I'd like to start by saying I'm serving, Sorry if the story is all messed up as my mind is F'ed up right now.

I got into a corpers lodge which used to be a lounge. I didn't want to date anyone but this hoe kept disturbing me to. Gave in.

Usually I'm a crypto investor, I have money, I look good, I dress good. I'm not saying all these things to hype myself up but I'm okay.

Sexually I can last hours, I made her cum consistently. The only problem I have is delayed ejaculation. Which she complains about.

Now, I'm not the type to love hard as I'm already used to heartbreaks. So we dated and broke up after 4 months or so. I was okay with the breakup.

Only to find out she's been fucking around the whole time I was loving up, as she(in my mind) opened up to me about the guys that played her and broke her heart.

She goes to church frequently and if you see this girl outside you'd think she's a saint, she doesn't party, she doesn't usually drink and no smoking.

Anyway I found out that she'd be fucking her our fellow corper guys and was getting passed around, while still pretending she still loved me(after the breakup).

When I knew and she came to my side and I told her to go Bleep the guy she usually goes to she said she doesn't care.

This person who I thought had a conscience was probably a covert narcissist who wants male attention from anywhere she'll get it.

To be honest it pains me to say this but I felt foolish for actually loving the girl and started to doubt myself as a man.

I'm usually the one girls cheat on their guys with(when I was in uni) but this time around I got my share(after I became a good guy), it hit hard and it disgusted me how I got to know she was being pounded by other niggas.

Funny thing is now she doesn't hide it, she blows kisses to the nigga openly in everyone's presence.

Don't want to bitch all day about this but honestly it feels evil how someone can switch like the devil cause I had nothing but good intentions for her. And she not only did all that but boldly told people I was the one disturbing her life. Lol. It is well. I know it's the times we shared that's causing me to feel undeserved.

The one thing on my mind I Sha know is that at the end of the day I'm still an awesome dude, no matter how a hoe wants to pay me back I'll still make bank and get back out there. Thanks for reading and if you have things to add, both good or bad I'm willing to read through.

Addition ; wanted to marry her as I had enough money to and we shared(to my understanding) the same values and dreams. I doubt I'll ever fall for words or even actions of love again as I was genuinely convinced she was good.

I guess she is a Corper too? lols I just remembered some corpers lodge packages not long ago when I served. Meanwhile, just forget her and move on, better banny go show your way

Dontleaveme:
People are fond of just making this statement. Is the skill free or you need money to acquire it?

that motivational talk don tire me. one needs funds too, maybe they forget about that, because honestly if I can get funds and very good PC, the sky will be my starting point.

Help!

A friend of mine has his name on the senate list of a university, the names for batch A stream 2 is out and his name is among, his 24yrs and according to nysc to apply for exemption you must be above 30yrs or married or have a life threatening illness, So please house, if you have ever successfully boycotted the nysc program how did you go about it and what's the process of officially applying for an exemption letter?


I'm awaiting your responses
NYSC officials in the house, your advisory is greatly needed, He doesn't want to go for NYSC as his job won't offer the flexibility and he has no time for it.

Please move to FP for fast response; he has less than 2 weeks to come up with a decision

my advice will be for him to go for the compulsory 3 weeks orientation and since he is working, he should spend money to get relocation closer to the local govt where he works and every other thing will work out seamlessly. trust me.

Datboredberry:
Not referring to outfits...

Haircuts... 20k is what many girls spend on... Bone straight was very expensive... No man would spend that on a haircut to prove he has money...

men do, I was at a guest house last two days and they have a salon for gents, surprisingly one of their former IT student said it cost 15k + for cut and other blah blah...

I am Osogbo base but went to Lagos yesterday for an interview, i didnt print a copy of my CV so i decided to branch a business center to do so. the good thing is that the shop was open even as early as 7 a.m compared to Osogbo people that wont open shop until 10 a.m and even 12 pm sometimes.

I entered into the shop and met a lady who asked me to transfer my file to the company mail which i did... grrrrrr document came out and i open my wallet with dignity and gave the lady 1000 expecting change of 850... but to my surprise, she gave me #400, at first, i didnt say anything thinking maybe she is still trying to find the rest of the change.

Then this lady sat down and continue with another customer document, i then said "excuse me, my change is not complete" i was moved to tears when she told me its #200 per page. i couldnt say anything as i have to respect my suit and tie and package my self out of the Cafe.

i went out of the shop and noticed my shoe is dusty and i need to shine it which normally cost #50, i saw one aboki by the road side, I pulled out my shoe and put on the slippers he offered me. just as he was dusting the shoe, my spirit just told me to ask for the price and to my surprise, he said #100... i didn't know when i screemed "for shinning shoe?" oga dont worry, gimme my shoe back... nah so i take commot for his front and use my hand take dust am

while the same aboki shine shoes here in Kano for #30 only, I was also surprised when I gave my shoes for shinning and gave him #100 in order to know the price ( I no wan form jjc) the guy gave me #70 change.

