Yes, uncertainties have become our ally.

Why do a lot of Fly Emirates crew quit within 3 years of joining the airline?

People who have never been a crew member with Emirates will probably never understand why people resign from Emirates. They think ‘’How can someone resign from one of the best airlines in the world’?’. To many, being Emirates cabin crew is a dream and that is why many would not really understand why people would resign. I think no one would really understand until they themselves would walk in their shoes.

Emirates have a very high turnover rate. They keep having tons and tons of cabin crew recruitment events around the world, monthly. That is because so many crew leave every day. A friend of mine resigned Emirates as a crew member last year. She told me that when she was doing her exit stuff at the bank, she was number 16 in line to close her bank account. So during that timing and day there were 15 other Emirates cabin crew waiting in line to close their bank accounts. All because they were resigning. That was during that specific timing and day. Crazy!

Now to the question of why a lot of EK crew resign within 3 years.

The crew that resign from Emirates have one of these reasons or a mix of all:

Fatigue. The rosters the Emirates crew have are a lot. They keep having flights back to back and having long hours. The rosters sometimes can be crazy. People are bound to get tired and they feel they can’t do this anymore. The crazy sleeping patterns also affect them.

Homesickness. They are far away from friends and family. Living in a country that is not their home country. At first living in Dubai might be ‘’wow’’ for some, but the ‘’wow’’ factor wears off very quickly. Imagine every single day you work and then come home to no one. Yes you share the accommodation with roommates but they are not your family or friends like home. You are in a country and place that you are not used to. You start missing your home, people and things that you were used to.

Loneliness. Even if the crew are surrounded by so many folks they often feel lonely. The Emirates crew share their accommodation with either one or two flatmates. Still they feel lonely. Of course they make new friends from their batch or around them but still the feeling of being lonely can be too much sometimes. When you start to feel lonely then the homesickness kicks in. That is when you keep thinking about home. You start to feel depressed and sad. A long period of feeling this way then you are bound to start thinking of resigning.

Rules. When you sign your Emirates cabin crew contract you also sign up to follow 10000 rules. There are various strict rules the crew have to follow both on duty and off duty. Example: the female crew are not allowed to have any male friends sleep over at their house. The same for the male crew. Example: if the crew wish to have family over to their accommodation, they have to sign forms and have it approved. This is in regards to having family over to stay for a long period of time. There is also a curfew in place for all crew. The strict rules can feel suffocating for some. Example: the crew are not allowed to have alcohol in their houses without a liquor license. If the company finds out the crew have alcohol in their accommodation without having a liquor license then the crew is fired. Having all these rules makes the crew feel very controlled by the company. The crew feel like kids having a ‘’big brother’’ watching them at all times, etc.

Working environment. Emirates cabin crew have no unions. If something happens they have no safety net or no support from anyone. There are a lot of back stabbing happening among the crew. A lot of crew reporting each other. A lot of crew getting fired for silly reasons, etc. The crew feel they don’t have any support from the managers. Example: if a crew member ends up having a argument with a passenger, then the passenger have the right to get that crew member fired. The crew really have no voice. The airline will back up the passengers but not the crew. The service on board are very tough and strict. The passengers are very demanding in certain flights. When the crew have no voice, no support from managers and have difficult passengers then sometimes it feels like they are ‘’modern day’’ slaves on board.

Roommates. The crew share the accommodation with one or two other crew. The crew are not allowed to change accommodation until after they have completed their probation period. The probation period is 6 months. Then after they have completed their probation period they have to make a request to change accommodation. This process is not easy and does not happen quickly. I have a friend that wanted to change her accommodation because of she was not happy with her roommate and they were not getting along. It took her two years to get the change approved. Having bad roommates affects the crew a lot.

Fantasy. Crew have a picture of what their lives would be like before they join. They think this is a dream life and a dream job. They think the job is easy and breezy. They paint this picture in their minds and think it is a walk in a rosy garden. But when they arrive in Dubai they will realize that perhaps this was not what they had in mind. Perhaps the job is too demanding. The hours are too much. They can’t handle the stress and press. The rules are too much. They simply aren’t enjoying the job anymore and this was not what they had in mind. So they do the job for 1–3 years and quit.

Other goals. Then we have crew who resign because they feel this isn’t for them anymore. They have different goals and plans than this. Their plan in the beginning was to do this for approx 1–3 years then go back home and continue with other stuff. We have crew who take this job because they wanted to try it for one year and see how it is. They never intended to stay in the company for long. Some even do this as a fun thing for a short period of time and then resign.

These were some of the main reasons why Emirates crew resign within such a short period of time.

