CareerRe: Can Someone Survive On ₦130,000 Monthly In Lagos? by Wiseoldman: 11:41am On Jul 13, 2013

PhonesRe: Samsung-Galaxy Tab2 VS Tecno-Phantom Pad N9 by Wiseoldman: 2:23pm On Jul 11, 2013
Im posting this with a techno smartphone...

fyi: i have used bb, iphone 4s, itouch, and i had a galaxy for two weeks...

If you want to make a statement (i.e keep up with the jones) dont use a techno...

But if you dont give a damn, techno smartphones provides you best value for money...

But i respect people with brand loyalty for not using techno, eg i for one only use LG laptops, and wear Movado timepieces.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: What Must I Do To Get A Job Immediately After Service. by Wiseoldman: 1:58pm On Jul 09, 2013
dddaaayyyooo: I actually log in because of this Big Question U asked. U need 2 + 1 = 3 Tinz to get job after ur NYSC.
1, You need to start applying and submitting ur CV to Firms 3 months to when ur service year will be over and also give ur CV to people who can help u because that's d best way to get a job here in Nigeria

2, U need to Pray To God.

3, U won't like this sha but I have to add it. If u don't get a job months after ur NYSC. Please don't do anything funny. U may not understand that but av it in mind too that u may not get a job as fast as P .
That's my own advice for u
Ur point 2 is very correct, the God factor.

Well i would correct the 3 month proir application. Rather start applying 6 months b4 d end of nysc... ideally u might fail d first or second test...also recruitment into any "good" coy in Ng will ideally span 6 months.

Also if u haven't mastered apt test...pls do, forget that u were a genius in ui, unilag, cu, abu, lasu, uniport, oau, etc its a different ball game when d sample space is much larger.

dadaic: YOUNG MAN, YOU CAN ABUSE THE GUY, NOT JESUS NOR GOD, IF YOU ARE MUSLIM, I WON'T GO ABOUT ABUSING OR SAYING RUDE THINGS ABOUT ALLAH, BECAUSE GOD IS GOD, BUT USING SUCH WORD ABOUT OUR GOD IS WRONG, SO WATCH YOUR WORD BEFORE WE START TRUE WAR..
True war?

U dont need that bro, i also bet he's not a muslim. Muslims do believe in God, albiet called Allah.

Einstien said, "We cannot solve a problem at the same level of reasoning that created it" What the fellow needs is a helping hand and our prayers.

Freedom of expression please.
Thank you!

God iz indeed patient...

Wow...this makes me fear him more, for no man, not even me would create something and watch dem misbehave to me like this.

I really hope u do believe God created us, not some evolution/bigbang pooo. I'm a learned person, with fairly good science head on my shoulder, and i tell u, it takes more "faith" to believe that i am a decendant of a bacteria!
PoliticsRe: Lagos– Ibadan Expressway: FG Had To Intervene – Jonathan by Wiseoldman: 1:01pm On Jul 06, 2013
Lagusta: I noticed that the lagos-ibadan expressway joins the ibadan-oyo-ilorin expressway, why can't we just rename it LAGOS-ILORIN EXPRESSWAY!!!!
Lagos to Sagamu (Julius Berger, Uncompleted)

Sagamu to Ibadan (RCC, Uncompleted)

Ibadan to Oyo ( PW, Completed)

Oyo to Ogbomoso (Unknown, Ungoing but Uncompleted)

Ogbomoso to Ilorin (RCC, Completed)

That should be over 270Km of highway....

Impressive, i hope its indeed completed soon.
RomanceRe: How Do You Handle Financial Issues In Your Relationship? by Wiseoldman: 7:54pm On Jul 05, 2013
arcbabe: Why would someone have a guy that can't support them? it is very bad and I know most of those that commented are either being stingy or fools. Some guys are naturally greedy and can't assist you when you are in need not that they don't have but they are just wicked to assist. What is wrong in appreciating your girl, someone you claim to love even though it's small but not giving her 1k. Hmmm! Some guys are dumb that they know when a lady is in need but won't say anything and it's those stingy type that won't stop disturbing you for sex. Hell no! If you can't take good care of me, u can never qualify to be my guy.
You are taking it too far my dear...i normal for ladies to desire gifts. But once a lady puts it on her head like safety helmet, it very bad for her!!!

She'll end up attracting buyers not lovers....
RomanceRe: How Do You Handle Financial Issues In Your Relationship? by Wiseoldman: 7:39pm On Jul 05, 2013
She's just being a lady for expecting gifts either financial or not. When she's constantly demanding then, thats a problem.

I remember an older friend pointed this universal xter of women to me. He introduced me to his Professor(Mrs) friend. Though a renowned professor of engineering, she still likes to "ask" for some funny things just like every other lady.

Ladies just like to be pampered...either a professor or a secondary school girl, all nah d same mentality....

I think the nigerian entertainment folks should organise a fundraiser for him. I believe they are very much capable, including that "kid" that calls 500k cheap money.
