So many things to be done dear!! Have to be somwier nw, takie of u dear!

Anticipating your wonderful return.. We've got a lot to gist. Take care!

Nice thread... let me drop my point.


I think including referees in your CV is an obsolete system of computing CV of the 21st century except you are convinced that the referee will make you stand on a better chance of getting the Job.

Fraudsters and scammers are everywhere looking for prey to feed on so we need to be careful about it because we often send our CV online to every job recruiting site without even knowing the real or fake ones. When I registered on jobberman then, I started getting invite message from one fate GNLD people. I had to send a message to them to disconnect me from their server.

I had an experience in a bank also where my referees almost make me loss the job. When the recruiter looked at my referees in my CV, he asked about them, their net worth and if I can convinced them to their bank. I said one is a civil servant and the other is a lecturer, the man just kissed. He said they need a referee that is into a good business. I was surprised how has that got to do with the my job in the bank. Someone with a referees of a business tycoon got the job almost immediately because the said person is his uncle. From that day I had to review my CV.

The stupid part of it is that the job na 60k & they need a referee that worth over 10million. Banks can be so stingy n useless...

It all depend on the organisation policy and HR personnel. I think referee should be neglected when writing CV. You can just have a one page referees which you take along when going for interview. When you are asked you tender it to them and give good reasons why it is not part of the CV. That available upon request looks awkward to me and I feel it will be same to employers n recruiters.

The point is that if the job is yours, with or without referees, you will get it.

That's my point.

@bolded
What then should be put under the 'Referee' heading?

podosci:
Defects in Plaster regularly fall into this categories
•Non-structural cracks •Structural cracks •Debonding •Lack of hardness •Grinning •Expansion •Popping
BUT your cracks seems to have occurred before the application of Plaster leading me to conclude it's a structural (serviceability) crack. I have come across something of that nature in a book (construction technology by Eric fleming) where he talks about cracks in and around Windows and doors.... I would try and check and get back to you.

Please Sir, do you have the soft copy of the textbook @bolded? I'd love to read it. Please reply for convo sake.

@OP, since the cracks were noticed after plastering and is not deep as to affecting the blocks, then I should go with Abdulwastecx's opinion. All you need is a retouch on the work. Basically, you could make use of a better mix for strength sake.

deracathy:
Hahaha karleone
please don't give them the info to kidnap me here on NL.
You finished from FUTO too? Greatest FUTOITES Fundamental GBA GBA
