When I saw the line up, I knew this was going to be the outcome.

Unai Emery is a good example. Sevilla and Aston Villa.

success1smyn:
He has a valid point. I don't like doing this kind of argument. Having good players only don't win games. We have seen top managers turn average and below average teams into formidable teams. But you can't expect a top manager to go about searching for below average teams (who can even afford his services) because he want to prove a point. It doesn't make sense. Guardiola is arguably the best manager in football history and he doesn't need to accept a particular job just to prove that. He has made it clear that he's taking a break from football and we have to take it like that. When he was coming to the premier league, people like you doubted him and he has proven himself. He turn the premier league into farmers league and even leave a lasting legacy in the premier league that today, it's his type of football that ruling not only the premier league, but world football.

Was that the case when he was at Bayern and Barcelona?

Heavenly Father,

Today, I lift every woman waiting for the gift of a child into Your loving hands.

Lord, You see the tears she cries in secret, the smiles she forces in public, and the silent prayers whispered every night. You know the pain of another negative test, the ache of unanswered questions, and the weight of waiting that no one else truly understands.

Father, wrap her in Your unfailing love. When hope feels distant, be her strength. When fear whispers that it will never happen, remind her that You are still the God of miracles.

Comfort every hurting heart. Heal every broken place. Touch every womb, every hormone, every organ, every medical condition, and every situation that stands in the way of conception. Let Your healing power flow through her body.

For those trusting You naturally, make a way. For those on medication or undergoing treatment, let every procedure succeed. For those who have experienced miscarriage or loss, heal their hearts and restore their hope.

Lord, replace anxiety with peace, disappointment with joy, and tears with songs of celebration. Let every waiting season end with a testimony that only You could write.

May no woman waiting for a child lose herself in the waiting. Remind her that she is deeply loved, wonderfully made, and never forgotten.

We declare that one day, these prayers will become baby dedications, grateful tears, and joyful laughter in homes that once knew only silence.

Until that day, hold every TTC mom close. Strengthen her faith, surround her with love, and let hope rise again.

In Jesus' mighty name,

Amen.

Crazy things are happening

4Bedroom Bungalow For My Dad in his hometown Akwa Ibom State

Grace Found me

Do you have a rough estimate of what it cost to put this up?

This is one of those situations where motivational quotes won't pay rent or put food on the table. At this point, survival becomes the priority.

If I found myself in this position, I would swallow my pride and focus on getting any honest income while still applying for jobs. A temporary job is not the same as giving up on my career. I would do whatever is legal and dignified—sales, delivery support, security work, factory work, loading/offloading, cleaning, dispatch support (even without riding), market assistance, or daily-paid labor. The goal is to stop the financial bleeding.

I would also tell trusted people exactly what I'm facing. Many people suffer in silence because they're ashamed. Sometimes opportunities come through people who simply didn't know you needed help.
Since over 70 applications and 8 interviews haven't resulted in an offer, I'd ask someone in HR or an experienced recruiter to review my CV and interview performance. If interviews are happening but offers aren't, there may be something that can be improved.

I'd also speak to my landlord and my children's school before the deadlines. It's far better to have an honest conversation early than to disappear when payments are due. Some landlords and schools are willing to give extra time when they see genuine effort.

Finally, I'd remind myself that losing a job is not losing my value. Many people have gone through seasons like this and found their way back. The key is to stay alive, stay honest, keep applying, and keep creating opportunities to earn, no matter how small, while waiting for the breakthrough.

To anyone in this situation: you're carrying a heavy load, but don't carry it alone. Ask for help. Keep moving. One opportunity can change everything. ❤️

Over 70 applications monthly
Over 8 interviews no offer

Can't drive and dont even have access to anyone to give car or Maruwa

Wife can't work due to health issues

New school fees is coming

Feeding is a pure struggles
Data is by connect for me, I fit see 1G

In situation like this after all your struggles and ended up in this state, what Will you do next?

Forget about new skills ooo.

dollytino4real:
I really need a temporary separation which can lead to a permanent divorce or brain resetting of two of us but no help from friends families and church members, and the joy in me is gone,, what can i do to get financial help which is really the key point

I'm really sorry you're going through such a painful season. From what you've shared, it sounds like you're emotionally exhausted, and I'm glad you reached out instead of keeping it all to yourself.

If you believe a temporary separation will give you both the space to think clearly and prioritize your well-being, that's a decision to make carefully and safely. But before making any major decision, try to ensure you have a practical plan, especially financially.

If finances are the biggest challenge, consider reaching out to organizations that support women in crisis, trusted community groups, or government and nonprofit programs that provide temporary assistance. You can also explore short-term work or income opportunities if that's possible for you.

Most importantly, don't carry this burden alone. Even if you feel friends, family, or church members can't help, try to speak with someone trustworthy, such as a professional counselor or a domestic violence support service if your situation involves abuse or you don't feel safe.

You deserve to be safe, supported, and at peace. One step at a time. I'm praying that you find clarity, strength, and the right help during this difficult period.

