engrkenny:This is the exact thing my mum said to me just now when I called her. She was even laughing, that I am yet to encounter life as it really is.She adviced I go back on monday and if offered the job,state in clear terms that I won't date him.That if he isn't remorseful or willing to forget,then I can turn down the offer since it would be clear that he won't stop pestering me. |
0rex:very funny,but no one's laughing. |
sadoz:well countenance isn't just facial expression..It can be deduced from a person's voice. |
With the kind of comments people are making,I am very convinced that many are indeed mad,yet few are roaming the streets!who here would advice his sister or his girlfriend to do that just to get a job?Its wrong how many who are meant to be mature persons actually reason on nairaland.Well,I didn't post this for commendation or whatever trash many are spewing here.I just needed to vent and get it off my chest.I must say,I pity our generation with the kind of comments am reading here. |
Bcole:lol..thanks sha.I just laughed for the first time since the useless interview.I am however not passionate about anything other than practising my profession.I will look into it though,maybe as a freelance writer. |
femi4:while my mates dey find work,I go dey go court for sexual harrasment matter abi?Way to go!Bros abeg leave him.We are in the system,we know what's up.He was obviously thinking this is an episode of "suits". |
indigene:please learn to read diligently.I never mentioned that I am cohabiting with my fiance.Thank you! |
happney65:thank God you are joking.I don't live with my boyfriend,we talked on phone,He just has a way of knowing when I have something on my mind troubling me.I still stand on my decision never to compromise myself to get a job.I know my worth as a lawyer,it would just take a few more years and I will look back at these ugly experiences and smile. |
spikesC:trust me,the sexual harrasment thingy doesn't hold water in court.When even rape victims are blamed some even called liars?I am just focused on getting a job.He can move on with his quest with others abeg. |
Atmmachine:If stupidity was a criminal offence,you'll get the maximum sentence-death penalty.Think before speaking especially as nairaland doesn't pay you for commenting.Next time,Shut the hell up! |

spinna:My dear,that's the way most of them behave.A lot of young female lawyers can attest to that.I once called my former boss to help me get a job with a SAN,he just told me,'that man won't let you rest till he sleeps with you,I know him very well'.That's how I just killed the thought of working with the SAN. |
henribj:That would make the workplace very uncomfortable for me.Plus,once a boss has asked a lady out,he starts criticizing her work,treating her with disrespect just because she turned him down.How can I be at my best professionally in that kind of tense atmosphere? |
henribj:lol..guy everyone knows lawyers are meant to dress smartly.A client or firm looking to hire you assesses you first by your dress sense.They wouldn't want to hire someone who looks shabby.Infact,lawyers who dress shabbilly are either percieved as unsuccessful or not smart enough.That's because the profession is all about a good image and charisma.Besides,my makeup was very minimal.So make I go on deeper life level for the interview,then when am resuming work,I will turn up looking sharp?The toasting will still take place na.Men who are He-goats just don't know where to draw the line professionally.If they even interview a goat wearing a skirt suit,they will still make a move regardless. |
kinibigdeal:My brother,I was so down when I got home,that I just had to tell my fiance everything because he sensed my counternance.There's definitely no way am going back there.Because my guess is,he will not stop asking me out.Its just so depressing for me.I just want to work and be appreciated for my intellect,not to become oga's bed warmer. |
My joy knew no bounds when my landlord's wife called a lawyer she once worked with to get me an interview appointment with his firm. Despite my tiredness after the POP ceremony, I managed to wake up early to get there by 8.am. My hopes were high with the possibility of getting a job barely 24hrs after POP. That's how I waited till 10.am o, before the man showed up. He ushered me into his office, and the interview began. First off, I pride myself as a lady who dresses decently both for corporate and for casual occasions. So, this wasn't a case of immoral dressing on my part. That's how the managing partner interviewing me started looking at me to the point of me wondering if something was amiss. The next thing he said was, "you look really smart, and pretty. I like you already counsel."I just mumbled "thank you Sir". As a lawyer, he asked some pretty tough scenario based questions, which I scaled through by giving my legal opinion. He then asked for my credentials, which I proceeded to give him. That was when the man proceeded to leave his seat and placed his hand on my shoulder. I was so pertrified! I shook free and he got the message that he should keep his hands to his damn self. The interview then took a personal turn. He started asking about my relationship status. I quickly responded that I was engaged. His reply was "me too am married, can't you see my ring", I like you a lot...you are a very pretty lady. I am sure a lot of judges are fighting over you in this state. Your credentials are great, you seem smart, just my kind of woman..what if I want to date you?". I was so shocked!! That was when I told him straight off that I don't date married guys, let alone one who may become my boss. Also that I am in a very committed relationship and don't condole cheating. He was a bit stunned, but took it in good faith. He asked a few other questions before ending the interview, saying his other partners would interview me on monday, that's when I will know if I am getting the job. This experience left me very shocked and sad, that an interviewer would blatantly ask me out. Whatever happened to work ethics and morality? I just hope I don't get experiences like this again. Its very insulting and demeaning to say the least. Please, Nigerian men this is so wrong. A woman should be interviewed and hired for her brains and academic intellect, not because she is pretty and you just want a new plaything. I was so close to insulting him, I just had to keep calm and address the issue in a very firm way. May God help all female jobseekers o. If there's anything I am not ready to do is to sleep with any man, because he is in a position to give me a job. Not after 6 years invested into my legal career. Not now, not ever! |
