Feeling is believing dear

Feeling is nothing, seeing is everything

tearoses:
Ive never heard of them
But the way I look at it is if they are that good a company to work for, they will have people throwing cv's at them and "fighting" to work for them and not the other way round . . .unless you have a skill that no one else can offer.

Na dem sabi wetin no loss wey dem dey find up and down ....thanks a lot. Appreciate

jaybee3:

damiso:
Never heard of them ..

However all the bolder bits of the email always send alarm bells ringing.. I personally don't like Job ads that emphasise training you over the actual skill set/experience of the candidates they are looking for.

You will almost often have to pay for the 'training' before you are then 'placed' into a role.

Hahahahahahahahaha I had to go back and check their previous mails, only the initial mail had no bolded letters, subsequent ones had them. Thanks for the observation. As per the training, I guess they just want to hype themselves small.

I think I'll redirect all their mails to my trash bin now.

jaybee3:
I don't think you should bother with them. The role is going to be based on commission if successful and the negative reviews can't be ignored

Funny, the online reviews were centered majorly on pay and commission. Thanks

naijababe:
Kimoni, re: your post. I would reply the email as long as you don't have to click any links of pay kobo. As soon as either of those are suggested pick race with your legs hitting the back of your head like you are doing a butt-kick

Lol...no clicking...trust me

The online reviews were actually from their ex-staffs who complained seriously about their working conditions. So i thought I should get feedback from someone who currently works there.

I no dey ever click o

Jaybee3, Damiso, tearoses, TV01, Sagamite, naijababe, Coogar, anybody else that can help pls

Pls who has any information about Devere Group?? Their website is nice and all but I read some very bad reviews about them online. I need information about their pay, bonuses, working conditions etc. They have been sending me some series of invites which I have ignored so far because I think there is something fishy about them but they are quite persistent. I want to know if I should bother with them at all on Friday.

Buka et al. - pls sorry to bump your discssuion. Abeg no vex. I just need to make up my mind urgently.

Biko, don't we have guys that can help us bundle all4naija from this place ni? And he will never post his food o

sayoberry:
Make I join?? Are there any exercises for lazy people like me?? I like my bed a lot

Madam, you are on day what today naa

opella:
Thanks dear. Please I have a question, when I reach my target weight, how do I mantain the weight in order not to add back or slim down more?

I have a problem with weight, once I relax I start adding back with speed, please what and what should I do to maintain my target weight?

I guess you gain easily and lose easily, that's the way I am too. Maintaining the weight has come natural to me though - I can't eat when it's late anymore; unconsciously, I torchlight every food I take looking for excess oil, starch content etc. And when I miss my exercises for a few days, I just tend to start feeling funny. In short, all these checks have come natural to me and it's been helping me a lot.

DonOms:
The hot water poured into a glass cup makes heat transfer into the thickness of the glass (and tend to expand the glass molecules). The outside of the glass remains relatively cold to the inside. If the heat difference is large enough, it creates a pressure on the glass that cracks/breaks it. The metal spoon simply transfers the heat from the water to itself by conduction thereby lowering the heat in the water. This in turn reduce the pressure due to lower heat difference and glass doesn't break.

Fantastic explanation!

naijababe:
While some not letting up, some are juat lazying around o.

all join

opella:
My dear, I no wan disappear, am just loving the way I look and feel these days, you won't believe that am back to my pre pregnancy weight.

Damiso and tearoses - You realise you are only allowed to use Nokia 3310, because these expensive phone manufacturers (Apple, Samsung...) won't be happy that after selling their expensive phones to you with orisirisi organizer apps, you are both still making use of post it

@ tollu - I love that last post of yours on the boys thread. Funny but loaded. BODMAS, Texas Instruments...how the heck did you think of these things . Is Texas Instruments still in existence

I don't know what you guys are doing to me o. I just finished my usual meal of shicken and ships and I tell you guys it tasted like poison. I felt like throwing up with every bite. I don't know if it's physiological or they just prepared thrash today but I'm guessing it's the former.. As I was leaving the eatery, I turned back to have one last look at the place and I was like, "I may just never visit this place again"

damiso:
I have lost count o.. I think Saturday was my Day 21 and day 5 of Level 2 not too sure.I also did a 5k jog/run in the morning

Yesterday was ....... :-XI on the food and exercise front.

I sha did 50 weighted squats with my 2.5kg dumbbells and 3 sets of 40 secs planks in the evening( make I no lie it was all the guilt of cake, jollof rice and malt I ate) but no energy to do JM.

I lost 4kg in July ( 82kg to 78kg) my target is 71kg( which is the healthy BMI for my height) so I am hoping to do better in August.then I want to body sculpt and maintain after that.

