Jobs/VacanciesRe: I Had The Opportunity To Sit On An Interview Panel Recently, And All I Can Say by lonelygem(m): 7:34pm On Oct 05, 2025
Hamachi:
I had the opportunity to sit on an interview panel recently, and all I can say is—many of you are simply not ready for the job market.

Let me break this down:

You couldn’t answer basic interview questions, yet when asked if you had any questions, you’re asking, “Is there any other role apart from the one advertised?” Are you here for a job or shopping around?

During the interview, you were literally pressing your phone while being asked a question. I had to call your attention before you awkwardly tucked it between your legs. Really?

You say you currently earn ₦750k, yet you’re interviewing for a role that pays ₦300k. Make that make sense. Why are you here?

You casually told the panel that your current job is your “Plan A,” and this one is “Plan B.” Since it’s a hybrid role, you’d use your free time to run your personal business. So, you’re applying for a backup plan?

You claimed to be a CFO in your previous job, but you couldn’t explain the most basic accounting principles. How does that add up?

Again, you couldn't answer key questions, but you're confidently asking if there are other positions available? Focus on the one you're failing at first.

Your sister called during the interview, asking to speak to the panel because you’re running late for a church program? Is this a job interview or a family meeting?

You said your Excel skill is 8/10, but when given a simple task, you were frozen—just staring at the screen saying, “I’ve forgotten it.” 🤦🏽‍♂️

Please, if you’re going to attend interviews, come correct.
Dress well, prepare well, act like you want the job, and most importantly—respect the process.
One thing I would do to check professionalism and confidence then was, drag them out of the pre-meditated questions and answer and dabble into reality. You immediately see them stuttering..

Someone who claimed to have good knowledge of excel spreadsheet was asked to add 1 to 100 on a spreadsheet and re-save the file in his or her name, they still miss such simple task.

At a point I kept questioning my sanity till I pleaded with a friend to handle the interview while I pose around the hall like an applicant to see if we had been fair all along. Behold, it was just all a scam on the part of the applicants.

I just had to settle for “learn on the job” tactics.
RomanceRe: Marry “I Don’t Care” Or “men Wey No Too Get Sense” – Lady Advises Women by lonelygem(m): 6:22pm On Oct 05, 2025
10thTenthMan:
But she is correct.

If a man does not care, then he does not bother you.

This is a fact.

The question can then be, ''What type of man goes out, comes back and sees his house in a mess with a wife at home and does not care''?

Show me that man, and I will show you a low value man without discipline. A man without a strong, respectable network of friends. A man without shame. A man without order in his life. A man who does not demand accountability because he himself lacks it. A man she will call a whimp and she will eventually cheat on with someone who demands accountability from her.

As per a man bickering with women, she is also correct.

A sensible man creates boundaries and enforces them, and never renegotiates them. Calling out a boundary MUST NOT INVOLVE Shouting and quarrelling. Don’t get into arguments with her, especially with logic and facts. Tell her once and enforce it. Remove time, remove resources, remove protection, remove provision, remove validation. No reaction/overreaction IS YOUR TRUE WEAPON. But how do you do these things when you do not have value way above her. If you can be easily replaced, then all you have is your self resect. Keep that intact and walk away from a woman who does not respect your boundaries. You are a man and easily manipulated to lose emotional control with someone you are to lead? Don't bring yourself down to that level. Why should I waste energy speaking with logic to a brain and mind run by emotions? Choose your words wisely. Not too much talk. Don’t argue like a child.
And when the “I don’t care attitude” extends to her feelings, she changes his name to “insensitive man”. When the “I don’t care” is extended to finances, you see them brooding about..

There is nothing anyone wants that the society does not have to offer. But if you can’t tolerate a man at his weaknesses you obviously don’t deserve him at his best..

May God save us from known and unknown evil.
PhonesRe: Why Do Samsung Phones Have Green Line On Thier Screen? by lonelygem(m): 6:30am On Oct 03, 2025
Sirmwill:
You were probably not using it heavily


Like for 3 to 4 to 5days in a row without switching off the device for a while
Exactly.
there is a point you get so used to samsung that you will find it very difficult to cope with many other devices. I sometimes use my samsung phone for months without putting it off for a day, and i don't get to bother about how many apps left on.

the truth is, you have to be mindful of your chipset as much as you are worried about phone overheating especially if you live in an area with poor network reception. This same poor network also have effect on you battery health as consequence of hotness. snapdragon 650 upwards is the jerk if you consider poor reception where you live without it posing strong effect on your battery health and tremendous hotness..
BusinessRe: What Type Of Business Can Someone Start With 200k? by lonelygem(m): 2:11am On Aug 21, 2025

Use your 200k buy foodstuff for house eat well and strategize how to make millions to start a good business, in this current Nigeria economy 200k can’t start a good business, only POS and petty business Naija don expensive with style but na we Nigerians never know
Do not generalise please. You discourage one of your youths by this assumption. Same way some people would tell you they can't make anything out of 10 million naira, some people are actually earning their living through a daily business hustle of less than a million naira.

Life is not as complex if one learn to cut his or her coat according to available resources..

happy2025:
what type of business can someone start with 200k?

please i need ideas
I feel so excited to even think a few Nigerian youths still have a mindset of starting small and growing a business with consistent but mindful effort.

