I haven't been paid for 3months(this is the third). It was not on my contract (I work for a contractor) that I was to be on probation. I've complained to the rich client (who parleys with my Oga). Short of picketting my Oga's car (his 6th - a cool Honda I-VTEC) I don't think "dialogue" would work.
This is what I'm doing:
I'm running things so I can leave the country for my Masters'
I've planned to leave the company by August at the latest
I'm sending my CVs everywhere I can in the interim
Since I'm into design, I design at home and try to sell, even online from the office
I'm pestering anybody who gives me a daily schedule to buy me food because "I'm broke"
There's nothing else I can think of, except the certainty that I don't want to be here, and that here MUST turn out a stepping stone for MY future plans for myself![sub][/sub]I'm open to more practicable suggestions. I'm tired. I've tried.

Talking nyangnyang puu as usual.
You and your mates killed over 5 million people to create this embersssment of a country? This is it? The country that merited such a callous destruction of human lives? I can look at the Americans and the Chinese and see the gains of their civil wars. But Nigeria!? You guys created the biggest monument of shame to the black man on rop of millions of black lives??
Less than ten years after Azikiwe chased away the white man, you guys went back to London , Washington and Moscow, to railroad the same colonialists back into the politics of the country, all because of your inordinate thirst for oil.
You are still enjoying the dirty proceeds of that oil till today, while pontificating to the rest of us. What has Gowon done to prove that he is a statesman and that he is against institutionalized injustice against any section of the country?
He will never speak up against the marginalisation of the former Eastern Nigeria that started during your regime. He finds it hard to speak up and say the truth that the coup was nothing but a military coup organized by friends in the army. He keeps quiet as that very coup by few officers is used as a convenient excuse to attack a whole ethnic group. He even finds it hard to defend his own Commander, who made him the Army Chief!
Then at his quiet but turbulent times and with death staring the man in the face, he starts to erupt with all sorts of inebriated mambo jumbo on how another war should not be fought. So the marginalizes should endure in "peace"? So that oil will always fliw..
That is the height of treachery if you ask me.
Gowon is nothing but the Pol Pot of Africa
why havent you done anything about thr problems. its easy to criticise other people. but you yourself, why havent you changed anything

If someone promises to give you 20m at the end of the year, on the condition that you must not spend more than 3k per month for 12 months, will you take the challenge?
Yes I will. You did not specific the currency. If it's USD, Sterling or Euros, definitely. $3K is 5million Naira monthly. That definitely is an easy decision to make
Almost all the girls wey dey follow men/boys/lecturers for school don marry and born children. The ones wey dey single na small percentage. I no wan hear or read kini kon that Nigerian men know how to assess whether women don spoil or not. The pictures I see and looking back at their activities in school say otherwise. At the same, the ones wey bin dey do church church sef don marry. Na small percent wey never as dem dey pursue their business/career.
All of us na ashawo and we go marry ashawo. Na ashawo we dey do.
Jeruadamma:
Mosi loved Temi, but her parents didn’t. They thought Temi was strange because he always wore his hoodie, even indoors. But Temi was more than that—he was an artist with eyes as dark as midnight. Mosi’s heart chose him, even when her parents disapproved.
In their cozy room at Ebute Metta, Temi and Mosi painted their love story. The cold air outside couldn’t touch them. Temi whispered promises warmed her soul.
Mosi decided: she’d choose love over judgment, weaving vibrant colors into their shared canvas.
Kobojunkie: OP, have you considered finding yourself better friends tp hang with instead? Those two you described seem to have drama and lack of discipline written all over them and I wonder why In this hard time anyone would want to busy themselves with such unnecessary dirty drama.
Please do not get me wrong here, I am not in any way suggesting you cut yourself off completely from the drama of life. If drama is really what you love then there are more cleanly written stories out there you can binge online or in other lives that at least boast contain some amount of character growth and even progress. Just that these friends of yours seem to be going nowhere fast and I would not recommend any of them to anyone I know or care about.
