Mrval20: I've been reading this post from the day it was created (yes, from 2009), and ALL my questions have been answered! Special thanks to Mr Ajanlekoko, Netotse, Oyb, Wallie, Lekside, Naijababe and everyone who has contributed constructively. God bless you all. I'm in my final year, going for power option.. eventually things will get better, but in the short term I dont think it will change soooo much, there's still a lot to be done especially as concerns the financial part of the privatization. Send me a nairaland PM and I'll reply via email. |

aryzgreat: Counting d days, my mind is telling me dis job wil be a hot cake in d nearest future, former NNPC MD has just been appointed to head TCN. This is a gud news. I believe d new head wil look into our remuneration and make it be like NNPC.pipe dream of the highest order...it appears you don't understand the power sector well enough. As an engineer It's important you are able to see the big picture so you can position yourself, TCN can be a funny place to work. @He is alive it's your choice...best of luck |

@those saying Sanusi didnt do sh*t you have to admit he has been able to get a grip on inflation, plus his stunt with the CRR is helping to reign in banks and their crazy profits. I agree, TOE shouldnt be abywhere near CBN, I'd go with either Sarah Alade or Aig... 1 Like |

He is alive: Good morning everybody. As we draw closer to our resumption day, I found out that it is very essential to have a secure forum PURELY FOR THE APPOINTED ENGINEERS by TCN where sincere information and technical know-how would be exchanged by the members: which some people had clamored for in the past. Pardon me, are you implying that people that arent imployed by TCN dont have any information or technical knowhow you guys might find useful? Take my advice for it, you would be better served opening a new thread on NL and naming it 'transmission engineers corner' or something...the best engineers are those that freely share knowledge. 4 Likes |

Family / Re: My Brother In Law Slapped Me Twice And Beat Me Up!! by netotse(m): 6:34pm On Nov 05, 2013 |
Abali1: Guy...I dont care about the guy, he was totally wrong to have slapped the babe, I agree the OPs sister needs to be careful as he would probably batter her if she points at him too. that said...OP clearly has anger management issues, I'm surprised a lot of people seem to think she is blameless in this matter tbh it's impressive she was honest enough to tell us what actually happened. |

chaircover: But seriously that man should be watched God forbid what will she say if when she hit him with the kettle he slumped and died. Both parties were wrong in this case, it's all too simple to dress the woman up as a victim. |

@thread the BIL should not have laid his hand on OP, he has no right whatsoever. that said, OP comes across as rude to me: she told the sis she has started something and should be prepared to finish it, isn't that a petty statement?(we all make such statements, I know...doesn't make it right) She said she didn't know when she started moving towards BIL, if that isn't a provocation, what is? everyone knows those rude girls that stand in your face and shout at you, what are they asking for? love and affection? (once again BIL was wrong to have slapped her). OP wants us to tell her BIL was wrong and castigate him all the while ignoring the fact that she contributed her fair share to the whole scenario...rubbish and nonsense. @OP be the bigger person, apologize for the part you played in the mess(I did not say for being beaten) then stay away from them. |

hey pple, This thread has been largely abandoned, I've contributed to that I cant lie...lol. Wrote a certification exam with SON(standards org of nigeria) on friday and that exam was tough o...no amount of cramming could have saved you if you didn't understand the principles, their staff were professional, friendly and competent (even though they veered off-point a couple of times during the training). I wont lie, I thought it would be a biz as usual exam so I had crammed the relevant standards (you need to see the mnemonics I used mennnn), hopefully I should pass sha *fingers crossed*. On the work side, life outside of maintenance has not been easy o...I no longer work crazy hours but my stress levels have not improved and then the politics involved in this role dey tire me, I'm by far the most junior person out of the people I have to deal with most of the time so persuasion is the most powerful tool available to me(I'm kinda used to browbeating people...lol), I am trying to improve on my communication skills though we'll see how that goes...lol. 1 Like |

Chriscj: Please i need your advice. I'm through with my HND in Electrical Engineering(power option), between DE and PGD which is better?PGD, you already have a HND why go back to start in year two because you want a Bsc? A PGD is shorter plus you might even be able to work part time sef...my two cents |

Hey PPle, My sleep for the rrst of the night has been killed, Was woken up a few mins ago cause there was an outage at the power olant means the two product plants would have crash stopped, second time this month and 4th or 5th time this year, wiaiting for them to come and pick me to work to sort some stuff and mennnn I'm feeling the weight now...bigtime. Somehow I cant remember being this tense/stressed when I was in maintenance, I need to go on leave soon o...need to take time to adjust properly. I can feel the hawks begining to circle...lol. |
Career / Re: A Harsh Take On Locally-Trained Nigerians by netotse(m): 9:56pm On Jun 12, 2013 |
It's lazyness that has stopped me from contributing to this thread o...(yep I'm locally-trained)...lol. I'm also guilty of super-aggressiveness, a lot of times I approach issues with a 'if this guy should say the wrong thing...by mistake he will hear it hot mentality. Thankfully more often than not I am able to avoid putting my foot in my mouth but without doubt, pple that work closely with me know I have one or two loose screws For me it developed as some form of defense so I dont get taken advantage of, not saying it's proper though. @Boss We need to catch up o, been a while. |

kaboninc: Would like to know what industry you are so I can at least understand you technical terms. Am thinking its the Petroleum industry but I want you to be specific though you may not mention the name of the company. Thanks Petro-kini? no o, I'm not chopping oyel money...I roll with his much poorer cousin, manufacturing. Of which, which technical terms are you referring to? me I've renounced technical terms o, these days my weapon of choice is a spreadsheet @thread Prepared my first forecast from scratch by myself, was pretty interesting...after I was done I was worried about two things: 1. that I will email it to the guy who requested it and he will rubbish it. OR 2. that it was too realistic and if the plant failed to beat it, na so so red go fill my cost tracking sheet. The guy seems ok with it(he's a finance guy though, what do they know ) as for the second fear, we'll deal with that one month by month. |
Career / Re: Welcome To My Office by netotse(m): 8:46pm On May 30, 2013 |
Hey ppl, been a while, just haven't been able to get myself to post here... Got offered the new role in Jan, acted(without letter) for four months and got a promotion letter some weeks back, some people were let go that same day, all in the name of restructuring o...smh, that day I'm sure next to no work was done in all the locations of the company, the whole exercise made me resolve to be more strategic, of which someone said something that day: "you cant be passionate about your job if you've seen a retrenchment"...funny statement, sounds sensible at first until your brain processes the fact that it's actually an excuse not to put in your best. I'm glad I'm no longer in maintenance now o, equipment seems to be breaking down left, right and center esp in my former section. While the proud fool inside me says "it wouldn't happen if I was still there", another part says "better thank your stars o, which english would you have spoken if it happened?"...I'm especially glad that with the way things are setup here it'll be near impossible for them to move me back to maintenance sha...I'm sooooo done with field wahala. These days fuel levels, forecasts and run hours are more my kinda thing Of course the new position has its own wahala:I live in constant fear of hearing my phone ring with NGC-*** being displayed on the caller ID, had some problems with gas over the past couple of months and everytime it happens my costs for the month are ruined . I was set to break a record this month by delivering the lowest unit cost of Power since the begining of operation but a vandalised gas pipeline somewhere down south put paid that , God dey sha there is still the remainder of the year for me to break records. Another fear is a power outage o, if the power plant goes down, the losses in production are unholy even if we restore power in less than 30mins, since production crash stopped it'll take hours to restart and ramp up On a final note, I can see first hand how not having a working power sector is stifling the Nigerian economy...Power costs are not beans o...not in the slightest. @My Boss 1 Like |
