Though the various parts of our body are complementary when engage in our various jobs, there are some parts that are more active on some jobs than others.

Some jobs may demand more walking, or looking, or sitting, or grabbing, or standing or tasting, or smelling... in that you may be queried if you are seen sitting on a job that requires more standing.

Excluding the brain that is a powerhouse for every parts of the human body, tell us your Job by telling us the part of your body that is invested on the job the most?

Apart from my brain, my job requires more of my Eyes. grin grin
My brain, 80%. The rest is mainly for my fingers and my mouth to communicate what my brain is analyzing, strategizing, proposing etc.

FROM MY INBOX.

Please He Needs Advice.
OP. Well done for your effort.

The first question I would like to ask before I answer is, is 50k enough for your monthly family upkeep?

Are you conscious of the rate of inflation since you started giving that 50k? First understand your wife (within reason) before trying to get her to understand you.

Get Her to draw up a budget then you guys should prioritize it.

Meanwhile, how is your sex life ? A lot of marital problems are either aggravated or calmed down depending on your level of sexual intimacy or other Iove language. You need to know, then learn to speak Her love language.

Best wishes.

[quote author=wwwihy post=111219249]So "Owo mi da" is dangerously existing over there ?

Soludo first mistake as Governor. He is putting the cart before the horse . He needs to find something for these guys to do first, but this is very difficult considering the nature of cash flows this type of touting brings... alternatively convert them to government revenue agents based on sharing formula or commission on their daily collections through once off payment issuance of daily cards patterned after what Oshiomhole did in Edo, then gradually phase them out .[/quote]Touting is a crime in virtually every clime, whether or not the tout has a worthwhile alternative to earn His dime. Putting the cart before the horse, is allowing crime to continue because there is no apparent and legit alternative.

The able bodied boys and men , selling stuff in traffic, laboring on construction sites or pushing wheel barrows in the market, might as well have become touts. But they chose not to.

I am not arguing about your use of the term, “Nationalisation”.

I am saying He doesn’t have much of a choice but to Nationalize, so it’s really nothing to be praising Him about.

The Russian Franchisees own up to 85% of the stakes in Russian Macdonald’s, they have more to lose if they don’t keep those shops running.

I have been predicting this in the past few weeks, the records are there.

It is what it is, Russians have been under the thumb of Putin for too long, there has been resentment. Many have been assassinated.

There is so much blood on His hands. That is why Putin is so paranoid, even before now. Russian people have been pushed to the very edge This war will be like the last straw that broke the camels back.

Please how long did you people date for before getting married?

Are you saying you married someone without having much knowledge about what he is into?
Even after years of dating and marriage, people still discover things about their spouses. Especially when people are evolving.

Politics › Re: Toyin Abraham, Other Celebrities Criticised For Accepting Award From Lagos State by TheGift:
This intolerant and entitled generation.
They want every one to take the same position
They lack an open minded orientation
Their definition of truth is based , not on facts but on their feelings and opinions
Anyone who doesn’t agree with them is wrong
Often Unbendable, Inflexible, opinionated & headstrong
They know not how to manage diversity
Or to act agreeably whenever they disagree
It’s either their way
or the highway
Just like their fathers and their father’s fathers before them
As well as their mothers and grand mothers who bore them
What more can I say?…
Ok…
Sometimes you have to run a little with someone heading the wrong way
In order to get their attention , to show the right way
If we continue to subject everything to cancel culture
There may be nothing left to cancel in the future
Romance › Re: A Submissive Spouse Or A Partner With Great IQ by TheGift: 6:30pm On Mar 18, 2022
Kobojunkie:
According to Bible, the idea of submission in marriage was born of a curse placed on marriage by God in Genesis 3 vs 16, and it is the very same curse that God then sent Jesus Christ to give men, and marriage Salvation from - John 3 vs 16 - 21 undecided

Jesus Christ came and decreed that those who belong to Him are instead equals and bow only to Him as Head/Master, Teacher, Shepherd, Authority over their lives. undecided

Now as for those in the world , submission and high IQ are mutually exclusive in the sense that anyone able to critically reason issues understands that the best relationships are ones grounded in partnership not rulership which is what submission is about. undecided
Hmmm… food for thought.

Streetbabah:
It's a dilemma choosing to marry between a spouse with good character and submissiveness who relies on you to make 80% of all decisions.... And a spouse with high IQ of great intellects whom u can discuss anything with be it business politics and so on with who is also a self starter... people's opinions are needed
Both. Just like my Woman. They are not mutually exclusive.

