GraGra247: Let me tell you what my hubby did when he wanted a friend to move out when hubby was still single. One day after his friend went out,he packed all his friends" property into big bags and went to drop them at the friend"s family house. After dropping it,he sent a text to friend telling him where to find his things as they were no longer in his house. That was it o.No fight,no discussion,no arguement.

WIZGUY69: Where most nigerians that i have met live(even those of us that have been here less than a year) is the kind of house people that "have arrived" live in Nigeria.I pray we start helping ourselves back home. Cars,good food,quality education,excellent medical service,efficient emergency response,going on vacations etc are not exclusive to the rich and mighty 21 Likes 2 Shares |

On culture shocks- Calling everyone by name did not come so much as a surprise because i worked in an industry that encouraged that in Nigeria. What however shocked me is how people here feel so comfortable with a habit like smoking.Almost everyone in my office smokes and they do not seem to think anything is bad with it.People call their ogas to go with them outside for smokes.Man o,woman o,team leader o,manager o,new recruit o,everybody go gather smoke the smoke . Unlike back home where smoking is seen as a vice for miscreants and irresponsible people,here the most intelligent and brightest people smoke and its not a sign of bad character or a character flaw.Makes me wonder whether we have priorities misplaced at home. Another thing here is its normal for colleagues to invite you out for drinks(you pay for yourself of course).Fridays,weekends,start of training,end of training,promotion,etc etc, na drinks bar e dey end. My friend who i met here told me its not a bad idea to go along with them once in a while and i think so too.I went once and it was fun!!!.I do not smoke or drink but i had plenty fun all the same. Another thing too is they like to talk a loooooot.MY gawd!!!!! How are you is met with a lenghty response of how last night went,what happened on the train,what happened outside the office so so so. How was your weekend nko?Looong story too . At first it was strange for me because when they say "ty how are you",im like "fine" and they have this look of "is that all?",some will even be like "just fine?"" why just fine ?" and in my mind im like "what else again ooo?". But now me too don dey cram stories give them make i no carry last. We have team huddles everyday and on random days my team lead is like everyone must give an interesting fact about themselves or just tell us something interesting that has happened to you today and you must respond o.The mata dey just tire me sometimes. My elder kid too has caught the talking bug.This is someone that could barely sting 2 sentences before we left Lagos 7months ago but now,he gets disciplined (sent to bed) for talking too much.When he wakes up,i ask "do you still want to talk or you go back to bed ?". The boy will keep quite o. For 15MINS and start again. Lots of interesting experiences.Will share more later 76 Likes 3 Shares |

suurutu: My kids are below five and they settled in very well. Use careforkids.com.au to find daycare centers around your neighborhood. For kids above 5,I'm not aware if a comparison site exists for schools. My first kid will be 5 in dec and the school I'm choosing is based on word of mouth. Public schools are free and around where I live,private schools charge from 5k upwards. 2 Likes |

Teejah80: I'm not an authority on 489 but I know you are not entitled to any centrelink benefits just yet.New sessions begin Jan ending/Feb. Since you're going to Queensland,try to read up and find out if the state has certain benefits for 489 holders,in case you don't get the response you're looking for. For health insurance,use iselect.com.au to compare prices(go for the one that provides ambulance cover). 1 Like |

edoman2016: This is my opinion but you can look at around $24 -$26 per hour starting.It can be way more than that though or just a little less. Your expenditure will depend on how you live. 6 Likes 1 Share |
