Career / Re: Fustrated With My Career What Should I Do by elewedu(m): 2:30pm On Nov 12, 2016 |
Op it is unfortunate most people here can not relate with your predicament. A lot of people are still struggling to get a fairly paying jobs, and would do anything just to make ends meet. For you it is self worth and recognition, which is because you have scaled some levels in maslows hierarchy. I was in your shoes a few years ago, seriously frustrated even with a fair pay (not up to yours though). After much struggle I took a job which I had passion for, I thought it was going to come with a pay cut, fortunately I got a 100% increment on a job I was ready to take a cut for...Two years down, I am again looking forward to a more challenging role but this time with better pay. My advice to you is to keep trying, talk to people who care to listen about your passion, keep applying, and try pro bono too...it is well 3 Likes |
Car Talk / Re: Maintenance Tips On Cars. by elewedu(m): 11:00pm On Oct 28, 2016 |
I am an advocate of professionalism in every of our dealings, and that is why I come here tonight to appreciate one of our own who has taken his craft to the very high level of professionalism. I have been to Gazzuzz garage twice, once for overheating issue and then for ac repairs. To say gazzuzz is a thorough bred professional is underestimating the value I got dealing with him. Gazuzz raises the bar...I went to gazuzz for ac repair, I got that and more. He went the extramile to tune up my engine. I got my car washed, my engined washed and resprayed, that is what I call customer service per excellence. I usually take my time before going to gazuzz workshop because he would never cut corners to give u the best, hence u will be made to use the best available part at a cost, but is the cost incurred worth it..yes it is more than worth it, afterall whatever has value should be paid for. Meanwhile I want to use this opportunity to solicit for our home grown engineers, lets help them by paying the true value of their effort, they also have bills to pay. Thanks gazuzz..I am the pontiac guy 2 Likes |

Oche211:Definition of poverty is a thought provoking one...for me I think my definition has evolved over time. It used to be basic needs, food shelter and housing, I grew with lack in most of this most especially food. Now transportation, security, power, ability to pay school fees for children additional necessities, that I think could quickly define my quality of life? If one is on a fairly good pay, one may be able to sustain this. At the loss of income, it could be a challenge...how can one sustainably finance this basic needs? 1 Like |
Family / At What Point Of Wealth Accumulation Can One Be Said To Have Scaled Poverty by elewedu(m): 6:52pm On Jul 31, 2016 |
One topic that consistently resurfaced during my quite time is having a clear understanding of the state where one can be considered to have completely scaled poverty. I acknowledge the fact that God is the ultimate provider and sustenance of wealth, but as human I believe one can get to a level when one can confidently say one has scaled poverty and I mean sustainably. This thought is a result of my very humble background where I had direct contact with poverty and nothingness of survival, coupled with the fact that I have grown into being able to finance living in a very upper middle class neighbourhood. I continue to ask myself day in day out if I really can sustain the live am living and how? My experience in life (in and out of work place) has also influenced this question am asking. I have seen mid and senior managers who have been asked to leave my organisation, and suddenly decelerate into poverty to extent that they can not take care of their basic need. At what point can one say one can sustain the life one is presently living. This question goes to all of us who are either in paid employment or self employed. Experience and matured response please? 1 Like 1 Share |

I am a customer insight analyst for ny company, and I can totally connect with the importance of data. I must confess, I truly enjoy my line of career, being the go to guy in the office. I have been fortunate to have a broader understanding of the business compare to the next guy due to the volume of information that passes through my desk. This applies to most analyst within my organisation. On flip side, it is a very challenging job that demands a high degree precision, as the outcome of analysis if right or wrong can either make or mar the decision taken. Source of data can also be a pain, if one is unlucky to be in an organisation without a robust enterprise system for data collection, one could be consistently frustrated. Above all, it is a very interesting career line. 1 Like |

Education / Re: First Bank Simple Equation That 87% Could Not Solve. by elewedu(m): 5:30pm On Aug 10, 2015 |
I would solve this question when I was in Primary 4......I am surprised there is a back and forth over this simple arithmetic. And employers have stooped to this level just to accommodate the manifestation of the frail educational foundation most of us went through. Well, the more job seekers who can not solve this basic question, the better for the few who can. 1 Like |

Car Talk / Re: 100k Salary Enough To Get A Car? by elewedu(m): 7:25pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
I bought my first car while earning arround 100k.I must confess it didnt change much in my spending pattern,since I bought a very small one (toyota paseo) with extremely low fuel consumption and maintenance cost. I am on my second car now, a bigger one, but very reliable one again. I spend a little above 2k weekly, and I have not had to do any major maintenance for the past 9months. My advice is that, at that level of income, the best that can happen to you is to buy a very reliable one with very low fuel consumption. Beware of cars with expensive parts and crazy fuel consumption...and finally beware of Niger used, dont be penny wise pounds foolish. Cheers 8 Likes |
Nairaland / General / Re: Countdown To 2015: How Was 2014 And What Are Your Expectations For 2015? by elewedu(m): 8:44am On Dec 31, 2014 |
For me 2014, remains a true representation of the pendulum of life:-right, left and centre so it swings. I had my fair share of challenges, struggles, and breakthroughs. Having said this, I must appreciate the fact that this year, the breakthoughs succeeded in cheapening the challenges. The year gave me a gift of transition, an unprecendented lift in my career. I got my prize after paying my dues for four long years. For my family, we enjoyed an overwhelming grace of God in our health, his banner was over us all through the year.Alihamdulilah is not sufficient for my appreciation ......2015, again Baba God take charge, go before me and level my mountains. |
