Anyone has real life experience about living in St. Louis, Missouri. Is it really as dangerous as publicized online?

Stayed in St Louis for about three months, it is a peaceful city..

Apple has lost their swagger..

hammed71:
Kroger can I get work outside Nigeria with just comptia A+(no computer science degree, my degree is in the Arts department)

Certification is the key right now in IT. As long as you have a degree irrespective of what u studied but have the targeted certification you are good to go.

shiffynaani:
have checked the site out sir. I don't have any knowledge about computer except the basic skill. Can i still start? How do i find companies that need the skill if am through with it. Pls don't mind my naive question

You can start from the basics like comptia A+ then CCNA routing and switching.. From there security + then move into cyber security.

Where are you located?

shiffynaani:
HELLO SIR. Pls how can i learn this cloud work sir? Pls help

You can use cybrary.it.. I learnt most of my skills from there..

royalads:
We live in a world of skills and certifications and not university degrees. Eg, have you heard of cloud computing before now? It is a tech skill and most people in the field earn at least 500k and above. Combine tech skill with management skills and you will be a hot cake. Go acquire hardcore tech skills and certifications. There are plenty of them out there.

Spot on bro, i deal with with cloud security, Though the pay is much higher over here...

opebiboy:
He dey come for una. Just wait. Thunderbolt is coming. The best way is to ignore him

Coming for who Not me cos we both know the deal

Ugosample:
wow!

a brick layer?

So you never knew That's why I stopped quoting him cos I cant belittle myself talking to a nonentity

TheEnforcer:
Lol, he actually writes like one.Incoherent ramblings, and generally crude behaviour online

No jokes he is a bricklayer... Am still trying to wrap my head as to why so he hates America so much, this is the height of lunacy.. Everyone around him is a millionaire in their thousands

Ugosample:
That timesup issa punk

I keep laughing at people quoting that brick layer of a boy called timesup234

ahiboilandgas:
u have some points sha but no need for insult ,my friend that moved to the us having temporary green card told me he trying to raise 10k dollars to improve his credit score ....i was like whooa 10k (2m) then this are sum entprenures at the top of their game make within 1 month trading ...nigeria system is problematic so it can give crazy cash like during pdp era I can hit 2m in a day if given nnpc kerosine allocations......so I was wondering if his move to American made sense

What do you mean by

he trying to raise 10k dollars to improve his credit score

DexterousOne:
Thank God for your life

I'm sure your pass degree must have been in part, due to circumstances beyond your control, not because you are dumb.

You are favoured

You are very correct sir, Nobody is dumb you only need the right environment to function. The truth is in America there is an enabling environment where you can function and showcase your God given talent..

hebenezher:
Good evening guys.

I have an issue draining my life and my emotions. It goes thus; I have just graduated from the University with a degree of 3rd class in mathematical sciences(IT). It is so hard to accept but the deed has been done and I have to start looking forward. so, I want to make an enquiry if there's chance for me to do a master in the USA with such low degree or if they also accept 3rd class graduate through PDG. please I need your advice on this.

thank you all!

Are you coming to america to just school and come back if given the VISA?

AwkaetitiBabe:
Is that one a job? Unless he's not a graduate and saving money to write jamb

It's this " I am a graduate" mentality that is killing most peeps. If you are a graduate and so what, what did you even learn in school with their archaic syllabus

sassysure:
Lucky u o!

Both their men and women are the same as far as I'm concerned. Of course there are exception but majority carry the vote.

@ Kroger, nothing puts me off like loud people.
I mean, these guys are damn too loud, i dont live in US but I have read so much about them and compared them with other races in US.
U are right, they are never their brothers keeper.
I vowed never to watch any of their movies again as u can't watch them around kids, u don't learn anything except fk u, fk u, fk u,bitchess, bitchis, nigaaa, nigaaa etc

What am.i going to do with all that?

TheEminentLaity:
Leave that Ugosample, ignorant AF. Do the so called 'mentally defeated' Nigerians in Nigeria behave as african americans do towards foreigners, even towards other africans amongst them? The guy hasn't lived in the US is here joining that ässwipe of Akata that insults the whole of Africa and Nigerians saying Nigerians and African Americans are the same. I'm sure where you live your life has not been threatened by Ivoriens neither have you been discriminated against.