Mid-Week Roles

Your background may explain where you started, but it does not have to determine where you finish.

If you grew up in a family that struggled financially, don't spend your life chasing money. Chase the knowledge, skills, and opportunities that create money.

Learn a valuable skill. Master a craft. Build expertise that solves real problems.

Money comes and goes, but knowledge stays with you. The right knowledge can open doors no one can shut and create opportunities no one can take away.

Your greatest investment is not in things—it's in yourself.

Learn relentlessly. Grow consistently. Stay valuable.

Your future will thank you for it.

Zaynkad:
Please were are the links to the remote jobs thanks

Enjoy your weekend 😃

The situation is understandable from both perspectives, but there are a few things worth separating.

Your feelings are valid because:

You went out of your way to help someone get their first opportunity.

You invested your reputation by referring them.

Soon after, they followed you to another unit without discussing it openly beforehand.

Their comment about regretting not taking the other offer could easily sound like they were implying your unit was only a second choice, making your help feel unappreciated.


At the same time, your colleague also has the right to pursue whatever opportunity they believe is best for their career. Once they became an employee, their career decisions became their own. They don't owe it to you to remain in a unit simply because you helped them get in.

Where I think your colleague could have handled things better is in communication. Since you were the one who referred and supported them, a conversation like, "I've decided to apply to the new unit because it aligns better with my goals. I hope you don't feel I'm stepping on your toes," would have shown respect and appreciation. Their "I regretted not taking the offer" comment was also insensitive, even if they didn't intend it that way.

Regarding your former manager, unless you actively encouraged or recruited your colleague to leave, you shouldn't carry that guilt. Managers know employees move internally for many reasons. If anyone asked, you could simply state that their decision was entirely independent of yours.

Going forward, it may also help to set a personal boundary. Referring someone is a generous professional favor, but it doesn't make you responsible for managing their career afterward. You opened the door; it's up to them to decide where they walk.

Overall, I don't think either of you is entirely wrong. Your colleague was entitled to pursue a better opportunity, but they lacked tact in how they communicated it. Your disappointment comes less from the move itself and more from feeling that your efforts weren't acknowledged and that they appeared to be following your path without considering how it affected you professionally. That's a very human reaction.

Your honesty is refreshing, but honesty should still be strategic. An introduction to potential employers is meant to make them think, "This is someone I'd like to interview."

A few things to improve:

Don't start by saying, "I need money, not a job." While it's true for almost everyone, employers want to know what value you'll bring to them, not your financial motivation.

Avoid statements like "I'm not a fast learner." Even if you explain it later, many recruiters won't read that far. Instead, say something like, "I take time to understand new concepts thoroughly, and once I do, I apply them confidently."

The section about not believing in hard work could easily be misunderstood. Employers may interpret it as unwillingness to put in effort. You could instead say you believe in working efficiently, improving processes, and delivering results.

Lead with your strengths. Mention your degree, NYSC completion, writing experience, problem-solving ability, curiosity, and willingness to learn before discussing your work philosophy.

End with a clear call to action, such as:

"I'm actively seeking entry-level opportunities where I can contribute, learn, and grow. If you know of any openings or can provide a referral, I'd greatly appreciate it."

Overall, he comes across as intelligent and thoughtful, but he needs to present himself from the employer's perspective. The goal isn't to tell them everything about yourself—it's to make them want to contact you. Save the deeper philosophies for the interview, where they'll likely be appreciated rather than misunderstood.

Reverseng:
Hello. My name is Christian.

Before I begin this post, I feel it wise to outline these details about myself as your potential employee:

1) I need money, and not a job. The job is one means to the money. The 2 ways I know of getting money are: to be gifted or to work for it the right way. The gifts are not forthcoming, yet.

2) I don't believe in continued hardwork for hardwork sake. I believe hardwork should lead to smart work and more smarter work, so as to create time for other aspects of my life that demands my attention.

3) I don't believe suffering is hardwork.
If my grandfather was made to look hardworking/busy while chopping firewood and I'm made to look lazy because I now use a gas cooker, then so be it.
I don't just want to work so as to look busy/hardworking or to clock attendance and receive a monthly paycheck. I seek something fulfilling and impactful that is likely to reduce human suffering. Achieving this will make me die happy.

4) I admit that I'm not really a fast learner, but when i understand, I understand.

Alright, now that that's out of the way

I'm a second class upper Petroleum and Gas Engineer graduate from Nigeria Maritime University, Delta who recently acquired his NYSC completion certificate in April.

Although I studied a high end course, and it might scare off some employers because it might give them the impression that I'm 'strictly' high-end, I'm not. I'm high-end, but not strictly.

I do not limit myself to the oil sector, as you'll see that in my pastime/ profile posts here on nairaland that i'm a curious reader and a writer also. I've authored 2 e-books so far.

I'm in my mid 20s, currently not employed, residing in Lagos (Shuffling Shangisha Magodo and Iju-ishaga) and you can reach out to me via nairaland DM or a suggested method you feel comfortable with.

I'm also open to referrals too, that's if you don't mind.

Thank you
