Sorry to break the rule. I want assistance on how to post a topic for discussion. Please help me out

Type it on Microsoft word, save the file name as Nairaland on your desktop, then restart your computer.

. . . and if "experienced" people tell u dat there's no future for you, wat are u gonna do? Remain abroad (if u are abroad) or jump in d lagoon (if ur in Nigeria)?

. . . .anyways, I think your future lies in ur hand irrespective of wat u studied or wat country u are in. All u gotta do is make d best of it. If there was no future for u I believe dat course u studied wouldn't be existing.

Shy to propose? Dat guy go shy to give im wife belle, he go shy to born pikin, he go even shy to commot outside make ppl no sabi say im don marry.
My advice for the ladies, when u meet a man dats shy to propose, propose to him. He'll be shy to say NO!

I think you are all getting the role model thing wrong!!! A role model is someone you ARE modelling your life after not just someone you admire.
So to someone like sly-k,  how can you model your life to be like Kanu, Obj, Dangote and Akunyili at the same time, they have nothing in common! It shows that you are either CONFUSED or you HAVE NO IDEA what you want to do with your life.

Wow! ur so intelligent! Am not sure dats d 'role model' the poster meant ur talking abt. Otherwise, he wouldn't have said 'In Corporate Nigeria', he woulda just said 'In Nigeria'. Na all of us be corporate? Me wey no be corporate no say I no fit be soludo, but I still call him my Role Model in Corporate Nigeria. But in reality, my role model na D-banj 

Soludo

Jaylon, I hate to say this but ur posts are irritating! because u dont read other ppl's post carefully b4 u reply. Isn't every1 here saying the same thing?

Mr Jaylon - feeling like superman! Abi na Voltron! Aren't we still saying the same thing? that Lagos SG isn't targeting the Igbos but is only bringing down illegal markets?

The only part I disagree wit you is that you claim to visit these markets and yet haven't noticed that most of them are dominated by Igbo traders?

Must you fall in love? How are we sure if all those love stories we hear are real? Carry go jare and stop complaining!

Why was my original server33 ID banned? Av gotten over it though, but I must say it was banned for the lamest reason, and I am highly disappointed in u - moderator!

Meanwhile, here's a weed picture I took at amsterdam. Look closely at the menu. . . don't be deceived wit the coffee, cakes, tea, snacks. . . they all contain igbo too. Y'all should give it a try. A trial will convince u. Lmao! We're all adults on this forum ain't it?

Tried it once recently - legally in amsterdam. Since then, I always dream about a vacation trip to amsterdam . . . am going there next weekend again! Ha ha!

And why is presido1 accusing Hesperus of trying it at old age? Na bad thing say we no get the opportunity take am for JSS3 like u? Abi because we were responsible young kids back then?

Meanwhile, why would I have tried it then after I saw the effect on a close friend who took it. He ran home immediately to his mum saying "Mummy Pls pray for me! Pray for me! Angels are chasing me!" And this isn't a joke at all. My friend was really scared that he was seeing some things in white following him - he wasn't sure if they were demons or angels. Im mama wan kill am dat day - I remember vividly.

The Lagos state govt is targeting illegal markets and not Igbos. Isn't it just a coincidence that most of the ilegal markets na igbo men dey there? Come to think of it sef which major markets for lagos no be igbo?

Tha_dude:
It is only reasonable that when they reject fellow brother and sisters back at home the visa fees is channeled into the cost of deporting their fellow brothers and sister in America, this an act of using Nigerians at home to be the keepers of their brothers and sisters in the USA.

I like this part!

@ Poster, from what you said, you graduated from your masters program in september last year. Most of the oil companies do not just conduct tests and interviews for graduate positions randomly. They usually advertise yearly in the dailies, and this comes up usually around May-August. So, you would have to wait a little while to make your applications. Meanwhile, you should drop your CV on Total and Exxonmobil website for graduate positions. Try careers.total.com and fill out an unsolicited application. I wish u all the best.

My other advice is that you can remove your M.Sc degree from your CV when applying to non-oil companies, as this would usually make them have a bias towards you.

laplace:
You need to wake up, pal.  I think you were living in a dream land and suddenly, you just discovered that reality is dawning on you.  Bachelors, Masters degree, internship and so what?  What have you got to offer?  What can you do for the companies you're applying to?  What have you been doing for the past 7 months?  Eating and drinking and waiting for the companies to call you to earn N750K?  You seem to be far from realities.

Continue your search, but stop looking down on 'smaller' companies.  Chevron, Shell, Mobil, Texaco are good, but they might not be the best for you.  I don't work for any of this coys but I earn something good, between N450K and N500K.  I've got only a first degree, though and I don't think a masters degree will make it N1 higher.  Better performance will definitely make it several hundreds of thousands better!

There are many other coys you can apply to: Accenture, KPMG, PWC, NNPC, new generation banks such as GTBank, Intercontinental Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, etc, Unilever, P&G, PZ, Reckitt Benkisser, and a lot of others.

And you, why have you decided to vent your frustration out on the poster? Did he tell you he was dreaming? Or is it because his credentials could be better than yours? Did you not see from his post that he has been applying to other companies besides oil companies? It is only natural for someone with a masters degree in petroleum engineering to aim for a career with Oil companies.

Engineering.

This just goes to show that the bank is standing on solid grounds!

Pay N1,000 to chop correct meal or pay N50 to chop roadside meal wey fit run ur belle anytime? Which do u prefer? A word is enough for the wise.

How come non of you are addressing the point I made above?

You didn't make any point that deserves to be addressed. Get something good to do with your time!

Its not the career you choose that matters but how well and how far you go along the career.

But this scam format has been on for a while. See link - http://redtape.msnbc.com/2009/01/post-1.html#posts
Why is it now that a Nigerian did it there is so much noise? Abeg jare, d Nigerian is a corrupt as the rest of the world.

Superbrain:
Let's call a spade a spade. If you are not satisfied with the services of your bank, then opt for a better option. Don't remain stuck there and keep licking the wounds they would continously inflict on your financial life.

Gba!!! Better advice haven't been given!

I just think the services of GTB [/b]and [b]Intercontinental Bank, are the best you can ever get.

lol. I dey watch the thing too. I was just giving RSA an advice. Easy!

blacksta:
But what happens when we do all go out and spend the new cash that's been dropped into our pockets? The answer is that people selling clothes and cars can start raising their prices again, because we feel better off and don't mind paying a bit more. So prices rise. But then, of course, we all come to realize that this has been another of the government's elaborate frauds. There's more money in our pockets, but it's worth less. It doesn't buy us any more than what we had before. All we've done is spent our savings. Thanks, Gordon!

What if after printing more money, we all collectively agree not to increase d prices of goods and services? Will there still be inflation? Just wondering cos av always loved economics but ended up with engineering.

Where are the Economists on this forum?

@ ajiri avae. I really dont have comments for u anymore. I just want 2 let u know that the mistake of a teller receiving N100 note in a pack of N1000, or having a fake not interpacked is not in anyway dumb. It could happen to anybody, and it happened to me a couple of times when I worked as a teller, and am so damn sure dat I'm smart as SMART could be.

Also, I guess u dont know dat a teller is made to sign on any pack of notes he releases to a customer. And if any wrong denomination is found inside, u are made to pay for it immediately. Do u know how many times I paid for mispacks and short packs? Do u know how many times I paid for fake notes out of my salary? Did I produce these fake notes myself? No. I received them from customers just like dat.

Take it easy on dem bankers ok?
