I will have you know that all guys in my office is mobile, plus I would still give anyone I saw a lift regardless the gender, there is this guy in my estate, that works in a bank, as a marketer, I know how stressful the job can be and as such, I have been taking him to his office gate and dropping him at home every fucking day for the past 2 years, cos his office is very close to mine, so dont judge me cos u don't know me.

so during the time you were picking the said lady for 3 months you were also picking the guy too, interesting.

ONNYX:


You hit the nail on the head. We are going through a talking epidemic now where our egos are more prone to talking than listening.
If you have the opportunity of listening into an interview session you will simply be bewildered. You need tons of patience to deal with the present generation. To think that some of them are so arrogant in their very apparent emptiness.

You are right. They have carried their "I don't care" and rude attitude from social media to voice calls.

Some girls of this our generation de weak me, just moderate breast and backside with smart phone shekina . Comon sense is not even common in their brain.

Handsomebb:


No HR will use a private number to call you, infact some of them will use a landline. it's serves her right, I mean even if the person na chyker sef she would have received the call politely and block the number, Life no hard o.

The way some of you people talk in this forum ehn?

HR managers uses private lines and email. There's nothing wrong with that. Besides not all companies are big.

I once received mail from an HR manager in London, he used his personal mail.

You people should just be calming down sha.

Boss,
Don't forget your boy sir

I haven’t forgotten you; just waiting for some deals to mature.

Please bear with me

Was that really impossible?

It's a car not a motor bike , apparently it could contain 6 persons including the driver, so what's your point exactly ?

Nicklaus619:
Nigeria ladies are so shallow-minded.
That was how I was innocently picking and dropping one lady in my department in the office with my car, the very day I bought my car and start driving it to work, we actually stay one estate apart and I thought it wise since she ain't mobile, let me be helping her, of which my fiance knew and was was cool with, fast forward to after 3 months of constant picking her in the morning and dropping her after work at her gate,

Aunty approached me one day and was like
Nick what do you really want from me because u can't be doing all of this and not wanting something in return?

I was so pissed and disgusted by her foolish comment, but i did not answer her though, I just smile at her, dropped her at her gate as usual and drove home, immediately I got home, aunty has called me like 4 miss call, I eventually retuned her call and she started apologizing for speaking out of tone, I told her not to worry that everywhere good, but that was the last I drove her in my car, up till date she still apologizing, but I no longer give a fvck, most Nigeria ladies thinks every guy always want to toast them. well I shocked her, because my girlfriend is 100 times more endowed and beautiful than her, what could I be wanting from her biko

You misunderstood her... She was indirectly toasting you bro

FuckThaMod:

Lols, j know bro, but she did it the wrong way,
Later later we reconciled shaa

soundOsonic:
The HR for make am sweet by texting "aunty you don lose your employment be that, you no wan say hello ba, at least help me tell your village people hello no vex"

I can not fit to laugh... In okon lagos voice iyam mmi!

People like you are the one's criticising the lady but are 10 times worse. Just look at the extent of rudeness in your statement.

Cutehector:
just keep quiet if you dont have any reasonable thing to spew.

firstworld:
The HR person is at fault I am in HR and because of these kinds of reactions, I usually start my calls by introducing myself first so the other person knows who is calling and is at ease. He could have simply said "I am John D calling from bank. That wouldnt hurt. That said, the lady should have been cautious as a job seeker that was just interviewed and expecting phone calls. Lets call a spade a spade please.

How can you blame your fellow HR in issues like this, well I'm not surprised, meeting some uncultured mannerless staffs at the bank makes me wonder how they successfully passed all levels of interviews, well now I got my answers....!!

Bahamas95:
One less idiotic banker to worry about. When you hear guys say most Nigerian girls are useless it sounds like an insult but it's the truth. They have this inbuilt foolishness.

Whether educated or not they reason same way. That question of "how did you get my number" is just so annoying. They won't even ask politely.

