You that grabbed the land I was eyeing to buy and build an edifice like that A.A Oil guy' on.

You haven't heard the last of it @ AFONJACOW. You will hear from my legal team.


BTW this Facebook stuff is a welcome idea. We should just be careful so they don't come and build a spy center in Naija.
hahahaha my enemies want to stage coup d'etat against me and Glo is their sponsor, but my God is alive... meanwhile I'm booking the land for my future unborn children ,


back to the business Facebook is full of scammers/fake ppl, I think FB management should do something and stop these Nigerians/Filipinos that besiege the network looking for whom to scam, this innovation is not a welcome development until they sanitize the network

Facebook like many silicone valley tech
companies are only looking out for themselves. They set up all these silly initiatives in impoverish English speaking countries like India and Nigeria for example all in hopes of recruiting top talent for their companies. Instead of paying an American software engineer $150,000 per annum, they would seek out indians, pay for their visas, flight ticket, room and board then offer them $70,000 per annum. While that's a lot of money for anyone from a 3rd world country, it's still wage discrimination and practically racist. Trump has vouched to close this loophole.

They are supposed to look out for you because you are a special one of a kind
person among the world's 7 billion.
Here is a "secret" you must know, companies everywhere in the world don't look out for people's
interest, they look out for profit!.

Wage inequality? Is this a joke?
Unless you work for the government, wages are never equal!
Companies hire at the rate that is acceptable to both parties.
I don't understand why some people play the race card at every opportunity when the "victims"
can simply say "no, I don't want your racist job, I will stay and develop my country".

Trump don't give a damn about racism, he just don't want immigrants whether they are potential
nobel laureates or fruit pickers.

You can even start a campaign to discourage jobless people from participating in this
"racist" skill acquisition scheme, the choice is yours.

You have a point here, but you can't really dictate to a company who it should or shouldn't employ. In truth, all companies want to cut cost and when they employ gurus from third world countries, they also create jobs down here. But in all, I feel that Western designers are always better than those from third world...yes, at least from my little experience on content mills I know and companies that can afford to pay Western experts prefer them anytime

There is little that can be done to sanitize the system my dear.

Everything has its cause and effect. Even the world created by GOD.

Stop embarrassing yourself, USA is a merit-based system and regardless of whatever any company wants, there is something called labour laws! I urge you to read about them. Nobody is playing the race card so stop being a dunce, I clearly said Americans not white Americans, or aren't black Americans also Americans?? Wage discrimination is a crime, you cannot hire someone and pay them half of what you pay someone else for the same job simply because they are immigrants, that's exploiting immigrants and creating an uneven playing field that's a disadvantage for American workers.

It is a crime and thousands of activist lawyers in the US are not suing
and making money from it?
But a dumb Trump supporter like you knows better?
When you read online, don't just use your eyes, you should also use
your head.

You are a grade A certified mo.ron. Stop making baseless points. It's a crime, look up US labor laws and stop reasoning like a motor park tout. Big tech companies have lobbyists who have lobbied the government into keeping exploitative programs like the H1B1 visa program. They started this program to recruit foreign talents in situations whereby qualified talents aren't available in the U.S, but like everything with good intentions, greedy tech companies took advantage of it and as a default for hiring employees from India for far less what they would pay Americans. And by the way I'm not a trump supporter, it's called common sense something you seem to lack.

Hahaha...I understand you bro...we are not "such sites"
We take your business to your clients, we don't wait for them to come to the website. As I said, we promote service providers, heavily and aggressively.

I looked through your thread and I like what I saw...else I might not have considered quoting you at all.

Essentially, people will see your work on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and make contact. It's that simple.

Okay. Glad you understood me. I'll definitely give it a shot. So what's your deal? You take a commission or something?

We take a commission less than 3%. We actually provide escrow services for deals. And you can be reviewed by your clients so as to attract even more...
You've really got nothing to lose and the more unique or "isolated" your niche is, the more percentage of clients you get. Just navigate to the website and give all information clients need to know about you in your bio, your location, services offered, availability and upload your best samples and you're good. We will do our job and you get contacted for work.
