So, people eat sharks ?

Yes. It tastes nice with cheese and French fries; especially the blue shark.

My fellow nairalanders help me out on this. My immediate elder sister said she can't marry the guy she's dating.

The guy is a successful barber. I love the guy because he seem responsible and well cultured. From the looks of things, he will make a good husband for her.

But my sister shook the whole house yesterday when the supposed barber proposed to her, She outrightly rejected the guy because of his profession.

She's in her mid 20s. Please what should we do? She's getting older but she seems not to realise.

The guy called me this morning and pleaded with me to talk to her. What will I say to her, now?

A wider view will be much appreciated.

There's definitely an underlying reason your sister doesn't want to share. Ask her well and onish her accordingly.

Barbering is a noble profession. Successful barbers are millionaires. Tell your sister to have a rethink.

If it's only about the profession, then your sister wanna try out a good chance. All the best to your sister and to the fellow barber.

With money in your pocket, education is possible, to finance your education will be easy and you'll be studying without fear and anxiety. Money still has a strong role to play when it comes to attaining higher goals in education.

Education is not limited to 4 walls of the classroom, my dear brother.

...and I agree.

This is a serious one. The LASTMA official is in deep trouble, from all indications.

He orders loafers shoes and got "Laughing shoes"

He should have ordered from MANSPACE

The only constant thing in life is change. The best part is positive change.

We can actually utilize the population explosion for our own good, provided we position ourselves well enough.

Forget African governments, more of individuality in this context.

Everybody for him office for Naija go wan show power.

Young man, you've done well. Yoi deserve to enjoy the glory that comes with kindness.

I read about this guy when he enrolled for Bachelor's degree now bagging his Master's. Great.

Love is a beautiful thing.

Champions don't avoid challenges, they develop thick skin and strategies to overcome them.

Thank you for your bravery, commitment and sacrifice.

Good morning!

Greetings, good people of Nairaland

Please I need a piece of honest advice from experienced nairalanders, I am a Software Engineer, I got an offer from a very close friend (He is like a brother to me) of mine that resides in Dubai to come and manage a club he co-owns to enable him time for other activities. I will need to learn how nightclubs operate since I have little or zero knowledge about the nightlife. I have the freedom to pick up side gigs (or remote work) when I can and He is not in any way restricting me but he needs me to learn the business with him.

The plan, in a simple language, when I learn the business well enough he will pull out and open his own so I can be his manager since he doesn't want recognition.

He paid for my flight ticket and was the one that processed the visa for me (tourism) and he is currently working on how my visa can be extended and my work permit too.

Before I came to Dubai, I applied for this opening with a tech firm in Berlin. I completed the last stage here in Dubai and have been sent the offer but I will have to relocate to because the work is on-site, the company bare expenses regards flight ticket, travel insurance, visa process et al. The start salary is 56K euros per annum (gross).

Also, I resigned from a bank as a development specialist (full-time staff not yet confirmed though, was earning 450K naira net with other benefits) prior to my trip to Dubai. I was doing well in Nigeria because I earned a total of up to 800K (with all my works combined) just that the work ethic (the bank work) is toxic to me because you will work your brain out debugging code, plus I am looking at a good place that I can start a family when I am ready and Nigeria is a no for me unless I have enough money to send my kid abroad to study.

What do I do now that I am already in Dubai? I am ionate about tech and I love the echo system. Please any input from experienced fellows will go a long way for me.

Thanks in advance. Mod please help so I can get as much input as possible

Provided the offer is genuine, I would advise you to go the Berlin way.

It may even be a launching pad for you in . Techies have options in and they're sorted for.

With time, you can even migrate from to a country like Switzerland where you can raise your children and settle your family, if Nigeria or Africa is out of choice place to settle in(at least for now)

Godspeed, my brother.
Alles gute!

Good evening everyone. To cut the long story short my mental health issues started in 2012 when I tried weed in the university. It's not genetic. I've also been in and out of psychiatric hospitals a good number of times. However I'm currently on medication and I've been able to manage the condition. I was also able to graduate and I've also done my nysc and my family is planning on opening a small business for me since job has not been forthcoming.

However my health condition has been kept secret by me and family and I'm currently dating a nice girl. Please should I tell her my secret. What caused most of my episodes was refusal to take my medication and all that but right now I'm very okay and for some few years now I've been going about my daily affairs without any issue. If I let the cat out of the bag I don't think she may stay cos the stigma of mental health issues is not a joke. Please I need your advice on how to handle this delicate issue. Thanks

My brother, the most important thing is that you talk it out and there are ready to listen to you.
Please take your medication seriously and refrain from being isolated, idle or lonely.

