EgunMogaji2: Bro, we ain't fighting. Was only pointing out a buzzword I often hear from local builders and contractors. In the construction world there's nothing like USA Level. |

Xtopher123: To think that the two of you who are obviously bus conductors will be arguing about US standards is nauseating. Can't you both go and load your buses? |

omanzo02: That's not a thing about their standard but a choice of construction materials and methodology. They build more of modular and movable structures unlike we down here that build "permanent" structures. That's not to say they don't factor in Hurricane and flood into their design also not to say they don't have sub-standard structures built by shady contractors. |

Xtopher123:If materials and methodology can't withstand consistent natural threats then is safe enough to say the standard is not good enough. I think the cost and affordability is an issue to consider for their trend. |

omanzo02: Till they learn to mind their own business instead of engaging in tribalism with other tribes. I am not happy about this and since the mods and others here are not condemning tribalism, we all will be swimming in it. 2 Likes |

A man insulted a whole tribe (Igbo Nation) because of his personal experience on here and the elders kept quiet and effortlessly refused to call him to apologize to Igbos. If it's a standard practice here, no problem but if it's not a standard practice here, it must be condemned by all to avoid a repeat of such and to preserve the mutual respect on this thread. 9 Likes |

Rexology:I believe a public apology is in order. We can understand other sections are full of under aged and under exposed folks but there can't be any excuse here since it's mainly matured folks that frequent here. Contractors and service providers that should lend their voices often times maintain neutrality in other not to offend any party and loose potential patronage. It's awkward how everyone is minding their business, not wanting to offend anyone. 8 Likes |

gurunlocker: When you put finite players against infinite players, the finite players will always face problems. While the finite player is targeting a win, the goal of the infinite player is to perpetuate the game till a finite player lose the will power to continue. It’s just common sense! The more we look at our world through this lens of finite and infinite games, the more we see infinite games all around us, games with no finish lines and no winners. The only thing the matured ones can do is to teach the immatured ones what they don’t know.

Finite vs Infinite Mentality: Microsoft vs Apple Simon Sinek was invited to speak at Microsoft and Apple education summits. Microsoft had just launched the Zune portable media player in 2006, few years after Apple launched the iPod in 2001. Zune was the most elegant piece of technology that was built with an amazing interface, easy to use, design was spectacular; just a top notch product. At the education summit at Microsoft, 70% of the executives spent most of their presentation talking about how they wanted to beat Apple and be number one. At the end of Microsoft summit, they gave Simon a new Zune, as a gift. At the Apple education summit, 100% of the executives spent all of their presentation sharing about the vision of Apple and where they want to get to, with no mention of any competition. After the summit was done, Simon was sharing a cab with one of the top executives at Apple - he was the #12 employee at Apple. Simon liked to stir pots, so he turned to him, and said - "You know, Microsoft gave me a new Zune. And it is so much better than your iPod touch". The Apple executive turned to him and said, "I have no doubt". And that was it. Conversation over. One was playing a finite game - a game where there is one winner. The other was playing an infinite game, where the objective is to keep playing. One was obsessed with vision and the other was obsessed with beating the opposition. Companies who react strategically to competition, sacrificing on working on their vision, don't realize their highest potential. _______ A tribal war (infinite game) on a platform where people are focused on achieving their lifelong dreams (building a house, building wealth etc) wont realize it’s potential. 8 Likes 2 Shares |
