Car TalkRe: FRSC Reveals Real Cost Of Obtaining A Driver's Licence by Patdedon(m): 3:43pm On May 20, 2015
hmm . .
but Time = money.
1hour = N8,000 (my hourly rate)
8000 x 5hours(time spent @FRSC office) = N40,000
N40,000 + N6350 = N46,350

Thank you sir but I prefer the 17k option. Nobody go stop me for road tongue

Six Secrets to Success at Work
Apr 29, 2015


By Jack and Suzy Welch

How many people do you know who are truly happy at work? Are you one of them? We recently surveyed American professionals throughout the nation and learned that nearly a third feel trapped in their careers and passed over for promotions.

Don’t count yourself among them. If you’re feeling stuck, here are six operating principles that can put you on the path to a stronger career trajectory — and, we hope, to the kind of success known as happiness.

1. Find Where Your Passion and Skills Intersect

We have a concept called Area of Destiny, which is the very rich territory at the intersection of what you are uniquely good at and what you love to do. That’s where you should be building your profession.

2. Make Your Boss Smarter

No matter where you are in your career, one thing never changes. Every day, it’s your flat-out responsibility to make your boss look good. You have to make him or her smarter — about your industry, your customers, your competitors, your products, and technology — all the time.

3. Know When to Leave a Bad Boss

Great bosses are generous bosses. If you feel your boss doesn’t in some way have your best interest in mind and want you to grow, you’ve got to have the confidence to move out.

4. Give Yourself a Deadline

Don’t let work feel like a grind. If you're unhappy — or you just aren’t all-in — you have to put a time-frame on how much you are going to put up with before making a change.

5. Don’t Fear Failure

The thing about failing — because you will fail if you take risks — is that you realize you don’t die. You just pick yourself up and keep going — and how fast you get back on the horse says a lot about you.

6. Never Stop Reinventing Yourself

Who wants to just “retire”? Banish that word from your vocabulary. You’ve got to constantly reinvent and take a chance on something you’ve always wanted to do — it’s what keeps you alive. You’re never done.

You mean how much they promised to pay but they couldn't.
LRNZH:
Do you know how much Rivers State pays Corps members compared to other states?
Don't talk anyhow abeg

This is the real incompetence: https://www.nairaland.com/2067016/photos-what-true-value-10billion

PoliticsRe: Amaechi is currently leading in the Best Nigerian Governors Polls (join now) by Patdedon(m): 5:43am On Dec 30, 2014
Is rivers the only state where corps members are posted? How about states with lesser revenue who pay without telling stories like your Amaechi.
Please stop defending incompetence.
Demdem:

Tell ur friend that corpers allowances are the least of Amaechi's problem in this era of austerity where income is fast dwindling.
Go pick up the NYSC statues, states/ employers aren't bound to pay corpers. They do so out of their magnanimity and compassion and not a must. Corpers are fg properties and am sure that ur friend has been paid his allowances by fg.
U wouldn't expect Amaechi not to pay pensioners but pay corpers from dwindling income.

He's still better than amaechi in terms of paying workers.
My friends that served in rivers between 2012-2013 are yet to receive their state allownace till today.

PhonesRe: Infinix zero discussion thread! by Patdedon(m): 8:46am On Sep 18, 2014
How durable is it and what are the specs?
MizTyna: So i have been hearing about the Infinix Zero for a while,and as a samsung and blackberry loyal customer,i thought it was all talk,until i was given the phone recently. And i can say this,for a phone that will be sold less than 30K,it is virtually a steal! For one,the Camera quality is out of this world! I mean,it rendered me speechless. The screen is HD,with corning Gorilla glass! it even has 3D wallpapers!I played candy crush,while checking Instagram,at the same time tethering(using the phone as a mobile hotspot) and the phone lasted several hours without getting hot! No freezing or apps closing anyhow,the phone is sleek and stylish i just thought something must be wrong for it to be this affordable! And i found out it will only be sold through e-commerce and only on Konga,hence the price since all the outlets expenses and selling to stores who in turn add their own prices is out of the way. Everybody who has seen the phone with me all loved it! The Infinix Zero really is worth all the fuss!

RomanceRe: Run When A Woman Says: I Need Us To Have This Conversation by Patdedon(m): 8:09pm On Sep 03, 2014
I wonder why ladies keep referring to marriage as a destination in a relationship.
If you are dating because you want to get married I take it that your partner is a means to an end to you. And there's high probability that the love will die once you are married since your aim for claiming to love has been achieved.
Live one day at a time and share your views, dreams and aspirations with your partner from the word go. If your dreams or lifestyles don't align, you know the next step to take
One love.
