or mother being robbed and beaten by another woman...is it ok to hit her?

3. You catch a woman red handed stealing your hard earned money or property...is it ok to hit her?

4. A woman physically attacks you, and you have to defend yourself...is it ok to hit her?

I really want to know your opinions on this...

To all those resuming camp today, i wish you all the very best, as you go there as civilians today, may you all come out as strong gallant soldiers. Serve all your jobs with joy, knowing that its just for a while...No Pain, No gain!

This looks like something I will do in my next job application or interview, will love to see d looks on their faces... Thats if they will comprehend sef.

Novelty:
You should have a sheer patriotism to serve your country if you intend to join the military and not to be bothered about the money or incentive.

LOL, abeggi... Who patriotism don help, why not just volunteer then.

Congrats to those that made it . Whats this talk of a supplementary list...any hope?

What about those of us who don't want to work for anybody, neither do we want to pass through the stress of starting up a business. Isn't there a way to just lounge and be chopping the money?

I really wish i can get responses...

So, i have been looking for a better Job opportunity for some time now, although i have a job, but i know that i am grossly underpaid. Recently though, i have been having this feeling that i will never be satisfied by any salary, no matter the amount. I feel like i should start something of my own, but i am really torn apart on which business to startup.

Everybody talks about doing what you are passionate about. But sincerely, i am not passionate about anything, i believe more in obligation, duty and being responsible for something.

Am i the only one who doesnt feel this "PASSION" everybody talks about? Lemme know whether to go and manufacture passion from somewhere.

Feeling like an Idiot doesn't necessarily make me an idiot but judging an anonymous as an idiot based on 15 words certainly raises concerns of your IQ and makes you look like an Idiot...you dig?

Why so pained tho...technically, i didn't call you an Idiot, i just quoted your own words cos it was funny. But from your reply, you obviously already think of yourself as an Idiot. My bad for engaging you in the first place!!! . Thought you were matured, and had a sense of humour.

Na wa, this wait is tiring, especially wen u have some other stuff pending because of the wait. It shall all come out well finally by Gods grace!

Vanquay:
I don't know why, but I feel like an idiot for actually clicking that link

...Well, i think u have said it all

Pls guys, when is course registration closing?

How to Avoid Truecaller:

1. Buy a new Sim
2. Register the Sim
3. Buy a nokia torchlight fone and put the sim inside
4. Dont call anybody with the fone, and dont give anybody your number.

Hello house, pls i did 8 courses, and on checking the results i can only see 6 there. Should i be worried?

Checkout tuteria.com. It should be helpful

The answer to your question is on this thread, hidden in the comments of people who feel companies have every right to treat people like dirt.

I've seen people give answers like "Because they can," "Because you are begging for a job," "Because this is Nigeria."

And I disagree with all of them.

1. Because they 'can' do so does not mean they 'should' do so. Because they are in such a high place does not mean they should treat prospective employees like dirt.

2. The words 'seeking' is quite different from 'begging'. I've seen someone use the latter on this thread. Do not let anyone make you feel you are 'begging' for a job. Companies put up vacancies all the time, looking for graduates to fill up positions. And because you applied doesn't mean you've relegated to begging. And even if you didn't apply the conventional way, it doesn't still give anyone the right to disrespect you or claim you are 'begging'.

3. Because it happens in Nigeria doesn't also mean it must continue to happen. I believe change starts with us all. It was brave of you to tell the interviewers that you didn't like staying under the sun. Do not let anyone tell you otherwise. In fact anyone who tells you that it was wrong for you to stand up to these people do not know or understand their worth. Keeping quiet would have meant you telling those people "I am happy to be your slave, and I will go through whatever hell you bring my way without protest." And believe this, you would have a horrible time working for a company who treats people like dirt.

If applicants raise their standards, I believe employers will treat them accordingly. But if they continue to lower their standards, giving ridiculous excuses why companies should continue to treat them wrongly, then I believe these companies will continue to do so with pleasure.

Tnks for this post, I just wish more people can begin to see things this way, it will surely bring about change. Cheers.

to be honest I feel your treatment is related to the role they are interviewing you for . I had an interview @ d HQ of a partcular bank for operations unit sha and from the gate we were ushered into a room not too expansive yet had 3 Gud split units! they repeatedly came to apologise to us for the delays. in beginning the process.
our handler was very polite and jovial , and after an hour of waiting one of their messangers came in with sweet sensation double burgers(can't remember d actual name). and hollandia yoghurt ! some people were forming others chow d thing after 2 more hours the interview commenced.
then I went for an interview at an insurance firm (run by a first generation bank). didn't know financial adviser is same thing as marketer lol and we were there 4 hours no pure water. I scanned the hall we were all cramped into smiled and took my leave .

To an extent I agree with u. I have been to several interviews, I know sometimes they try to test ur endurance, patience and all that, but this one was purely a case of poor organization.

mikolo80:
Cos you're not needed (low demand) you're too many (high supply) so your price(value) is low(not worth very much)
abi don't you see the way ppl treat 10and20Naira versus 100dollar bill

Couldn't have been better said, that's just the hard truth.

Ethan015:
They didn't treat u well from your story.
but I feel you over reacted. it's usually not a fun for any company to organise recruitment exercise. Telling them you can organise a better interview is a mockery to those guys screening you. Perhaps, they were equally employed to bring u in. I bet you just dashed the opportunity. It's true you ain't begging no one for any job, but how much you can tolerate is an advantage. This is Naija, civilization is still far.

Sorry for the way they made you feel anyway.
Good luck

I know I wasn't supposed to answer the way I did, but to an extent I had lost interest in the job due to some factors, so I just decided to wait and give them a piece of my mind, they were actually receptive, and I left on a good note.

Cutehector:
pls send me ur account number, u deserve a bottle of wine for dat answer to their question

damton:
You are hungry and in need of a source of income .

inotherwords, a job seeker is more or less at the mercy of any recruiting organization

Ideally it shouldn't be so. Am not hungry, am not begging for a job, I saw a job I was qualified for and applied for it, simple.

WarRLaY:
Op, want to be treated like a king, that cool,.. you should have created a job 4 ur self .. remember no 1 promise you a job after school, u were only sent there to be educated ...

Change ur thinking. So providing something as basic as seats and shelter for candidates is being treat like a king? Smh for u.

Bitterleafsoup:
So many candiates come in and act mumu don't blame us.

You will come for interview in a professional office with slippers, jeans and t-shirt...
You will come in breath smelling like dry fish and egusi....
You will come in with stained and dirty CV...
You will come in without your certificates and letter of refrences...
You will come in and not greet people, as if you had no upbringing...

If you would have answer me that way I wouold have called security, so your lucky!

For real? So because some pple didn't package well, does that mean u should treat the rest anyhow? And what's ur basis for calling security? U need to change the way u think.

So, i was somewhere in Abuja for an interview yesterday. I was actually scheduled for 10am, i got there at about 9:45am, unfortunately i, and other candidates were made to wait outside under the sun, no seats whatsoever, we were just standing for many hours, before we were finally attended to.

Its really a pity that companies who flaunt themselves as topnotch in the country cannot properly carry out an organized interview exercise. Its high time employers in the country stop treating graduates as if they are begging for jobs, we went through school, and we earned our degrees, we deserve more respect than is being accorded us.

Anyways, when i finally got seated for my interview, and they asked me what i could offer the company, i made sure i pointed out the fact that their organization for the interview was poor, and i could do a better job. They promply told me "We will get back to you"... i hope they do .
