I dey shake for body ooo, e b like say make I cry. Na men put this kind women for house o. OMG!

See the kind of response from supposed women that will become MIL.

This is why I am very picky when it comes to women. Your body language and the kind of words that comes out of your mouth are my lab test.

You and freecocoa no dey ever disappoint! May God bless your home and your mothers.

Oh God! Our society is finished oooooooo

Guy relax. There are some things you need to understand as a man. First, the way, tone and manner by which you present the case in the first place (i.e. ur original post) is sentimental. You have painted yourself and the family bad right from the beginning of your post. For you to have been mentioning things your cousin did for his wife-to-be (like the phone he bought for her, taking her to SA, getting her a car etc) sounds childish on your part. I must confess, the part of your post which says you've sent many ladies out of your life doesn't sound so good as well, especially taking cognizance of the fact that you are planning to send this lady out of your cousin's life too, despite having a child for him already.

Mind you, I am not supporting the said lady in any way, as (in my own opinion) nothing can justify why she can't be nice to her husband's family. She needs to be corrected on that. However, as a man you are, especially as an outsider when considering the union of your cousin and his wife (because it's now their family issue), you don't have to meddle so much in the affair. Truth be told, you know too much already which is not suppose to be. That the lady is bad, not a house material and the decision to leave is neither your responsibility nor your aunt's. Let the husband decides that.

I understand what you are pointing out here, but you need to know your boundary. Also, remember that the lady is from another family bring up. Mind you, what makes sense and acceptable in your family might not really be issue of relevance in other families even if both are same tribe. Just imagine if situations and conditions warrants that the lady in question travel out of the country, or if she works with the government in another state, will the family ask her to relocate or resign from her job to take care of your aunt? At least other means will be employed to ensure that your aunt gets what you wanted for her. I am not saying your sister in law shouldn't be corrected but you shouldn't have a hand in destroying the home of your cousin. There is no human being that is perfect, not even you or myself. What if you succeed in chasing this present one out and your cousin marry another lady taking care of the family but ruining your cousin in some other way. Remember that the marriage is theirs and not yours.

Conclusively, please leave the family (husband and wife) alone, and let them decide what's good for them. Wait till her husband starts complaining about her attitudes before you say she's not a house material. Your cousin might be so pleased with her for some reasons best known to him. Thank you so much as you heed my word. Remain blessed.

Morning, I want to start submitting my CV today in some schools around my Ppa, I don't know d name and address of all this schools, so do I need to attach an application letter to my CV because I don't know dere name and more so pls wic type of envelope can I use to package my CV for submission. Am Corp member am finishing service next month pls ur advice re is needed and pls if dere is any mistakes in my CV I upload pls signify room, thanks waiting for reply..

Good morning. I think it's better you write and attach an application letter to each of the CV you'll be submitting. By the time you get close to each school, where the name and address of the school is visible, you can insert it on the letter as appropriate.

Regarding the type of envelope to package the documents, I think an envelope of the size of the A4 paper is okay, so that you won't need to fold the documents. However, I will suggest you go around with a bag (like laptop bag) since you might need to reach a number of schools, and I think it's not wise enough for each school you reach to observe that you are with almost 7 to 10 envelopes (or as the case may be) with. It may not really affect whether you'll be invited or not, but I just don't think it's okay. So, find a means of keeping other envelopes away at each location. Remember to insert the school name and address on each application letter before you submit.

If possible, try not to drop your documents at the gate with the gateman or security. Ask for the Admin Office, Secretary Office, The Principal's Office or as the case may be DEPENDING ON THE SIZE OF THE SCHOOL. If questioned at the gate of a big school for instance, you can just say you want to make enquiry about requirements for enrolling a child in the school. This should get you access and pass through a stubborn gateman in 'big schools'.

This is just the few things I can tell you based on my personal opinion. Let the bigger bosses here help you with tips based on experience.

PrimeMinisterr:
aren't you being stupid for making such ridiculous n derogatory comment?

