I'm a data analyst. Got a little weekly pay job from an academy in Europe. Surprisingly after 3months of work and weekly payment, My name was flagged by western union on suspicion of fraud (with my pay for February second week cancelled after many hours seating infront of the computer).

It's very appalling and morale draining to be profiled in one's own country. I really wish I could push for a law suit and make them understand not all Nigerians are criminals and seeing us/considering us as one will have consequences.

Has anyone had such terrible experience, how did you handle?

hansomb:
It should have been "please drop waste here, we need it for something" no one will drop it. Nigeria don't like obeying the law.

Hmmmm, my brother, I'm less problematic. The reason I let it go is because there's a time he was financially bouyant, he used to make me smile, sometimes carry me out to relaxation center, bills on him. I had looked for a way to repay him, then that happened, I left it as it's.

But I wouldn't lend him money again. For the fact that he didn't even talk about it again. I'm a law student, the money I gave him was to be added to buy a suit, till today, i don't have one because of him...

Elistho:
The one I can remember, this was last year July or August. My friend asked for 5K to add and pay school fees, I gave him my last card. I told him the money was relegated for my school bills too but I would give him as my friend and he should pay back, he vouched to.. I gave that benefit of doubt and transfered everything in my account to him.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is February, I've not seen it. I asked him once or twice in the past, he said he would pay, he's a close friend so I didn't disturb. Since I didn't ask again, he didn't talk about it again nor pay.

I've learnt my lessons, we're still friends and even visit each other now, but I've not mention it to him lest I severe the relationship.

I don't know if he has forgotten or deliberately doesn't want to pay, but either ways, no qualms, God dey.

Anyone who is observant enough would see first hand the havoc these styrofoam packs cause to our drainages...but they don't just develop legs and walk to these drains, they're used and disposed by people. And until we develop a comprehensive waste management approach to deal with stuff like these, you can ban styrofoam today and something else will just take its place tomorrow.

Plastics are recyclable but styrofoams are not!

The styrofoam take away packs will be replaced with plastic ones. I guess people generally goes for styrofoam packs before now because they are cheaper.

Same issues are also posed by plastics used to package soft drinks, are we going to ban those too??

AbbeyMogaji:
A debate on parenting came in a public discussion, those who were involved in the discussion were strictly parents. It is intriguing how 80% of the participants agreed to a fact that raising a well-behaved child takes only the grace of God and a bit of lucky. I interrupted, “Luck ke? There are several models and strategies from which you can choose the one that suit the peculiarity of your child”. These parents resisted my opinion vehemently. Though it is popular among parents, this notion is far from the truth. As a matter of fact, few things can be more dangerous than relying on lucky to achieve anything in life.

What is your take?

My dad's driver son is right here in our house and he's the first child of his dad, he's totally different from the rest, he doesn't look like his dad neither does he look like his mum, there's no resemblance from both parents at all.

I stylishly dig up stories of how his mum was married because he's been driving my dad even before I was born and I was told she was already pregnant before the marriage ceremony was held and as at that time of their wedding, the woman lived in a different state, she just came and told him she was pregnant and that was how marriage happened .

I have watched this boy from head to toe so I can see at least one feature in resemblance but I didn't see anything, not even from the mom, he's just totally different. The other kids are ok, two share a striking resemblance with their dad while the last took after her mom but with some of the dad features, so are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Should I tell my dad my observation? What do you think?

I really want to thank you all who take his/her time to pray/encourage me to ensure the Aboki is found, but the good news is that he has been found.

Thank you all.

There's no two ways that unemployment is responsible for most of the crimes committed by young ones. I was there and I know it.

I used to do pilfering/petty theft to help myself. Even on this forum, I used to beg or try to swindle people to get any little financial favour just to survive because I didn't have a job.

Could you believe since I got a job (to God be the glory), none of such thought ever crossed my mind again?

With this, I wante to say every bad person out there deserve another chance with a job.

I have changed.

I recently applied to work in an organisation.

After passing the interview and checks, the management was impressed and decided to hire and give me a major role in the company.

When i asked about the payment for my position, they threw me a popular question;
HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK WE SHOULD PAY YOU?

I gave them a figure in mind, a little above what i got in my former job. Their facial expression was 'WoW'.

I started work on tuesday and after making friends and chating the secretary, i found out that i earn twice less than the staffs in the company in the same position.

Infact, i earn a little more than the gateman and cleaner. The secretary even earns more.

Its my fault, should have done some checks on the strength and salary structure of the firm before applying.

I feel discouraged. With this information, i won't be able fuction properly. Plus this secretary with her loud mouth will spread the news in the company, making me feel worst.

Anyone with this experience? Please console me.
