Read business admin. Worked my whole life in Nigeria as a marketing exec, now I'm a construction engineer/badass which ties in to my adaptive skill. Right now i'm thinking about becoming a programmer. SQL in particular. See...I'll fit in anywhere.

Hmm.. . From biz admin to construction engineer ? Good. Can you learn SQL by yourself ?

[color=deeppink]People tell me I'm pretty/beautiful but the thing is I think completely the opposite of myself. . .even my uncles, aunts and strangers, I mean random people say the same thing but I think completely the opposite of myself?

What do you all think could be the cause of this?[/color]

You've always been right and they are wrong. Dont let anyone deceive you.

Adaptive, interpersonal and analytical skills.

Yeah, those are soft skills and they are very vital but do you have any technical skills in addition to it or professional certification?
And also what was your job description in those organisations ? Or what department did you work in? Your in put is needed.

Op what you say is the truth. Teaching in all these small mushrooms school has no future at all.
I remember when I finished service, I decided to getva job no matter how small. I read maths and I'm generally good in science. One day I was taking a walk when I saw a post that said a maths teacher needed.
The next day I decided to apply. At first I knew the school wouldn't be so good in terms of infrastructure. But when I saw the school, I was very disappointed. It was much worse than I imagined. The structure was dilapidated with zinc roof and wooden bench . I just smiled. It was so pathetic. I met the man who was to interview me. I looked at the man and I looked at myself. What I wore was far better than his clothes. I though is this man going to be my boss

So he introduced himself and I handed him my Cv. He gave me some maths questions to solve. I finished it and gave him my script. He asked me to wait while he gives another maths teacher to mark. I said ok. While waiting, he took me to the secondary site of the school (oh did I tell you they had both primary and secondary school?). He analysed how I taught the students.

After concluding the teaching, we went to the admin office. (In fact to describe the office na anothet thing). He told me that since I read maths, I should have some knowledge in futher maths and physics. I come look am one kind. He said I will take ss1 to ss3 maths, futher maths and physics. As if that was not enough, he added jss 3 maths to it. So he gave me the text books. I say . I said it's too much. He told me that the engineer graduate that was with them did I am about to do and even added Intro tech and chemistry. But because I read science, he has decided to give me fewer subjects.

He asked me how much I want as salary. I manage talk 50k. Him look me like say, I dey greedy. Na him he come tell me say make I look the school building. He come talk say, "do we look like people that can pay that amount?" I weak. After every every, he come talk say na 12k he go give me. Not sure whether it was 12 or 9.
In fact the next day I look for how to return their book. In fact ehn, I get another experience .

Humorous..

True story; While in Nigeria, I did not attend university and I did not even do a Hnd programme. I did what you would call a Higher Diploma programme. This means that after graduation you will not be allowed to serve in the NYSC programme. Now, this is the strange part of the story. I have worked in two multinational companies (BAT inclusive), two quality home based firms and also set up my own company. All in Nigeria at the time. Guess what a lot of my friends who went to universities were doing while i was changing jobs? they were searching for jobs. They used to ask me how I was doing it? I was changing jobs like someone does boxer shorts. I tried explaining to them my schooling started way back when I was like 3 years old. I had a degree in sesame street, comic bookology, cartoons, movies (not nollywood thank God, that shiit dulls your brain) etc. Basically my mentality was different from childhood. my first Nigerian boss wanted someone who could mix with big dogs and converse with expatriates and big wigs; ever had a conversation with an average Nigerian? believe me, it's very tasking and exasperating, as evidenced from posts on NL. My friends just couldn't understand that it takes more than book knowledge to be successful in life. The Nigerian youth needs to learn and understand this concept. Employers need adaptability and a refined thought process more than they need your book answers/knowledge.

Cool.... . So what skills did you acquire ?

ShutdownBrown24:
Good one bro! See! I'm a certified public administrator, but sometimes I do imagine how will I live upto my expectations in life, will I serve the government for 35yrs & earn a penny of 10 - 20 million Naira as pension, when my mate are buying house in banana island for 600million, travelling around the world & driving lattest cars. No! I can't be a paid slave.


Before my career education I enrolled my self in a skill acquisition, that will enable me live up to my expectations. Now I used my skill acquired to buy my self anything I want in life, though this is just a tip of an eyes Berg.



Skill is very good bro.

So what sort of skill have you acquired ?

GahtU:
yes I live in Uyo n he stays in Akure n its going to work whether u like it or not. My parent lived apart for d first 16yrs of deir marriage, now dey r living together happily n till death. So OP its abt wat we want n our determination. So u can go n knock off ur head or neck in fact hit something BT if u think coming here to get supporters to destroy wat we av build is going to make us crack, den I can c how frustrated u r. Mind ur damn biz cos its enough trouble for u. Mtcheew....

Your parents case might be a few exceptions but don't blame the OP. What he's saying is factual. This is something that happens everyday. The temptation is very high for both couple when they are far from each other.

Well, I don't know why he decided to quit but I don't think Oliseh has anything to do with it. Emenike has tried his best. Problem is that he's not in form as he used to be.

It's not fair for u guys to start yabbing him.

The SSA to the President should have been fired a long time ago. His lack of etiquette in carrying out his duties, is shambolic and shameless. This fool, gave an interview where he shamelessly tried to deny the promises made by his party, by distancing the President from the party, like if the President won the election on an independent ticket. Later on, when the President went to Ghana, for a state visit, instead of selling our country, to Ghanaians, the fool was selling Ghana to Nigerians on his twitter page. Even when the Boko Haram sect bombed ABUJA, this dull@rd was caught pants down, sending silly messages on Twitter. Now he dumbly, decided to replicate his earlier propaganda hit by stating that the opposition was sounding like a broken record. Is this the way, a spokesman for a radical and serious President should sound like. Though, the President does not help matters with his itinerary of mistakes and stupendous actions, Adesina, could have done a whole lot better. If the President wants to be taken seriously, the time to do away with Adesina is now, not a year down the road, for if not, it will be too late.

