Nothing to do with Dunderhead, Dundee United started becoming a term of abuse/insult in the 70's after the tour.

The original poster is right.

I have read all the responses you have received after checking out your profile of course.

I do have my reservations about your real purpose and of course your integrity which is not even helped by your choice of moniker; Thug.....nificent. You have been online soliciting for financial assistance for just too long. Are you sure something is not wrong somewhere?

I am nonetheless going to make you an offer that will take you off begging forever.

Are you a graduate of any discipline but from a recognized university?

Are you willing to take a position that will redirect your focus and enable you develop a long term career?

Can you be trusted with large sums of money on a daily basis?

Are you an internally driven and motivated personality?

Do you reside in Lagos?

I assume that you already have a functional smartphone that you can use for the interview and also for first three months before you are given the company standard.


If your response to the above is all positive then you may read on;

I know of a company that I will convince them to employ you for the sum of 30,000 for the first three months (training) and 50,000.00 monthly by the fourth month. If you succeed during the interview process which by the way is quite rigorous, you will resume in May 2019.

As a resumption grant I will advance you the sum of 50,000(3 months interest free loan) to enable you get your act together but only if your prospective employer is convinced that you are right for the role and has given me this assurance. By the fourth Month I will request that you refund the amount to me (interest free and without excuses).

If this offer is favourable to you kindly indicate by sending me an email with your resume as soon as possible.

A majority of Nairaland commentors are Dundees. There are over 2million members on Nairaland with an estimated 10million non registered members. Out of the over 2million register members, only 0.5% of them are regular commentors who also push the like, share, and mention buttons. 70% are active readers who go through the comments but don't like, share or mention. 29% are active readers only. They don't wish to see the rubbish posted by half of 0.5 commentors.

That is why the average maximum likes fluctuates between 100 - 300likes per very good and very useless comments and peak at 400likes for great and most useless comments.
