I am typing this piece with Disappointment, I least expected this.
So, I finished My Youth Service with Joy and gladness, and was back home till I get a good paying job, since I studied Metalogy/Civil Enginnering in the University..
As a Sure guy with Parly (Certificate) I was very much confident of getting a nice paying job, So I started my Journey as a Job Seeker..
1st year, 2nd year, went by, and still nothing, So i decided to digress into something else for the meantime, everyone knows how Nigeria is .
I decided to pop into Teaching, atleast 'head still fresh' I got this job, in a Primary school, the Headmistress and I agreed on a 30,000 monthly salary... I was happy though .
I resumed work, truth be told it was fun, but Sour at last.. I never knew this Madam was in for a trick..
Things were going well oo! Firstly, Late to work a day - 5,000 deducted Not being audible enough in the classroom - 3,000 deduction Pupils not able to grab the day's work - 2,000 deducted Failure to mark pupils note/ asessment/ assignment - 5,000 deduction Few pupils failing Test, Oral questions and Examination - 5,000 deduction....
I was called for my salary, then Mrs. Headmistress brought out my file of report and defects , i was shocked when she tabled a sum of 15,000 naira as my salary for the month and Said "Welcome" I couldn't Fanthom where I was but i gathered myself and said "Thank you ma"
According to my fellow staff, this was the hidden principle in The School, people's salaries were deducted to nothing ...
I went home and slept throughout the week ..
Now Do you think I continue in this Mess or Venture into frying of akara and become self employed..
what are your thoughts, help a brother!!
I will advise you go into akara business in the morning then in the evening you think of roasting fish barbecue or chicken and noddles
That means you have morning and evening street foods
Food is the only thing that is steady in business this hard times
But you will need extra hands to assist you to run both day and night
You can add specialy prepared raw pap that is well spiced with ginger and cloves so that when they buy akara they buy pap, go home and prepare it
MasterJayJay: Until he pauses sex for one year so you can heal. Most of you woman do not understand the psychological effect of such sight on some men.
Your worth as a woman has nothing to do with your genitals.
So a wife struggling with fertility issues doesn't deserve to be treated well by her husband?
Bradford111: So I just want your guys' thoughts on this I'm 20 years old and in a relationship with an 18-year-old lady she will soon be going to the university while for me it will be next year we do love each other but I'm just thinking about our relationship won't lead to marriage as there are many hurdles on the way but she told me she loves me more than the challenges ahead of us so what's your thoughts?!
You are just twenty years You are thinking of a marriage relationship
You just want to truncate your life at this early stage with no experience at all
Demigod22: It's about principles, stories of great men and how they outsmarted their opponents, people like Niccolo Machaevelli, how to take advantage of situations and people, laws about serving people, relating with people, becoming superior over people.
I read that book when I was in SS1, and it really affected my life negatively. I was exposed to books early in life, and books like that, power of seduction, Angels and Demon and some satanic books, played on my psychology and I am really messed up. You have to be mature before reading such books.
Demigod22: I may be considered indomie generation or not, depending on who is doing the consideration, since I am in my mid twenties.
But reading books generally is my hobby, so I have read it too. I read it along Harry Potter, Angels and Demon, The Black Boy, Lonely Londeners, 48 laws of power, Aeodipus Rex, and many classical novels.
Pls tell me more about this 48 Laws of power, us like the author us talking about using people to get what you want and also using reverse psychology on people
Keeff: no achievement whatsoever sir but I really do not lack a thing......I neither have a house nor a car but I have some little investments around that fetches me money
Ma'am pls not sir
Is alright Keep up the investment that's the only live wire that you have for now
KVN1: That's my shoe you are on Bro,but let us not be discouraged. Let us just keep grinding. meanwhile,it is my birthday today? Some should ask for my account number
I am still wondering why you left school at final year
You don't have passion for the course but you struggled to final year
Why not try harder, finish the level and sort out yourself
SporaD8: You've no idea how the man's mind work trust me! @bolded is the major reason why men keep side chicks. After watching her go through that much pain, to even touch/correct her, much less fv.ck her will be a huge turn off. He'd start keeping late night to avoid confrontation while the woman will feel starve of attention. You better keep your man away from the labour room for your own good!
Women are no longer afraid of their husband's having side chicks
Oluwatoyink: Good day everyone, I'm 21 and because of ASUU strike has been doing some jobs which I earn little from.
I planned to save them to buy a new phone and the likes.
But if a bill arises like NEPA bill, Gas filling etc and no one is around, I usually foot the bill.
This had made me spend unplanned.
As I cannot ask my parents for a refund , what do I do?
You are trying to save for your personal effects You end up spending on house matters
What about your parents, are they tired of doing that or you want to assist them
It's too early for you to start picking up bills while in school and your parents can still foot those bills
I think you should save for your resumption and plan to get personal effects that you may need so that you don't ask your parents for money when going back to school
Meanwhile, you are doing good by practicing how to take responsibilities
Irupetepete: My kids are being trained in an hotel.. Their mum works in an hotel and he takes the kids there to sleep, then he dress them up from their to school...
The kids went for holiday with my mom and you can't believe a 6 yrs old already knows how to loose a door key with a knife... She doesn't have time for the kids and I, though am not really financially stable, I can still cater for them...
I need advice how I can take care of 2kids age 6 and 4, a boy and a girl...