Bro, I like ur response but you should know better than anyone that you dont av to reply every comment especially on nairaland. This is because there are lots of immature minds here that will be commenting as well. Those that are not up to the age of ur first child. At times, you see some comments and u wonder if the person is even up to 10 years of age...but by their comments, you shall know them.

Freemanan:
Hmmm.. You look it

Your comment forced me to go check the lady's profile pix... u are correct! "SHE look it" true true

2Str8:
Errmm. Its gud this is up. My current place of work has asked me not to use this format no more. They gave me a sample with a whole lots of contents-they said its the latest approved lesson plan here in Abuja.

Thanks bro, waiting for u to post the latest approved lesson plan here for members get updated. Thanks

Ishilove:
Dinachi, this is apalling! What is it about the lady's post warrants this kind of vitriol?

u just yarn my mind o. i had to read the quotes all together to really verify what wrong the lady has done to warrant such response. Maybe it's wrong quoting or something because there is no correlation at all.

Omo! see numbers on rampage. Cool down dudes, the news will be everywhere when the recruitment starts. Posting your digits on a social network where Tom Dick and Harry visit is vulnerable to your privacy.
No insult intended.

I wonder o. See numbers

ravensckar:
It all started on this great forum sometime around March(if my memory hasn't failed me), I advertised the position of a physics home tutor around isolo area. A lotta people applied, but there was this guy (name's withheld) who applied as well. On the basis of first come first serve, I gave the job to another person (but not him).


Afterwards, we became friends. With the promise that whenever another vacancy forth comes, I'll inform him. As promised, I did introduce him to other job vacancies I've been seeing @ that particular time. Even, I directed him to some of the home tutoring agencies where I previously work for placement. He kept telling me that he was destined for bigger things...

Unknown to me, he was carefully designing a plan on how to reap me of my hard-earned money. Sometimes, he comes to me to borrow tokens like 3K,4K, etc in the name using it as transport to look for job. Some, he returned, others, I leave for him.


Then, around the beginning of June, I drew his attention to the vacant post of a principal in festac area. I advised him to apply, since he told me he has worked as a principal before. Hence, he is qualified for the job. To cut the long story short, some weeks later, he told me he had been shortlisted. Later, he told me he had been appointed. See happiness now! From unemployment level to principal post.


A few days afterwards, I received a distress call from him, that his appointment may be cancelled if he doesn't fulfill some obligations. i.e. The school's dress code costs a total of #37500, He's also expected to collect one 'Notary public affidavit' abi na form self from High court. To cut the long story short, he requested (like someone whose life depended on it) that I borrow him the sum of #50000 which I did. Afterwards, the real scam of another #52500 was perpetually set in motion. That's a story for another day anyways.


In summary, I parted with over a 100,000 within the space of two weeks. The whole process of how it happened is a long story to write. But the summary is what I've typed up there.


The moment I realised I was being scammed, the Sherlock_Holmes part of me was activated. I tracked him to the level he didn't expect. As I type this, his lawyer and my Navy officers have perfected an arrangement of how he'll refund my money. The first installment of 20K has been paid, the rest will follow at the agreed time.


Now, to have come here to say all that 'Laureate gibberish' was as a reaction to my previous post of indirectly warning him here. Shey I told you people then that he's also a forumite but I don't know his monicker (Just like every other colleague of mine in my present place of work). And just as Isaac Newton has stated 'To every action, there's always an equal an opposite reaction'.
Unfortunately, he thought I was going to defame him, and so he took the first initiative. But funny enough, his own way of defamation is petty, intangible, and wouldn't hold water for lack of evidence.


