Well I'm not exactly sure, but I think there is a way to interact with moderators, maybe you can send a PM to one of the moderators of that section.

You may have been banned by the spam bot but a moderator can unban you.

Godmother: Cleanex sounds good

Cleanex sounds familiar, like the name of an existing product.
emorse: Have you considered jdilight? You could tweak the spelling a bit.
I like the originality.

I would suggest Velvety Tissue. Nice tissues are soft and smooth to touch and the name Velvety represents all that.
Properties / Re: As A Tenant; The Cons And Pros Of Living With Landlord. by spicyv1(f): 8:11pm On Oct 19, 2013
Well, I don't have any problems with living in the same compound with the House owner. I grew up to assist my dad manage his estate and I learnt a lot from how he co-ordinates living arrangements and Landlord/tenant relationship.

First off, prospective tenants are interviewed and if accepted, will be issued a written aggrement that states living rules and conditions. If you accept and sign, you will be held liable for contradictions.

With that mentality, when I went off on my own, I would always ask the landlord for a code of conduct. Also, I make sure they understand the set boundaries because really, only few landlords understand that tenants are customers and should be treated right.

jdilight: Should you pre inform him/her?



It depends on the circumstance(s) leading to your decision. You do not have to actually preinform the staff. You can pass subtle hints and gestures though.

jdilight:

What is the duration duration if you are to inform him/her?


Duration is only given in the case of resignation from the employee. Termination does not require a duration because of the psycholocial/emotional impact it may have on the employee. Best to make it quick.
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: What Is The Best Way To Fire An Employee? by spicyv1(f): 12:07pm On Oct 19, 2013
Well, what was your reason for firing her?

If you have a structured business, you ought to understand that you the business owner must have good causes to fire an employee. Causes from:

The employee has become inefficient/unproductive.

The business is experiencing a down turn and layoffs seems inevitable.

For the second cause, you'd still have to let go the staff that is most despensable, that is least productive.

The most professional way to lay off your staff is to truthfully tell them the situation. If the staff is unproductive and has proven so in several instances, prepare a formal letter of termination. Have a chat with the staff and explain that the future of your business is at stake and you can not afford the burden of laxity that translates to unproductivity.

In the case of layoffs being inevitable, say it as it is and always wish them well.

I know firing staff is not a pleasant excercise, which is why seasoned HR Personnel are required to do the job. But for a small business that cannot afford to hire one or that has the business owner wearing that hat, you have to brave it up. wink

Lol, yeah you are right. Is it not funny and quite ironic how African women wholly accept being equal to men but quickly accept the "lesser" role when Ego/Kudi/Owo/Pepper is involved? cheesy

Doesn't stop you from airing your views wink

More views: I think that the thinking that "we" do not need men is a farce. I also think that men should quit thinking that a woman no matter how successful she is, is really no success without a man in her life. Both need each other to compliment one another.

However, being complimentary to one another should not be confused as equality grin
Romance / Re: Is It A Man's World? by spicyv1(f): 7:55pm On Oct 18, 2013
I think it is a man's world really, I think that women should understand that we are women and NOT try to compete with the men. I believe the man has his place and being in charge is his right really because man was created to be in charge and the role of the woman is to support, to assist and NOT to take a Man's place.
Romance / Is It A Man's World? by spicyv1(f): 7:49pm On Oct 18, 2013
Okay, we are in the "21st century" where equality is the new anthem. Our ears have been filled with rantings from women on issues pertaining to equal rights, women want to be seen and treated as equals with men and as they say, what a man can do a woman can do better.

Now to the debate, is it still really a man's world? Are women really equals with men? Does submission from a woman make her "inferior" to the man?

kool J:

You are a very sensible lady, how some people simply write a person off as dumb and poor of character on the basis of beauty simply leaves me dumbstruck! How could one be so overly dense? Yeah and I concur with u regarding the ugly ones having nothing to lose...they seem to lose it because of the absence of looks gaddemmit!

cheesy cheesy wink cheesy cheesy

Pilotman:
The fact remains that 'the not so beautiful ones' are always inwardly more beautiful. So dont just write off sb cos of looks!

I find this statement irksome! Why is it believed that beauty is proof of dumbness or absence of character? For the life of me, I don't get how that weak assumption came to be!

In fact, I think most not so good looking people have a poor character because they have nothing to lose in the first place cheesy, okay, okay just kidding. But seriously, I don't believe that "ugliness is associated with inner beauty and prettyness with horrible character.

Chidonsky: @op i go 4 the inner beauty nothing beats the inner beauty...with much observation and psyching u will find out...the inner reflects outside because it controls 1nce action,style,approach and general beign..for those who can see it develop your psyching sight and vision..Physical fades away in a twinkle of an eye.

Great! See? For those asking about "inner eye", I think this poster clearly explains how to get one wink
Romance / Re: Physical Beauty Vs Inner Beauty. by spicyv1(f): 11:23am On Oct 10, 2013
Oh well, what about situations where you see the physicalan get involved and realise there is no inner?

Also, many times you can see the inner first actually, through actions that portray a pleasant attitude.

