With the way United is playing, I'm sure.

This is the same Leeds that they have scored 42 goals against this season already.

TV/MoviesMarvel Studios Help DC Film Cameo For Peacemaker Finale by N2B2(op): 9:05pm On Feb 19, 2022
"Peacemaker" creator James Gunn told Variety that Marvel helped DC film that surprising cameo in the show's season finale.

"Peacemaker," the hit DC show on HBO Max starring John Cena, featured a special appearance from the Justice League at the episode's climax after the team thwarted an alien invasion.

The cameos included Jason Momoa as Aquaman and Ezra Miller as The Flash. Superman and Wonder Woman also appeared as silhouettes in the scene.

Gunn wanted Momoa to appear because of a running gag about rumors that Aquaman has sex with fish.

Once Momoa was on board, Gunn got wind that Miller was a fan, and asked him to join, too.

In fact, Gunn said Marvel crews actually shot Miller's scene for the show on the set of Gunn's next feature film for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3."

"Marvel owed DC because the 'Peacemaker' crew shot my screen test for Chukwudi [Iwuji] for "'Guardians Vol. 3," Gunn said of the assist.

Gunn said Warner Media execs let him "get away with" putting the Justice League in the show.

"I just wrote it and gave them the scripts," Gunn said. "I don't think they really realized what they had agreed to until they saw what I had shot."

Gunn and Cena announced Wednesday that the critically-acclaimed show had been renewed for a season 2.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: Stanbic Ibtc Contract Staff Pls Help by N2B2: 2:18pm On Feb 19, 2022
koldej96:
Hii guys,it's been a while I've been searching for Job, I recently got an offer for a teller position as a contract staff @stanbic, pay is 50k, transportation monthly is 8-10k, please I need your sincere advice, is this good enough? what other benefit can I get working in this capacity if I should accept this offer in terms of monetary value and career? What will be your advise?
I have a Higher National Diploma and not a degree?
Career progression in the banking sector is pitifully slow.

It takes some banks years to promote contract staff to full-time staff (& that's for those lucky enough to get promoted).

That teller position is very, very stressful. You'll barely have time for yourself, not to talk of time to search for other jobs.

While you slave away at the desk & deal with rowdy customers, all while trying not to lose your mind, you won't even know when 1 year has passed. Just like that.

If there are no other options, then take it. But before you do, I suggest you plan for how long you want to stay there.

Good luck!

As is routine, I expected United to lose or draw. They've even had less possession than Brighton, while Man City is destroying Sporting in the UCL.

It's not true. UTD have players on the bench. Did Lingard not become a legend in West ham? Why bring him in 2 minutes b4 end of game? Maguire is obviously in terrible form now, why start him in every match. Fred & Mactominay are average players, why not conclude the Wilfred ndidi signing so at least you don't have midfield and defence to worry about? D guy no good, just came with useless hype of being the father of klopp & Tuchel
Lingard was playing alongside a coordinated team in West ham.

Man Utd isn't a coordinated team, neither do they know anything about team work. Why do you think Rangnick makes them do 11 vs 11 drills during training?

The only slightly above player Utd had on the bench in today's game was Elanga.

Everyone else is thrash. Thrash that cannot be rehabilitated & should be sold.

There's no hype in Rangnick. His achievements are on record, and his knowledge is real.

Even Klopp cannot save United. The problem isn't the coach. It's the players.

Ole was a terrible coach with terrible players, but Rangnick is a good coach with terrible players.

Create wonderful chances in the 1st half but fail to find the net (or score just once), and then struggle in the 2nd half before losing or drawing the game.

Your submission is so ignorantly hilarious that I wondered whether to bother responding.
As I said before, seeing the overwhelming number of NLders who have called you out and shamed you, it's no surprise you can't respond.

mollie12:
You mean you don’t know that it is possible to both be employed and be an employer of labour?
I said PAY not HIRE. The former is not something a glorified HR personnel like yourself will know anything about.

What do you think those that hire personal assistants or domestic help are doing? Why is it such a surprise to you that I’m hired and hiring at the same time?
You think you're all that because you got to interview a few personal assistants and cleaners for hire? Rofl! Now that's the definition of an ignorantly hilarious notion unworthy of a response.

And just so you know: I'm neither unemployed nor on your level. Your monthly wage might not even be enough to score an hour consultation with me. I interview my clients, not the other way around. So, sit down.

Nothing more to add. I'm sure you are one of the target unemployable folks this post set out to address.

With each rebuttal, you have corroborated my initial point. Looking for excuses to remain lazy and not make the needed changes to become employable.
Of course, you have nothing more to add, not to this rant — as you've been unceremoniously shamed — or to growth of entry-level employees who know their worth.

My payout rate was NGN50,000 per week (that comes to NGN200k per month) for fresh graduates because I wanted to give young people a chance.
Facing criticism for your rant — instead of the praise you expected — you've resorted to e-bragging.

Have you forgotten you said: ... One of the HR staff keeps coming to our side of the office almost every day that they are looking for candidates to fill this role...

Are you an employee who pays other employees? Lol! You can't even lie well.

My payout rate was... because I wanted to give young people a chance.
Nah. Your workplace is not a charity, and neither you nor your boss are saints.

Your boss is paying graduates for the time & effort they spend for the business.

But with submissions like yours, I now see why most employers of labor insist on paying peanuts.
Another lie.

The money has gotten to your head, so you now look down on those with little to no experience.

That's why you advocate for peanut salaried and unpaid internships.

Since people don't want to take corrections and learn how to improve themselves and their value.
A stark contrast from a post you made in April 2019 decrying the very thing you're now ignorantly doing.

Here's what you said:

It was highly nauseating and ignorant to lump hundreds of students (so you've encountered some hypocrites, how many and what proportion of the total percentage of the school population? Up to 5%?) under the hypocrite tag.

