Why Una dey take ur own hand distort ur career? Why did u not obtain a PG in elect/elect or same hnd course so that u can proceed for an Msc in elect/elect? That way, u stand a chance of being given a lecturing position. Infotech is highly bastardised these days. To make matters worse, u don't have a first degree in the course

No body hurts who God protects.but the Igbo 37 years old named mIcheal igwu or something that marries 12 years old Enugu Igbo girl should be stone to death right?and make sure you comment at that thread go and comment mr hatter
I am igbo. But I support ur views on this matter. Yunusa does not deserve to be detained. (Read my earlier post just above this one on the matter)
I believe it is unjust. But u shud not tribalise the issue.

DickDastardly:
Have they not hanged that awusa goat?
why shud he be hanged? This issue is being over flogged.
The girl ese was a spoilt brat, the product of bad parenting. She Was a willing and ready accomplice.

The only crime that yunusa committed was ignorance borne out of no education. He never knew, just like many other pple, that it was a crime to date a minor.

Unfortunately, our damaged judicial system and hypocritical human rights crusader knew how to blow things out of proportion for their own selfish gain.
And the poor boy has no one to fight for him. I understand he was 17 Abi 18 years.
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Tony Elumelu Meets Placard-Carrying Jobless Lady by obstead200(m): 6:50pm On May 24, 2016
Ferdinandu:
Elumelu is an Entrepreneur. Every successful Entrepreneur knows that it takes someone with mind to do things from established norm to succeed. Very few people can have the mind to do what the girl did. Elumelu knows that the girl can be an asset if channeled properly.
this is another very logical perspective of looking at the issue

If I were a 2.1 graduate of computer science, I cannot be jobless.
Someone intelligent enough to mAke such grade shud have been wise enough to follow it up with vintage and competitive IT certifications.
But am not surprised. Go to our tertiary institutions and see how this 2.1 is obtained these days. These children are brainless.

I remain convinced that there are jobs out there. What is needed is the correct mindset, the correct poise, the intelligence, the ability to articulate, the street smartness etc to get an invite for interviews and wow ur interviewer when u get there.
95% of today's graduate score zero in all these. The remaining 5% got the jobs

So ur problem is the hijab? Go to the nearest lagoon, then take a jump. Or better still, look for the nearest powered transformer and take a hug. The way u condemn the way of life of Muslims for their clothedness, have u ever been condemned for your unclothedness? Must they be like u?
take it easy bro.
Even u urself is wrong. She is not wearing hijab. She is only trying to respect the presence of our muslim president by breastfeeding her baby decently.
Very wise of her (or very sharp of the presidential protocol team)

Hmmm! But we have seen her face why cover her? Instead I think they should have allowed a female security operative to stay with her in a private room.
U don't get it. She is covering her breast to decently breastfeed her baby. Remember buhari is a strong Muslim. It is forbidden for him to see the unclothedness of a woman who is not married to him.

Politics › Re: NIPOST To Issue Passport And Driver’s Licence by obstead200(m): 5:18pm On May 17, 2016
socialmediaman:
Seriously misplaced priority. They should focus on improving postal delivery services with technology, completing the postal/zip code system so that every house in Nigeria can be identified with a zip code, acquiring more delivery vans, improve their customer service delivery with exceptional call center executives and "always available" help centers, and also improving their tracking systems. They can fight the competition with private firms like Fedex, and become the no 1 choice of delivery for online ordering
sincerely u cannot be more correct than this.
But I have long lost hope in the abiliy of any government to run a profitable or at least a self financing venture.
So I wud say the first step is a full privatisation of NIPOST. then the private sector can begin implementation of any wonderful idea they have. If this is not done first, NOTHING can work.

Only courier services is a multi billion naira venture sef

Be part of this seminar and enrich yourself. Stop giving excuses or asking questions of an undetermined person. If i put you through the business and you don't give testimonies, then i return whatever you spent. Take a step to start.cuttlings are available for supplies. Kind regards.

Show us pictures of ur farm. Show us pictures of u handling grasscutters in ur farm. What is so difficult to understand in dat request?

It's almost eight months since the educated illiterate has been kept in custody despite the noise and chest-beating about what awaited the country if he was arrested. Yet, NOTHING has happened since he was arrested like a common criminal he is, apart from more chest-beating and unfortunate death of some of his gullible brainwashed followers, .

But we warned him and his fake supporters ooooo.

cheesy grin cheesy grin
I am really surprised that u are too daft to see the fundamental issue at stake here.
This is no longer an issue of what Kanu and IPOB did or did not do. It is a case of a breakdown, a balkanisation, a bastardisation of every thing a democracy should represent. It is now a case of shameless and very unprofessional behaviour by the supposed custodians of our democracy:- the judiciary.
Are u too stu.pid to see dis? Has ur hatred of the igbo race blinded u so much?
Why can't d judiciary simply try this case and jail the guy if found guilty? (I am fully in support of jailing him if found guilty) Why must they sponsor this conspiracy to rap.e our already bastardised democracy once more?