In the case of Rebeca in the bible, it was her inner beauty that got her her man.

Btw, you are yet to state your choice.

You know how many guys drool over hot, sexy ladies and stay with em even when they are rude and shallow wink

Ps:Riches are material and can be classified as physical beauty in this regard wink

: please don't give me D'Banj's version of Oliver twist by telling me you want both!tongue In this scenario you can only choose onewink

So ladies, between the Seals of this world and the Usher Raymonds? (Though we don't know them personally to determine who has inner "beauty"wink but we know Seal is fearfully made whilst Usher is wonderfully made and we also know Seal has stayed with one woman (Heidi Klum) much longer than Usher who has had multiple relationships.

Guys, eeerm, this is hard, Kim Kardashian and err.. I don't know any other apart from Mother theresa cheesy but you get the gist sha.

So, which would you choose, pretty or character?

xynerise: Everytime we dry our body with our towel, we remove dead cells from our skin. But a lot of people find it difficult to wash their towels. Some wash theirs every month while others washed theirs every 6months grin

How often do you wash yours?

I seriously doubt the authenticity of your conclusion! I mean do you wash your body with a towel? You only pat your body dry after washing off dirt, oil and dead cells from your skin with soap and sponge. Abi na water n towel u take dey scrub ya bodi? grin

To your question, I don't really have a scheduled time for washing my towel, I use a sparkling white towel and wash it once I sense it has begun to show potentials of turning cream.

ariseandshine:

I'll bookmark this space so WHEN the divorce papers start flying i'll come back to it.

shocked at the capitalised. Another silly assumption! Dude, I marvel at the depth of your ignorance! Do people still actually function effectively within a cultured, civil society with this kind of mindset? shocked, dude haven't you heard that assumption is the display of the lowest form of intelligence? Obviously not!
ariseandshine:

Some single women are still honourable and with their African motherly nature instilled in them (u can call them archaic if u want). But not all women go to drunken parties and get laid.

Another display of a thought process devoid of intelligence! So, you think all parties are DRUKEN PARTIES? (Whatever that means), have you heard of corporate events? Birthdays, anniversaries... How old are you? What do you do? Honestly I am baffled? shocked

If you had specifically stated that meeting a woman in a "drunken party" and proceeding to marry her will result in a "doomed" marriage, it would have sounded just a little bit better even though it would still portray a lack of intelligence because it is an assumption.

@op
I dont know of a happy marriage where the husband met the wife at a party..

You should have stopped typing after the above statement, rather than displaying your ignorance and typing this.


ariseandshine:

@op

There is no such marriage. It does not exist.

There are dashing, successful men who met their wives at a party and are enjoying happy marriages! Ask kanu Nwankwo and Joseph Yobo! At least they have been married for over five years.

With that mindset of yours, I can imagine how "happy" your marriage will be angry

nitrogen: ^^^ Spicy v, the 'temperament and love' doctor!

Lol, the subject of temperament is just one I happen to find intriguing wink
tomba: yeah, u're very correct. I seldom put efforts into things. Really I'm a fun loving person. I create fun esp wen I'm with someone I'm very free with. Compactible, yes we are, but the reserved nature and mood swings! We have that in common a lot.

tomba: Can't a mel/phleg date or get married to another mel/phleg? Cos I see me and my g/friend having d same, though in different percentages.

Well, as discussed in one of my threads, "marry for compatibility, not love", being compatible is crucial for a successful marriage. Compatibility is about living in harmony, being agreeable with your partner.

Since you and your lady will most often think alike, it could be said that you have compatibility but I wonder if you have spark in your relationship. I mean, there may be a lack of variety and a lot of boredom because both of you are laid back.

Finally, the essence of knowing and understanding temperaments is to improve on yourself and you can choose to steer your relationship in the direction you desire, will only require more effort because of your situation. But again, your phleg nature doesn't. Like to put effort into things right?
Politics / Why Do We Have To Tolerate Poor Service In Nigeria? by spicyv1(f): 11:57pm On Oct 05, 2013
You walk into a store/salon/boutique/banking hall e.t.c in Nigeria, with your legally/illegally earned money expecting to get value for your money( and that includes some good, quality, proactive service) and all you get is poor, disgusting attitude from an angry, obviously frustrated inefficient staff who gives you the "I am doing you a favor" attitude angry

Gosh! So annoying! I mean serving customers is your job! Why do I have to suck up to you and still pay you to give me value for my money? And why do we have to endure such crap in this country? angry
Romance / Re: Marry For Compatibility, Not Love!!! by spicyv1(f): 11:24pm On Oct 05, 2013
Really insightful points from everyone. My conclusion is:

True love is progressive: love grows and that growth is born out of compatibility; the more time we spend with someone who completes us the more we cherish them.

Finally, we choose to love, to stay in love smiley
Romance / Re: Temperament N Love. by spicyv1(f): 11:07pm On Oct 05, 2013
And your point sir? Could you maybe loose the hate n sarcasm?

Also, if you were not so enveloped in your "beef", you'd have deduced from corresponding posts that it has already being explained that there is always a blend of temperaments.