A real food for thought.

At 9:06 a.m. Pacific Standard Time on January 26, 2020, a Sikorsky S-76 helicopter departed from John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, with nine people aboard: Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna, six family friends and the pilot.

The helicopter was registered to the Fillmore-based Island Express Holding Corp., according to the California Secretary of State business database. The group was traveling to a basketball game at Bryant's Mamba Academy in Thousand Oaks.

Due to light rain and fog that morning, the LAPD helicopters and most other air traffic were grounded. The flight tracker showed that the helicopter circled above the L.A. Zoo due to heavy air traffic in the area. At 9:30 a.m. the pilot Ara Zobayan contacted the Burbank Airport's control tower, notifying the tower of the situation and was told he was "flying too low" to be tracked by radar. At that time, the helicopter experienced extreme fog and turned south towards the mountains. At 9:40 a.m. the helicopter climbed rapidly from 1,200 to 2,000 feet (370 to 610 m), flying at 161 knots (298 km/h; 185 mph).

At 9:45 a.m., the helicopter crashed into the side of a mountain in Calabasas, about 30 miles (48 km) northwest of downtown Los Angeles, and caught on fire. Bryant, his daughter, and the other seven occupants were killed. This also started a quarter-acre bush fire. At 9:47 a.m. authorities were called. Los Angeles County Fire Department firefighters responded to the scene, and paramedics rappelled from a helicopter to the scene to look for survivors. The fire was difficult to extinguish due to the presence of magnesium, but the fire had been extinguished by 10:30 a.m. Initial reports indicated that the helicopter crashed in the hills above Calabasas in heavy fog. Witnesses reported hearing a helicopter struggling before crashing.

The cause of the crash is still unknown, as the helicopter was not equipped with a black box. The Federal Aviation Administration, National Transportation Safety Board, and the FBI have launched investigations into the crash.

On January 28, Bryant's identity was officially confirmed using fingerprints. The following day, the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner-Coroner stated that the official cause of death for him and the eight others on the helicopter was blunt force trauma

What mistakes are immigrants making while migrating to Canada?

Overestimating employment opportunities. If you’re a member of a profession, expect to go down a step or two and be ready to re-prove your abilities. Almost certainly, we will do things differently here. For example, one of the biggest hurdles to foreign trained physicians is the way they treat patients, in other words the way doctors used to treat patients in Canada - with little respect and a condescending attitude.

Underestimating housing costs. Even in a less expensive market like Montreal housing will take a big chunk out of your pay. That bungalow you lived in back home will set you back $800K in Toronto. Apartments generally go for $2K a month. It’s a shock even if you come from many places in the United States where housing costs are a quarter of that or less.

Not knowing how to do things yourself. At home, you may have had servants or family members doing routine things. You will have to do all your own cooking, laundry, driving (!), shopping and, of course, child care. You can of course try to hire such people in Canada, but it’s prohibitively expensive.

What are some jobs that are likely to keep you poor?

Uber driver — you beat up your own car for pretty much minimum wage. No room for advancement.

Waiter at a low-end chain restaurant. You’ll be treated like a number; sent home if it’s slow.

Lose prime shifts if you ever call in sick. The chain will eventually go out of business and you’ll have to start all over again at a new chain.

Social worker. This usually requires an advanced degree but the pay is poor and burnout high. It’s God’s work, but the job may kill your soul.

Sex industry worker. Does this need expounding upon? (EDIT: According to the comments, I guess it does. In short, there are no benefits in this field, no 401Ks, no longterm stability and a high chance that most money will be lost as a part of the porn lifestyle — drugs, plastic surgery, etc.)

How did Michael Jordan become a billionaire?

Firstly, he had a great salary from the NBA. He often made close to $100M a year.

He also managed to create a personal brand, and get stakes in that brand and the Charlotte Hornets basketball team.

He made some sensible decisions as well, including his decision to gain a profit from each shoe that Nike sold from his collection, rather than getting paid more upfront.

In addition to that, he seems to have avoided some of the lifestyle traps of many other sports and entertainment stars.

Remember, around 60% of former pro-basketball stars have gone broke within 5 years of retirement.

There are countless former sports stars who also made close to $100m a year, and went bust. So he seems more sensible than many sports stars.

Finally, what has also helped is compounding. He wasn’t a billionaire when he was 25 or 30.

He has built up over decades. He is 56. He become a billionaire in 2014 at the age of around 51.

This is another scam business on a WhatsApp group.

Their WhatsApp number is: +234 706 194 7833

They will look for your number and add you to their WhatsApp group without your permission. They will then ask you to leave the group if you don’t like what they’re doing.

