It won't stop because gender bias will always make people like you shy away from calling out the real culprits just to focus on the victims. Just see the way you phrased as if it's the ladies are to be blamed thr for the choices of the men who kidnap people. Or shouldn't you be telling the men to fear God? Nawa o.

PoliticsRe: Why Has Nairaland Reduce Itself by etrange: 6:53pm On Jul 25, 2022
Lol... you guys just do not know how co-exist. Y'all feel everyone must align with your preferences. How does BBN stop anyone from voting? The show doesn't have as much fans as football, yet you didn't say this during all the football tournaments that led to and still lead to multiple football threads on the front page. But once it is BBN, you remember Nigerian issues and how NL has reduced itself.

Well, liking it or not, NL is a business enterprise and as such, would jump on any trend that has the potential to bring in more traffic. It is a public forum with multiple sections and most of these sections have equal rights to the front page. Just pick what you like and leave others to pick thiers. Only a foolish manager would leave the opportunity to make money just to satisfy those who don't know how to live and let live.

As I said before, am speaking from experience (I have seen it many times). His current portal skills can be acquired with in 1 to 2 weeks with someone with an average IQ.

If 3 staff resign in a HOTEL at once, the managers must be stressed. One bad tomato/apple can rotten a whole basket of tomatoes/apples

I am speaking for the health of the organization and not welfare of an unsatisfied former employee.

So as a serious person, you want a staff can leave anytime?
Of course, individual cases are different and it mostly depends on the circumstances surrounding his exit and how long he stayed away. However, I have been on both sides of the divide myself and one thing I know for sure is that most times, employers don't know who's gonna leave until it happens and leaves them stranded. By letting such an employee back on probation, they can get his skills properly dispersed and be more prepared for the exit. The management has nothing to lose. Remember he was a bad tomato before he left. If he couldn't convince others to join then, you think he's in s better position to do that after they've seen him fail? Re-hiring is the employer's way of telling other employees that life isn't necessarily better out there. Besides, employees stay in contact with past colleagues. So a past colleague doing well out there is more likely to take your worker than a returnee.

During the exit process in formal organizations, there is field called "eligible for rehire". Different systems call it different things. This is where it is indicated if the employee should be welcomed back if he decides to come back. If it's a job that supports multiple positions at a time, the answer is 'yes' most of the time. I know cause I've analyzed HR data for multiple organizations.

You take things too seriously
"You take things too seriously" is exactly what people say when the faults in their argument are made obvious. Why not tell that to people who jump from thread to thread calling out BBN workers as if it's thier life calling to do that? They aren't being serious, but one counter argument is already too serious. Please.

They are better ways to describe bad behaviors than saying that someone's child isn't behaving like a human being. You're indirectly telling the parents that gave birth to something that's not human like. Wow.

From experience, the MD would regret it because he would leave again and this time, he would leave with 2+ other employees.
It is condition that brought him back, so within a month of returning, the old resentment would come back.
Employees will always leave. It's a natural part of the labour market. Your duty is to keep your top skills as long as possible and if one decides to return after leaving for a while, it'll be in your best interest to keep him and use him as long as you can. The fact that he'll leave again shouldn't stop any smart MD from utilizing his skills while he's available because at the end of the day, most people will still leave anyway. As for other employees, if he didn't take them while leaving the first time, you think he'll be in a better position to convince them after they've seen how he failed out there? The truth is, employees stay connected with ex colleagues. So even if he doesn't come back, he could still take them from the outside by sharing his new life with them. So bringing an employee back is a way of telling those on ground that life isn't necessarily better outside the organization, and that could potentially change the mind of those planning to leave.

PO and DATITI

Is more important than all this news

Don’t distract us with your nose Ebuka
You're the one allowing yourself to be ditracted by coming to comment on this. This distraction theory is so baseless. The show does not stop anyone from voting or talking about politics. The show does not have as much fans as football, yet all the football leagues don't stop people from discussing politics. We see football threads everyday on FP. The football threads in the sports section are some of the longest in the history of Nairaland and they keep growing even as the country prepares for the apex election. And no one is complaining, nobody comes to the football threads to spam them. But as soon as BBN starts, all of you will start talking about how it's a distraction.

You guys are just unnecessarily biased. Nigerians just don't know how to live and let live. Everyone believes they are superior to others for having a different taste and y'all go out of your way to call out those that don't share your interests or beliefs. That's the reason behind the high level of divisiveness in the country. Do you and let others be.

