Samsunny99:
I beg to disagree bro,
Instead there should be special schools that deals with those professions, where you are trained on how things are done,not going to the university to study business admin for instance only to become a chef
We are saying the same thing, you should go to school to study business admin while another person goes to school to study cooking. It's all called schooling... No course is bigger than the other. Try reach Europe you understand what am saying... The only difference is some courses are handled with care like medicine and nursing but naturally they are not better than anything. The engineers has to do there path and the chef has to understand there nutrition. Britain did a lot of damages here.

If this country normal,how person go even do first degree finish come dey think of doing fashion designer,barbing,selling food provision etc
Not to talk of PhD
Year in year out universities are turning out graduates
Omo eni to mo way
Lomo we
Change this mentality... If everyone now go to school, and nobody is a fashion designer, who will sew the clothes you will wear? We are supposed to go to school to acquire skills and knowledge for barbing, buying and selling, fashion designing etc and not to go and read irrelevant books and graduate with a useless certificate. Those Fendi and varsace you crave for were designed by graduates and talented individuals. Britain just came here and messed with our brains and intelligence.

Feldie:
I've always hoped and prayed to be dead before then. I hope to die strong. I can't imagine myself being old and rickety and barely able to stand. God forbid. What is the difference, dying at 65 and dying at 80? What difference would the additional 15 years make? You would have already become irrelevant and condemned to watching people do things
Tinubu is 90 and still hoping to rule for another 8yrs. That additional 8yrs is important to him because, it will give him enough time to finish the zoo kpatakpata

Good morning.
Have you ever asked yourself the question, "why do we work"?
Some will say they work in order to avoid hunger. Some will say they work in order not to just stay idle at home. Some will say they work in order to fit into the society.
There are several other reasons why we work.

Until you start to ask questions about your building towards the future, then you are on the right path.
Have you ever asked yourself, "When a man is too old to work," what is my plan towards that phase?

You can't work forever, so now that you are still much younger, I hope you are working towards that stage and not just working to eat and survive the present moment or economy?

That job you are currently engaged in, is it a temporary or permanent solution? You should be able to identify a permanent solution or a temporarily solution and not confuse them.

I am trying to find a permanent solution and sacrificing my convinience at this stage. I hope I find it soon: a permanent solution to my human needs and questions. Because when I am too old to work, I hope I have something better than a pension.
Lost my job 4yrs ago and reluctant to find another because of this question. I say let me suffer at once and build something I can depend on when am old or weak. Have been trying to figure out how to keep money coming even when on a sick bed

If not for insecurity, Nigerians have no reasons to experience inflation in the price of food stuff.

20 fresh tubbers. I already gave out some to my neighbors as it's precious gift in this part of the country.
Nigeria was just designed not to work. This is an example of the fact that only benue state can feed the nation but no, the witches at the top don't want it and janjaweedds are been used to achieve that. One day Biafra will go and lead a good life.

If I prophecy now, they will say am a prophet of doom.

1) Nigeria will collapse this year

2) APC will divide

3) kidnappers will start targeting politicians

4) Bandits will overrun a state in the north

5) Naira will close at 2k after hitting 2700

6) MNK will come out this year still motivate ipob

6) fuel will hit 1k even as dangote refinery is running

7) Tinubu will go medical leave and Shettima will boost the economy to the amazement of many.

cool Yoruba race and Fulani will clash in one of the states in the west.

9) BTC will hit 70k this year

10) A new type of storage battery will be invented this year that will crash the price crude oil.

Let me reserve other prophecies as it does not concern Nigeria directly.

Let's pray for a major politician in office not to kpai... About two of them

Career › Re: This Happened In My New Work Place. Please advice by occfx: 5:29pm On Jan 13, 2024
Jackanda1:
I recently applied to work in an organisation.

After passing the interview and checks, the management was impressed and decided to hire and give me a major role in the company.

When i asked about the payment for my position, they threw me a popular question;
HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD PAY YOU?

I gave them a figure in mind, a little above what i got in my former job. Their facial expression was 'WoW'.

I started work on tuesday and after making friends and chating the secretary, i found out that i earn twice less than the staffs in the company in the same position.

Infact, i earn a little more than the gateman and cleaner. The secretary even earns more.

Its my fault, should have done some checks on the strength and salary structure of the firm before applying.

