Politics / Re: Minimum Wage Not General Salary Review, FG Tells Labour by engrJAAB: 10:36am On Oct 11, 2019
Personally, I stand with the FG in this issue. Consequential adjustment as proposed by the FG is to increase the wages by about 10 - 40% depending on the grades. This is what the FG can afford economically speaking. BUT labour is asking for 67% increase across board. Let us be sincere, it wont work. Why are they not shouting on the private companies to do same. Private companies simply increased the minimum wage without any salary raise or adjustment.
Politics / Re: Seun Onigbinde Resignation: Oby Ezekwesil, Banky W, Others React by engrJAAB: 3:01pm On Sep 16, 2019
So so dissappointed. Is this how Nigeria will get better?

You sit out there, see the rot, talk talk talk. Now you are called to come and do the right thing, make things better, but you chicken out!
You therefore have no grounds to talk anymore seeing you were given the chance to correct things.

This is exactly how the youths have been clamoring for change, but all is mere talk. They cant walk the talk.

Alas, Seye Onigbinde is a coward.

If you meant well, you will start the Job. If things go sour because of inner politics etc, you resign. Then tell the whole world the truth. But now, you didnt even take the first step, how can you now talk accurately of inside dealings? You cant, cos you lost the chance to know the inner workings.

Anyway, there are other Nigerians with better capabilities in same area.

Career / Re: Phd IN Germany VS Good Job In NIGERIA by engrJAAB: 3:49pm On May 07, 2019
ETHIX:
Pls let him go, he should not fear, things will definitely work out for him. What if after 6 months they retrench him ?

Our doubts are traitors and make us lose the good we often may win by fearing to attempt

True, you can never tell what will happen....Yes, his doubts and language challenge are what is confusing him. How easy / difficult is it to learn the language

Anyone with experience here?

Career / Phd IN Germany VS Good Job In NIGERIA by engrJAAB: 8:27am On May 07, 2019
Please a friend needs your advice as he needs to make a decision as soon as possible.

He is an Engineer with a a private company earning about N450K / month. He got a fed govt scholarship to do his PhD in Germany. He is confused on what to do.

The PhD will require him to learn the language as quickly as possible to make his learning better. He also has to move with his family as he does not want to stay far from his family.

He is more concerned about prospects after the PhD hence his confusion.

jacobnel:

If the person love lecturing job and the PhD has options for the Person to live and work there I will advice him to go for the PhD,but if that is not the case he can continue his work here with the private firm since the pay is better.


Germany is a bit liberal in staying once you can get a job. He is not keen on lecturing, he says he can do anything "lecturing or private work" as long as it pays the bills

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Got Two Job Offers Today. Please Advice On Which To Choose by engrJAAB: 7:41am On May 07, 2019
NO BIG DEAL BRO...Congratulations, everything na double double.

Go and resume at the private JOB first. The fed govt job just says your name is on the list, not that you should come and resume. It might still take months before you will called for verifications and resumption.

So go ahead to start the PRIVATE job. When it is time, simply give them the two weeks notice and leave.

Politics / Urgent ! Help A Friend!! Career Decision Confusion by engrJAAB: 3:38pm On Nov 05, 2018
My friend is very excited but confused right now. He is a high flyer and intelligent guy. He needs to make a decision between scholarships, admission and jobs.
He is a young man with a simple family (a wife & kid). He has a BSc and MSc in the engineering field. He is very open to working in the academia or industry.

See the breakdown of choices below. Pls advice him sincerely like a friend/brother. I will also read through and give him my opinion too.

1. Secured a Fed govt scholarship for PhD study in germany (Due 2019). Currently still seeking admission/approval from supervisors.

2. Already received 2 admission offers from Univ in Australia but no scholarship. Currently applying for an Australian govt scholarship. (Due 2019)

3. Received a job offer from a multinational oil servicing company (Salary like 450k). To reply before October 2018 ending.

He has a moral constraint in taking the Job offer if he intends to leave in maybe 6 months for his studies. Should he forget about PhD and take the offer to grow and be a top professional or leave the job and focus on his studies.

I am sure you see his confusion now. Abeeggiii make una help am oooo.

Education / Re: ASUU Vs FG: Six(6) ASUU Demands (2017 Memorandum Of Action) That Led To Indefini by engrJAAB: 12:45pm On Nov 05, 2018
From these demands, ONLY NO 1 is the real demand. they want their money. simple! They are not interedted in education funding!

Imagine saying fed govt should pay university staff schhol salaries, nonsense. If the university cant manage the school they should hands off and give it up.

Car Talk / Re: 10 Of The Most Famous Luxury Car Bonnet Ornaments Or Mascots Of All Time by engrJAAB: 11:24am On Nov 05, 2018
Automotive1:


Most of these iconic ornaments are rapidly disappering or being replaced by the badges because of pedestrian safety .

To protect pedestrian safety, safety laws on “the external projections of motor vehicles” ( i.e. the ornaments or mascot ) in the early 1990s stated that mascots and ornaments should retract (in the case of Rolls-Royce and Bentley) , bend or break off (Mercedes-Benz) when subject to certain force.


PLEASE, HOW DO THESE BONNET MASCOTS AFFECT PEDESTRIAN SAFETY

Rosalina1232:
It’s a very important decision your friend is facing right now, life-changing one. I don’t think it’s possible give him advice regarding which choice is better. When I was choosing a place to work, I tried to imagine the situation as I’m already working there. Then I understood what I would like more and what I want more It’s how I started to work as a writer for [EduBirdie and don’t have a single regret, so I believe it’s a great approach to make career choices.

Seems we are all confused together