The moderators are maniacal criminals who would quickly remove you from the group if you ever question what they do, and also private message you to abuse you (PM, DM, PC).

Unlimited 100% Fixedgame promises to give you numbers that win sports bets 100% of the time. They say you cannot lose because they have access to secrets of fixed matches.

But you need to send money to get the numbers to do sports betting games. Send money to them at your peril… They remove you quickly from their group afterwards.

Mission accomplished.

If they know numbers that could win 100% of the time, why can’t they and their family only play the game and become rich? Why must they spend a lot of time and energy persuading people to be rich?

These scoundrels use many means to dupe people, but it boils down to, “SEND MONEY TO RECEIVE MONEY.”

When we talk about cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology, we should be witnessing an infectious adoption on a global scale. These technologies can further enhance self-governance, thereby improving the security in the world. The obvious ensuing step that should be taken is a mainstream adoption of this technology.

There are a good number of reasons why mainstream adoption hasn’t been achieved yet. One of these reasons is that cryptocurrency and Blockchain inventors are yet to create a singular product that can function as a sort of Blockchain ecosystem. Such a product is sure to gain acceptance on a global scale.

This is the concept the Telegram Open Network is aiming to achieve. This guide aims to educate the reader on what the Telegraph Open Network (TON) is and how it is positioning itself to achieve global mainstream adoption.

Table of Contents
What Is Telegram Open Network (TON)?
The Telegram Open Network will be a game-changer for social messaging. The Blockchain is a project born of social media behemoth, Telegram, which will be launched at the end of October.

So far, a total of $1.7 billion has been raised in funding for this project through 200 private investors via an Initial Coin Offering. This project can be a very lucrative venture for new investors to hop on considering the insane amount of users that the platform has.

One of the major focuses of this project will be on Blockchain scaling. Blockchain scaling has lasting issues stalking the crypto space and TON claims to have the remedy to this.

The major challenge facing Existing Blockchains is its inability to scale enough to process large amounts of transactions suitable for mass adoption.

TON is also planning to provide adequate security for users. The primary goal of this technology is to boost cryptocurrency adoption across the globe and this would be impossible if they fail to provide round-the-clock security and insurance for its users. The decentralized nature of TON is going to be of great essence to this cause.

The Telegram Open Network project is not some other conventional ICO. This technology is also not built on any pre-existing Blockchain, instead, TON comes with its very Blockchain, the TON Blockchain. This system also has its cryptocurrency, GRAM coin, its consensus mechanism, and its virtual machine.

The native coin, GRAM, can be utilized for several functions on the Blockchain including micro-payments, providing access to DApps, payment of fees and also, generating value for messages via the Telegram Messenger app.

This Blockchain boasts of being able to facilitate transactions in a matter of seconds with limited or no charges. The TON platform comprises of a Blockchain and 292 supplementary networks. The Blockchain will possess the ability to support “sharding technology”, which is guaranteed to improve transaction speeds.

Sharding is a method for splitting the whole network into a bunch of compartments called shards, that incorporate their autonomous piece of state and transaction history. The central principle behind sharding is to conduct transactions in a parallel manner to distinguish data into several small Blockchains that can communicate with one another.

The public Blockchain also features a decentralized application platform and a peer-to-peer sharing and hosting economy.

In the Telegram Open Network’s white paper statement, the Company is planning on merging the messaging app platform with a wide array of other characteristics. The function will be most useful for knowledgeable crypto users.

History of TON
Back in 2013, some tech enthusiasts yearned to create a system that offers freedom by way of encryption. This was the desire that makes TON a reality today. TON was created to sustain a stringent independent nature and also to be a not-for-profit entity. The company followed in the of its mentor, Wikipedia, by creating a ‘.org’ domain to accentuate its non-commercial nature even further.

Telegram is an instant messaging cloud-based voice-over-IP service that was created by Telegram Messenger LLP. The founding fathers of the company are Pavel Durov and Nikolai Durov.

The ideology of substantial decentralization by the founding fathers is also witnessed in the physical foundation of TON. The company makes use of a server design that is scattered across several independent server clusters to guarantee data encryption.

Due to impressive features like encryption, speed, and autonomy, Telegram witnessed an extensive reception from millions of users in just a few months after its release. Subsequently, Telegram has evolved into a system that grosses over 12 updates in a year. In the first quarter of 2016, the system had 100 million active users and was delivering as much as 15 billion messages daily.

