Jobs/VacanciesRe: Appzone Or Deloitte Which One Is Better..advice A Friend Pls.. by simiolu1(m):
Depends on a number of factors.

1. What course did your friend study in school?

A Computer Science/Engineering major should go to Appzone where he or she would be exposed to software development while someone who studied accountancy/law/social science degree should go to Deloiite.


2. What are your friends' future career plans?

I know a Political Science undergrad of Unilag who is really into software development. In fact, he had so many projects to do last semester that he failed like 4 courses. Not because Pol Science isn't a good course but because he sees his future in software. If your friend wants a future career in Tech and wants to develop Tech Skills (UI/UX design, Prototyping, Front End, Back End, Software Testing, Agile, etc) he or she should go to Appzone. But if he or she wants a future career in professional services, Deloitte would be the better bet.

3. What type of job would he or she be doing?

When I did my internship, I worked in a major Telecoms company on the Island while I lived in Ipaja (though there was staff bus). I learned the basics of Microwave transmission (installation, decommission, link provisioning), Networking, 2G, 3G, LTE Architecture etc and I was even climbing 50m masts for a salary of 18k. I had friends who worked at FAAN (inside MMA, Ikeja) collecting 15k who were only carrying files for oga, buying amala, going to the bank to deposit money into someone's account and other radarada while collecting tips from oga. These set of people told me my internship was too stressful, that 18k was not worth the risk. After 6 months of working, I had learnt and done so much while they had learnt or done nothing!

Why the story? If any of those places would be giving your friend a job that will add little or nothing to him or her, he or she should walk away from it without looking at the monetary gains that would be lost.

I almost forgot; if your friend knows he or she won't be able to cope in a very fast-paced environment with tight deadlines and a lot of pressure he or she should run from Deloitte. How do I know? My brother has a female friend who started working at Deloitte some time ago. For the first 3 - 6 months she used to cry at work. Only reason she stayed was because my brother made her realize what working for Deloitte for 3 years would do to her career. She has said that after 3 years she will stop working there.

I hope I made enough sense. grin grin

TRAFFIC GENERATED FROM WEBSITE
Bro. I am sorry to say, you are a confirmed mumu.

Even if you have one billion traffic, if you don't monitize it (e.g. sell adverts like Seun, do referral etc), you are not going to make 1 kobo. MMM does not do any of these. It doesn't monetize its website.

HELP FROM OTHER COUNTRIES

This statement confirms the earlier 'mumuism' assertion. Other countries dash you money?!!!

You simply need deliverance with 'better slap'. You have been hypnotized.
Some people just think traffic will just transfer money into one's account. SMH.

MMM Nigeria's home page is devoid of adverts. None whatsoever and people claim they turn traffic to cash. Many people don't even understand online business models.

PhonesRe: Trump’s Plan For Iphone Production Is A Bad One by simiolu1(m): 1:03am On Jan 21, 2017
Elparaiso:
Actually, Chinese workers would lose their jobs. The reason why Apple took those jobs to China is because the labor over there is cheaper than in America.

From some of the analyses I have read, if Apple were to bring those jobs to the US, more Americans would have jobs.

However, the federal minimum wage in America is about $7.50 and I pretty sure it's higher than that of China. This means Apple will pay more to produce iPhones. This extra amount would be recovered from the end consumer, you. So the iPhone you buy for #200,000 might now be sold for about #300,000 if not more. Trump is just shouting, "jobs jobs", he hasn't taken the time to find out the consequences.
Nice analysis. Cost is part of the reasons; not all. There's also expertise and efficiency of production. Ever since the Asians perfected the art of just-in-time production; Europeans and Americans have been trying to keep up.

MMM has come to stay.
# I stand with MMM.