Ryanxu:please where can gionee m3 mini be bought at 16500 in ado ekiti.thanks. |
For me,I am staying back to apply for jobs o.I feel going home will make me too relaxed.You may think you are strong enough,but slowly the laziness and i-dont-care attitude will creep in.You'll be like "afterall,na free house and free food".There would be little or no push to go the extra mile to get something doing.I am a lady,and I am proud to say I havnt gone home since january,nor called to ask for a dime from anyone since november last year.Being independent is tough,but it prepares you for life ahead.My friends say I should have come as a man.While my corper frnds are busy mapping out how to hold their bf's with pregnancy to get the ring,me na how I go see work before december be my headache o.Thankfully,my rent is not expiring till beginning of january.Its my plan to stay in ekiti,while am hustling to get a job anywhere else,then I can relocate.Life is tough o,but once you take a bold decision to stand tall and fend for yourself,it would help you overcome many hurdles.I feel your parents will respect you and realize that you are trying to be someone in life,when you give them that space,if not dem go just see you finish.My friend a batch b corper that went home has been lamentingn,that the younger ones talk to him anyhow.Even the mother don dey send am to boil beans put for fire because dem see am for house.God forbid o.Before you stay home for up to 2 months,you would have started getting the "what's your plan for your life now?" talk.Anyways,I guess I have always been very independent right from my childhood.It is my prayer that God helps us all o.Because honestly,its not easy to see a child thru sch,that's why I decided to stop depending on my family after my call to bar.From the 19800 I was able to save more than a hundred and fifty thousand ,yet I took care of my self well.Its all about management and good planning.I just dey pity corpers when no get savings.Even if you must go home,please have some money to be paying your little bills till you get a job.If not,get sth small so that you won't lose your respect in your family.I wish us all goodluck.No more 19800,life has officially begun! |
I saw it live in Ekiti,where the guy in front of me on the queue was bounced back..Heard the sanction is like 2 weeks to a month extension with half pay.The affected corpers went to the secretariat sha,to know their fate. |
Throw it away definitely..if I tell you the way I hate that khaki eh!Especially the way all those ekiti men were hailing me with "corpershun,ajuwaya,e kpele corper" every CDS and clearance day;because of the uniform. |
Let me book space.Will download my full unedited experience in Ado ekiti,Ekiti state.In all,even though the useless ministry of justice did not pay me a dime,I still thank God for the experience.Good to go oooo.Na Godwin... |
Was it the palmers cream you bought?That one leaves a greasy feel on the skin like vaseline.The lotion is better.Its overrated sha,or maybe because I used it for a long time that's why it stopped working. |
We ladies are never satisfied with our body.God will help us o.All this to attract a man.Hian!When na the not so fine girls dey marry every saturday,the fine ones dey buy asoebi.Una try. |
Babalawoo:lmao..true talk o! |
fwwins:lol,Guy relax!Who you wan threaten here with lawyer?To be honest,I was very close to insulting you when you made that comment about me,but just decided to let it slide.You may be innocent,but your comments so far raises doubt as to your good intentions.Besides,insult is part of nairaland or any other online forum,so suck it up and think well before commenting to avoid any.Abi you no read seun disclaimer,that everyone is personally responsible for whatever he or she posts or uploads on nairaland?Guy u funny sha..Besides,which court of law has jurisdiction over online disputes?I dey ask because I no know o.Or you wan serve court idowu summons online?abi you know her full name and traceable address?abeg,calm down there and accept your mistakes.Tempers are at boiling point here,so just chill if you really don't have anything to contribute on how to solve d problem here. |
XKZ:nah..too stressful.You can download on www.bookos-z1.org |
Idowuogbo:Amen ooo.May God bless you too dear;and also other concerned nairalanders for your efforts in this matter.I did all that was humanly possible to help.If I had enough means,I would have taken up the matter for free.Sadly,I am just a new wig,still trying to find my feet.Right now,we just have to wait and hope this ends well for @peachafrique. |
@ryanxu,Pls Where can I get it in ibadan or warri @16500. |
Mskrisx:I need to find an interpreter for this igbo o..babe I feel you sha.I know how I suffered since november till this month at my nysc ppa,with all the wife beaters and useless tenancy cases i did.All for 19800 and some change here and there.I no get 10000 naira sef to leave for any scammer now o.How?for this tight weather?I go pursue the person enter python hole.live! |
dominique:my dear,the last time we talked was like a week ago.As for pursuing the case,I advised her on her legal options available bearing in mind everything at stake.I just decided to let her make up her mind on what path to take.I don't want it to seem like I am pushing too hard.She hasn't reached out to me since then. |
Why are there no reviews of this phone on the internet?I tire o.I just want to be sure before I buy.I dodged the bullet of infinix products that don't have stock gallery app or file manager.Please if you have the phone,drop in both positive and negative reviews on it. |
fwwins:Thank you for finally understanding.Next time,just take a minute to ask the right questions before tagging me with "nairalanders and forming".I strongly take exception to that. |

Lastly, this is just one of the many sexual advances you'll get in your profession, so shore up your guard and prepare to repel them...Be safe!