For every single thing I've typed, I have both audio evidence and other documents to validate my claims. The moral of my story are as follows;
1- Whenever we meet people online, we should be careful of our relationship with them. Cos who many people claim they are online ain't what they really are.
2- Whenever we're doing financial transactions with people (be it friends or relatives) we should endeavour to keep evidences. These, we can put into good use should things go sour.
3- As much as I have a good heart, I've learnt that 'Expecting people not to do bad to you because you don't do bad to others is as foolish as thinking a lion shouldn't eat you because you don't eat lion'.
4- A reputation is what will speak of somebody even when the person is not there. See how those who know me have already defended me even before I open my mouth to defend myself.


Note, my background check even revealed what the Principal of Laureates College said behind my back. In his own words, he told a parent who protested my sack that 'Mr Ajibola is my friend, he's one of the best teachers I've ever had, but things just turned out the way it turned....'
So, how can the same management be behind this campaign of calumny? What point do they stand to prove? Even I have moved on....


P.S; Mods, please don't hide this post of mine so that everyone can know the truth. I may not be chanced to type something as lengthy as this again. And to that scammer, I've nothing personal against you, I need just my money...

O yà shakiti bobo...(dancing)

enolife:
Today and am preparing to go there now. but don't know the direction from computer village to the said address. please help if known the direction.
Thank you

Call the number attached to the sms sent to you for direction. Also, just be calm and try ur best. It's a normal kind of interview questions like...can we meet u, wat are ur strengths, why shld we hire you etc. It's nothing too serious. We cldnt agree over remuneration then, that's why I refused the offer, although it was a graduate trainee vacancy then. They are good and knowledgeable set of people and are into consulting. I would have love to work with them then as am gonna gain a lot from their operations but my location is far, thus high transportation cost, and the salary cant really get me thru. Wish you best of luck

enolife:
please do attend the interview, are they real. I just receive my own invitation today.

Yea, I was there. They are real, and to calm ur nerves, they are not gnld. When is ur interview holding?

Part B-Talking about basic Job Skill

No matter what job you are going for – a head teacher, a shop assistant or a
magazine editor – employers are looking for some fundamental skills. Being able to
demonstrate that you are reliable, organised and able to work under pressure –
amongst other skills – are such prerequisites for any job that you must be ready to
answer these questions

Thumb up man! You are doing a great and wonderful job here, well done.

tosinmania:
Thre is. www.jobs.lagosstate

Obrigardo:
It's not too serious like that cartoon. Most schools collect school fees even into the middle of the term. I guess you don't have a kid, so you don't know.

Sir, it's not most schools o. Probably, you are referring to "Kereje" Group of Schools, not the resume-with-your-teller type of schools. Maybe that's the picture the OP was showcasing with the cartoon.

rezzy:
Funny place to work, I swear !

In my last place of work, we do fasting every first Monday of the month nd break by 12.

During prayer time, madam will be in her office doing nothing. The day I saw her was the day I stopped fasting.

Just imagine! So, to fast now na by force abi? On top wetin? Even if the fasting is just for 30minutes, I see no reason why it should be imposed on me all because I'm working for you. To me, it's ridiculous. Anyway, the issue of fasting is still better than the vigil, after all, it's till 12pm. If I don't intend to fast, I would have loaded my "belle" with strong eba and egusi soup that morning right from my home, then join other staffs in the "fasting" when I get to work. Lobatan! Ko ju be lo.

masties2:
Na wa o. What wouldn't we see? Mandatory night vigil in a school!

My dear sister, I wouldn't have believe it myself if I was told by someone else. To be candid, there are some ridiculous conditions that are need to be met by the applicants before they can be employed. Very ridiculous...There is a Yoruba adage that says, nibi ti eyan ba rin de, ibe lo ma ri mo. You go hear some conditions, you no go know aw to reply, u go just open mouth.

Na real exercise true true, very rigorous one for that matter

Southboy:
Thanks for your input. Had it been you read my next post you would have seen where i said i was asked which denomination. Thanks all the same

You are welcome

Funpeter:
Well lets hope that's not the reason they will not employ him.... And lesson learnt always give the necessary answer. Are you a Christian? Is different from which denomination do you attend? wish you all the very best bro and did you discuss the salary?