Bet king and spotty bet
Your money is not safe in thier account and your card details is not safe too ...
Even if you successfully moved your founds to your back account they can still steal it ....
Seems they have employed Yahoo boys and nobody is talking or doing anything...

that bet company is shady, same happen to a friend of mine. he won and transferred the funds to his account yet the money was withdrawn showing sporty bet in the alert.about 27k I think.

mollie12:
Nothing more to add. I'm sure you are one of the target unemployable folks this post set out to address.
With each rebuttal, you have corroborated my initial point. Looking for excuses to remain lazy and not make the needed changes to become employable.

And by the way - on your points on me paying peanuts. Lol. You missed where I said I lost hundreds of thousands of naira on low-value hires.

My payout rate was NGN50,000 per week (that comes to NGN200k per month) for fresh graduates because I wanted to give young people a chance. That's more than 6x the national minimum wage. But with submissions like yours, I now see why most employers of labor insist on paying peanuts. Since people don't want to take corrections and learn how to improve themselves and their value.

well some of your points are valid but such conclusion shouldn't be attributed to large number of applicants.
Fresh graduates like myself shouldn't be subjected to modern day slavery because most employers takes advantage of many due to lack of working experience and high unemployment rate in our dear country.
But, prior to the aforementioned, what nature of job do you pay #50,000 per week because I might be interested.

I just came across this thread and I hope for better deals ahead. more wins all, thanks Dr for this.

Lucaslookers:
Please married folks in the house,

My lovely wife and I have been married for almost 2 years now. I know I am not a perfect person and she is not too but we have been managing.

Why I opened this thread is that I am very afraid of her new attitude of always carrying weapons anytime we have a misunderstanding.

It started when I found out she had an abortion without telling me and when I confronted her she flared up and started behaving like a tout jumping here and there.

On Friday last week we were discussing about how to go about the new business I want to set up for her and somehow we got into an argument and she ran into the kitchen and grabbed a knife.

Again, this morning I simply asked her to waybill some foodstuffs to her father as I wouldn't be able to do that before heading to my place of business and she grabbed my clothes and started calling me names, next thing she picked up the belt hanging on the wardrobe and started threatening to teach me a lesson.

I have never been a woman beater and honestly don't know what has gotten into her.
We have a pending issue we are yet to sort out but still I am keeping my calm why is she the one suddenly going violent??

Please what do I do? I don't want blood on my hands because if I touch her it will be very bad.
My marriage is still young.

boss sorry for the ordeal you're facing but am more concern on the abortion. whose child did she abort?

It's simple.
Reason with your LG CLO, assistant LGI or LGI concerning your issue and if the agree with it they will give you another ppa asap without contacting the other principal. Your LG have power over you not your principal.

Unigrad:
I am having issue with my principal refusing to sign my rejection letter in other for me to relocate to the school closer to my house.
My current PPA is very far from my house, it cost #2000 transportation fare, the day I went to sign the rejection letter, I didn't see anybody in the school including principal, teachers and students. I got there about to 10am, the school were almost taken over by weeds, I had bike accident on a tied road on my way there, my body got injured, I thank God I didn't fracture any of my bones.
What should I do since the principal is refusing to sign the rejection letter?

11Anonymous:
Just got a job offer of about 80k per month and I planned on going for NYSC before the year ends.

Which should I go for, knowing that I may no longer be interested in serving after getting a job?

Go for the job instead of NYSC that you will spend one worthless year after which you will start hustling for job but if you don't want the job link me up am rounding up my service year bro.

SCAM!!!
Any agency that will request payment either for a training/recruitment is definitely scam. How can I the applicant be paying, if I should have money then no need of looking for the job in the first place.
I remember I applied there too can't remember the position, I saw it on FB but I didn't go for the interview. My instinct didnt let me go.

Hi Nlders, kindly answer these questions.
(1). Are we upload our NYSC cert immediately?
because I want to register but not yet through with NYSC, but will be in a month or two.
(2). Likewise, someone stated that we must write and article or so, is it while doing the registration or one can upload it later?
Kindly answer these questions for those that have registered so I can know what am going into.

Hi everyone, I just want to make a enquiry or to get enlighten on how relevant can HSE 1,2 & 3 be to a graduate of sociology currently serving and how lucrative it is in terms of getting employed. We both discussed about it but seems we couldn't arrive to a conclusion. Pls experts, kindly share your thoughts on this or should professional courses below should be taken instead during his service year:
- Project Management.
- Human Resource Management.
- Environmental & Waste Management.
- Quality Assurance & Control.
- Basic Rig training for Roustabout.
- Oil & Gas operational Safety.
- Quality Management System.
- Customer Relationship Management.
Pls Mod make e reach promise land.

I will advise you to go for HRM with CIPM, they are certified body recognize in Nigeria. HR is hot cake now ooooo.

If you go for HSE, probably with ISPON or NEBOSH, it will be very difficult to secure a job since your educational background is non-science base. Because, those with science qualifications are still struggling with those of Engineering base.

Anyone you finally decide, pls make sure is recognized certification not those NYSC own oooo.

Its actually those NYSC own o boss.

Dear Nairalanders,
I have an issue that has been on my mind for weeks now. My fiancé and I have been dating for over three years. I love him and he loves me too. We are physically attracted to each other. We’re both catholic but since I graduated, during my service year I gave my life to Christ, got saved and left the Catholic Church. So I’ve been a Pentecostal Christian since then. He on the other hand is still catholic. I subtly try to nudge him to consider getting saved, i.e acknowledging Christ as lord and savior and becoming born again but he is content with his laidback Christian life.

Earlier this year, he asked to meet my parents and I let him. My parents like him especially because my younger sis is married and they have been waiting for me too. They’re glad I’ve someone. However, after the introduction,I regret it. I’m now certain that he’s not the one. I think about my spiritual life and how lukewarm he is about the things of God, I think about kids and how we’ll raise the, with such differing views about God and I’m discouraged. I feel like I’m settling because he checks all the boxes on the checklist of physical attributes. Another mistake I made is, I didn’t pray about this decision and that worries me because anything that involves him,I just act with pausing to ask God, but I always ask God about other aspects of my life. So it’s like my associating with him is a minus for my spiritual life and that’s a huge cause for concern.

At this point, I want to tell my parents I am not convinced it’s him but I’m afraid of the disappointment this will cause. *sigh* I’ll appreciate your thoughts, comments, criticisms...

According to you, "you got saved and left catholic". Does it mean that you were not saved while in catholic? or probably those in catholic are not saved that made you left and you desire your fiance to left catholic church?
*mind you am not a catholic but needs to know about the listed above.

Hello, I am corper serving in a semi-urban area in the north central region of Nigeria. My monthly allowance is N33,000 plus my employer's monthly stipend of N4,000. My monthly total earning is N37,000.

Below is my monthly budget (NGN)

TRANSPORT - 3200
GAS - 1600
FOOD - 15,580
DATA & AIRTIME - 1500
MISCELLANEOUS - 1500

TOTAL MONTHLY EXPENSES - 23,000 (apx)

TOTAL MONTHLY SAVINGS - 14,000 + budget surplus

I have learnt to be frugal and only pay for needs and not wants ever since I started service because cost of living in Nigeria is very high. I am also brain storming on business and farming ideas to venture into to supplement my earnings.

Corpers in the house, how much do you earn, spend and save monthly?

its obvious you don't browse, because with that amount(1500) meant for data and airtime you sure say you dey call your people so

Omoconsult:
Why did I pick that age bracket?

Because this post is not for everyone.

Onward...

There are two types of business.

The one that requires your time and presence...that is...if you're not there, the business may suffer...this involves trading your time for money...its good but can be exhausting and may not appreciate over time...and

Then the type of business that once set up, continues to bring in returns even in your absence... Like you continue to make passive income even while asleep...

It involves setting up systems that will continue to work by itself to generate income for you...and the sweetest part is that the growth potential is enormous.

You just set it up once and for all...and there won't be any need to visit it ever again except of course if you feel there's a little adjustment that need to be made.

Which is more profitable? Of course you know...

The second type is more profitable as you can simply have time to do other things that interests you, go out with your loved ones, go on vacation, and be able to take care of your family.

The second type of business is what the author of " How to make money out of thin air " Brian Sher adviced us to focus 80% of time and resources on( A very powerful book).

The truth of the matter is this...there are so many opportunities out there that makes the second type of business possible but very few are aware of it...

and the very few that are aware of it don't take action because 10k,20k is too big to free them from their financial struggle. Myopic Mindset!

You can drop your email in the comment section if you're interested in knowing some of these opportunities.

Or you do as you please.

You don't know how sweet it is having foreign clients running to work with you because of what you've to offer. I wish you can experience it...In this life, do all you can to earn in dollars. Very soon $1 will be #1000.