Food has to be super clean so help me God( all this holidays,owambes,bbqs,birthday etc are not helping sha) but I am trying to be super disciplined this month. I am in this group where people are using calculator, measuring cups,calculating the calories in even veg portions( although I agree that fruits are a tricky one due to the amount if sugar trying to limit to or 2 a day ) I nefa discipline reash that level o . haa make person no come dey worship this body and vbecome OCD. I am getting scared because I tend to become OCD about certain stuff. My daughter has started telling everyone ' that's unhealthy and will make you fat ' and I know say na me.

Are you kidding me you looked leapacious in ur facial pix I saw. I thought you would be like 60kg worst case.

You are on point!

@edwife, damiso, naijababe and all,
let me give my perspective on the youthfulness, singlemumness and what have you thingy from a more general perspective. Caveat, I'm not intelligent enough to concentrate for long periods though, I tend to drift

As a man, being the head of the house is not up for argument, it's a fact that exists much the same way the Sun will set in the west and rise in the east. It's not something to be discussed, personally I don't get into arguments about submission and what not because for me being the head is not an enjoyable task, it's something that is expected of me. It means I'm responsible for the unit, its failures are my failures, its successes are mine as well, being the head of the family exposes you to the burden of command.

Anyone that thinks being the head of the family is a cake walk doesn't yet understand what responsibility is, such a person is like a soldier that is still tripped by the fact that all his subordinates snap to attention once he passes by but has failed to realize that he is responsible for their lives. In civilian terms, it's like someone who just got promoted and is tripped by the fact that his approval limit is now up to a million naira from zilch, he is yet to realize how much value he is expected to create.

If I'm going to bear that burden, it makes sense for me to choose the best team/unit possible, I need to be sure that the burden I carry will be worth it. If I'm going to have to protect, provide for and love a woman for the rest of my life I'd be darned if I choose a partner for whom my ability to give my all would be in doubt, in simple english, the juice has to be worth the squeeze. To some, it might involve youth, to some it might involve tribe, to some it might involve intellect but the fact is that the man(and of course the woman too) owes it to himself to give the union he will head the best shot at succeeding.

This is what we face as men, so pardon me if I try to analyze women down to a "T", or if I relegate the mish-mash of hormones(or what have you) we call love to the background, the fact is that I am on a mission, it would be nice if you loved me and worshipped the ground I walk on but then if that means I have to lose site of my mission then to hell with love(well sorta...lol).

Truthfully speaking though, love or whatever we choose to call it is part of the factors we need to consider and so it cannot be thrown away but the fact is that for some men it might not make the top 5 considerations for choosing a marriage partner.

Tearoses beat me to it but this is a very logical and straightforward post. Makes soo much sense overall.

A few comments -

1. I also can't concentrate for long, my attention span is very short. Glad I found a brother.
To avoid drifting, I'll number my paragraphs to guide my thought process. Note also that my response is not just me responding to you, it's me thinking aloud...

2. The best part of ur write up is the emphasis on the responsibility of the head and not the title. I see that a lot of guys get carried away with the title but in all honestly, if men were to focus on the responsibility attached to 'headship" rather than the title, there would be less marital issues (my opinion). I say this because you would be so engrossed in how to move your ministry forward that you would have little or no time for side distractions and unwarranted ego trips.

3. It's okay for guys to sit together to discuss how to choose the best mates for their teams, very rational behaviour but remember it's not a one way thing. Your main partner is going to be leaving the comfort of her family to start from the scratch with you, she is going to abandon her beloved father's name to take up yours, both of you are going to be rearing children together but those kids will take only ur name and none of hers ...I can go on forever on the sacrifices ur team mate will be making just to make a success of this journey you are inviting her on. So my point is, during your permutation and combination on how to get the best mate, remember it's not all about you, it's not just about she fitting into your life, it's about both of you fitting into each other's lives.

4. Lastly, I am not sure if love is one of the least factors that should be considered like you guys say. For me, I'll say it's actually the most important. A lot happens in marriage that you would only overlook simply because you love the person. At that stage, factors like age, beauty, wealth and other materialistic factors becomes irrelevant. Only love counts!!! You can say I think like this cuz I'm female but I refuse to believe that love affects only the female species. You can tick all my box, but if I don't love you, then it's not going to happen. And yes, I am talking from experience. In my dating days, I had guys who had everything I wanted in a man, infact, over possessed the qualities I wanted but it just didnt click and I had to let go after friendzoning for a while. I consider it a lifetime of torture living your whole life with someone you have no feelings for. Everything the person does would surely irritate me. Again, you can say I am being unduly emotional cuz I am a female but I still refuse to believe that men don't do the unbelievable for love. I read yesterday of the wedding between the richest black man in the US, a portfolio investor I think, getting married to a playboy model where is the logical correlation?? I have seen more enough to be convinced otherwise. In choosing a partner, I'll say follow your heart, but take your brain with you.