Tell her if she has developed a strong interest in you. If she is genuinely interested in you, you would be amazed how her can an additional tool for you to fight the battle you are already winning.

If she's not meant for you, she may go, but your family would be there till someone meant for you comes.

All in all, you can't hide your story from her if you want to build a serious relationship with her.

My brother, this month I grow moustache to raise awareness for the boys close to me, who lost their battles to mental illness and testicular cancer.

I would like to see you more around. I want to let you you know that no matter how you are feeling, someone else can relate. You're not alone. I care.


In case you need someone to talk to, I'm all ears.

Well deserved.

That's why salon dey spring up everywhere... Me too go look into that matter..
Imagine just 5 haircut per day
5x 500 = 2500
For a month .. 30 x 2500
= 75000.

My brother, please abort that mission! I repeat terninate that mission!! If what inspires you to opening a barbershop is the patronage you see at your barber's place; you gotta blame yourself.


You've got to have an idea of beauty and personal care business or practical experience in managing barbershop before you venture into it.

My 50kobo advice offered.

MemoriesAndMe:

Everyone pays for them as they don't come free. So a barber that needs to provide his own electricity and still charge less than $2 in Nigeria is unheard of in some climes.

Thank you,my brother. It boils down to the experience the barbershop is offering.

I've seen barbershops that charge nothing less than ₦2,000 for basic haircut, and they record more patronage than the regular 'salons' who charge in the range of hundred.

The problem here is that a lot of barbers are selling their services instead of offering memorable experience with innovation, marketing their value and finding a way to reduce thier cost to make profit.

The truth is barbers who know their onions charge according to the quality of their service plus good customer relations.

Edoziesmart:
Here in Enugu I pay my barber 300, though the guy insisted I pay him 400 the last time. So I left him and met one new guy that barb my hair at ₦250 flat rate.

The difference between the formal barber and the later barber is just interior decoration in their shop. But no be A.C and well furnished shop I come Enugu to chop.
Country hard now.

There would always be a difference.
My brother, the difference is in the experience.

lordally:


I tried it once and the kind rashes and CrawCraw wey I get for head after the barbing ehn Omo I regret am! I just don't know why I get reactions whenever I use a blade to barb my head. I have a clipper so I barb skin so this has saved me a lot of money from going to the saloon to barb! But clipper doesn't give me the Shiny Skin cut I would love to have!

That's the difference.
Shaving is actually expensive in comparison to low haircut.
Straight razor shave is the bomb. There are nice barbershops that offer straight razor harsh-free, but it's not cheap.

I'm a barber.

tuna85:
I reside within Ogun State, been barbing a low cut for N400 since January, had to visit the salon recently as a local guy. I asked of the price and was shown the price list.

As I looked up, I saw N700. Was shocked! I know the luxury barbers charge more but mehn, I am talking about the traditional salons here.

Let's know the cost in your location.

Brother, good cuts aren't cheap and cheap cuts aren't good.

Traditional 'salon'? If I get you right, you mean barbershop that offers traditional barbering services like straight razor shave, beard trim, haircut, head to shoulder massage, shoeshine etc. Mehn! Traditional barbershops are not cheap, they are expensive than the regular 'salon'

Also, depending on the outlook and experience the barbershop you visited offer, ₦700 is relatively fair.

Keep calm and your barber.

However, if you're around Abeokuta, Ogun State, Manspace is creating a social hub where today's gentleman can come to unwind, build confidence and stay on top of his style while he looks after his well-being and beauty in a therapeutic space.

Manliness is an art; master it!

Craggybogg:
The Cars Profs in the house. I need your assessment on this particular car. Mercedes Benz C300. I need the pros and cons of this car of based on the conditions of the Nigerian Roads, Fuel rate consumption, Spare part availability in the Nigerian Market (Ladipo and Co.). Your assessment would be highly appreciated because I am thinking about copping one.

P.S:- I also noticed people often sell it after using it for 1-3 years. Could there be any problems ? Tell me things(problems) to encounter if I should buy the car this week!.

Thanks in Advance!

You're good to go.
to choose the sport edition instead of the luxury.(Perhaps cos I like the sporty)

Enjoy!
