Career / Re: How My Upholsterer Lost 15 Million Naira Contract Because Of Attitude by Cobbamyk: 3:33pm On Apr 05, 2022

Attitude they say is everything. Once you don't have it, forget it.

So I moved to this new apartment last year and the whole place was messed up 100% by the former occupant. So i called in my guy who is specialized in cabinets and other furniture works. He revamped the whole flat and my landlord was dazed.
So while he was working, on that same first day, my landlord connected him up with one of his friends. Mind you, he lives abroad and he only comes around spend few weeks and go back.

After few weeks he called him up that he has a job for him at ibadan to setup a flat, they guy said he doesnt travel to work elsewhere. I did not hear about this until 2 days ago.

So on friday, we bought two dogs in the house and my landlord needed a cage for the dogs so he asked to to sort it out. As usual i called him up, though i did not tell him the nature of the job cos one of the job was sensitive. So when he arrived, I told him we needed a cage for the dogs.
This guy just arranged cage as if a bingo dog want to live there. My landlord came out and saw the job but he complained that he needed something lovely for the dogs.
The guy replied that he doesnt even make cages for dogs and that if it wasnt for me that called him, he wont do such work. Temper flared and my landlord told him to leave.

During the time he was making the cage, My landlord was on a call cos he works for the state government. He just secured the furniture contract of 30 rooms in a guest house in the government house. It was around 15M +. He was hoping to give this my guy. Only for him to mess things up.

He showed me the call logs and i was speechless.
I havent told him cos we have not seen since then. This is a guy who has just a bike and a small shop. Someone that is still hussling saying he cant do this or that.

I learnt from his mistakes. If you know you have a profession, dont think their is a level at which you cant work anymore. Just because they give you repaid 2020 benz and above doesnt mean you should ignore someone that brings a 2004 model. Its your work, at least you will be paid.

In this life ,have come to learn that in what ever you do,do it Right.....no matter how small the job can be, do it as if it is your own and you want to do something great got your self because what you do for someone else might be the thing to speak for you anywhere in the world...always try your best to do the right thing at all time and don't ever underate work been small or little...just do your best and live the rest for God to handle.....the small job you do might be your passport to greater achievement tomorrow....so be grateful for anything that comes your way....peace out...

FalseProphet1:
In your earlier post you said your friend is based abroad and comes to Nigeria to stay two weeks and then leave.

Then in your concluding part you said he has a bike and small shop and he's just hussling...

I see lies in this story.

This I have seen.

Oga, you are what your name is...is it that you read the article upside down or what and if there is kind of mistake on the article can't you use your initiative to correct it...that is why some people will watch film and will never gain little knowledge from it...because of the way they watched the film....when ever you see a write-up,always read it as if you were the one writing it out and think ahead of what you reading to understand better.....I come in peace!!!!...

Sounds a bit tricky! Let me explain,

Your landlord would have called different carpenters and go through their invoices before picking one. This has nothing to do with pride.

Stating what he does and does not do is his right to freedom of expression of his work ethics. Your landlord is only looking for someone to ride on like a horse!

Conclusion, if your landlord would give a roadside carpenter a job for the government house, shows you how our government is being run. No disrespect to roadside carpenters, but a 15M job should be given to a reputable furniture company!!
A proverb always says , wearing big clothes doesn't makes you a big man....not every bug company you see today are very good in what they advertise...do you know that most of them,when they gets the contract,they will then call that road side guy that is good to help then do it..but alas the job will be presented by d guy with the contract while the road side guy will be paid penny...never underate anyone in life...the person that will make you great might not be someone with riches and wealth but might be someone without anything in which God can use as your instrument to Glory...always appreciate everyone that is attached to your life either good or bad cos only God knows the end from the beginning and beginning from the end....

Career / Re: Wife's Phone Searched & All Contacts Deleted By Her Boss, Can I Sue Or Not? by Cobbamyk: 4:47am On Mar 07, 2022
You can sue the hm for privacy violation ....there is an evidence since u said your wife contacts get messages from the hm about there relationship with her..all you will do is to call those ppl ,meet ith them and ask Dem not to delete the message on there fone for evidence and also make sure you try call the number to be sure it is d hm dat owns d fone. Act as if you wanna apply your wards into the school and get more info from dere but make sure when calling you record the calls for evidence proofs...he /she needs to go to jail so as to reach other school owners dat spoils image of someone who wanna quit the school for another or greener pastures...