I feel discouraged. With this information, i won't be able fuction properly. Plus this secretary with her loud mouth will spread the news in the company, making me feel worst.

Anyone with this experience? Please console me.
Why would you be quoting price... I like giving answers in proverbs if the other person is advantaged then if you insist I be specific, then I will become offensive. You won't feel that bad because you asked me to be specific.

Mixing it up is dangerous and thats what most of them do... Use clean hustle to cover up hook up. Kudos to any genuine hustling woman out there

Career › Re: My Boss Uses Divide And Rule System: Should I Quit Or Ignore by occfx: 4:42pm On Jan 12, 2024
ponkitibobo:
Dear nairalanders, i need your sincere advice on this issue. I am the overall manager of a company. My boss ( the owner) uses divide and rule system. He likes people snitching on others. He has adviced me as the manager to adopt same system to get information about what's happening.

My concern now is that he doesn't probe me to speak about others but he probes others to speak about me. So far so good no scandal has been reported against me. I live above board with the fear of God to the best of my ability.

Each time he will tell me the workers said i dont take suggestions, i am harsh with them when they suggest. I know this is a lie on the part of the workers.

This is where i need your advice: should i confront my boss and ask why he is doing that. Why is he using them against me and not me against them.

This attitude is frustrating me. He is always confronting me with their very sentimental and subjective opinions. Meanwhile non is able to say any serious evil against. I know if they see they will definitely tell him . But non as at today.

Should i quit the job or just ignore
I wished I knew this earlier that this the tactics black man bosses use. It is better to use your enemy than your friend. If they want to divide you with anyone go to that person behind their back, make him your friend and play along. Life is a game of chess.

Duyt1798:
Hi guys!

I hope this my post gets to the FP, so I can get insights from a wider audience; even I know some might not make sense, but one thing I've learnt from the short time I joined this platform, is that - sense dey inside nonsense.

Pardon me, my write fit dey a bit lengthy.

I currently work with a multi-national startup coy. My net pay is a bit above 400k naira (this's at the moment), I've worked for about 2 years. I'm married with two kids and expecting the third.

Now my dilemma is that, I've not been able to save up funds, I feel like my living condition doesn't reflect what I earn. Shingbai like this, I no get for account. The last I could remember, I go deep hand for forex, e nearly give me hypertension (I lost about 2m). I still dey pay debt wey I incur as a result.

Now where I need assistance is, looking at the amount I'm earning, how do I spend? Please for those that will be kind enough to give suggestions, let it practically explained, as in help me break am down to the amount wey I suppose spend, how I suppose spend am, and wetin I suppose save.

I believe say many family people dey here wey get better experiences.

Thanks 🙏.
Reduce your standard of living or borrow loan to increase cash flow. 400k is just $400 or less. E no reach anywhere

Acidosis:
People still sell fish and soap till date. Selling fish is not another grass [to grace story]. You were simply doing a proper job to survive like everyone else. Those selling dried fish till date so we can eat are not stup!d. Many people built big houses by selling dried fish. It's unfortunate you couldn't do much with that business.

Making certain businesses look like "grass " is a serious issue in this country.
It's a Nigerian mentality and I don't know why. That was why we left agriculture and complain of hunger. I don't know what Britain did to our heads... I want to take this fight to them with MNK. They washed our brains with soap and water and watch us degenerate. What's wrong with selling fish, if nobody sells fish, how would you eat fish. This zoo is fuckkkin disgusting.

Life is like a seed when we water it very well.

Just like the story goes...I have personally sold soap and dried fish in Lagos state,in fact things were very bad for my parents in those days and I could also remember when my father was buoyant and financially capable. I sold fish at cele market called Odi eron and also sold dried fish around isolo area before God helped my parents to see me through my University education.

Today,I have ended their sufferings and subsequently brighten their face with the little I could offer and they are more than glad to move to into a new home for their retirements.

Finally,I want to urge u out there that is suffering today,that with determination and perseverance u can make it and turn the story of ur family around for the better. Just have that faith and see things turn around for good.

Good luck and make it a duty to make it and do not allow any distraction.
However good or bad the situation is, it will change. As far as it changes genuinely, you will enjoy peace at the end but when it comes to small girl with big God matter, my hand no dey
