Callmed:
It's an interview.

All the words that come out of your mouth should sound as formal as possible. angry

I know that now. I'll be more cautious of what I say next time.

Stuff like that is just like saying etc. Back then in school etc has saved student a lot of trouble, especially when you know you're supposed to list 5 items and you only know or remember 2. Etc, or and so on, is the "legal" way of saying stuff like that in an interview.

Next time use etc instead of stuff like that

Thanks man

You honestly should have said Good Afternoon. That is more appropriate and formal.

And "stuff like that" passes the message that you're being flippant with the interview.

About the rest, he's an elderly man. That's how they talk

Jobs/Vacancies / My Interview Experience by Ellegacy(m): 3:27pm On Aug 14, 2021
So I attended an interview this morning, I applied as a farm manager. It's for a big farm that also has an hotel. We were called to present ourselves at their hotel at 8am in the morning prompt.

I got their around 7:50am. I was ushered in by the security. I have to say, it's an A+ hotel. Exquisite, full of luxery. I met people who came for the interview at their open bar. We were up to 20 in number.

I won't say I did not get intimidated. I mean their are young guys at the hotel, swimming, playing basketball, working out at the gym and they're all young. Like under 30. I'm the youngest out of the applicant I saw on seat btw.

The interview did not start until around 10am. We were kept sitted at the open bar doing nothing. The sun was out today so it wasn't pleasant sitting down at all.

It eventually got to my turn around 12:30pm. Yeah, it means I won't catch my beloveth man united at their first game of the season. Gosh! I came in, and the young chubby beautiful lady helping the elderly man conducting the interview codely signaled me to greet. Gosh, were are my manners.

I said "well done sir".

I'll refer him to as the Man henceforth.

The Man said what do I mean by 'well done sir'.
Still standing I replied 'I saw that you're busy with works on your desk and I have to greet.'

He replied "Am I the one that gave him work to do that I have to say well done? Don't you know well done is after a work given has being done and the giver has to complement on a job well done? You don't say well done in an interview. It's only my boss that can tell me well done. I know you don't know that, but now you know. Next time say Good Afternoon. You can have your seat"

When did well done become an insult??

Of the many interview questions that I was asked and I couldn't answer perfectly, one comes to mind.

I was asked to talked about what I know about Palm Kannel. I said we could get a lot from Palm kanel, we could make Palm oil from the kanel,and the by product of the kanel can be meshed and used as fuel and stuff like that

"Stuff like that?" The Man said.
"Stuff like that"
"Are you a Yahoo boy"?
"No" I replied. (I'm just 27 btw, I have a forever young look).
"Stuff like that? You don't say that in an interview. It's grammatically correct, but it's wrong to say in an interview. Who are you? You just say stuff like that?"

I felt I committed a war crime to be tagged yahoo boy cos I said 'stuff like that in an interview'.

He said good day.

Nairaland / General / Re: Have You Ever Been Accused Wrongly? Share Your Experience! by Ellegacy(m): 9:33pm On Jul 14, 2021
1. I have a black lip. Have being falsely accused, even by my parents that I smoked which I wasn't then. Now I do as a result of constant falsely accusation. Your lips are black, do you smoke? #Black_lips_matter

2. I once live in a small hostel of 4 rooms. We were all student back then. Around 2011 during my ND days. We normally drop the front gate key to a neighbor behind our house. That unfortunate day, I came early to the hostel first. I opened the door and went straight to my room, tired. Not knowing a room has being bulged and 5k was stolen. The owner came back and he accused me, cos I was the one that opened the front gate first. He ransacked my room, called student man o war on me. The man o war came, whisked me away, sized my phone, and maltreated me in their building. I told my parents and I got connect to the Dean of students Affairs. He called them to order and asked if they had any evidence except I came to the hostel first and open the gate first, which wasn't the first time. They had none. He demanded the man o war to apologized to me and the guy was told to look for other means to find his money or challenge his roommates who knew about his money initially

The next week, I saw him doing charm. Nothing happened to me

The US is trying to bully Russia and I think they are embarrassed that they keep failing. After all the Sanctions didn't work they want to try the physical way. The us should stop their intimidation show of force.

Trump tried it with China because he thought he could crumble the Chinese economy.

Na Just bad belle.

I believed the Russians can't withstand USA in war if nuclear weapons are out of the options. But since Russia has the most nuclear weapons, they are a country to be reckoned with.

This is what most people don't understand, this is not the middle ages. Albert Einstein and co ruined the world when they made atomic bombs. We are all living in fear of a nuclear war.

A friend of mine do lament why human bring could be so cruel to develop a bomb so powerful that it's considered the most destructive weapons in the world that just one nuclear bomb could destroy an entire city.

Russian can't defeat the US. The US can't defect Russian. Both countries are sane enough to avoid physical confrontation.

That will be the end of Developed nations

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) / Re: Major European Football Clubs Announce Formation Of Super League by Ellegacy(m): 5:04am On Apr 19, 2021
They are their too make money. Football to me is about passion. And the fan make up for the passion. With the announcement of the new league, I think it's time for me to bow out of watching football.

Making more money for already rich players is what have being planning to stop. I think here is the perfect opportunity for me to.

I feel you. I never knew about shenanigans going on in Mami and that security post also behind the field. Although their was a time during mediation it was mentioned that some Corpers were found on the school field after night out. It was swept under the cover.

Obubra was no fun to me.

I camped in Obubra 2018 Batch B, Cross River State.



I never thought of sex or having a camp boo.


All that was on my mind was how I was going to relocate to Lagos.


The social night was even zero as I engaged in camp activities, I was one of the female lead for the lecture committee( so the most night I was always busy typing, editing, and collating reports)

The mosque was my second room. Either I was sleeping or praying.

I thank God for the kind of home and the training I gave myself.

God forbid bad thing shocked

I served in Obubra likewise, 2019 B1. That camp was wack. Red soil everywhere. The carnival was held in the morning/afternoon. Just praying it should end.

I literally didn't enjoyed the camp but my hostel made it fun.

I relocated back to Oyo. I was so happy.
