Family › Re: Should Married Couple Sleep On Different Beds? by Seun(mod): 9:51pm On Aug 05, 2006

People sleep better when they sleep alone on a bed, so if a husband and a wife wants to sleep in the same room they need two beds. Married couples should sleep on different beds laid next to each other.

Poems For Review › Re: The Linda-Bashiru Story by Seun(mod): 9:22pm On Aug 05, 2006

Linda is a character in the Nijarita story. She's a studious JAMBite who lives with her mom.

Ms. Bella is Linda's single mother. She's hyper-active but good-natured.

Bashiru is Linda's self-proclaimed 'soul mate'. He's a prankster and joker by nature.

Poems For Review › Re: The Linda-Bashiru Story by Seun(mod): 2:10pm On Aug 05, 2006

Linda woke up at 6:00am to the sound of a GSM phone alarm. Naturally, she switched it off and went back to sleep. Beside her, on the same small bed, her mother was also sleeping.

Later in the morning, she woke up again. The room was bright. She checked the time on her phone. It was 11:30am already! She snatched a large, faded towel and a bucket, and rushed towards her bedroom door.

Linda: Today is the day.

She opened the door of her room and almost collided with her mom who was about to enter at the same time.

Mom: Linda!

Linda stepped back.

Linda: Sorry mummy.

Mom: What's chasing you so early in the morning?

Linda: It's JAMB, mummy.

Mum reached out to pull Linda out of the room, towards herself.

Mum: My daughter is going to be a medical doctor! Neighbors, come and rejoice with me! Today is my day!

Linda: Mummy, please, you're embarrassing me.

Mum: "Mummy please, you're embarrassing me." My daughter already talking like a respectable doctor!

Linda: Mummy, please.

Mummy released her hold on Linda.

Voice From Corridor: Good morning Madam Bella.

Mum: Ah, good morning my son.

Corridor Voice: Linda, how are you today?

Linda: How are you yourself.

Linda: Mummy, please let me check my result first. Then we can start celebrations. Let's not count our chickens before they are hatched.

Mummy placed her hands on her hips

Mum: Everybody listen to Dr. Mrs. Bella: "let's not count our chickens before they are hatched!"

Mummy looked up as if to pray.

Mum: For my intelligent daughter, God, I thank you.

Linda: I'll just go and take my bath before going to town to check my result.

Linda walked out of her single-room apartment towards the well in their 'face-me-I-face-you' flat. After fetching a bucket of water, she marched towards the bathroom to wash herself. Fortunately, she didn’t have to wait on a queue because the fellow-residents had all taken their baths earlier in the morning.

Business › Who Is Your Customer? by Seun(mod): 11:40am On Aug 05, 2006

Customer service is widely recognized as an key aspect of business success.
However, one needs to know who one's customer is, before one can start serving them.

Some people believe that the users of one's product or service are customers. By this definition:
- The customers of a children's book publisher are the children who read the books.
- The customers of a free-to-air TV station like STV are the people who tune in to watch their programmes.
- The customers of an ad-supported website like Google or Nairaland are the people who use it for free.

However, I believe that a customer is someone who put money into your hands or bank account. That is:
- The customers of a children's book publisher are the parents that buy the books for their kids.
- The customers of a free-to-air TV station are the advertisers that sponsor its programmes.
- The customers of an ad-supported website are its advertisers or advertising networks it belongs to!

In other words, you are not my customer unless you are responsible for my revenue. Is this right?

Business › Re: Doing Business With 300,000 Naira Capital? by Seun(mod): 10:05am On Aug 05, 2006

I have more tips for you:
1) Don't assume that you will get the money your uncle has promised until it is in your account. Alternatives exist.
2) Don't be eager to spend your capital after securing it. It is not running anywhere.
3) Don't enter into a crowded business like recharge card distribution if you can't do better than others.
4) Choose a business that involves skills and ideas and services that most people won't be able to copy.
5) Avoid get-rich-quick shemes or "investment" games that involve making money without creating any real value.
6) Don't open an office unless your business needs it and you don't have any space you can use for free.

You'll notice that I haven't suggested any specific business. One needs to know your specific abilities, what you love to do, what is in demand and what already exists in your area. The only person that knows all that is you!

Politics › Re: Ideological Divisions In Nigerian Politics by Seun(mod): 4:58pm On Aug 04, 2006

Because it means they don't really believe in what has made them successful. And that's sad.

Instead of being proud of their hard-won achievements, they act as if they've been a liability to the world. Whereas they are assets. In the process of capitalistic competition, they have delivered superior products to us.

Politics › Re: Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala For President In 2007? by Seun(mod): 4:26pm On Aug 04, 2006

I think she has announced her presidential ambition with style:
"“Your Excellency, I have delivered on your targets and benchmarks and I believe it is time for me to look after my family whilst at the same time contributing to Nigeria in another fashion."

http://www.thisdayonline.com/nview.php?id=54887

What is this "other fashion" by which she intends to contribute to Nigeria? Presidency is all I can think off!

Career › When Do You Work And For How Long? by Seun(mod): 4:01pm On Aug 04, 2006

I start my forum moderation work every morning between 9pm and 12 noon.

I take a break between 12 noon and 2pm for my breakfast, then I return to my PC.

After this point I lose focus in my6 work and spend time browsing wikipedia and manga forums, as well as posting on Nairaland and even chatting. At intervals, I return to Nairaland to moderate a bit more.

Sometime between 8pm and 10pm, I stumble upon a favorite friend and work ends so I can chat for an hour or two. This may be before or after my dinner.

I work on all days of the week, especially Sundays because traffic will be more manageable then.

What about you? When do you work (which days, hours) and for how long?

Business › Re: Doing Business With 300,000 Naira Capital? by Seun(mod): 2:13pm On Aug 04, 2006

Here are my own tips and ideas:
1) Do not spend one naira out of your money without knowing exactly how much you'll make back from it.
2) Do not be too optimistic in your projections. If you have 300,000 naira, use only 200,000 naira in your budget.
3) The first step in business development is finding a solution to a genuine need that people have.
4) The second step is to find a reliable system for generating money from your solution. A revenue model.
5) A small business cannot survive if it runs out of money. Never spend 2 naira on what can cost 1 naira.
6) Always choose the business idea that costs the least amount of money regardless of how much you have.
7) Always choose the business idea that requires the least number of employees. Employees are expensive.

Celebrities › Re: Mc Weird Confesses She Is A Lesbian by Seun(mod): 1:27pm On Aug 04, 2006

Recently, she claimed that she's no longer a lesbian. This might be because:
- It's harder for a lesbian to find a compatible partner.
- The critics got to her so she decided to "repent" and be "forgiven".