Without taking much of your time, I would advise to discover yourself business wise through available resources and capital strength.

For example, every environment you find yourself has its own potential.

You may have to use some online resources to check people's mindset and most searched items and that should enable you know what to invest in.

Check out Google trend to know what people are looking for online and do some comparison. Google trend allows you to compare geographical search between commodities for example, it allows you to know if people buys phone more than they are actually sourcing for a laptop in a particular city where you live..

For example if you have the 200k to invest. You may be considering buying and reselling a laptop, a mobile phone or refrigerator. Google trend allows you compare the demand for these 3 at various time in that city. This allows you to peep before you leap.

You can invest on mobile phone for a start with that amount of money. Meanwhile you have to learn to be disciplined and consistent.

You can buy a mobile phone from a good source for like 150k, test run it for just a day to be sure of any faults then upload it on jiji. Don't be greedy, compare Lagos prices with prices in your area, it is called market scan. Then u will be able to know how much you are adding up to make you a profitable sales. Don't bebtempted to put so much as profit because your city price is so high.

Focus on turnover, how many times you can buy and resell in a week. If you make profit of 20k on each gadget you sold, and area able to run sales like 3 times a week, you are in profit of 60k per week already..

Legitimate business grow slowly and steadily with consistent and committed efforts..

May God help and bless your efforts.

All I see in this is mental derailment associated with drug influence. Mental evaluation is strongly advised…

May I remind you that Borno state is like headquarter of drugs in Nigeria at the moment, I have had encounter with a youth from Bama, who who ran away from rehab to hang around with randy friends for months in Wuse 2, Abuja.

Same youth ran out of Abuja claiming drugs is not freely dispatched and confidently sold like they had in Borno state.

FamilyRe: 7-year-old Boy Sent On Errand Hit By Car; Parents Arrested For Negligence by lonelygem(m): 12:08am On Jun 05, 2025
SmartPolician:
If a child of 7 cannot run errands for the house, when exactly will he learn how to run errands? Perhaps when he's 18? undecided Almajiris who are much younger even sleep by the roadside, begging across Nigeria. Anyways, rest in peace to the boy!
Likewise if your son cannot die by being knocked down by overzealous drivers at the age of 7, when exactly would be the perfect time for a male gender to die?? Probably at 30? A 30 year old demise is often celebrated all over south south space, so it’s actually not a big deal for you to loose a child at tender age..
FamilyRe: My Wife Caught Me With PEP, She Is Threatening A Divorce by lonelygem(m): 7:29pm On May 31, 2025
Paragonpric:
Not true...my cousin left her valuable rich husband based on infidelity issues, her husband cheated on her. She only asked him one question..""if I cheated on you in our marriage will you forgive and accept me back?"" He couldn't answer.
Rich and valuable based on your perception. His wealth might have attracted value to him and sadly, the value the woman reserved for fidelity was beyond she had for his wealth..

That is not value. Every man has a price.
A valuable person is indispensable regardless..

Even America that you all shout and carry their laws on your head, my wife's cousin, a girl of 14 years that used to fry chicken for me while they were living at Aja before they relocated abroad last year is allowed to work in a restaurant as a kid, she earn 5 dollars per hour and exempted from tax because she's a minor. She works for 4 hours daily.

In a country where some people, some vagabonds, mobs, nonentities who can't even sustain an exemplary etics of credible and sane governance, people who can't even effectively manage a typical African home with fairness, sincerity and humanity expected of a leader, were selectively made to champion decisions in a country full of renowned professors from various folds of discipline.

Majority of our lawmaker are capital disgrace to Nigeria as a country and Nigerians as citizens.

What more have one not seen within Nigerian Senate walls?? 'Slapping senator', 'Ubber attacker senator'.. all these attitude makes one to question the efficacy of that process that peg the wings of Senate on their shoulders.

This case of Natacha is a clear eye opener.

Subtle method of preplanned bully. Quite a shame and unfair!

So, you are smart for your mind be that oh. Were all these things you just highlighted as excuses to unleash your premeditated evil towards this lady not there when u started with her?? And I want to believe she must have interacted kindly with you on financial grounds, out of love and pity for your condition in the cause of your sexual exploitation period with her.

Just fear God in all you do and do onto others what is expected to be done to you or your loved ones.

Whenever a man have to struggle and can't find a tangible point to hold onto in laying off a partner, it's a clear indication that such woman is a good woman.

Karma no de miss address bro. My humble advice..

Rhymesy:
I am currently in a dilemma,I don't know the step to take. I came across a lady last year October after defending my Bsc .We started flowing with each other to the extent we fall in love for each other. As times goes ,I realized that she was not privilege to further her education.My love for her began to decay. After my defends,my parents have not been sending me money again and life began to be tougher for me. She is working in fast food restaurants as a manager of the restaurant and her brother is in Malta and do sent her funds.She has contributed to my wellbeing both financially and materially. I have attempted to break up with her for 3 times but each time I planned I couldn't do it because I still have a soft touch for her. I constantly told her if a good man comes her way that she should consider because I currently don't have the financial capacity to proceed her marital rites all these are just excuses to make her have a second thought about me. I stop sleeping with her since last year December because I don't want to exploit her any longer. The truth of the matter is that this lady is older than me. I am currently 29 while she is 32. I don't know the step to take because I don't want her to be devastated and sad. Please nairalanders , I need you guys help.