You can't know that many people well enough to jump to that conclusion, and you smear the reputation of those that are not aligned that way to others.
Shame on you!
Jobs/VacanciesRe: Are Nigerian Graduates Employable? by N2B2:
An interesting write-up, @mollie2.

It presents a few hard-hitting questions.

Unfortunately, it also reads like a tirade typical of the average low-paying Nigerian employer with a god complex.

The rant starts from your title: "Are Nigerian graduates employable?"

Fresh graduates have little to no experience and will typically seek entry-level jobs to gain experience.

On average, hiring managers forward 3-4 job vacancies/offers to me each week, asking me for candidates I can refer to them for one job opportunity or the other.
Are these hiring managers looking to fill vacant entry level positions? Because there's no shortage of young graduates out there searching for their first jobs.

Let's look at some of your points.

1. Lack a can-do attitude...
Yes, a can-do attitude is a mindset valued in the workplace.

However, you mention nothing about can-do attitudes here.

Instead, because you had one bad experience, you jeer at the unemployed who lament Nigeria's failed employment systems.

The least you could do is do research on what the role entails...
That's what the job requirements section of your job posting is for. No research needed.

Religious fanaticism. You hear of candidates that tell interviewers that they cannot come to work on Fridays. Or that they have to leave early on Wednesdays for choir practice.

Imagine what the interviewers think of such candidates.
What interviewers think of such candidates is irrelevant.

How is wanting to go to church on weekdays religious fanaticism?

You seem incensed that applicants want to maintain lives outside their workplace.

The title of this point should have been: "A lack of workplace fanaticism."

4. Entitlement mentality. [Motivational speakers] sold this stupendous idea to young people that they can get a job that will earn them millions with almost zero experience.
A lie cleverly intended to mask the ridiculousness of the next statement you make.

See next quote:

They convince them to toss aside "low-paying" jobs and demand to be paid "their worth". They lie to them that only paid internships should be pursued.
I said it - a typical low-paying employer, seeking "rockstar" talents to pay peanuts to.

For those reading, never let anyone convince you that you aren't worth reasonable pay, even if you have little to no experience.

Employers don't only pay for your skill; they pay for your time and effort, too.

If you don't have in-demand, hot skills that are scarce, be ready to take up that peanut-paying job and that unpaid internship to learn what you need to learn to be in demand. It is called stooping to conquer.
It is called slave labor, indicative of the terrible workplace you run.

Conclusion:

This rant-like write-up is just a demand for employee subservience.

Unpaid internships, peanut-paying yet high-demanding jobs... all unreasonable demands of fresh graduates.

And unreasonable demands breed hostile workplaces.

Try again.

This time, try to put yourself in the shoes of the unemployed when you write.

No game is an "easy win" for Man Utd.

This Middlesbrough they're struggling against is in 7th position in the 2nd division.

I hope thunder tickled his blokos on the way out.

Admittedly, Woodward had the hands for money-making, but those same hands oversee some of the worst seasons in United's modern history.

It's a shame Ole wasn't sacked earlier. The damage he caused the club will take a while and a proper manager to fix. I was happy to see United dispose of some of the riffraff during the January transfer window.

I hope the rest of the thrash in our squad is sold at the end of the season.

The question is; what has his offensive play brought to the team? Are you aware that he adds more pressure to the defence because he doesn't return just in time? Are you also aware of more crosses coming in through his positionhuh

United should look for a better right-back who can contribute to goals and score as well because Dalot isn't doing either.
Dalot's offensive runs has made the team more dangerous down the right flank.

Dalot looks to carry the ball forward a lot, allowing Mcsauce to make piercing runs down the middle to receive a pass, and gives Greenwood/Sancho passes further forward.

Yes, Utd needs better fullbacks, but the impact Dalot has had is clear to see.

And, yes, Dalot crosses. He hasn't played as many games as AWB, but the man crosses... more accurately then AWB imho.

frankson1:
You can't compare the players you mentioned with Dalot because he doesn't provide anything in attack coupled with the fact that he's very useless defensively.
I'm not putting Dalot on their level.

I'm saying, when United is on the market for fullbacks, they'll certainly look for players that drive the ball forwards and are quick on their feet.

Dalot does that better than AWB. Dalot may not be as defensively sound as AWB, but I believe he's a better RB.

frankson1:
What has his offensive game brought, how many crosses has he made that led to a goal.
Abeg, AWB is still far ahead of him defensively.
Do you know 1 things the premiere league's big sides have in common? Offensive fullbacks.

These fullbacks can attack as well as defend. They overlap on the wings to provide width and support the wingers in bringing the ball forwards.


Cancelo, Trent, Robertson, Digne... check their stats. They overlap and cross a lot.

AWB, on the other hand, is useless. He can't keep possession, neither can he cross. All he has in his arsenal are slide tackles.

He should rest abeg.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Vs West Ham (0 - 0) On 22nd January 2022 by N2B2: 4:50pm On Jan 22, 2022
The first half is over. Here are a few things to note:

- Telles is average defensively: he doesn't run to recover misplaced passes. He's just glued to that left-wing like say him buy land there.

- Fred is useless: no creativity, no vision, and no awareness. The instant he gets the ball, his heart rate spikes, and he rushes to give it away.

- Greenwood is selfish.: the same complaint every match. He doesn't pass when he needs to.

- Dalot is selfish: Granted, he's more offensively aware than AWB, but he's becoming selfish. The instant he beats his marker, he should PASS!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Manchester United Vs West Ham (0 - 0) On 22nd January 2022 by N2B2: 4:21pm On Jan 22, 2022

If you just give am ball, e go find who to pass to fast fast. Even if it's a rubbish pass.
