BTW, it was very stupid to denounce his Nigerian citizenship.

Things can Change and you may need it badly.

He may not have done it by choice.

If South Africa requires that you don't hold dual nationality, then you have to renounce one to get another.

atilla:
Contract staff or contractor.

Contract staff no I wouldn't
Contractor for a job worth millions. Yes I would.

This is the right question to ask the OP.
As a contractor, you should be paid much more and the contract period should be stated.

Was denied a US visa 2009 and German visa 2011. Later got a UK visa in 2012 and moved to the UK where I’ve now naturalised. Both denials were demoralising and left me frustrated as I had high hopes during the application process. With my British passport I don’t need a visa to travel to both countries and can’t even live in them. I feel like Britain suits me and my goals better than anywhere else in the world.

Its not an automatic Visa to the US. You need to apply for an ESTA online for a 2-year permission to visit the US and in the form, you will need to declare the US refusal. That would mean that your application would never be auto approved like for most British Citizens and it will revert to manual review by a CBP officer for approval.

Bloody liar...you can't trademark a name that was in existence even before you were born!

Except of course the person approving the trademark disregarded the existence of the name. Anything can happen if it was patented in Nigeria

Interesting! But why so since the message itself sent by me had correct date and time setting?

It was just an IT glitch. At that time, the system could not retrieve the correct date and resorted to showing its configured default date.

Each date or information is stored in a field in something like a table (actually called Relation in Database terminology). The system goes to each field to retrieve data in order to show you information and if that actions fails on a date field for any reason, then the system is programmed to fall back to default date which is 1st Jan 1970.

I'm not a Doctor, but I believe it's called Sleep apnea. The Nightmares your having are a result of your difficulty breathing so your brain starts trying to wake you up.

Its likely the case.

ChilledPill:
Please I just want to know if what I am passing has any spiritual undertone or if it is a medical problem, and is there anybody that you know who has or had a problem like mine?

I always snore every night in my sleep I mean a heavy snore that someone outside the building can clearly hear me snoring and this always lasted to 30mins anytime I retire to sleep.

The second is that I always have a terrible night filled with horror and scaring nightmares in my dream from Sunday night to Monday morning every week, horror scenes and scary, walking in a lonely and dark places in my sleep, running with someone chasing me and sometimes I will fall and then I will wake up, feeling of fatigue when I wake.

PS: I don't watch horror movies.

I have never believed in spiritual life but now I am having doubts that someone may be after my life and attacking me spiriually.

I have prayed to the extent I am having doubts in mind that there is no God that answers prayer

Since you snore badly, it means you don't get a good sleep hence the bad dreams.

Its likely medical. Soft tissues in throat blocking airways, inflamed tonsils, blocked nose or perhaps deviated septum, etc causing you to snore badly. It is not good and means your sleep quality at night is very poor. You think you have slept for 7 hours whereas its really only 2 hours or less of proper sleep. Basically Sleep Apnea and causing tiredness/sleepiness during the day. I am not a doctor oh!

During the stay at home period coupled with ASUU strike, i hardly studied like I did at sch. In fact, I've gone several weeks then without opening my books aside reading novels online.

Now we're back to sch, and each time I read, assimilation is always so tasking that is now becoming frustrating for me. Exam is just around the corner, and for someone aiming to perform excellently, this shouldn't be happening

Think of Carry Over
Think of Extra Year
Think of big salary when you start to work

.........and you will be motivated!

That is the default date and time in most IT applications if there is no date set. I have seen it a lot on my application projects.

Google 1 jan 1970 and see the results.

Did you notice anything? Delivered 1st January 1970. Don't tell it's my phone setting because the time of sending was correct ie 14th February 2021. Na wa for the GSM companies oh.

I like chrome and tend to use it more.

Focusmind:


Nawao! But even shell and other oil companies do not pay same across countries. People in Aberdeen receives something different from Nigeria. A guy that was once in Norway, working for Statoil Hydro of Norway put in transfer to come to Nigeria. His pay in Nigeria is still good but lower than the pay in Norway. So, countries peculiarities are also considered in staff emoluments for multinationals.

Someone is also with Reckitt benkiser in Nigeria but when he went to Greece on transfer, his pay in Greece was higher than in Nigeria.

Certainly. Country peculiarities need to be taken into account. Fuel in the UK is between £1.10 to £1.40 per litre which is minimum over N700 per litre, so you can't expect UK salaries to be equivalent to Nigeria.

So myopic reasoning Instead of banning them from driving cars inside the school, the management should utilize the opportunity and build a car park, place security there and collect parking fee of #100 or #200 thereby creating revenue for the institution.

