You can't just copy and paste a story here without a source. Please, indicate the page you copied this from!

We need a direct link to the page where you copied this from. You didn't copy it from the front page, did you?
Jobs/Vacancies › Re: Nairaland Members Not Reaching Companies Demand by Seun(mod): 11:48am On Jun 28, 2007
Did you pre-screen the CVs to make sure they were actually qualified? Why not try asking the company why?
Foreign Affairs › Re: Bye Bye Tony Blair by Seun(mod): 11:46am On Jun 28, 2007
Source, please? Thanks. Tony Blair is cute and earnest, but i don't know if it's all an act since he supported Bush.
Career › Re: Do You Hate Your Job? by Seun(mod): 11:34am On Jun 28, 2007
Whenever I have to deal with yet another spammer/scammer, I hate my job. But when I get paid, I love my job.

Most people, like me, have certain aspects of their jobs that they hate, but this is balanced out by the other aspects of their job that they love. For example, getting paid. Or working in an air-conditioned office. Being treated with more respect by people if the job is prestigious. Getting an official car. Representing the Managing Director at important functions. Getting to decide who is allowed to see the boss (secretaries and receptionists). wink

So I don't hate my job. It's much better than having nothing to do and no income at the end of the month. However, if your company doesn't give you the resources you need to do a good job, you'd truly hate your job.
Career › Re: How To Handle A Non-Paying Employer? by Seun(mod): 11:19am On Jun 28, 2007
The company is probably in debt; I don't think any company would refuse to pay salaries for no reason. He should look for a way to 'borrow' some of their customers and make them his customers so he gets paid directly.
Tech Jobs › Re: Any Programming Or Software Engineering Jobs? by Seun(mod): 10:53am On Jun 28, 2007
I was interested in software development as a young kid and my interest remains strong, but I have grown almost too lazy to do any actual coding, although I've been playing with python for a few weeks now. I think that, while we all like to imagine ourselves to be programmers, the real jobs available are database, network and system admin jobs! The real opportunity is not in writing new software but in managing and customizing existing software. wink
Culture › Re: What Is The Significance Of The Yoruba Tribal Marks by Seun(mod): 10:54pm On Jun 27, 2007
To those people saying they want to give their children tribal marks, why don't you let them grow up and decide for themselves whether they want the marks? Especially the girls, please. Don't visit your parent's sin on your children. I'm begging you please, don't do this wicked thing to them. it's not their fault that your parents did it to you. Ask your parents to apologize to you. Oh my goodness this is too sad cry
Romance › Re: My Friend Is Pregnant For Me! by Seun(mod): 5:58pm On Jun 27, 2007
That makes a lot of sense. Never marry because you "should". Marry because you want to, no matter what.
Webmasters › Re: All Nigerian Sites With .NG Domains Were Down by Seun(mod): 5:40pm On Jun 27, 2007
Congratulations, Nigeria. The .NG domains are back! (It may take a while for our local ISPs to respond to that)

don't tell me you dnt knw how unpredictable these things can be
Yes, I know that servers can be unpredictable. Our real incompetence is our decision to host the domains locally knowing fully well that our infrastructure is not yet what it should be. What happens next time there is no diesel because of a strike? What happens when the administrator falls ill? Is there a backup server? Is there a backup ISP in case the main ISP goes down, which is a regular occurence as we already know. Most important question: why bother our little heads with all these matters when we can just host the damn thing abroad for peanuts?

Are the NIRA people incompetent. No, they are not. They are as competent as the rest of us (you and me). lipsrsealed

Gamine, do you realise that you are also implicated? What solution have you provided so far? I can tell you mine!
Christianity Etc › Re: Islamic Scholar Promotes Adult Breastfeeding. Update: He has Been Suspended by Seun(mod): 4:38pm On Jun 27, 2007
Scholar suspended after allowing breastfeeding of adults:

Nothing to see here, so move along. Breastfeeding isn't a major problem in Islam, but violence is.

Amazingly, this includes Google Nigeria: www.google.com.ng. Our incompetence is harming google right now!
Nairaland General › Re: Construct An Air Conditioner With $30.00 by Seun(mod): 3:53pm On Jun 27, 2007
This is not about cutting folks out of business. What stops AC importers from going into manufacturing? Don't you know that those you are importing from also started in this way? Progress is a good thing please.

Why do we like cutting corners? Because we don't have so much money. Is it a crime not to have enough money to buy a standard air-conditioner and enough fuel to power it when all one needs is a a little cool breeze?

Don't you know that some of these 'poor' people causing us trouble will behave much better if they work under AC?
Culture › Re: Inter Tribal Marriage by Seun(mod): 3:06pm On Jun 27, 2007
It depends on how strong their love is, I guess. Family opposition can be worn down by persistence, I think.
Romance › Re: For Guys: Is 26 years Suitable To Marry? by Seun(mod): 2:47pm On Jun 27, 2007
I'm almost 25; I'm so old and yet I feel so young. I am not even thinking of such things.

Moving this to sports.
Computers › Re: Difference Between Celeron, Centrino And Pentium? by Seun(mod): 10:22am On Jun 27, 2007
I think the size of the cache is more important than the number of processors on a laptop. I'd rather buy a single core Pentium M770 with 2mb of L2 cache (HP 510) than a dual core celeron. Celerons are just pure evil.
Family › Re: Do Parents Really Know Best? by Seun(mod): 7:21am On Jun 27, 2007
Why would parents always know best? Are they Gods or superhuman beings? Parents are just grown-up kids!
Technology Market › Changing This To A General-purpose 'for Sale' Section? by Seun(mod): 7:14am On Jun 27, 2007
Hello Guys,

I'm thinking of changing this section of a forum to a general-purpose section where you can buy or sell anything you feel like buying or selling, and not just computers and phones. A place to dispose one's possessions.

How do you see this idea?

Wow, you're good. If it's real.
TV/Movies › Re: Notice: The Toon Section Is Going To Disappear! by Seun(mod): 6:01am On Jun 27, 2007
I could create it as a new section "Graphics & Toons" or "Games & Toons" Or "Graphics & Games & Toons"

Romance › Re: I Have Religious Differences With My Boyfriend by Seun(mod): 4:53am On Jun 27, 2007
I wonder if Jesus Christ will also marry her and give her a holy baby like the Virgin Mary. lipsrsealed
Romance › Re: I Cant Fall In Love Again; Did My Ex-girl Jazz Me? by Seun(mod): 6:36pm On Jun 26, 2007
She did not jazz you. Your problem is that you are unfit to be in a relationship. The universe doesn't like you. Sorry!

Now will you please stop posting in all caps so the universe can forgive you? The universe really hates all caps.
Sports › Re: Chris Benoit Found Dead by Seun(mod): 6:32pm On Jun 26, 2007
Why would he kill his wife and kid, even if he wanted to kill himself?
It makes no sense, unless he committed suicide after killing his wife in anger by mistake.

One laptop is blue and the other seems black.

I only wish u could see what some people like me see in the spirit realm then u will be convince
Why do you "see things" in the "spirit realm"? It's just the work of the spirits of imagination and hallucination. wink
