bauer00:
Ezra and Thomas joined a company together a few months after their graduation from university.

After a few years of work, their Manager promoted Ezra to a position of Senior Sales Manager, but Thomas remained in his entry level Junior Sales Officer position. Thomas developed a sense of jealousy and disgruntlement, but continued working anyway.

One day Thomas felt that he could not work with Ezra anymore. He wrote his resignation letter, but before he submitted it to the Manager, he complained that Management did not value hard working staff, but only promoted only the favoured!

The Manager knew that Ezra worked very hard for the years he had spent at the company; even harder than Thomas and therefore he deserved the promotion. So in order to help Thomas to realize this, the Manager gave Thomas a task.


————————————————-

“Go and find out if anyone is selling water melons in town?”

Thomas returned and said, “yes there is someone!”

The Manager asked, “how much per kg?” Thomas drove back to town to ask and then returned to inform the Manager; “they are R13.50 per kg!”

The Manager told Thomas, “I will give Ezra the same task that I gave you. Please pay close attention to his response!”

So the Manager said to Ezra, in the presence of Thomas; “Go and find out if anyone is selling water melons in town?”

——————————————–

Ezra went to find out and on his return he said:
“Manager, there is only one person selling water melons in the whole town. The cost is R49.00 each water melon and R32,50 for a half melon. He sells them at R13.50 per kg when sliced. He has in his stock 93 melons, each one weighing about 7kg. He has a farm and can supply us with melons for the next 4 months at a rate of 102 melons per day at R27.00 per melon; this includes delivery.
The melons appear fresh and red with good quality, and they taste better than the ones we sold last year.
He has his own slicing machine and is willing to slice for us free of charge.
We need to strike a deal with him before 10am tomorrow and we will be sure of beating last year’s profits in melons by R223 000.00. This will contribute positively to our overall performance as it will add a minimum of 3.78% to our current overall sales target.
I have put this information down in writing and can be available on spreadsheet. Please let me know if you need it as I can send it to you in fifteen minutes.”

Thomas was very impressed and realized the difference between himself and Ezra. He decided not to resign but to learn from Ezra.

As we begin this fresh year, let this story help us keep in mind the importance of going an extra mile in all our endeavors.

You won’t be rewarded for doing what you’re meant to do, you only get a salary for that! You’re only rewarded for going an extra mile; performing beyond expectations.

To be successful in life you must be observant, proactive and willing to do more, think more, a more holistic perspective and go beyond the call of duty.

May you be blessed with a better perspective to your work this year.

*Greater life needs this mentality of going an extra mile, As Husband’s, mothers, children; Let’s go an extra mile in all our endeavour..

Let us always have this in our minds…
..
The reason why some employers do not like workers is that workers do only what they are told to do..
They don’t put in their own initiatives.. Investors put in whatever it takes wherever they are, even if they find themselves as employees, or as entrepreneurs or self-employed..
They go extra miles to get things “Better done”..

That is why employers love investors.

Dereformer:
The levitical priesthood were allowed to collect tithe under the LAW. Hebrew 7 :5

Now the priesthood having been changed, there is made of necessity a change of the law also.
Hebrew 7: 12

My blessing does not come from tithing. My role model, JESUS CHRIST OF NAZARETH, told me so. It comes from helping the poor.

If tithe is so important and a bases for blessing, my BOSS would have told me so.


If I must pay tithe, then I will also offer burnt sacrifice.

but our God delights in his law, my question to you is, whats the need 4 his judgment, if his (our God) laws are no more?, am askin becus i believe dats wat u preach to peopel...

An2elect2:
The church of God does not receive tithe. All those collecting tithes are liars and robbers and they obey no one but their father, the devil.

you are no other person, than a JW.

Kentura:
Taaah, sheraap there osiso!

Abeg, park one side with your lies and fake doctrines!!


Blind follower thaa cannot open her bible and study for herself.. na you wey dy obey devil by preaching against what's in the bible.

ples bro, pardon her ignorance,callin the body of of christ a criminal also show that she has no respect.

zionmade:
Judas was not DESTINED BY GOD TO BETRAY JESUS.
Judas wasnt afraid to steal from Jesus and dat opened him to be used by d devil.
There was no prophesy about betrayal of Jesus until Jesus said so. And Jesus made his first statement about Judas wen he acknowledged dat Judas was a thief before he prophesied dat judas would betray him.
Assuming something bad has to happen to an evil man, God would never use a righteous man to execute it, he would make another evil man a vessel to d devil to carry out his plans.
Dat is why we shouldn't make ourselves available for devil to use

, understand immeasurable things jus a mistake can caus one, jesus said it, and it was a prophacy,which was fulfiled by his lack of wisdom, he thought hs master wil pas even in d middle of d captivators as usual, another tin prophecy of christ, is smtin that mus be.

Trousers in History

In Asia both women and men have long worn pants for warmth, comfort, and convenience.

In Rome and Greece women and men wore tunics.

In the fourth century, women in the Western world wore pants, which they adapted from the Persians. At that time, pants were considered unmanly.

