👍 Aiit Miss. I heard there is a place in lagos where i can get stacks of old books, novels, textbooks and at a cheap rate.
it depends though..I collect books anywhere and anytime.most times,it's the least expected stores that have bestsellers at discounted prices..One can't say keep for me because you might never see those books there again.

I remember the good old days, i read a lot of novels, and even read more if i had money to purchase them. But nowadays, children no longer read novels. I am yet to see a child that loves reading, they are now more engrossed in tiktok.
what do you expect from a generation of Pablo and pablets?They even find it difficult to read to pass their exams.They see reading as waste of time.Only God can help salvage the situation.

Kane and Abel was a master class man.

Sydney Sheldon is my all time favorite but between those two you listed Kane and Abel was the best, but not as great as wind mills of the God and master of the game by Sydney Sheldon. Same bloodline too. I read those books over 5 times each.
Sidney Sheldon is a grandmaster story teller!!💪💪💯..Bloodline,Master of the game and If tomorrow comes will be my all time favourite of his.

Kwame was the principal's son and i guess something must have happened for mustapha to be ahead of him cos mustapha was my seat mate from primary 4 to 5. Kwame was my class mate from primary 1 to 3 but later was in the B class from primary 4. Mustapha joinee Apata in primary 4. If you have mustapha social media handle, kindly let me know. Really wish to connect with him. Last time i saw him was in front of his Dad's house at ago palaceway a year after secondary school.

Mustapha did common entrance in year 5 I guess..Kwame stayed behind for year 6.That was what made us become setmates.i'll ask around from some people in our group chat..i should have him on FB.i'll check.

Mustapha Anifowose was our senior in high school .He graduated a year before Kwame sarkodie and i. i think their set has a WhatsApp group as well .. He's not using his real name on Social media.He's into music..

If you're looking for a bias mindset, just go look into a mirror and the dude with the worst one would be glaring at you. Jeez, who amongst them had a good game in the game in the final (the only game because of whom you wanted to put a blame on Aina)? If ever we even have to blame any of the defender, it should even have been Bassey who stvpidly chested a high ball down in front of our goal area for an oncoming Ivorian attacker to capitalized on for the second goal. Go back to the game to see the mistake that led to the second goal. You're blinded to the mistake but complains about Aina who was trying to defend the blunder (albeit unsuccessful). Why don't you call out Troos too for allowing Haller sneaked a foot into his front for the goal or was it only Aina that must stop a goal? Again, Bassey was such a big fool for gifting the Ivorian such glorious opportunity and he should thank his star people overlooked the blunder. The team, itself, was able to make the final on the back of such very good defensive workrate from the backline, the one of which Aina was a pivotal contributor.
Iwobi was being called out because he had a bad tournament. Same way Chukwueze and some others.

And running under such moniker can't change your lineage, you know. Butterfly thinking itself a bird.
I'm surprised he's saying Aina should be removed..The effort of Aina in AFCON cannot be underestimated.That guy is basically among the top 5 that projected SE to the finals. Aside his south African penalty flop that can happen to any player .,we should give him his flowers abeg..He should rewatch the match we played against Cameroon and E Guinea. Aina is a super defender!!

Career / Re: My Boss Calls Me All The Time. by goldbim(f): 2:41pm On Oct 02, 2023
Geovanni412:


grin grin

You may not like my answer....

Your boss values you as a trusted employee and he is willing for you to carry the load of the school

By bringing you close to him, he is making you feel comfortable that you are important to the school

The happiness you feel of being important will allow him continue to pay you pennies for years whilst others in your field will keep advancing and make more money

Your happiness will make you believe that one day, he will recognize your value and elevate you by giving you a better deal but such a day will likely never come.


If you doubt what I'm saying, ask your boss for a raise in line with your increasing responsibility and see what he will say. cool

My two cents...

Use your sense and prepare to find a new job before you wake up one day and wonder how you wasted 4-5 yrs of your life working for a psycho cool
@ OP,kindly consider this advice.. I've been in your shoes and I have to take the bulls by the horn.. you'll just realize that your mates have achieved alot and you're just stucked .I was in same position and I did that for 13years ..all is just a ploy to make you so comfortable..
He'l discuss family affairs with you and even make you look like a member of his family but guesd what?" A stranger will always be a stranger".
Don't get too comfortable In that school because even your colleagues will be envious of you and they'll think you're the one influencing his decisions one way or the other..
Start looking for better options!!leave that comfort zone..I wish I was this wiser 10years ago.

MrCuteking:


As in ehn. I think it’s not just for security reasons but also psychological.

Getting to the place where one will have to take off his belt is scary too. Once you enter that final queue, the fear in there is out of this world. I saw an army man sweating profusely because of the final stage of his interview. It’s not easy at all.

Even when I tried not to be scared, despite the confidence I have, Omo all the confidence no follow me enter the final stage. Immediately I opened the door after denial, confidence accompanied me with “no vex, na fear hold me too” grin

I was just thinking of what I missed and how I should have answered the questions. Men!
lol, it's always like that but I think when the time comes it will happen..A friend of mine was denied like 3 times before he was given on his 4th attempt.Now, he's in the US with his family...Their interview and the whole process have a way of messing up with one's mental health..
I feel they shouldn't make one go through all that stress if one will be denied.. it's really frustrating seeing grown able bodied men crying in the presence of their family members especially those innocent kids that'll wear sch uniform with their parents..They should just let everything end at the checkpoint gate by making a roster of qualified applicant🤣.

You get it bro, the way they will check you henn , you will be scared pull your shoe's, wrist Watch, inside your eye's, under your foot, your ten fingers they will scan you fully the security checkpoint is almost 6 places.you see some people mimicking the consular accent 🤣🤣🤣🤣 speak your normal
accent.....no form the consular will like it.
I can't laugh o..🤣. I'll never forget a
young guy of maybe 21 or so that was interviewed in my presence and he was actually looking tattered and unkempt..He was asked, why do you want to go to the US?The next thing he said "Business"...
V.O-really?
Y.M-yes.
V.O-Interesting,How much do you have and who's sponsoring your trip ?
Y.M-i think he mentioned a very huge millions of naira and everyone bursted into laughter..
.V.O-How did you make so much money?At your age??pardon me🤣
Y.M-the only thing he was shouting was Legit,legit,legit.
Blue paper straight!! ..🤣🤣.They didn't even collect his passport ..

What I believe about America Visa is luck and God destiny just pray the consular like you at that moment of interview you..... When you get to America embassy you will see different human beings on queue acting drama some will be praying some will be qoating Bible verse and speak in tongues lol 😁 some will be saying incantation 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Omo yepa, inside your mind you will be thinking you are already in America because of the beauty of the place, you will see all the name of all states in shape of map on the wall the place is beautiful. Wishing you good Luck's

Lastly just make sure you pray for God favour you and remember all your information you fill in your form don't make mistake be civil and have eyes contact with your interviewer only answer the question he / she ask you don't do over sabi in her front and don't panic and speak moderately don't shout and don't speak too low with eyes contact, and arrive in time before your scheduled appointment time and dress decently and use a nice perfume
You will succeed by grace of God.
🤣🤣That place is a comedy movie scene!! especially when you have to listen to people that are lying to the consular while you're standing on the queue awaiting your own fate jeje..!!All the same,God is on the throne.what will be will be !.
It's just " LUCK and GOD'S WILL".The security check alone is enough to make one have a rethink if you have bad intentions ..😊