The director would be making a big mistake to accept you back but you can try your luck. Next time, don't let go of something until you have something tangible you have grabbed.

The market has told you for now, your skills level is 20k. Take your 20k job and improve your skills or do a side hustle until you undisputedly have aquire 100k+ naira worth of skills.
Hmm... but why would it a mistake to accept him back if he was really skilled at thier jobs? It's only in the 1990's that employees that quit thier jobs were considered as enemies or ungrateful. Today, it's normal for people to move and it's nothing to fight about. If you're good at your job, your employer would even tell you at the point of leaving not to hesitate to come back if you ever need to. All my past employers said that to me. I know a handful of people that returned to their former employers.

If it's a professional position and you were idle after you left the organization, your number of years at that level will start counting from wherever you were before leaving. Even if you were working somewhere else during that period, the total number of years you spent outside the organization will be reduced a bit when considering your new placement. This implies that people that started with you might end up being your senior. It's then up to you to decide if that's a deal breaker or not

What was she doing for you before the show started? What exactly did the show distract her from? A tweet about the show is distraction but a long ass thread on EPL is normal.

Where in my post I defend such men? If you'd read carefully and not in hurry to defend her, I doubt you come to that conclusion.

I'm all for calling out and dealing decisively with rapists, but what shes doing is NOT the way to go about it.

Did you see her mention anything about the unfortunate victim? How about discussing practical ways of solving the rape issue?

Or labelling ALL MEN RAPISTS is the best way to deal with this issue, abi? shocked

She's not interested in tackling rape, it's ALL about HER and her agenda. Notice all attention shifts from the issue at hand and focuses on her.

Fine, men call women names on this forum, so pray, how about opening a fresh thread and call men names as well?

No, apparently it's better to trawl the internet, seek out rape stories and use such to catch cruise.

I repeat: It is only a desperately and violently wicked, demonic soul, one in same class as rapists, that would use the horrific misfortune of others to catch cruise.

My last word on this. Happy Sunday and have a nice day, sir.
Again, why are you making this about the OP? Like I said, my comment to the guy isn't about what OP is doing. I did not even disagree with him calling out the OP. In fact, my first line started with "I agree". So again, stop making it as if OP's generalization is the bone of contention here. You're creating a post that will make it easy for you to score points, but unfortunately that's not argument here. I'm a man and I'm not a rapist, there's no way I'd support anyone that calls me one. I only said it would be great if he could also make efforts to remind people that it's not all women when they going typing all those disparaging stuff against women. We see people type these unprintable things about women on this platform. So I'm calling on a non generalist like the guy to also remind those people that it's not all women. This only balances things out? Why do you have issues with it? Again, if you see any problem with what I said to him, then you are not any different from the OP you are criticizing.

To y'all saying the show will take people's attention away from politics, y'all just don't know how to live and let live. This show doesn't attract as much attention as football, yet that doesn't stop political discussions. The front page still get filled up with football updates and everyone enjoys it in peace. So let the fans of BBN enjoy thier show in peace. The country is already hard enough, let people relax in whatever way they like. You aren't superior to anyone for not liking the show.

Stop being silly. Rape is serious despicable crime against humanity. It's not one to use to catch cruise with, like the psychopathic OP is fond of.

Shes using the misfortune of the unfortunate victim to 'get back at guys'. That's the height of demonic wickedness.
I have no business with the OP and really do not see how this your post relates to mine.

Whatever the OP is doing does not change anything I said to that guy which is that he should also make efforts to remind people that it's not all women when they going typing all those disparaging stuff against women. That rape is serious is not disputable. It was never the contention and it has no bearing on the message above. So what exactly are you saying? When a woman set her husband on fire the other day, did Nairaland people not call women all sorts of name? Is death not serious too?

If you see my comment as being silly, then you're not different from the OP. You are not sympathetic to the ordeals of rape victims, you just feel the need to attack me cause you saw my post as an attack, and it's quiet pathetic that you'd feel it's necessary to defend men who type these things.

CrimeRe: Dog Die On Top Woman by etrange: 12:14am On Jul 23, 2022
OP, it's a bitch, not a woman.

Meanwhile, dog breeders, please learn from this. Mating takes a lot of energy. Space out breeding periods (yes, even for the male dogs). And during a breeding period, ensure the dogs are properly fed. Do not administer enhancers. Finally, occasionally separate the dogs if you observe abnormal mating behaviors. And, if you aren't breeding, neuter your dog.

RIP to the dog.