In the last quarter of 2017, the system received 170 million new users and was delivering as much as 70 billion messages daily basis. As of March of 2018 Telegram had 200 million active users. As of today, 500,000 users are added to the platform daily basis. Experts claim that these figures are only going to continue growing exponentially manner over the years.

Telegram says it is planning on using these remarkable figures to facilitate the widespread adoption of its cryptocurrency.

Features of TON
Information about the protocol as well as information about validators and their balances are stored on the Blockchain. Unlike most cryptocurrencies, GRAM does not provide support for mining, instead, the validity of transactions on the platform are determined by ‘validators’ who receive a small commission for every completed task.

There are also ‘working’ Blockchains which enables the user conduct smart contracts. These Blockchains are configured with different rules and make use of various Virtual Machines to execute the smart contracts.

Based on its white paper release, the Telegram Open Network will have several components including:

1- TON proxy:
This is a mechanism on the network that will help users mask their identities and create a decentralized virtual private network (VPN) to guarantee online privacy. This mechanism is done in a bid to ensure that the services being provided, including Telegram, has adequate protection form censorship.

2- TON storage:
This is described as a file storing mechanism used for the storage of arbitrary files that possess torrent-like access technology and contracts used to implement availability.

3- TON services:
This is an inaugurated platform that will be used to guarantee decentralized browsing experience and also for smart contracts.

4- TON DNS:
This feature will allow for access to available decentralized services to its users by designating accounts with human-readable labels.

5- TON payments:
This will provide support for instant off-chain payments within the network. It also features in-built safeguards to ensure security when conducting transfers, making sure that these transactions are as secure as on-chain transactions.

6- TON virtual machine:
This is the mechanism that facilitates smart contracts on the network.

What Is GRAM Cryptocurrency?
For a Blockchain to function properly, there has to be a native cryptocurrency. Telegram has issued GRAM as the base cryptocurrency for TON. This coin will function mainly as part of the in-app ecosystem on Telegram and will be used as a means for payment. The external use of this coin is still yet to be confirmed.

GRAM is built on a proof-of-stake protocol and protected using “smart contracts”. This will allow the network to conduct up to 10 million transactions per second.

Furthermore, The GRAM coin can be used for the following purposes:

Payment for in-built services delivered by DApps.

It can be used to pay for the storage and security and security of data in a decentralized manner.

To pay for the registration of Blockchain domain names as well as for hosting whatever TON-related sites.

To pay for the masking of identities and IP addresses, from specified viewers to improve on privacy even further.

To pay for the avoidance of censorship that internet service providers normally enforce.

To pay for digital and physical assets sold by brokers inside the TON ecosystem or on other TON-related projects.

With regards to the business model practiced by TON, their services are free for its users, in what TON calls a ‘Freemium’.

Potential Competitor
The obvious competition TON will be faced with is Facebook’s cryptocurrency project, Libra.

Libra is a platform that will conduct almost the same functions as the Telegram Open Network. Libra’s major aims are to, first, manufacture a singular digital currency that will achieve global adoption. The second primary aim is to create a facilitates domestic and international financial transactions on a basic mobile interface. This system will be built on a Blockchain architecture capable of achieving great speeds, security, and scalability. It also plans on achieving a fully decentralized system as time goes by.

These are goals that TON has also set for itself. Though they both have different characteristics, it is obvious that they share similar qualities. This has caused experts to believe that these entities will exhibit intense competition when they are launched. Whether these Blockchain giants become rivals or not doesn’t matter. What matters is that they receive extensive adoption on the global front and bring more advancements to cryptocurrency and Blockchain technology.

With the headway TON has been gathering, it is expected that this product will receive an extensive adoption globally.

Do people still use Nairaland?

As someone who has been a member of Nairaland, Nigeria’s largest discussion forum since 2005 when it was founded by Seun Osewa, i’m in a good position to answer this question.

Yes, people still use Nairaland and a lot of people at that even though i’ll say that the popularity has dipped as a lot f people have left the forum but newer people have joined and are still joining.

Some years ago, i couldn’t do without Nairaland but that has changed over the years as i don’t frequent the forum as much as i used to because of the mental shift that has happened.

Back in the day, you had the most intelligent Nigerians domiciled on Nairaland. Any information you needed,from politics, sports, entertainment, Virtual reality, food, you name it all had people that were experts in them and less intelligent people found it difficult to register talk more of comment on topics because they were intimidated by the caliber of people on the forum.

In recent times, you have every Uche, Kelechi and Wasiu on the forum, the average IQ of Nairaland as today is not desirable as most people there are not interested in engaging in any meaningful debate rather the forum is riddled with kids and unruly characters looking for whom to insult.