I go out to work around 8 and come back around 6:30pm but I can always close around 6 cos it is my business...
For single fathers taking care of their kids, I need tips pls... Sometimes, they not staying with me and knowing the condition those kids are breaks my heart... I stay in a 2bedroom apartment with every amenities intact....
Pls help a brother.... I love my kids.... I and their mom have irreconcilable diffs...
Since you can afford to live in a two bedroom flat, that means you can afford to take care of these kids, but you neglected them and left them with their mum
What else do you expect her to do with those kids
If you hate their mum then you have to do something about the kids
You can discuss with their mother what type of business she can do so that you set her up and get a room apartment for her
It's actually a shame that you are still alive and your children are squatting in a hotel
Do you know that these children are already exposed to the other bad side of life
Well I don't have any blame for their mother for doing what she did, that was the only way she can make a living and keep them going to school and feeding them
For her to be living in the hotel and works their, don't ask me if her job includes short time for quick service
I don't know what she diesytjeir as services and how she operates there
What I care is you getting accommodation for them and let them have a living
Pay their school fees and provide the much or little you can
Visit them often, spend time with them and play with them especially the children
Alternatively, negotiate with their mum to take the children to your mum and she is free to visit them as much as she wants
That too will be a relieve on her
As far as am concerned, you are not part of this children life Untill you put them in a decent home and place and take charge of their education
Welkincollege: There's this school I previously worked as a Teacher about a year ago. I was asked to stop work because of disagreement I had with the Vice Principal. Now, a year later, the school is recruiting for Teachers with their vacant positions advertised on a banner and I am currently looking for similar positions to apply for.
My question is, will it make sense to go back to that same school and apply for a job?
I don't think so
You already have a stain with them
How are you sure you won't argue again
Your going back to them means you couldn't get any after all these while
I will try to make this missive brief. In 200level, I dropped out of school because I took in. The guy I was pregnant for later died few months later.
I stayed with my mum and eventually gave birth and I nursed my boy and provided for him because my parent were financially handicapped.
Few months later, I started a fruit biz. It eventually flourish and I was able to get an apartment and I started providing for myself and my boy.
Although biz is not as flourishing as before due to the present nation's predicament. Not much sales. Things are getting a bit bad.
Now, I'm at the crossroad. I really want to pick a school of nursing form but my boy and biz is stunting my plans. I'm confuse. Please, what will you advise me to do?
Should I look for the form or focus on my biz?
This point in your life is where you need your parents most
Talk with them about keeping your child with them to start your nursing career
That's the way your mind will be at rest while you are in school
Please men have mercies for your wives. My colleague's husband doesn't eat frozen foods, meaning she cooks every day for him. She closes from work by 5 and gets home before 7, she goes to market everyday to cook soup for the husband.
I really do feel for her, to the extent the man threatening her to resign so she can take care of him (He earns below 50k and she earns much more).
She says when a soup/stew/ other meals reaches 24 hours the husband cannot eat them again.
I feel for her seeing her in the morning at work looking stress out
So base on the salary both of them receives, The man earns less than her, yet he doesn't eat frozen foods
I can understand that she is basically the one feeding him and the family and pay most bills
Then back to the topic So she cooks every day and am sure from her pocket
That man salary is not even enough to feed the family assuming they preserve foods in the freezer not to talk much about cooking daily and using gas, even if it's firewood
Nonsense
Let her continue to be submisive and do the job of obedient wife
Kokorokomaster1: When she was busy, lying to me and shipping my, she didn't know that, what she was doing is an act of wickedness, when it's my turn to do na you are saying what of if it was my daughter, my daughter will not behaves like this, if you don't love a man just let him know and he will go, even the Bible says you will rep what ever you soul
You still dey learn You never see anything
Continue, and woman never do you wotowoto
Ordinary theory you dey cry
If them use you for practical, you go humble yourself
jeromestarks: I moved into this new apartment recently and I found the toilet sink so stained. I am not really comfortable with it. Please what can I use to easily remove these stains and have a sparkling white sink?
Get battery acid water from a Batter charger
Drain the water in the closet with a mopping stick Then pour the battery water into it but be careful because it's acid
Leave it for a while like 10mins and use toilet brush and omo to scrub it off
shawante: This guy why are you OBSESSED and I SECURE with your face.. Today it's your face tomorrow it's your nose, don't you have better things to do with your time
He is so childish with his personality display
Always displaying his face thinking he is good looking
udofia234: Thanks for the advice! But wont he complain if I have being praying very loud at midnight? let's always put our fellow neighbours into considerations!
Then if that is the case then he should have also put you into consideration too
Tunjibalogun: The exact salary he earned while he worked is exactly what he's earning in pension. I'm sure of that. We've talked to him before. Right from his youth he always had lots of friends, he even trained most of his relative in school. He was also able to build two storey building and has lots of land (Atleast he hasn't remembered to be selling them lol),but because he was in active service he could always finance those ridiculous expenses but now he's a pensioner he still maintains most of his friends draining his pocket. No one asks him for money because our family size is small and all of us are doing well in on our own but Atleast he should learn to manage himself and stop the ridiculous high expense lifestyle. The last time I was with him to a function, he took all of us to a joint and spent alot on us and I got to understand that's his usual routine lol
Since it's now a habit he formed from his youth days, don't expect him to stop it at all
I think you guys should keep demanding from him and make him to take you guys out untill he has nothing in his pocket at that giving time