You are most likely to be robbed, shot, stabbed or and discriminated against in the US by an Akata than any other person, ten times over. And it'll be one low-life scrounger for that matter. Dude is just online yapping rubbish. Shame on you for discrediting hardworking Nigerians and Africans in diaspora and in Nigeria comparing them that group of people. You think watching music videos, sports and 24 is the real america. Let's hope you eventually find yourself in america if you want to migrate and experience first hand or maybe your children then you may find out that even CIV and Nigeria may be safer to live in than many places in america.

Just look at him supporting a culturally lost and condescending low-life that was obviously derailing the topic, as if the thread is about developing Nigeria. Nigerians talking about immigrant experiences and preferences and a frustrated Akata comes here to insult all of us and tell blatant lies about 'very succesful' black americans. Someone who hasn't even seen anywhere else in the world, no foreign experience whatsoever to speak of and some of you commend those ignorant bigoted comments even against your kinsmen.

Nigeria bad Nigeria bad but don't fück with the resolve and resilience of Nigerians. We are everywhere and are breaking barriers and trailblazing regardless. So keep your self-hating 'black people are the same' crap to yourself. I know where I'm from and who my ancestors are and we are NOT like Akata in anyway.

Boy!!!!!! I duff my hat for you sir you really nailed it. Its until you have seen it first hand then you can relate. Wetin musa never see for gate.

sassysure:
African Americans my people are trying so hard to emulate

Watch them in entertainment, very classless.
Use crude words, always naked, so fake and extreemly lazyset of people to behold.

I have watched entertainment across the world and theirs are yet to evolve, like naija
Serious countries don't like to invite them over cos they have nothing to show.
Watch Beyonce talk, so classless.
Nothing stops them from home schooling even as entertainers.
It's shaking fake bwest and asss up and down.
Always violent, shouting on top of their voices with entitlement mentality.

you are very funny .. You are so very true at the Bolded.. AA dont have family at all, when it comes to money issue they dont have family. I have seen first hand an older mum staying with her daughter but she must pay part of rent and bills . God forbid my mum comes to stay with me and she will be paying part of the rent. I have seen a lady throw her mum out in the cold cos they have a misunderstanding . I always laugh when they talk about their uncle and aunty cos within me i know when the time comes reverse is the case.

I have said this before i was at Missouri some months ago and i drove to an all white county, i went to a nearby walmart and it was very decent, the next day i drove to a county dominated by black, i went to the walmart an lo and behold i saw policement all round, sagging thugs, weird people it was a mess. My question is cant these peeps just act like a normal human being?

Ugosample:
and what makes you think I have not had encounters with AA folks?

Do you know me at all

I will never engage in this foolishness of this superiority complex battle between AA and Nigerians when it's obvious no side is better

just two disadvantaged people in the world stage fighting for who is more superior


if that makes you happy
You can continue

Its not about superiority complex its about acting a foo.l when there is plenty enough to go round and putting the blame society, govt etc. You are solely responsible for being a failure or a success. I have seen some even blame the immigrants that sold their ancestors to slavery

Celepope:
I repeat if you have never lived amongst them, please kindly save us your words of hypocrisy and steak with watching their music videos on TV. I cannot stand people who are neither hot or cold. Allow those who have first hand experience to voice their views on them. Shalom.

I tell you bro, in as much as i hate saying all these but the truth is bitter, if i talk some of my experience for over 5 years living withing these peeps Nairaland wont contain it.. I am done talking jare..

Ugosample:
lmao

me i no be hypocrite o

I will not just side naija for something sense less
that's all....

The whole back and forth between AA and Nigerians are not just worth it

that's just fact

Its not worth it at all. but that AkataWoman really pushed me to the wall.

Ugosample:
many black Americans
especially the ones from not so good families

are DEFEATED MENTALLY

MENTALLY DEFEATED people are not in the right frame of mind to achieve anything
even if you give them all they need

It is a mind that is not DEFEATED that can achieve whatever he wants to achieve

Black Americans from good families and are level headed are just as good as anyone else

once you are mentally defeated
it's finished for you men

save that mentally defeated theory, how are they mentally defeated??

Celepope:
Nigerians and their over hypocrisy. Their penchant for aligning with foreigners against theirs stinks to high heaven. You and that other guy Ugosample solely ignored the way that daft akatawoman (mad dawg) has been insulting a people of over 200 million (Nigerians) by calling them all kinds of name including poverty stricken, ritualists and uneducated but are quick to respond to my comment when i responded with brute force. Perhaps you guys have an ulterior motive for wanting to take side with her. But i want the two of you to know that if you are still carrying the Green passport and decide to talk down on Nigeria most especially that Ugosample then shame on you both. I no longer carry the Nigerian passport but i won't let a nitwit.t who is not worthy to even stand toe-to toe with an average Nigerian in America talk down on Nigerians all because of a faceless forum.

