Health / Re: The Need For Birth Control by barbatee007(m): 7:15am On Apr 18, 2019 |
CaptainMitch:Don't say what you don't know please. Haram means not allowed /not permissible . Birth control in Islam is not Haram rather simply put is that, it is not encouraged and if you do it you are not committing sin. But on the hand it is Christianity most notably Catholics that detest it. 4 Likes 1 Share |

He just dislikes strong character, he did it to Ronaldinho, E too , ibrahimovich, Yaya etc. He likes obedient players I don't think he's racist he just like the feeling of being in control. Don't forget Mario Gotze too despite winning the World Cup for his country 7 Likes |

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: What Was Your Most Embarrassing Interview Moment? by barbatee007(m): 7:44pm On Apr 09, 2018 |
I got a call from my cousin that a pharmaceutical company she submitted my resume was conducting aptitude test in Lagos. Then I was still working in my MSc supervisor laboratory though he was paying me stipend I didn't want him to know I am still searching for jobs. Quickly I packed my bag and headed for Lagos and I arrived in time to write the test which luckily for me was a piece of cake.After finishing the test quickly and about to zoom back to Ife where I was schooling and managing myself only for the invigilator to announce that we should wait that they will mark and call the names of the successful candidates for interview which they would conduct that same evening. Well as expected I was called for interview while the rest were excused to go. Maybe I should just have excused myself if I had known what was in store for me in the interview room but no instead I walked with confidence in to the room when my name was called. I was thrown off balance when the first missile was shot at me by the lead panelist when he asked why I dressed "shabbily," for the interview. Mind you I was dressed in a T shirt and baggy jeans but I managed to answer that I came to write test not knowing I would be interviewed. Then came the simplest question you can ask a biochemist or someone that is still in academics is to explain Kreb cycle. My people I know it despite not expecting something as elementary as that but I became over excited and didn't know how to break the pathway down and explain myself. I would start and get stuck start again got stuck till the leader said Mr man please go and become a teacher you can't be our representative. A lady in the panel begged I should be given another chance cos she is convinced I know it and I was given another chance but I fumbled again only this time I excused myself. The leader of the panel was just laughing at me as I exited the room. Then came the mother of all embarrassment when I switched on my phone and entered the wrong pin 3 times and my Sim card was blocked. I didn't plan to sleep in Lagos so I went to ATM to withdraw money for traveling only to enter the wrong pin 3 times again and my ATM was blocked too. Well to summarize I had to resort begging for transportation money at Oshodi park before I could ride in a bus transporting tomatoes to Ibadan. Don't forget nobody knew I traveled so I had to sort myself. That was over 10 years ago but lesson learned was that I vowed never to settle for a teaching job as the lead panelist "advised". I wonder if he earns more than me now. N.B I am presently working in an integrated oil and gas company and I have only God to be grateful to for that. 48 Likes 2 Shares |
Career / Re: What Is The Most Suitable Job For A Married Woman With Kids? by barbatee007(m): 3:07pm On Aug 24, 2015 |
mownie: You can feel the venom in the attack. However, Jarus should desist from glorifying him with a reply as he had already corrected his warped opinion. Maybe he secretly admires him. But on the subject, I think the home should be the priority and a balance should be maintained between income and properly raising the kids. So for me, I will prefer my wife to be a business woman (flexible time) or a govt worker (8 to 2) since I already have a more challenging job. If it were to be the other way round, we will work it out the same way. |

