RomanceRe: Am I Making A Mistake? by Edet08(m): 5:27am On Dec 17, 2019
My dear, forget about the car and house cause from your narrative he’s doing well. Probably this is the main reason people around you keep advising you to be patient. It’s your happiness that’s at stake here. A man who does these things to you prior marriage would never change. Quote me any way. But one thing is certain ,if you decide to proceed, a life of misery, sorrows, pains, and even premature death awaits you. Use your tongue to count your teeth my dear.
CareerRe: How Lucrative Is TIG Welding In Nigeria? by Edet08(m): 8:04am On Dec 09, 2019
SMAW ( Shielded Metal Arc Welding) aka “stick” welding and GTAW( Gas Tungsten Arc Welding) aka TIG aka argon ,are both lucrative trades. Once you’re good and able to demonstrate your ability to deposit sound welds that meet the requirements of a qualified WPS (Welding Procedure Specification) through a welder performance test, you’re good to go assuming you’re looking at working in the construction industry. Often times, contractors prefer combination welders( SMAW and GTAW for pipe welding.
I encourage you to go for it.

CrimeRe: Ogunbanwo Emmanuel: TASUED Finalist Commits Suicide Over Carryovers by Edet08(m): 12:35pm On Aug 20, 2019
GistUpdates:
A final year student of the Tai Solarin University of Education, Ogun State, has taken his own life.

According to his colleagues, Ogunbanwo Emmanuel allegedly hanged himself yesterday, because he had three carry overs and wouldn’t be eligible for Teaching Practice.

See more here; http://gistmore.com/tasued-final-year-student-commits-suicide-over-carryovers-photo
Only threehuh Oh No! I had cumulated twelve carry-overs throughout my 5years of engineering study. I was depressed, downcast and all. I knew I was going to spill over on the day of my internal defense having seen I failed a 500L first-semester course. I lost composure, but somehow I got it back. There and then, I resolved within me to ace my defense and my degree exams which I did.
I returned back to campus as a full-time spill over student, took my studies seriously though it was tough. I knew I had to rewrite my future else it will be difficult for me. I paid my dues and aced all my outstanding courses. Today, I am a successful mechanical quality engineer.
Whoever may be reading this, failure is not an option for suicide. Rather, be glad you failed and ensure not to repeat the same mistake.

P.S. Despite having twelve COs, I was on a 2.6CGPA, which goes to show I wasn't a dullard. I was only busy chasing what wasn't chasing me.LOL

Shut up and stop lying...why have you not told us your offense? Guyman, you messed up big time. I know that terrain too well, no soldier would just deal with a worker in this manner,especially in DFL project. Truth be told, most of the workers in the ongoing DF project are criminals cum cultist. Trust me, he messed up big time and got served.
FamilyRe: I Caught My Housemaid Sexually Assaulting My Son by Edet08(m): 7:47am On Jul 16, 2019
Hello bro, I’m a father too and I feel your pains. First, you need to understand that you’ve prioritized work and all over family. Had it been the other way round,you would have known the genesis of this behavior. If you spend quality time with your son, trust me he will be free to tell you anything that goes on in your absence. I had similar experience when growing up, couldn’t tell anyone cause no one was there. In fact I didn’t get that love from my parents. Spend time with your family, at least you’ve noticed it now. Talk with your son. If you must spank him for him to understand his wrong,please go ahead. Both of them must be punished. Instill morals in them. Don’t say they are too young. No. And please don’t send that maid away. You have a duty to mould her. I believe they can become better persons if you and your wife is willing. God bless you.

PoliticsRe: Four Refineries To Work By 2023, Says NNPC Boss by Edet08(m): 9:13am On Jul 09, 2019
I laugh out when Dangote Refinery is being mentioned. You want to deliver the Refinery by the first quarter of next year? It’s not possible. The project hasn’t even gotten to 10%. In fact , come 2022, the project would still not be completed. Rather, focus on delivering the fertilizer project, it’s possible you deliver that one next year.

OP...there’s nothing too difficult for God to do. With a sincere heart, I believe you can call upon God and He will deliver you. Provided you’re willing to repent and never go back, His Grace will be sufficient for you. But if after repentance and you somehow still continue in the past, your sins will find you out. God bless you.

Yes, if you belong to a cult, you can quit. However, you need guidance and help from someone with wisdom to paddle the waters

There is always a way out, don't let anyone deceive you and let no one despise your youth.

Quit now when you have the time before it is too late.

TravelRe: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by Edet08(m): 2:11pm On Jun 17, 2019
afosahid:
In my experience here, these guys prefer people with local experience and certifications. So they prefer inspectors certified by Weld Australia and AICIP for in-service applications. They also recognise CSWIP a lot more than AWS here.

All that being said, your certifications are the least of your problems. Biggest hurdle is local experience & limited opportunities for your role, but its not impossible.

Suitable locations are Western Australia & Queensland.
Thanks bro.
TravelRe: Living In Australia/life As An Australian Immigrant by Edet08(m): 3:25pm On Jun 15, 2019
afosahid:
Thanks. Background is Mechanical Engineering. Work experience has been in metal fabrication as a Quality Assurance and control professional. My Quality Assurance experience is also very relevant to a lot of industries like manufacturing and the likes.

I honestly can't say the 5 page CV affected applications negatively. I know for a fact that most recruiters here use ATS (Applicant tracking System) software to review CVs of hundreds of applicants. This basically searches applicant's CVs for keywords relevant to the job descriptions for the roles advertised. So whether your CV has just 1 page or 5 pages, so long as the keywords match for the roles advertised, you should be shortlisted. I was very concerned I wasn't getting as many call backs as expected. But the general advice here even from people who have been in the industry for a while is to keep your CV concise.

Key advice from me is that all new applicants should not just apply indiscriminately for jobs. Your job applications must be targeted. Read job descriptions and tailor your CV to suit the requirements of the role so long as it is in your field and you have the experience. Some people even go as far as lifting the job description from the role advertised and just make slight modifications to their CV. This will most likely help you pass the ATS screening and increase your chances of getting an invitation for interview.

These are key areas prospective migrants and new arrivals should be paying attention to. I noticed a good number of people only want to see pictures and read about the beautiful stories about holidays and the road trips. My people, your first few months in this country can be quite tough ooo. Pay attention to the key details you need to navigate the job market here. Don't let reality hit you unprepared grin grin grin
Brotherly I greet you. Just a quick one. I’m working on relocating as well. I’m a QC welding inspector with AWS Certification. Are there good enough chances of getting an inspection job over there? Also, which state or province would you recommend I move to based on my career?

NAS amongst all of them is an ideal confraternity. The horrendous killings and supremacy battles made them leave the university environment decades ago. Most top members of other frats do aspire to become seadogs later on because of the prestige. They have no time for stupid killings, its more on how their members can be of influence in the society. Thats all i know so far unless you tell me otherwise with facts. But still good for you, nothing like being free.
I’ll leave it like this...

If only students can just be serious by spending quality time studying hard,most of the problems we have in this country right now would reduce. To be honest, often times its not like there are no jobs out there, the problem is most ''graduates'' are not employable as they can not meet up with their acclaimed degrees.

Many times , I've tried to look at this girl's face closely. I swear I can't still find that beauty .

Though she has a great body, but her face is of those typical Igbo girls that have been stuffed with Akpu since birth .
Especially the forehead... Just try and focus on it for a sec and tell me what you see...