I was listening to a programme on radio sometime ago and the OAP called a girl to wish her happy birthday. The way she was talking was annoying so to avoid further embarrassment the guy had to open up that she was live on radio that someone asked him to call her to wish her happy birthday.....On realizing the damaged caused she changed like a chameleon immediately and started faking being nice. The OAP didn't even bother to waste his time by listening to her he just said " I am very sure your friend is listening, I have delivered his message. Do have a nice day"

If na me be that babe boyfriend I for break up with her dat day, she just showed the whole world that she isn't a wife material.....She disgraced herself that day on radio because of pride/foolishness.

lool. It seems we were listening to the same programme..

The HR caller lacks manners.

BRATISLAVA:


Which bank workers are kind people?

They are rude until they see your balance, then and only then do they become kind.

Maybe so.

firstworld:

oh please just get lost.

Not sparing the lady's lack of etiquette, the interviewer ought to first introduce himself/herself.

Hello, my name is LaExpert, am I speaking with this person?

They need not add the name of the company, if on to the person, then a more proper introduction follows.

That's not enough reason for her not to be hired. But it's rude when you call someone and the first thing the receiver says is "Who is this"

BABA i said "PRIVATE NUMBER" i.e a no number. NOT private line.

Wisemfon:
A lady I referred for a bank job in the first week of June got a call this morning to resume work at an Uyo branch of the said commercial bank. She was fortunate to be among the few applicants that were shortlisted from among a large pool of graduates who got interviewed for the jobs.
No, but she won't be resuming!

She finally lost the opportunity because of a phone call.
She had received the call in the early hours of today, 10:00am precise. It was from the HR department of the bank.

But she didn't say "hello".

Her first remark when she picked was "who's this?"

Before she got any other reply she added "how did you get my number?"

The HR person goes "Am I speaking to Miss xxxxxxx?"

She felt the question is unnecessary! And she gave her final response.

"Please if you don't want to introduce yourself get out of my phone" that was her final word!

I got a feedback from the HR by 12noon today and I listened to that conversation. Those kinds of phone calls are always recorded for reference purposes.

Aunty lost the job because she lacks Phone Conversations Etiquette! I listened to the recorded version of that conversation.

She lost the job because she believes every unknown male caller is a "chyker".

You see? After all it's not always because HR people are "despicable" as they have been labeled by Nigerians!

Why would a Homosapien answer a phone call like this in the year 2020AD?

Watch out! Your next phone call might be your breakthrough! But your ill-manners could cost you the miracle

Sometimes I don't blame people for being rude on the phone. Just while I was sleeping, I got a call Three times from a private number from 1.59am to 2.05am.
I lost my sleep and had to start playing video games till about 5am.

Bro, I understand why you're pissed by her comment, but I don't think you should blame her much. Her behaviour was most likely influenced by experience. A lot of guys suddenly become nice to ladies they like to have a thing with without outrightly stating their intention. And when they finally do and get turned down, our dear nairaland people would blame the lady for being greedy by enjoying the goodies while pretending not to know the man's intent. Weird, I know, but this happens a lot. And I don't think this lady knew about your fiancee and had probably started developing feelings for you so she decided to know your mind, though maybe her presentation was f..u.cked up. In your shoes, I'd seat her down and explain to her that I have no ulterior motive and against what society says, some men can still be good to ladies for no other reason aside from being good people. She'd respect you and appreciate your help a whole lot more after such a discussion. I have this issue with ladies myself, and just recently I had to help a lady understand this difference after I noticed she'd started to read meanings to the little assistances I give her. She felt very embarrassed and won't stop apologising. We're cool now though.

You are wrong, I always start my calls with hello good morning, and once the person im calling doesnt resopond in good manner, i lose interest in the call, i may even end it

HR, learn from your colleague. Stop play god man!
If you were to ask that same person for favour, won't you start by introducing yourself?
I know you people, too many over sabi on LinkedIn.

You have to always remember that most people give you same energy you give them.
Only very few can be in total control regardless of external factors.
It is very rude to jump into a conversation with a "stranger" without introducing yourself PROPERLY.

So the way I handle unknown numbers is pretty simple but very effective.

Caller: Good morning
Me: Good morning, Buhari Tinubu on the line. Please who am I speaking with......


Won't your head reset and make you do the very needful? These things are very basic brotherly.
