AutosRe: Have You Ever Bought A Car Thru Yahoo Auto Marts? by Oloks(m): 3:27pm On Jul 28, 2009
Hi,

Not all adverts will be dodgy on the "yahoo" site but some are really are, especially when the offer looks too good to be true and showing no contact phone number except an email address.

I felt more comfortable with the cars.com site, 'cos some of the dealers even posted their carfax report with the adverts.

Depending on where you are located, you can always verify before parting with funds.

Hi,

Be very careful, you have a lot of fraudsters on that site.

TravelRe: Attn: Extra Luggage With Airfrance by Oloks(m): 2:01pm On Jul 21, 2009
Not saying it in bad faith,

But at times it is always better to get the correct information yourself, where available

The least you can do is either to visit Airfrance website site or at most give them a call, hence you will get the correct information. Not just depending on conflicting info,

Make it a habit, it helps at times

Christianity EtcRedeemed Church Acquires N4bn Aircraft: "Poor Man Dey Suffer": ! by Oloks(op): 12:40am On Mar 11, 2009
The Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) has acquired a new aircraft for N4 billion ($28 million).
The aircraft, a Gulfstream 4XP, with number 707EA, arrived Lagos from Bahamas last Sunday.
Industry insiders said the Gulfstream 4XP is a transatlantic aircraft that has the capacity of about 15 passengers depending on the configuration.
The church acquired the aircraft years after the General Overseer of Living Faith Worldwide, a.k.a. Winners Chapel, Bishop David Oyedepo, acquired a Challenger aircraft, with number D6640, which was parked a few meters away from Adeboye’s Gulfstream when THISDAY visited the airside of General Aviation Terminal (GAT) yesterday.
A pilot told THISDAY that the aircraft and many others privately owned by Nigerians are not registered with Nigerian code “N” because “they usually  say that they chattered it for a while whenever they are questioned. You know Bishop Oyedepo of Winners has been operating this aircraft (pointing to the Challenger) for sometime, but it has remained in foreign registration number.”
THIDAY also learnt that Oyedepo has ordered for another  aircraft bigger than the one acquired by Adeboye.
By 2.00 pm yesterday, officials who looked like engineers were seen inspecting the aircraft, which was allowed to rev for hours.
Besides buying the aircraft, a lot of money would be spent in maintaining it and paying the crew, in addition to the landing and parking charges.
Unlike a commercial aircraft which is always in the air, the private jet will spend more time on the ground and must be checked before taking off.
An aeronautical engineer with one of the airlines said besides the mandatory checks, much money would not be spent on its maintenance for now “because it is a new aircraft, but you know that there are rotables which are time-bound parts which are changed regularly.
“The same with refitting parts. These are parts that are changed after every 12 or 15 calendar months whether you are flying or not. So, acquiring a private aircraft means that you are ready to be spending money to keep it going.”
Expressing surprise on the purchase, a former official of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), who craved anonymity, said with the present global economic recession, it was shocking that anyone, even a business man could spend such money on a private aircraft.
He said: “This is unbelievable. You know the amount of poverty in this land, which I know is widespread. How can he acquire such aircraft when he knows that members of his church are suffering?
“Look, even the Pope does not have a private jet. I am a Catholic. It is true that Catholic is the richest church in the world in terms of artefacts but the Pope flies Alitalia. How can the Pope tell the church that he wants a private jet?”
Since 1999, many Nigerians have acquired private aircraft.

@ loluuu

What is now coming up recently in the job mkt, is that one should be able to have more skills in DBA beyond Oracle, you tend to be more marketable by acquiring skills in Sybase, MYSQL etc. That is my observation in the UK mkt.

Training or books will not touch on all situations. Problems do occur at times and can only be resolved from prior experience, u will still need to learn on the job. Though school, training and books just opens your mind makes it easier.

U are very right about OCP certification, though I am not very sure how much emphasis is placed on it in Nigeria, but in UK here no one really ask for OCP etc, it is more to do with "can u deliver". I have worked for major Consulting firms in UK and Holland and I have never been asked if I have OCP
ProgrammingRe: Database Administrators On Nairaland by Oloks(m): 9:44pm On Nov 10, 2006
Not sure how the mkt is in Nigeria, but Tech DBA's should be looking towards moving towards Apps DBA (E-Business) side of things, which still commands very good rate in the contract/perm market in UK. Play around this site www.jobserve.com, and it will give a feel how the mkt is in UK.

TravelRe: ADC Plane Crash In Abuja by Oloks(m): 7:10pm On Oct 29, 2006
Condolences to those who lost their lives in this fatal air crash, may God grant them eternal rest. Maybe when so called leaders who have ruled and looted this country dry start loosing their loved ones in situations like this, it might serve as a wake up call, you cannot cut corners with maintenance and emergency services, there is always a very high price to pay. All that has happened can be prevented or avoided. It is only in Nigeria you will see a very rich man driving a very expensive car, but very stupid enough to cut corners on buying new tyres, the result is all we are seeing now, Shouting God alone in churches and mosques will not save us.

May Lord grant the departed eternal rest.

Old Glory, ,

I won't come here and start bragging about the car I drive or the material things I have achieved, which is what people like u will do when they are on vacations in Nigeria, but I know I have done good for myself, and I will not just pack and go 'cos I do have commitments here, which in my case I will not stoop so low to refer to as $hit,

At times it will be proper to keep to the topic that is been discussed and avoid the issue of moving it to personality issue. It is on this basis I am telling u to grow up, contribute objectively and stop been a brat, saying how big his house is or which car he drives,
