OK boss. Thanks

Walspring:
$350

OK bro. Well done.

brijibs:
No, through the Slack app. It has a call function, like WhatsApp.

She called your naija number??

brijibs:
Anyways, I have an experience to share. I planned on sharing this just after receipt of last week's pay, to be sure.
So, late Saturday night, I picked a 44min long call. Excited it was good call, I started transcribing.
After the 500th timestamp, the audio won't load. I ran to slack immediately. And as usually, they blamed it on my network. While I was trying to sort this with them, I opened an incognito page and started the job afresh there. At this time, I had 6hrs left to submit the job.
TL said the call had expired on me, my network was bad, and all sorts. I left her and simply did copy and paste.
Then, I got to the 542nd timestamp and the audio stopped loading. I ran back to slack, this time, I was really pissed! An SCC came to help, she too could not load beyond 500.
TL asked for screenshots, screen recording just to prove the call was still available to me, since she claimed someone else was working on the same call. I provided her with all she requested and waited. She said, I shouldn't bother continuing the job till they're able to figure out what the ish was.
30mins later, she call me, conducted another round of interview and hung up. But, before she hung up, she assured me I'd be paid for the length of time I'd worked on the call. But, it would be done manually, since I didn't get to complete and submit the call. Later, she apologized to me, that it was actually my email that was working on the call. So, it was a system glitch on their part.
I was elated! And decided to share, but only after I'd received the payment and confirmed I was paid for the 32+ mins I'd worked on that call. Through the night!

So, I'm sharing this because, we have this notion that they favor Philipinos more. While that may be true, if you do you due diligence, you just might be able to hold your own.

Please how much is Sevis fee now?

tegipraise:
Thank you @Walspring for helping me pay my sevis fee. it was so swift and seamless. you are an asset to this group Bro.

Hello bro, I sent you an email. Please do respond

SoNature:
Never knew what it felt like earning good salary until I quit my full-time job to start freelancing.

May God bless that lady called ladywriter.

'Error 401 You aren't authorized'
please is this a suspension?

lol OK. Thanks

sharwama:
No, I don't think it is "very necessary", I just think it's a "sensible" thing to do coz sometimes VOs question if you have taken standardized tests or not to help them satisfy their curiosity about the authenticity of your studentship. It's not a guarantee that you'd get your Visa approved because you took the test, but it's just a way of making sure there are no loopholes. It's like saying "anyhow you want it, I am ready for you today today"
I wish you all the best.

Please do you think it's very necessary to take GRE for Chemisty in ETSU? Thanks

sharwama:
ALL my African guys in Chemistry department got full funding this fall. I don't know about the availability of funding for Spring but I do know you have a really good chance as long as your overall application is impressive. ETSU is pretty generous. We work for them and we get a degree almost for FREE
I wish you all the best.

Please can you teach me this?

obamartins:
For me, it is working from the comfort of my bedroom while the music play at the background

Having absolute control of my time

Not saying "Yes Sir" to anyone for peanut at the end of the month

Earning over N500,000 monthly from my passion (Self-publishing)

Seeing my books selling with positive reviews from Americans and Britons

Seeing my hard work turn to USD at the end of the month in my Dorm account.

Seeing people rush to work in the morning while i sleep

The list is endless. I love what i do and i can't substitute it for anything.

I give all the Glory to God and the Holy Spirit for divine wisdom. My tithe is gradually moving from 5 digits to 6 digits and the income is gradually moving from six digits to seven digits.

Once again, i love my job with passion and i can't stop thanking God for His wisdom.

Hello everyone, I'm sorry that I'm putting this up here in this thread. I just feel there are lots of great men and women here than can help me. Please I am looking for a job. I have a degree in Applied Chemistry with a year and half experience, and job seeking has been a very frustrating adventure. I really don't have the connection that is often required in Nigeria to scale through. I am ready to pick up any responsibility even if outside my field and in anywhere in Nigeria. I don't want to waste the whole of this year again. So, please if you, or someone you know, do have or know a place where a competent hand is needed, I would be glad to fill the position. My email address is adedayo1{at}gmail.com, phone number: Zero8Zero22526818. Please help a brother. Thank you.