Dont mind those Hypocrites...

Ugosample:
That is not to say Africans are any better tho

Africans in general are just as shitty and useless as African Americans

so like I said before
it's pot calling kettle black

we need to sit up and develop ourselves and our communities/families

black folks are botyom feeders by vast majority everywhere they go
That has to change man

i understand that we blacks have our short comings, but when you have all the necessary opportunity in place to prosper but still act daft and play the victims card then something is not right somewhere.

Babyvet:
It seems like you have great disdain for African Americans . Did they hurt you?

I am so done with them, i have gradually remove them from my circles, am moving to a more white neighborhood for good.. My boss once told me he cant stand working with black Americans as he prefers immigrants, i asked why he said same thing i have been talking about. That is why they were named AKATA.

Quintacs120:
Akatawoman seems like a very hateful woman who has probably been turned down by an African. I live here in the US. She’s saying black American women are one of the highest educated group in America. That’s a total lie. 80 percent of them are clueless and no nothing. What they care about is fucking, having babies and always blaming the system. Even white Americans, Asians and other groups don’t regard them and tend to avoid them completely. It’s so sad I would have to say this. I do hangouts with black Americans. 80 percent of my co/workers are black Americans and I know them. We get along very well and I don’t like to say anything negative about them. I can bet you that a white woman or Asian would prefer to interact and do business with an African than a black American. I have dated black American women, dated a white woman, dated a Spanish woman but I would say if you want something serious you’ve got to always go for a white woman. 80 percent of African American women are don’t know what love is. They are incapable of showing love and have no morals. I have hangout with them and I know them. I work for a delivery company in nyc and I have been to every corner of the city. There are many instances where I get treated better than my African American colleagues when we’re out on a run.

You are 100% correct on your assertion, this same AkataWoman quoted me on another thread saying the Black American women are the most educated.. I chose not to reply cos if i do all hell will let loose.. They are so very daft, nothing to write home about.. Just to have s.ex and make babies with no father polluting the country.. They have no manners always hyper, all they care about is using their last dollar to fix nails, eye lashes and hair.

Come to work mba they will not come, always calling out of work yet they want money. Always broke begging for gas money. I know this people as i am done with them for good. America would have gone far if these black american folks could contribute just 10% of their brain. The whites own companies, Farms etc, Asians have created a niche, in hotels, gas stations, science and technology etc, The mexicans landscaping business, Plumbers, house builders, anything handy. The black american nothing absolutely, some say sports, how many % of blacks are in sports compared to the rest. U see immigrants come here, share ideas, work hard and live the american dream, yet they get jealous, if you are jealous come let me show you how we do it, mba they still will not hear. Abeg let me stop here before i damage my key board

Simcha:
Brother, I got a US fiancee. Although we've never met in person but soon we will. What are the steps to become a worker in the IT industry. I got a zero knowledge about programming and stuffs but I love to browse the web. What trainings will you suggest I do as newbie here before relocation? I mean trainings that's gonna be presentable at the embassy interview, so that will show I can provide for my family after marriage. I'm a versatile person, I believe I can make it in the IT field. I don't wanna be a nurse as every Nigerian immigrant are becoming so in the US( I'm currently 100lvl pharmacy student in a federal university) I'm studying that course because medical courses are mostly the only marketable professions in Nigeria unlike in the US where there many opportunities.

Hey bro, i will advice you start from the basics of computer i.e A+ and CCNA, it will be very handy when you finally move down to the US and you can move into other IT fields like Network engineer, database administrator, cloud engineer or cyber security which is my major. Nursing in the US is so over rated, IT is your best bet when you move down, you can take courses online and get certified with lots of materials online the sky will be your starting point..

Beautyaddy:
Triplets!...wow!...that's a lot of expenses to handle in one stand.

And to now add all that expenses he has to dish out all by himself for the next 18 years?...hmmm!

Moreover, I really think that if your friend was in any doubt that those kids were not his he would have already gotten the DNA done before subjecting himself to all the expenses he's now faced with to pay child support for three kids.

He is the Timid type of guy, i was the one who opened his eyes to the fact that you might not necessarily be the father, i have watched a lot of paternity court i guess. you should see how this boy hustles two menial jobs just to have little money after child support deductions .. I have told him to summon courage cos the said girl is wild..