Politics / My Prediction by barbatee007(m): 5:28pm On May 26, 2015 |
Well, I may not be T.B Joshua,the self acclaimed Nostradammus of the 21st century. But I saw this online and whole-heartedly believed the analysis. This prompted me to post this. Mind you am not a Buharist neither am I a Jonathanian. To those that saw the post that time. I TOLD YOU!!!!!! Nigeria Opposition’s Buhari Could Win, Disrupting Oil by barbatee007(m): 12:08pm On Mar 13 There is a 60% probability that Nigeria opposition leader Muhamadu Buhari could beat President Goodluck Jonathan in this month’s election, according to Eurasia Group. The Global X MSCI Nigeria ETF (NGE), up 1.6% today, has tumbled 14% year to date and is down nearly 36% over the past 12 months. The Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets ETF (VWO), up 0.5% today, is down nearly a point this year, and up 3.2% over the past year. Africa practice head and Analyst Philippe de Pontet writes today that while Jonathan was a favorite in the March 28 election, representing a victory for the country’s Christian south, the electoral map is tilting to Buhari in swing regions in the southwest and middle of the country. Buhari would be a technocrat, and investors could expect business-oriented policies, de Pontet writes, but Eurasia Group remains neutral on Nigeria for the long term, given downside risks to oil production and challenges to policy implementation. He adds: Teneo Intelligence Nigeria’s Peoples Democratic Party won the south in 2011 elections.“The election will still be difficult to call, but our expectation of a narrow Jonathan win was predicated on several factors that are losing some saliency late in the campaign. Chief among them is the incumbency and financial advantages of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). While this still helps Jonathan, its impact is blunted by the intensity of support for Buhari, lackluster grassroots campaigning by the PDP, and new anti-rigging measures by the electoral commission. New permanent voting cards and card readers will sharply reduce the level of rigging seen in 2011, when Jonathan beat Buhari in a landslide … While we expected the electoral map to favor Jonathan, current trends suggest that the swing regions may side with Buhari, including the Christian-majority and heavily-populated southwest around Lagos. That could be the decisive demographic factor in the election …” A local think tank, the Center for Public Policy Alternatives, gives Buhari a 58% to 32% lead in Lagos state, where Jonathan won the last election. Eurasia Group thinks Jonathan’s approval rating is below the 40% threshold under which incumbents have a hard time getting reelected. “Despite some important military gains against [the Islamic terror group] Boko Haram in the northeast, and a partial exoneration of its oil revenue management in a recent PWC audit, [Jonathan's] Peoples Democratic Party is starting to look desperate. … [But] it is not clear … that Buhari has a strong economic policy orientation. This uncertainty is a chief risk for investors.” Jonathan is likely to contest an unfavorable outcome, especially a close election, and that could mean protracted violence. “The reason we aren’t upgrading Nigeria’s outlook to positive, however, rests in the potential for an oil disruption and the likely pushback to Buhari’s policy agenda in a highly polarized political climate. His victory is likely to unleash a resurgence of militancy in the Niger Delta (Jonathan’s home region) that targets the oil sector. Former Delta militants have threatened to blow up oil pipelines, platforms, and personnel as in the past when they routinely took up to 500,000 barrels per day offline. There is likely some bluster in their threats http://blogs.barrons.com/emergingmarketsdaily/2015/03/12/nigeria-oppositions-buhari-could-win-disrupting-oil/?mod=yahoobarrons&ru=yahoo |

Career / How To Manage Office Gossips by barbatee007(m): 3:52pm On Feb 26, 2015 |
The conversation stops when you enter the room. Colleagues shoot sidelong glances as you pass. The office is abuzz but nobody is talking to you about it—because you’re at the center of the rumors Sometimes at one point in our careers, we've had to face this kind of situation. This situation if not properly managed will have a serious or catastrophic effect on your productivity at your place of work. I for one hate attention, I have always tried as much as possible to deflect any situation that will bring me to the public glare of my colleagues. But as much as I tried to do that, right from when I was in schools to my places of work, it just doesn't work out. I have always been singled out either for honors or for additional responsibilities. This will inevitably bring me to the fore of public discussions among my colleagues. They will say "he is too young or not experienced or just being favored unnecessarily". Office gossip can be a welcome distraction. It just can be hard to know what to do when you become the focal point. Overreacting or saying the wrong thing may fan the flames, but ignoring some kinds of gossip can damage your reputation or even career. When in this situation, 1. Learn to drop the rumour jokingly as a side talk about yourself and clarify it. 2. Let it slide, they will get tired of it. 3. Don't be emotional about it, it should not affect your self esteem. 4. Protect your reputation by displaying your skills before them, Trust me this works like magic. 5. Try and maintain strong alliances at the 3 levels in your organization i.e 1. Your level 2. Below your level 3. Above your level. They will have your back when you leave the room Feel free to add more.