Wow. Please could you please help me? I'm presently looking for a job. Thanks

PrimadonnaO:
1. Awesome colleagues... we're like family.
2. Great work culture/environment. I like that I can call all my bosses by their first name. Initially, it seemed mighty awkward, but I adapted fine.
3. Best boss I ever had.
4. Flexi time flexi time flexi time!
5. Our weekly devotionals! It's everything! Sometimes, my faith is strengthened and I learn more there than I do in church.
6. No micro-managing.
7. No stiff-necks
8. Organization's really big on ethics.

wow

On a more serious note:
....

May God help this country and all it's citizens, every single one of us.
Crime has no tribe or religion but a skewed orientation can make it widespread amongst a specific people group.
The truth is we all as a people are gradually slipping into money worship - every single tribe in Nigeria- where people become role models once they have acquired money.
The way and manner they go about doing that is now inconsequential. Little wonder a misfit like Bobrisky for example,can open his/her confused mouth- and brag about the money he has acquired from his/her weird lifestyles and youngmen and women come out and talk about how he/she has money and so nobody should see wrong in what she/he is doing to get "rich".
The case of our politicians is even worse. We elect only the rich to office thereby incentivising the 'get rich by all means' syndrome.
Money is merely a means to an end not an end in itself. The end is supposed to be happiness and fulfillment which most times can be achieved without stupendous wealth and with 'just enough'.
The happiest and most fulfilled people decided to embrace simplicity and a minimalist approach to life and living- Scandinavia readily comes to mind.
I pray for a change in orientation about money among the black race- especially young Nigerians- because we see money as an end while the inventors of the same money and most of the 'good things of life', view it simply as a means to an end.
I don't feel holier than those whose crimes have been exposed more because it affects me daily in my dealings with other races and we still carry the same green passport.
May God help us all as a people.

lol..our people sef

femijohn21:
Thanks, you so much. I think you are a leader that knows how to address issue. Receive your Visa in Jesus name.

lol..

ImaIma1:
As long as your behaviour does not translate into insultive words directed at me.

At least you have a job, bro. Life is more than boring and frustrating without a job. I'm deep in that shit right now and it's very ugly. Getting very difficult to remain positive.

jrobbins:
You said nothing but the truth. Boring here, work, close, take a sip of wine, see news, sleep and wake up early again for work. Trash

Please house, who knows how DMs(not emails o) work here on Nairaland? Thanks.

Hmmmm.....May God help us.

ImaIma1:
True talk. I was on a forum and I realized that a large number of people earn between 35k to 50k as graduates. How is someone supposed to comfortably build a family on that.

The employers make them believe "there's no job out there". A big lie. It is well.

Bro, how much will it cost me to get that type of your headphone?

hausadreturn:
Thought as much. That keyboard, I wonder how guys excel in it. No wonder I haven't used a phone in 4 like months.

Kudos, bro. How many of those FC UK calls do you normally do, on average, in a day?

Biggieboy:
If u are new on qa and u are still struggling with 2's and 3's, I won't advise u to pick any fc uk call. With time, when u get better and start getting back to back 4's and 5's then u can just decide that this week the only calls i'll pick will be fc uk calls. Before u know it, after like 1 to 2 weeks u'll start getting used to it.


I don't work on CLH calls till now because it's just not worth it. At least fc uk, their pay is higher than normal...

AS Hausadreturn said, please say something to us, bro . Thanks.

Biggieboy:
My qa payment for this week.

It could have easily been over $90 if all my calls were rated before cut off...

Making $100 a week on qa is not really a big ish like some people here feel. Once u take ur time to study and find ways to improve then you'll definitely be able to cash out big on a weekly basis.


For those asking if qa transcription can be a full time; Yes, it definitely can if u put ur heart to it.

For those that believe the platform is rigged against Africans; I am an African(Nigerian) and I made $81 last week (minus bonus) with back to back 5 and 4 ratings. If you believe they edit ur transcript after u submit, trust me, you will get frustrated and won't be able to take full advantage of qa transcription.


The tin dat has really kept me going is the fact dat I believe whatever a filipino can do, I can do much better because I am a Nigerian
