XtraFortunes: I am a Christian but this makes no sense. A church just bought the land opposite my compound. Since then they just disturb with their speakers
In the daytime one can bear, but this all night disturbing is what I really dislike. You can do your all night without blasting your speakers to disturb people..
Churches and mosques should be forced to make buildings sound proof. Or hold service without speakers .
With all this disturbance Nigeria is still terribly corrupt. We have to make laws banning this torture. It is inconsiderate You don't have to wait for law; law in Nigeria is not proactive. Please, institute an action in nuisance against them. It's winnable. I hate nuisances. |

Botragelad: Did you miss the bit where they wrote during work hours? No one cares what two adults choose to do with themselves, as long as it's not done in your place of work, during work hour.
That's basically what the post is saying. You can do all of that outside of your working place, who cares. The post is not about whether or not he raped them, it's about breaking work rules by having a shag at his workplace during work hours. You kukuma have time jare. Africans don't read things.

Having said that, I am of a belief that failure is part of success, you learn from your failure to prepare for success. A botched interview strengthens you for the upcoming ones. Are you sure about your claim that "botched" is only an adjective  Lol. |

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: How To Introduce Yourself In An Interview? by LongEraser: 12:17pm On Jul 31, 2023 |
qanda: This article below from Harvard Business Review presents a very simple and effective way to introduce yourself.
Summary Many of us dread the self-introduction, be it in an online meeting or at the boardroom table. Here is a practical framework you can leverage to introduce yourself with confidence in any context, online or in-person: Present, past, and future. You can customize this framework both for yourself as an individual and for the specific context. Perhaps most importantly, when you use this framework, you will be able to focus on others’ introductions, instead of stewing about what you should say about yourself.
You know the scenario. It could be in an online meeting, or perhaps you are seated around a boardroom table. The meeting leader asks everyone to briefly introduce themselves. Suddenly, your brain goes into hyperdrive. What should I say about myself?
You start ruminating about previous self-introductions when you got tongue-tied, when you forgot to mention something important, or worse, when you rambled on for too long. Then, you realize you’re not listening to what the others are sharing. If there was a quiz on everyone’s name, you would fail.
The stress associated with introducing yourself is common and not without warrant. Everyone’s eyes and ears are on you. It’s easy to mess up. On the other hand, self-introductions are the most direct way to reinforce your desired personal brand. And they can be easy to do.
The secret is using a simple framework: Present, past, and future.
Present Start with a present-tense statement to introduce yourself:
Hi, I’m Ashley and I’m a software engineer. My current focus is optimizing customer experience.
Nice to meet you all. My name is Michael and I’m the creative director. I work in the Brooklyn office.
Of course, what you share will depend on the situation and on the audience. If you are not sure what to share, your name and job title is a great place to start. If there’s an opportunity to elaborate, you can also share other details such as a current project, your expertise, or your geographical location.
Past The second part of your introduction is past tense. This is where you can add two or three points that will provide people with relevant details about your background. It is also your opportunity to establish credibility. Consider your education and other credentials, past projects, employers, and accomplishments.
My background is in computer science. Before joining this team, I worked with big data to identify insights for our clients in the health care industry.
I’ve been at the firm for eight years. Most recently, I worked on the Alpha Financial account, where last year’s campaign won us a Webby award.
Future The third and last part in this framework is future-oriented. This is your opportunity to demonstrate enthusiasm for what’s ahead. If you’re in a job interview, you could share your eagerness about opportunities at the firm. If you’re in a meeting, you could express interest in the meeting topic. If you’re kicking off a project with a new team, you could talk about how excited you are, or share your goals for the project.
I’m honored to be here. This project is a significant opportunity for all of us.
I’m excited to work with you all to solve our clients’ biggest challenges!
That’s it for the self-introduction framework. Present, past, future. Eloquent and effective. By using this approach, you’ll not only introduce yourself better, but it also frees you from ruminating on what you’ll say when it’s your turn to introduce yourself and allows you to listen when others introduce themselves. You will also make it easy for the person who introduces themselves after you, since you’ll conclude your self-introduction with positive enthusiasm.
The next time you’re in a meeting and someone says, “Let’s go around the table and introduce ourselves,” you know what to do. Take a slow, deep breath, and think, “Present, past, future.” Then smile and listen to everyone else until it’s your turn. You got this!