It doesn't always have to be about money. Their reason for banning is not financial and so I don't see why the solution is financial

Kieel:
Tell the sender to Use world remit
You receive the money(in local currency) into your bank account instantly

That's not correct. World remit pays out in Dollars to a dollar account and for only about 6 or 7 banks. I used them today and the money was transferred in under 5 minutes with no hidden deduction unlike Azimo.

When will so many nigerians understand that fez caps are not baseball caps.

A fez cap is illustrated below

I think they meant to say "Face cap" as commonly called in Nigeria and this terminology is not used in other countries. It does refer to baseball caps or men's cap.

That looks like its Kingsway stores in the 1976 picture

JohnCloud:
I think it is very wrong to claim that one is much more difficult than the other.
The difficulty of each depends on the project. There are some projects that embed majority of the business logic on the frontend, and there are also some projects that embed most of the business logic in the backend.

Also, don’t forget that there are some project that the backend has to service not just the frontend, but also the mobile APPs and maintain the APIs.

However, the pay depends on the skill set, your project and the importance of your role in the project.

E.g if I am building a product that needs to do lots of complex logic and data manipulation which just requires rendering on the front end, the backend would definitely be paid more.

On the other hand, if the majority of the logic is handled by the frontend, then the frontend would be paid more.

Anyone that outrightly states that one is better than the other either has no experience doing both on different projects or is too biased towards to understand that the dynamics of the difficulty can change.

You are correct. That is why I mentioned that I demand that more of the business logic is done on the back end on my projects. You can't avoid putting some business logic on the front end in some cases.

CSTRR:

I know back end devs that think front-end is harder.
It is not easy to design beauty. It takes a special kind of talent.

Back-end is like maths. Anybody can solve maths.
Front-end is like architecture.
Architecture uses both sides of the brain. Architecture is harder.

Certainly Front End is not easy and have to deal with users or clients and their expectations.
There is a lot of iteration to get the front end right and acceptable to users, so definitely not easy and no one should attempt to belittle the work that FE Developers do.

trigar12:


This example or description is wrong.

A better example is:

A front developer is the event planner that will arrange an event center. Arrange chairs cleans them and make sure everything is order

While

Back end are caterers that dish out foods to people that will attend the event.

If a front end developer is so good and knows his onions, he will earn more than a backend developer.

No cap

This your example get as e be
certainly not a good example. More like the Back end developers cook the food and the front end developers dish it our in a presentable way.

chingle5:


Which one is backend capturing the entire business logic...... In fact that your example is actually the reverse u backend developers are actually the shoe shiner and we the frontend developers are the shoemaker coz we create the product while u people just come from nowhere to just come and be updating one yeye database and throwing request from one place to another place base on CRUD in fact u guys are the shoe shiner

Most times, the back end developers are requested to implement the business logic based on data coming from a database or from another connected system via an API and then the front end will call that data. I usually demand developers not to put too much business logic on the front end so that the pages can load faster.

Ijidolaagency:


Somebody's two months salary

Some people's one hour salary

It means you sleep with your mouth open (mouth breather) and there is a high likelihood that you snore heavily. The throat is blocked and the only way to breathe is to keep the mouth open and then saliva comes out. Mouth is always dry because it is open and then you feel thirsty and drink water at night.

erico2k2:
so OP you basically went to live in a Hotel, this is so wrong of a time to go for a holiday, why would I wanna be stuck inside a Hotel after paying so much money well unless it's not my money and Im stuck in the other room. Im trying to make sense of it all!

She hasn't said that she went on holiday. She said she is staying there for 4 years.

Can you guarantee that his work laptop would have been safe if he had decided not to play ball?
When he loses the laptop and eventually returns to the Netherlands and tells his employers that he lost his laptop in Nigeria and tells them the circumstances, do you know what impression that would have for our country? Such situations are why some overseas employers would not hire Nigerians as they would not know what to expect and you will be wondering why your job applications are getting rejected.

Deicide:
Watin you day use 2 laptop do?

There is nothing wrong with having 2 Laptops. I went to Dubai for holiday in December and had to carry my work and personal laptops, simply because I could be asked to quarantine for any reason or flights may be cancelled and I will be stuck there and not able to return to doing work in January. With my work laptop, I can work from any location I find myself, just like I have been working from home since March last year and not stepped into the office for one day since. I had planned to come to Nigeria for holiday in December but cancelled my trip due to all our Corona Virus quarantine and testing rules and I had also planned to take both laptops with me if I were coming.

People forget that you have things like Ancestry.com and 23andMe where many people carry out DNA tests for themselves and it reveals relatives who have also done the tests and agreed for their data to be linked to relatives. Its becoming very popular and many people have discovered things about themselves. Its only a matter of time before it becomes popular in Nigeria and the truth starts coming out. Go on Youtube and see what people have discovered about themselves..