Meanwhile, before wives submit to your husband (Ephesians 5:22) , the Bible says Submit your selves one to another in (Ephesians 5:21) It further says , Husbands love your Wives. You can’t love Her if you can’t submit yourself to Gods Love and honoring the marriage institution

Submission is not only for women.

Thanks for the compliment, Sir.

As per requiring electricity, how about Get a small gen or a 1kva solar inverter to power the rechargeables. 4 hours of charging should be able to give you up to 8 hours.

Fuel can be bought , Solar power is free.

One thing that may help Him is if you tell Him that transforms is a deal breaker for you because you do not want to raise your children in that environment, you don’t want to be dealing with husband health issues. And you don’t want to become a young widow.

If He insists, tell Him you will only reconsider if He agrees to see a therapist.

And mean it.

May God guide you and heal Him. ��

You can see how an adult voter thinks.
An adult that has probably seen the ups and downs of the oil market.
An adult that has seen goverments come and go.
An adult that has seen global booms and busts.
An adult that is probably responsible to his children, family and community.

With all the knowledge of how the world works, what do you do as a man to meet your responsibilities in an uncertain world.... not to talk of being a leader.
Is it not TO PREPARE!!!!huh
But yours is not to demand that of the leaders you elect.
Yes, it is not Buhari's fault..... it is my fault.....

When he was serially warned about the exposure of the economy to shocks by reckless borrowing... what did folks like you say....
I am speaking specifically about the spike in prices in the last one week. This particular disruption is global. But if you still don’t get my point it’s ok.

This is how those two Mad Men deceived Nigerians. By the time buhari is done with Nigeria, una eyes go Clear!!
This has nothing to do with Buhari. Distortions in the Supply Chain is causing the diesel marketers to hike prices in anticipation of scarcity.

It’s the same thing that drove gas prices up about 300% in the US. Not everything Buhari.

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: My Incompetence Just Cost Me A Job, I Feel Worthless by TheGift: 4:35pm On Mar 15, 2022
Supremedrizzy:
Someone gave me a simple job of making an existing static site template responsive within 24 hours and I blew it. A simple task that should take few hours, it looked all good on my localhost only to test it on netlify and it turned out to be a disaster. I'm just so ashamed of myself.

I've been learning web dev since mid last year though its been a case of one month on three months off, I've been grossly inconsistent due circumstances beyond my control. I haven't even coded this year because I come back from my menial hustles with battered bones and weak muscles. You can imagine trying to code after offloading a trailer load of cement all day. I even had to use bet shops around for the gig amidst the pangs of hunger I felt while working coupled with the noisy and distracting environment I was working in which contributed to my legendary blunder.

At the age of 30 and unemployed I've always seen programming as my way out of poverty but it seems I'm not good enough. I'm painfully watching that little flicker of hope fizzle out before my tearful eyes. Which other skill can I dabble intohuh product design?? I suck at designs reason why my frontend skills is below average... should I try backend?? I'm just confused, frustrated and down casted not knowing the next step to take while time is no longer on my side.

Life currently has no meaning and direction to me, I just seem to be flowing aimlessly with the flow. My situation is giving me sleepless nights and I now rely on drugs to sleep for even three hours a day.

I really need someone to talk to, I'm really tired of trying to work out things on my own. I'm 30, broke, lonely and depressed, single has been a constant in my life's equation cos I don't even like myself for who I am presently so I don't expect someone's daughter to like me in this my miserable state.

Someone should please show me the way, this dark tunnel is fast turning to a maze that I can't navigate on my own.
Many have gone through similar and came out better on the other side. Your case does not have to be different.

First things first, you need to work on your mindset.

Move from dwelling on negativity and think of the positive possibilities

Move from complaining to being grateful. You can be grateful that you had this challenge at this stage rather than for a much bigger job.

Move from dwelling on the past it will only cause you to feel guilt and/or regret. Don’t think too far into the future, it will only cause you anxiety. Move to being in the present, focusing on now and the possibilities that can come from it, it will lead you closer to peace.

Stop second guessing yourself. Stop assuming what people may be thinking about you. Stop beating yourself up. You are special. You are not useless.

It’s a no-Brainer why you didn’t deliver. You were not adequately prepared. You bit off more than you can chew.

Three things ought to align if you must succeed at anything

1. Talent: You need to have the talent and necessary skill level for whatever job you take on and/or the talent to learn quickly.

2. Market: There needs to be a market and significant level of demand for your talent. Sometimes you can create the market demand for your talent (product, service or solution)

Passion: Are you into IT development because that is the trending career or because you actually have a passion for it? Passion is critical, because it is what will keep you going even when you face challenges whether technical or financial. It is what helps you learn perseverance , which is critical to succeed.

I wish you the very best in all your endeavors