REASONS WHY MMM WILL NOT DIE SOON AND MAY NEVER DIE

(1) NEW MODEL: MMM recently launched a new model that will ensure that there is a daily limit to the amount that will be released.This will make sure that there is substantial amount of money in the system ALL THE TIME.NO MORE massive GH.A good GH(getting help)/PH(providing help) balance ratio will be maintained.This is for the OVER-ALL BENEFIT of the system. Some people may not like this model, but MMM is sorry about any inconvenience caused.MMM is not a get rich quick program.
(2) EXTRA CASH: You don't tell a man whose source of income is MMM that MMM is robbing PETER to pay PAUL.The man knows that when Peter is robbed to pay Paul,He will be robbed to pay Peter and Paul will be robbed to pay him. At the end, money is re-distributed among members.
(3) [s]TRAFFIC GENERATED: MMM gets steady income from the traffic generated by millions of participants using its website.MMM is more popular than facebook in Nigeria. The owner of facebook, Mark Zuckerberg is the 5th richest in the world and one of the ways he makes his money is through trafic generated by his website. MMM is in over 120 countries and has over 200million participants.[/s]
(4) NEW MEMBERS SIGN UP: despite media attacks, new members keep signing up to the program. The new members know that those discouraging them will not provide for their financial needs.The new members have seen people who became finacially free and empowered through MMM and won't want to be left out.
(5) OLD MEMBERS RE-DONATE: more than 3millions nigerians have benefitted from MMM nigeria and will remain loyal to the program despite attempts by some enemies of progress. They understand the ideology and will keep participating openly or codedly.
(6) HELP FROM OTHER COUNTRIES: MMM is global, members can help each other from different countries. Global assistance is one of the way MMM survives. Its a one BIG FAMILY.
(7) PAUSE MODE: A pause mode/freezing of accounts is one of the strategies used over the years to ensure STABILITY and SUSTAINABILITY. old mavros are frozen and released gradually as the PH/GH ratio balances.Nobody will loose money,just delays.
(8 ) DELAYED GH: MMM sometimes delay GH to ensure that more money flows into the system to ensure a more healthy and sustainable system.Delay is not denial as everybody get served.
(9) LONGEVITY: MMM has lasted for more than 5 years,since 2011 and will not go anywhere any time soon, not even in the nearest future. MMM has come to stay.
(10) GENIUS MANAGEMENT: The founder of MMM is a genius programmer and mathematician. Russian and other internationally acclaimed technicians/engineers are working round the clock to ensure the smooth operation of MMM.
(11) CLOUD SERVER: MMM uses cloud server, not shared server. This explains why participants can use the website even when programmers are working at the background.Unlike other programmes that have to shut down for weeks and months for maintenance.No government can shut the cloud server, just as goverment CAN NOT SHUT facebook,youtube,twitter etc
(12) RE-START: if it becomes VERY OBVIOUS that MMM has become over saturated/filled with members, then A re-start will occur. MMM has 3million members already and there are over 180million nigerians, do u think that will be any time soon? In a restart, MMM will manually calculate how much each member has made and those who have made 'profit' will have to forfeit their old 'excess' mavros and the 1st timers and new comers will be lined up to be paid first, followed by others. NOBODY will loose money in a pause mode or RE-START.Assuming you started MMM with 100k and you have made 1million as 'profit' that has been paid into yOur bank account already but you still have 800k as mavros in the system. MMM will clear the 800k old mavro.
Let me shock you. Visit MMM Nigeria's website; right click if you are using a computer and view page source. This is a screenshot of what you will see.

PhonesRe: Infinix Compares Ronaldo And Messi, Receives Backlash. by simiolu1(m): 12:30am On Jan 11, 2017
To the guys here hammering away at Ronaldo vs Messi

1. Both players are highly TALENTED! Many people think talent in football is only related to dribbling skills and ability to score goals. But they forget that height itself is a talent (ask Peter Crouch and Lewandowski). SIGHT too is a talent (ask Paul Scholes). The ability to dictate the tempo of a game is a talent (ask Xavi, Modric, Ozil, Pirlo), jump power too is a form of talent. Talent is very vast. It can't be wrapped into a box at anyone's convenience.

2. But for Infinix to imply that Messi doesn't work hard; they're simply high on cheap weed. One cannot play at that peak for so long (9 seasons) without working hard. Mikel Obi, Taiye Taiwo and Messi emerged almost at the same time (without mentioning countless other players). Whose game has evolved faster, better and more maturely in the lot? Messi! Do these Infinix guys know what it mean to exert your body week-in week-out for 9 years? Running over 5 km on the pitch of play? Scoring goals from "impossible" angles? I mean, these guys (Ronaldo and Messi) have turned hat-tricks to "normal" things that we're starting to think they are superhumans. They are not! They are simply hardworking! They both work extra hard; trying to be better, playing under different coaches, adapting to different styles of play etc.