I thought APC had 2 special advisers. Why don't we get to hear the voice of the other one ?
Btw, this Adesina guy needs to be tutored by Dr. Ruben Abati.

[color=deeppink]Hi all, I was just wondering, am I considered dark skinned or light skinned? [/color]

Too much skin is being covered. I need to see more so I can be sure.

FacelessPatriot:
obviously, the OP does not know much about the Nigerian constitution. Even an indictment by a state judicial commission of inquiry makes Amaechi unfit to be a minister in Nigeria. Make your research

No mind the olodo.

Nigerians are funny people. They justify one set if thieves but condemn the others. It is ok for Fashola to spend 78million naira for his "personal website" and build 2 bore holes for 130 million naira plus but wrong for Stella Odua to spend money on bullet proof cars. Something is wrong.

Ruuhh:
our problem now lies not in personel but in equipments, PMB has been able to bring our millitary out from its hitherto sorry state now the next thing is equipping this morale high personel but when we don't manufacture any gadget and those who do don't want to sell for reasons best known to them then there's only so much the government can do. we keep praying harder than ever,we will overcome God willing. Ameen

With people like you who choose to live in denial, there cannever be change. SMH.

yanabasee:


In as much as I hate to admit that this Government isn't doing anything to fight terrorism... I also hate to admit that Buhari never had any technicality to get rid of this sect. Even when he BRAGGED he's a former General and his collective techniques on fight against terrorism during his HOS regime.

Buhari thought, it'll be easy to battle Boko Haram and as well... Fought with all mights to disgrace GEJ in the poll. GEJ being so clueless but super-smart, played his cards well... But Buhari thought, his victory will be easy to ride...


I wish Buhari luck on his quest to make CHANGE inevitable.

Nigerians need the luck more, especially those in the North East.

Seriously what's the fuss about this? You guys make it look as if getting a "mansion " is the hardest thing in life , she's not the first and definitely not the last

I think she deserves some kudos since she started blogging 5 years ago.

MISSCONGENIALITY:
Please did anyone see anything like male prostitudes? I wud have been balance if the male prostitudes also came along so that husbands will go with their wive, and when the man is bleeping the female prostitude, the woman will be bleeping the male prostitude. Cos I'm very sure 70 percent of these men who visit brothels are married.

You want male prostitute ?

kokoA:
Nigerians will patronize anything imported, that's why our local industries are not growing.

. So make Nigerian men patronise local ashana

ooshinibos:
The only way to defeat these extremist is to replace their belief Ideology with a non violent one, currently , arms and weaponry will not be enough , killing one extremist produces 4 more extremists worse than the previous one , look at Iraq , Syria and Afghanistan , the leader of Boko Haram and Al-Qaida was killed 5 years ago , looks like they got stronger , this means it is the ideology that needs to be defeated and not only the killing the leader of the violent and evil movements that have hijacked religion to kill and destroy.
My advise to our Govt and Muslim scholars is to come out en mass and preach the peaceful Islam to replace the jihadist belief , in my opinion that the only way out

So there's an only way of defeating BH. How come we did not preach this only way ? All we heard was Gej does not have the will power.

When Gej was bombing Bh, Buhari said war against bh is war against the North. We've all heard this over and againbut we chose to keep quiet. If we dig up what bubusaid, it would seem as if we are inciting hate.
The Northern elders should have cooperated with Gej led govt when bh was still young. They sponsor bh and even hide the terrorist. When churches were bombed, they kept quiet but rejoiced in their closet.

But now the very evil they built with their hand is coming back to haunt them. Am I happy? No. I want justice.

Objektive:
THE DECEMBER DEADLINE WAS SET BY GARBA SHEHU.......................................................LIE MOHAMMED

Oh so the December deadline had nothing to do with Buhari.

philips70:
George Bush senior did not resign, junior did not resign, Clinton did not resign and Obama is resigning to fate over ISIS before Putin is coming to the rescue now. They all showed will power and commitments to fighting terror and exactly what PMB is doing at the moment. Setting a Dec deadline is a strategy to ginger the security forces to put in more effort just like companies set targets for salesmen.
If after 4 years Buhari fails in all ramifications like GEJ did, Nigerians will not hesitate to show him the door. No sentiments.

Hahahahaaa. You make me laugh. Show him the back door as if your vote will count.
Will power is okay even if you are clueless and inept. Congrats. We Nigerians like to shift the bar. Another excuse for failure.

Buhari do to BH what you did to maiststaine.

Hemanwel:
These are the kind of threads APC supporters and e-warriors avoid like a plaque..Always running away from saying the truth.

I think the APC and its supporters have now realized that it is never an easy task to nip insurgency in the bud,albeit,they used it against the past administration..They all owe GEJ an unreserved apology!

OR,what explanation do they have for this everyday bombings that we have in this CHANGE administration?

They have all ran with their tails between their legs. They are all ashamed. Tunde Bakare, Soyinka, El Ruffai, Mbaka, Oby are loudly quiet.
It's a pity that people have to die unjustly.

chukwudi44:
Seriously what is this!!!! Even Iraq of the 2003-2004 wasnever this bad!!! How did we as a nation get here. If only the former opposition co-operated with the previous Government!! If only the northern elders co-operated with GEJ perhaps things wouldn't have gotten so bad!!! Buhari you are now the president.Show us some of those your maiststaine skills you promised during the campaigns.

Abi ? show us those maistsaine skills make we see. Bunch of jokers.

MrBasketball:
