Oh my God, Chasisco, please, please learn to type properly. Please.
And for the love of God, I'm sure your intention was PAUSE, not PULSE, but the appropriate word here is HOLD as the minimally endowed guy has corrected.

olagockay: Sirius Brown? U mean Sirius Black #HP

That's how the guy put it oh. Imagine how smug I felt when I replied "If you mean Sirius Black, Harry Potter's godfather, then it's 12, Grimmauld Place"

I'd written in my cv that I like reading, and one of the guys asked me about it.
I almost started mentioning Dale Carnegie and other motivation writers but something told me to stick to the truth.
So I said, yes, fiction mostly.
The guy just asked, "what was the name of Sirius Brown's house?

This is my second year on the job.
Edit: Someone mentioned the "where do you see yourself in five years" question. I was asked too, and I'm particularly proud of myself for the response I gave.
I gave my thinking face for a few seconds and asked "How long does it take to become First Line Manager"? Me wey I already know say na four years.

Honestly, only a few people got the writer's perspective.
I've been there before, and I simply moved on. If said friend needs me, she knows how to find me.
It can be hard to be single in this country though, considering how we feel about marriage.
Every informal interaction with family and friends carries the "when are you getting married" undertone.
On January 1, when everyone was exchanging goodwill for the new year, the only exception to this were people I knew through work. Every text, ping, call, physical greeting mentioned that God would bless me with a husband this year.
Aunts, Uncles, friends, parents friends, cousins etc. I didn't used to care, but the pressure almost got me into trouble.
Now, I tune out when they start playing that song.

Let the single lady put herself in the married lady's shoes. From what I've seen of marriage, it's tasking. And to make it last, one has to give it her all.
Plus, what kind of friend is the single lady too?

tuffgongjo: you forget to add their "marrying like 100 women out the same day$most of them sef don born finish".

Lol. . You're absolutely right! I attended one wedding where there were fifteen sisters getting married. The first one already had a child who was writing WAEC at the time oh.

Beggars were so many in that town ehn, but what I liked most was the mosque, it's really beautiful.

People and their nasty comments ehn. . . If you don't think this is a good thread, simply move on! Abi ewo ni iranu gaan?!

Anyways, mine was in Ilorin - there were several unusual stuff they took as the norm.

1. The rate they eat wara (dried milk or cheese, something like that)
Mehn, they fry, eat raw, cook, put am inside stew like meat, garnish with pepper like suya and I keep wondering what the attraction is.

Hard working women - they sell meat in the market! That one was shocking. And they had incredibly lazy men who got them pregnant every few months.

The way they respect their husbands no be small, unlike Lagos wives wey deir eye open wella.

It isn't unusual to find one smallie 25 year old boy controlling two women in his house, of which, e fit no get work oh!
One of the house officers in the hospital I served in had two wives and was working on a third, for God's sake!

Msheeew, go joor!

IGBOSON1: When i tell you guys this is one fuc/ked up country we're living in, i'll be shouted down! I bet they've already scrambled for the money Dangote donated (with specific instructions that it's mainly for Lagos state) and pilfered the lot under some spurious 'miscellaneous expenses' heading!

In one way, you can't blame the medical personnel for running away (seeing how the ones infected are being left to their own fate); yet again, it's what they signed up for, and if they know they're not up to the task the decent thing to do would be to throw in the towel and resign, while demanding that the federal and state ministries of health give those poor souls the proper treatment they deserve!

I've always said it that Nigerian Doctors, Nurses and other medical personnel are mainly materialistic, greedy, arrogant and short-tempered little hitlers, and are in it just for the money......not for some noble desire to save human life and limit human suffering! When push comes to shove, that's when they're 'shown up' for who and what they really are! Of course there's always the few decent ones still out there.....but as i stressed, they're few, and far between!

Not to belittle the gravity of the situation, but LMAO @ arrogant and short tempered little hitlers.