By the Middle Ages in Europe women were wearing dresses and men were wearing breeches.

After the French Revolution, men took off their high heels, silk stockings, and wigs and began wearing trousers.

In the nineteenth century women put on trousers to ride horses, but they hid them by wearing full skirts on top.

All trousers were pull-ons until the nineteenth century, when front closures using buttons were introduced.

Jeans were the first trousers to put women and men on equal terms.

Until 1970 it was not fashionable and sometimes against the law for women to wear pants in offices, classrooms, and restaurants in the U.S.

Kondomatic:
I remember the first time I unknowingly ate food that was spiced with weed, enough of it.

The first thing I noticed was that my head became unusually heavy and my sight a bit blurry.

Then my legs became weak, I suspected something and soaked garri immediately.

It was while taking the garri that I heard the sound of church bell inside my head and a voice telling me to start preparing for a federal executive local government chairman meeting in our headmaster's house.

Another voice told me to remember to bring my pen and paper because I will be made the secretary that day as the doctor who is our secretary will be going to hear confession in a new Catholic Church.

I said shou.... let me prepare immediately but first I need to eat something.

I grabbed a loaf of bread from the fridge and finished it within seconds, still hungry.

I moved to the kitchen and finished half of the rice I cooked without remembering stew. It tasted great though. Anything you put in your mouth when you're high tastes like heaven.

I moved to the bedroom and sat down on the bed to recite how I will introduce myself at the meeting and that was all I could remember.


I woke in the middle of the night with a terrible headache.

Ojiofor:

nzeobi:
Trouser is in no way a male cloth, we have male trouser and then female trouser.
Any man saying trouser is for male should put on jeggings let's see

Decency in dressing is what people should focus on

. Ewu sorry

anotherydz:
Live your life in the way that pleases God and you will be fine. Forget trousers we are getting a whole lot of things wrong ourselves.

. Thank you broda..., high 5

Ashleydolls:
I don't think it is a sin cause the people that brought Christianity religion to Nigeria dress and feel comfortable in trousers. Calling it a sin is due to the over sabi nature of our people...

. Please am not being insultive,check out when your father is wearing skirt,ur broda, and ur husband bc,de are comfortable wt it, let alone takin it to d presens of God, hope it also pleases you that man should skirt.

chukel:
my brother, if u really understood me, u will discover we are saying the same thing. I was responding to someone's post and justifying why naija used cars were also expensive. The dealers were not sincere and out to cheat u guys.

. Guy am sorry to say this, you've not come to real the understanding of what business is all about,u must have heard about stocks

saintjoel:
Hmm, I will say that the dealers have no blame in this issue. When you consider the reality that most of them have to source for dollars from the black market at exorbitant rates and you also have to consider shipping charges,that alone rose to N650,000 (1,500$) alone when dollar was N450 - 1$. There's also custom duty and port charge like demmurage too to consider, clearing a car manufactured in 1999 may cost almost N450,000 to clear.

Now add N650,000 + N450,000 to the original cost of the vehicle in dollars, you'll see why dealers try to sell at those rates to meet up, who wants his/her business to collapse just because clients want cheap cars but government policies aren't making it possible.


I agree that it's not good when you buy at a lower rate and you sell at higher rates but my question is this, will banks give special considerations to you when next you want to buy dollars just because you sold your cars at a lower rate. I'm not holding brief for any Car Dealer but common sense dictates that you use any means to protect what brings food to your table.




Also take into consideration that many of the cars advertised in websites are advertised by second or third level dealers, many of them aren't firsthand owners, most of the car lots you see around have different people investing into it,they're the originals owners and importers while others are just marketers, so a profit margin has to be added. Thats how car dealerships operate throughout the world.

. My brother d bigest thumb up for you, if any body thinks that business is just the way they assumed it be, please give it a try.

The situation is because of the recent attack in the UK by a Muslim terrorist.
I do not blame them because they are trying to protect their country. People from Burkina Suffer are Muslims and going by the attacks by Muslims seem to have no bounds now as everyone is a suspect. The Quran encourages killing of infidels, so who knows who might be the next victim?

Koran 2:191 "Slay the unbelievers whenever you find them."
Koran 3:28 "Muslims must not take the infidels as friends."
Koran 3:85 "Any religion other than Islam is not acceptable."
Koran 5:33 "Maim and crucify the infidels if they criticize Islam".
Koran 8:12 "Terrorize and behead those that believe in scriptures other than the Koran."
Koran 8:60 "Muslims must muster all weapons to terrorize the infidels."
Koran 8:65 "The unbelievers are stupid; urge all muslims to fight them."
Koran 9:5 "When opportunity arises kill the infidels wherever you find them."
Koran 9:30 "The Jews and Christians are perverts, fight them."
Koran 9:123 "Make war on the infidels living in your neighborhood."
Koran 22:19 "Punish the unbelievers with garments of fire, hooked iron rods, boiling water, melt their skin and bellies".
Koran 47:4 "Do not hanker for peace with the infidels; behead them when you catch them.