3. Saying that for someone to prove his mettle, he or she has to play in the EPL, Italian Serie A or any other league is baldderdash. 1st Class students don't need to prove their 1st Class certificate in another Institution before the world recognizes their genius. A great player is a great player; fullstop! grin

4. I find it rather surprising that Griezzman is the 3rd World Best but didn't make the FIFA FIFPRO Best Eleven. I think FIFA and other award bodies would soon start having headaches because Suarez, Griezzmann and other players are upping their game. I only pray that Griezmann is consistent. With the way Suarez is going, next year's awards are going to be a tough call.

5. Ronaldo is currently the World's Best Football Player. He had a great year. Some will say he was lucky; but in reality, he worked for it.

Rather than compare these guys, I will take glory in the fact that I watched them play. I know one day, I will watch both of them live! They both have changed the game in ways we can't fathom yet. My children and grandchildren will definitely hear of their feats from me.

My 2 cents

I can authoritatively tell you that the traders were giving due notice. I have a friend whose mum has 2 shops in that market. He told me this morning that the market had been demolished overnight.

What the shop owners are complaining about is the settlement LASG will be giving them. Some bought those shops for close to 1.5million naira and some more. But LASG is only willing to pay 500,000 naira.

Get your facts right next time.

EducationRe: How Much Did You Spend On Your Final Year Project?? by simiolu1(m): 9:05am On Dec 23, 2016
School: LAUTECH. Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences.

I spent about 35k on the project itself. Printing was 3 for 10 naira . Can't remember the specific price of binding. Did my typing and data analysis myself. Funny thing is I didn't write my project by hand. I typed it straight and convinced my supervisor that it was better and faster. I would print each chapter in his office and submit to him for correction.

Almost a year after graduation, I spent another 10k to have the project printed in a journal. So in total, I spent about 45k

EducationRe: LAUTECH Students Protest Over 7 Months Strike (Pics, Video) by simiolu1(m): 9:55pm On Dec 09, 2016
I don't even know what to say! Graduated in 2014 from LAUTECH when in fact, I was supposed to graduate in 2013. When employers see the discrepancy of your graduation date and the date on your certificate, they always ask questions as if you went to forge the certificate at Oluwole.

My grouse is with the students. They allowed the strike to even reach 6 months! Just last week, one of my course-mates who was a comrade in school had to openly call out leaders of the School's two main parties to do something about the strike. My guess is that the SUG guys went on "holiday" and played politics with this matter. I know some palms would have been greased too to make sure the students are kept silent.

So I guess any of the following happened

1. The SUG was not a party to the protests! If they were, they would have issued the school authorities notifications officially about the planned protest. Therefore, the school authorities won't be able to disown the students in case the police clamp down on them.

2. Some members of the SUG organized the protests without the backing of some key figures in the SUG. Those key figures are the SUG President, P.R.O and Fin Sec.

3. The students decided to boycott the SUG and organized the protests themselves.

If the organizers of the protest are on nairaland, please answer this question: Was the SUG involved in the protest? I ask because I can categorically say that LAUTECH'S SUG was actively involved in the protests by UI students when their VC started misbehaving some months back. So if they (LAUTECH'S SUG) could mobilize to go to Ibadan from Ogbomoso but cannot find a solution to their own crises, then you will agree with me that something "fishy" is definitely going on.

Back then, I was part of the #AkalaMustGo Protest. That day, the VC was carried to the protest venue at Isale General from his lodge. ID Aluta was SUG President then. Police-men couldn't shoot at students just because the protest was "official". The policemen that shot tear-gas that day had themselves to blame as their armoured truck was taken over by students. It was after the protest that they (policemen) started arresting students in their hostels.

For those of you saying the video is bad; it is a known fact that LAUTECH school authorities use photographs to track, suspend and rusticate students because the school has a computerized portal for student registration and tuition fee payment.
