Is your parking brake on grin

Nah, seriously, dirt and/or rust especially if it was wet when parked. You can alternative d and r a few times, if not you need someone to come free it and once free, get calipers, pad and hub checked.
Thanks. Finally going to the shop tomorrow.

Why am I excited?

Hi.

One of the front wheels on my Kia Sorento isn’t rolling. No problem before it was parked for about 4 months. What could be the problem?

Truth is, there's a way out for both AS partners to marry without having SS babies but it's both emotionally and financially draining.
I know a couple who's gone through it but I don't think they'd wish same for their enemies.

They did invitro genetic testing and had to abort the foetus each time the result is SS

But there's also the option of IVF with Genetic testing.
This can be emotionally draining, especially for the woman.

Apart from the cases of previous abortion without the injection, the injection is effective. It's less than 30k for the injection.

So what’s the implication of the above? From responses, it’d seem that a lot of people are unaware of this.

When importers bring in goods from China, and the price drop, maybe bc market is flooded with many goods, wise importers withdraw their goods, until market comes back to normal.

Putting ur car for 20k means car owner is running at lost.

The only reason a car owner will continue allowing his car to go for 20k is because he need food on his table, but business wise, doesn't make sense

Let’s assume a scenario where as the car owner, your driver/partner delivered N30k weekly, and he’s been reliable and steady. He also takes good care of your car.

Fast forward to corona era, same driver offers you N20k weekly to keep using your car. Are you saying it’s better to park the car indefinitely?

Your best bet will be going in through ikorodu, the lekki to epe exp way is terribly bad.

The craters wey dey that road fit break motor into 2.

Go through ikorodu- sabo- itamaga- imota- itoikin-epe, though it's a quite road with very minimal traffic but your car go pray for you than if you went in through lekki

I was at Agbowa 3 weeks ago, went to Epe from there and back to Lagos through Lekki/epe express. I can categorically tell you that one route is not better than the other.

I can bet that if you did not have the original DL, they would have taken your car to their premises

You would win that bet. Once had a rider that didn’t use his belt. FRSC stopped us, billed me and seized my DL. While there, I noticed others with various offenses without their original DLs had their cars impounded.

Hope the person can pay sha. Thats a very far place. More or less going to Epe.

15k offer.

Is it drop off only or to and fro?

Place is quite far and remote. The only sensible thing is to look at it as a return trip. Assuming the return leg of the trip ends at Maryland (at least you’d be back to civilization), total distance should be about 100km. Trip shouldn’t exceed 4hrs, 5hrs at most.

N10k seems to be a fair deal.

The problem is the car drop off at gate. People usually want to come in and wait which we won't be allowing.

If you have a waiting area, I’m assuming you do, and it’s strictly by appointment, crowd can easily be controlled.

If it’s strictly by appointment, then anyone coming should already be informed about that, and appointment subsequently confirmed upon agreeing to the terms.

Although this would come with challenges, especially if your customers are coming for quick fixes, like oil change,etc.

I haven’t been to the shop, no idea what your setup looks like. Also, I think I previously read somewhere (not sure) that your operate a drop off and pickup later model. If this is really the case, then the change isn’t too drastic.

We're thinking we will do it by appointment only with car drop off at the gate. WYT?

Sounds like a good plan, especially if you’re not running at 100%.

Funny experience today.

Went out on a personal runs today (Uber-ing on hold til further notice). Was in a bit of traffic with lastma people around. One of them jumped in front of my car and snapped a picture, I smiled. I never drive with incomplete papers and I adhere to traffic laws as much as I can because I don’t give these thieves in uniform a dime.

He say make I park, I park, rolled down a bit and asked him what the problem was. Guy said I no use face mask. I asked him why I need one, driving alone in my car with my AC on? Nigger said it’s the law. I showed him my mask and sanitizer; explained to him that I’m keeping safe and that I always wear it when I leave the car.

After causing plenty traffic with my refusal to open my door or come down, the next thing I knew, tow truck magically reach my front, before I could react, car was clamped and towed to their office.

All my tires were deflated immediately. I just chilled, sat down somewhere and was watching. Overheard them saying I Dey form stubborn, say dem go show me.

I noticed a chap there, seemed pretty cool and from my observation, probably the ranking officer there (everybody was referring to him as commander), I approached him and explained everything to him. He said he couldn’t help until the arresting officer comes back (the guy don go back go raid). I assumed he was playing me and reluctantly called someone I know who usually brings a rocket launcher to a knife fight. My contact got all the necessary details from me and said I should relax, she go call me back.

Before her call, arresting officer came back and to my surprise, the “commander” guy ordered him to to release my car after making sure my tires were pumped back.

As I was leaving, my contact called me back, I told her I’d been released. She say she no gree oo, that I must give her name of person wey arrest me, that the person needs to be dealt with. Told her it wasn’t necessary as I don dey go, she refused oo. Said I either go get a name for her or next time I call her she won’t respond.

I jejely gave her the guy’s name.

This may be accurate. Like I also said before, their policies are generally the same world over with maybe a few exceptions elsewhere. I will appreciate if you show me that of Italy, Spain, France and the rest of America. And Uber had a long legal battle/tussle in the UK with both government and drivers sometime back that they were on the verge of quitting, if you followed events. This may be part of the concessions made.

This feature in California was deliberate on the part of uber, to circumvent the law that says they have to prove that drivers are truly independent contractors, else uber must treat them as employees. By letting drivers become selective with ride acceptance, uber is in effect saying drivers can choose whether to take trips or not, without being penalized. So if you’re under the impression that it’s because uber cares more about drivers over there than here, THINK AGAIN. It was just self preservation.

Sorry boss..

Oga Legalwealth sir, please how feasible is it to make 20% weekly trading forex?

Very possible

Also very possible to lose way more than that.

20% ROI is what logical people aim to meet yearly.

This ridiculous target is why lots of fingers get burned.

You should never look at any form of investment as a “get rich quick” scheme, and no matter what anyone tells you. 20% weekly ROI = get rich quick.

Even MMM no give 20% weekly ROI