Exactly what I have in mind. Are you a Christian should have been simply answered with, "Yes, I am a Christian" till it is absolutely necessary to state further. As a matter of fact, some issues (like religion, politics, your state or town, and other closely related issues) are not really good or relevant things to be discussed in an interview, especially on the part of the interviewee EXCEPT you are sure that it's gonna work in your favour. If not, why giving unnecessary details about it.

I could remember some years back when I was asked in an interview, "Are you a Christian?". I simply answered, "Yes". The man went further and asked, "Are you a Christian to the CORE?" I just smiled and replied him that I don't know what level of Christianity or denomination his "...to the core" means, and that he should just go ahead and tell me what my faith (religion) or it's deepness has to do with the job role I'm being interviewed for.

It's then he smiled and said it's mandatory for every staff of the school to attend a vigil in the school on every last Friday of the month, the penultimate Friday to vacation, as well as the last Friday to any resumption date after holidays. For few seconds, I remained mute because I don't even know what to say. I just looked right into his eyes and said to him, "Sir, I am a Christian to the core but I refuse to be part of that mandatory vigil meant for all the staffs simply because it is mandatory and not voluntary. Even a place of worship won't make vigil compulsory to it's congregation, let alone a place of work. Although, if the mandatory worship is to take place during the day time, I might give it a consideration, but at nights, it's a NO sir."

After this response of mine, he said it has been the practise in the school all along and that it is always reveal to the applicants before being finally employed, and that without accepting that condition, it's not possible to work there. Immediately he said this, I just stretch my hand for handshake and said, "I guess we've come to the end of the interview, thank you for your time."

This is to inform thread member about the outburst by talk2yommex2000's friend about Manie's school.


We have painstakingly investigated the matter because We heard from talk2yommex2000 via mail and Maine via this thread and here is "our" findings:

1. Both parties gave a detailed description about what really transpired, which tallied;
2. Based on investigation, the principal colonised everything in the school, painted the former Chairman (Baba) in bad light;
3. There was some illegality going on which Baba knew nothing about;
4. He turned the school into a mini empire of some sort, conspired, instigated teachers' against themselves and Baba;
5. Teacher that taught from 2012 down would not say good things about the school as a result of the Principal ineptitude, instigation, greed and diabolical means which I don't want to believe he(principal) used such means;
6. As a result of financial misappropriation by the Principal, the school was plunged into debt which the new Chairman has cleared;
7. Nobody would fold their arm and see someone or anybody throw heart hurting jabbs at their father and sit down and do nothing.

In the view of the above findings and the verdict from the Senate and WhatsApp Teachers' Association (WAT), Manie a former Vice Principal of the "family" with 8yrs, a business man, financial analyst and an investment guru is hereby discharged of all accusations level against him and his school.

Signed
WAT.

That's great. I'm happy that you guys really responded to the mail, and investigate the issues as promised. Kudos to you guys and well done. One Love

A very and interesting thread. Very insightful and educating. Kudos to you bro. Hope this (thread) has landed on the promise land (front page)?

Mods shld do d needful.

Congratulations Bro., more of goodies to come by God's grace. Enjoy!

coolhamid:
Gate crashing is allowed, you may get the job by gate crashing. Who knows ?

Let's assume you can teach geography, when you get to venue of the interview, you would be asked of the subject you applied for(that is if they don't have the list of applicants ), tell them the subject you know u can teach...
Questions relating to such Subject would be set as interview questions..

As regards to salary structure, bro I don't know it becoz I stay far from ikorodu.

Thanks bro., thanks a lot.

Please house, is anyone having information about Goodwill International School, Ikorodu. A younger brother of mine learnt through his friend who applied there recently that a written test/interview is to take place there on Saturday (tomorrow). My questions are as follows:

1. Is gate-crashing possible?
2. What is their pay range (i.e. salary structure)
3. What to prepare for (i.e. likely questions and format for both test and interview)
