Jobs/Vacancies › Re: My Incompetence Just Cost Me A Job, I Feel Worthless by greatseed: 2:04pm On Mar 15, 2022 |
Supremedrizzy: Someone gave me a simple job of making an existing static site template responsive within 24 hours and I blew it. A simple task that should take few hours, it looked all good on my localhost only to test it on netlify and it turned out to be a disaster. I'm just so ashamed of myself.
I've been learning web dev since mid last year though its been a case of one month on three months off, I've been grossly inconsistent due circumstances beyond my control. I haven't even coded this year because I come back from my menial hustles with battered bones and weak muscles. You can imagine trying to code after offloading a trailer load of cement all day. I even had to use bet shops around for the gig amidst the pangs of hunger I felt while working coupled with the noisy and distracting environment I was working in which contributed to my legendary blunder.
At the age of 30 and unemployed I've always seen programming as my way out of poverty but it seems I'm not good enough. I'm painfully watching that little flicker of hope fizzle out before my tearful eyes. Which other skill can I dabble into product design?? I suck at designs reason why my frontend skills is below average... should I try backend?? I'm just confused, frustrated and down casted not knowing the next step to take while time is no longer on my side.
Life currently has no meaning and direction to me, I just seem to be flowing aimlessly with the flow. My situation is giving me sleepless nights and I now rely on drugs to sleep for even three hours a day.
I really need someone to talk to, I'm really tired of trying to work out things on my own. I'm 30, broke, lonely and depressed, single has been a constant in my life's equation cos I don't even like myself for who I am presently so I don't expect someone's daughter to like me in this my miserable state.
Someone should please show me the way, this dark tunnel is fast turning to a maze that I can't navigate on my own. My brother, always have it @d back of ur mind that tough times don't last forever, but tough people do! To be sincere with you, I feel your frustration, but I bet you don't want to hear or feel what millions of people are going through right now, but be strong & hopeful. Never stop trying!!! U still have life, that's enough to give you joy everyday u wake up. |

I see only Tinubu or osinbanjo with the intellectual, forward thinking capacity to move Nigeria forward, others with same age & experience seems not to have their level of wisdom.

I found this snake crawling out of beneath my generator at our corridor. I guess it's a python but I might be wrong. Can anyone identify what breed of snake it is? So I can know what we are up against.
Meanwhile, we need to be careful and always hold our light when moving around. This one could have entered the house or bit me if I wasn't with a light.
Thanks a baby viper |
Family › Re: Am I Spoiling My 7-year Old Son? by greatseed: 9:49am On Mar 09, 2022 |
Teettyllayho: Please I need advise from people with grown up kids.
Honestly, parenting is not easy. I don't even know what to do anymore.
My first son is 7 but he is kind of slow. However, he's above average in learning and he's learning at his pace. I understand all of this and I'm always happy to guide him.
But I don't know if I'm too hard or too soft on him because I use to talk to him a lot. I only beat him when he does something serious (like going against my rules, or not doing his homework when he should).
These days, whenever I scold him, he would give me a sad look and he might even shout saying: "I've heard you!" Then, he will be alone in a corner for some time.
Sometimes, I'd go close to him and tell him why I had to scold him and he'd say "I don't like it when you shout at me" I'd apologize and hug him (I don't even know if I'm spoiling him by apologizing). .
I don't know how to scold without putting a bit of action at least. Shey I'll be whispering and scolding ni? Sometimes, I'll leave him and pretend as if I didn't see him when he brings up such attitude.
Last week, he mistakenly brought back someone else's lunch box home because they look very much alike. I told him it's okay that it happens and I promised to write his name in bold when he brings back his box the next day to prevent such from happening again.
Could you believe that he came back with the other person's lunch box again? When I asked him, he said he didn't see his lunch box and the boy that took his own. Then I asked: Did you tell your class teacher? Are you sure you know the boy?
His reply: I didn't tell my teacher because I know the boy and I went to his class but he wasn't there.
So, I figured that he must have gone to check once and didn't bother to check again. And he didn't bother to also tell his class teacher.
So, I was very mad this time and told him not to bring someone else's property home again, no matter what!
I think he would have told his teacher if he really valued his property because he told me something that made me really mad the next morning.
"Mummy, or will you buy me another lunch box since we can't find mine?" Luckily for me, he was brushing his teeth then and I was bathing for his sister. The resounding slap I gave him on his back brought back his senses.
I don't know why he always want something new. He spoilt the lunch box I bought for him and his sister o and he's using another one now. That is, he wants me to buy a third one while his sister is still using the first one? How na?
I don't even know what to think. Why would he want a new box when he's barely used the new one?
Then, he's always talking about how his classmates use to bring different kinds of food ( he wasn't like this before o).
I try as much as possible to make different foods for him too, and he's stopped complaining.
We recently changed his school and his new school has quite a lot of pupils. I Don't know if that's affecting him.
Honestly, I'm bothered about the changes and I don't know how best to address it.
I've made him understand countless times that he should always be content with whatever he has and he shouldn't compare himself with anyone.
I just finished with another round of lecture now and he has tears in his eyes saying:
"Mummy, stop shouting at me. It makes me sad"
I was heartbroken and felt guilty seeing him like this and I did everything possible to make him see why I had to shout or scold.
Please how can I scold a child without shouting? Am I spoiling him? Can someone help with tips? Honestly, I'm tired! Now that he is still in his teenage age, don't think twice by sparing the rod. At the same time, don't let your emotions & love for him stop you from monitoring him, whenever you are convinced in your inner mind that he is doing something that is not right. Sorry, may I ask where is his father? He has big roles to play in this regards, but if he is not around, you have to learn to play both roles. Spare the rod & spoil the child. |

My humble question is this. At what point was the DAILY SACRIFICE abolished, for the abomination of desolation to be set up?
Or let me be clearer, what does the DAILY SACRIFICE mean to you, and when was this abolished? I am enjoying this knowledge & lessons. I even thought I knew a thing or 2,but alas this guy's have some wisdom to this all I guess.

At this point i have no choice but to support Russia and President Putin. Kudos to him. And i urge you all to do the same. We must also put pressure on our government & leaders to stand with Russia. So you are expecting people or citizens of Nigeria to stand with who ? Have we even as a country stand by ourselves ? Talk less of standing with another person, foreigner or country.  |