This is one thing I hate about my igbo brothers. Some of them are so small minded that they don't care about the big damage they do to an entire society as long as they put food on the table for themselves.

The Human resources Manager,
ABC Nigeria Limited.

Oyo state

Dear sir,

APPLICATION FOR THE POST OF CHIEF ACCOUNTANT

I read with extreme interest your advertisement in The Guardian Newspaper of May 30th 2006 for the post of Chief Accountant. I graduated from XYZ University with a degree in Accounting (2nd Class Honours, Upper Division). In addition I have a Masters degree in finance, proffessional qualification (ACA), and many years of cognate experience.

I understand that this post requires a candidate with a strong analytical mind, a self starter who must be able to work with little supervision. I possess these attributes and they have served me well in the past - ensuring my rapid promotion by my previous employers.

I would appreciate an opportunity to interview with you and demonstrate to you first hand that i am an excellent fit for this position. You may contact me at the above address or through my telephone number 08038363655. I have also attached my resume for your perusal. Thank you for your time and consideration.
I have been using ur style before now. But I think I prefer the OP's style.
Both of u guys are saying the same thing but the OP's is more assertive. it exudes confidence. Nowadays, after qualifications are experience are placed on the table, ur confidence and strength of character counts a lot.
Career › Re: OFFICE POLITICS; The Evil That Threatens Corporate Existence. by obstead200(m): 11:54am On Apr 15, 2016
Chiefpriest1:
Office politics is not bad on its own, but in Nigeria it means leaking your boss' behind.

If you work in this part of the world, you have to learn to do it or you either remain stagnant or get fired during appraisals.

It has affected me in the several places I 've worked, but it's just not me to do anything outside what is official. It's a choice I 've made.

Ps: that backbiting and blackmailing seems to be their biggest tool in Nigeria
u are right.
But as far as I am concerned, corporate politics is a child's play compared to civil service politics. if u work in any MDA, u can testify.

Career › Re: Should I Resign My New Job For A Contract Job? by obstead200(m): 11:32am On Apr 12, 2016
ebimila:
My friend, first and foremost congratulations on the fact that you have a job although did not tell how well your current employers are doing in the market or business world. Good to know that there is room for career growth and promotion on that job. I guess that means very likely confirmation at expiration of your probation (that is if if you were employed to be a staff and not contractor). As for the other offer, a contract job is a contract job. Gone are the days that you would go into SHELL as a contract staff and get conversion to full staff. The greater percentage of SHELLs employees/ workforce esp. in Nigeria are contract staff (this is basically to reduce overhead). Some have been there for 15- 20 years as contractors on the same salary and even have regrets of having stayed that long. Even at 200k, thats complete stagnation and if i may add, your contract can be terminated at any time because of your status. May that not be your portion. It is important for us to learn from other peoples mistake. Money is not everything. If there is room for growth in your current place, you never can tell where God will take you in those 4 years. Most likely over and above the 200k+ SHELL job.That you worked as a contract staff means nothing and does not in anyway enhance your resume. Besides, you will be amazed at how fast 4yrs will go by, no growth, same pay, same task, more responsibilities (if and when you settle down), less motivation. Think hard and pray more. It always seems to look greener on the other-side.
@ the bolded and colored; U made a lot of sense there. A lot of pple change employment without considering the prospects of the company and the industry into which they are going.
I have turned down a lot of Jobs because of this single fact. From banking to manufacturing etc. As a financial expert, if I don't see the prospect of future growth and sustainability in a company, If a company is facing shrinking mkt size and unfavourable operating policies, If I cant see the mgt taking smart steps to grow the business, then I am not coming on board. I walk.

nellyalph:
I advise you stay with your new job. With the way the oil sector in this country is moving, my dear nothing is guaranteed and besides its CONTRACT job and it can terminated easily.. I got a contract job that didn't even last for a week sometime this year.
Best advise so far.
Oil firms are struggling to breakeven. No oil job, except the pay is really huge, is attractive right now. Except there is a clause preventing them from terminating ur appointment before the 4 year period, I suggest u stick to ur present job. 4 years is a long time and the oil sector would most likely recover by then.

from the building plan I can still count at least 17 window, 450k might not even be enough if the fabricator want to use sub frame, 5MM glass, (NIGALEX OR EBM ALUMINIUM)
U are mistaken. U were counting the balconies and the doors as windows. moreover about 6 windows there are 24 by 24inches. They should cost way less. Also any fabricator that plans to use very superior materials tend to brag about it in the quotation.
4ft by 4ft casement windows still cost less than 30k a piece.

The quote is fair but it seem electrical pipe work, protector and window are on high side. Confirm from him the type of material hes using for your windows. Pipe work of 180k is really on a high side.
Yeah, most of the estimates are on the high side. the electrical piping, are the wires inclusive?, the protectors are they to be done with pipes or are they rods with elaborate designs? casement windows, abeg how can u spend 450k for less that 12 windows? these estimates are horrible.
and what are u doing with 10 trips of plaster sand? are u building a new house? How many chambers will 110k build? are u going to live inside the chambers? abeg look for other estimates.
