​THE INTERVIEWEE WHO HATED ME​

6 years ago a guy looked at me face to face, and boldly told me; "I don't like you!" I immediately fired a response, I asked him that day; "Thank you for the honest feedback, but those that you like, how has it made their life better? How does your liking people pay their bills or take a bank loan? My brother keep your like, I need God's like And that's what guarantees my future. Today I joined a CEO friend of mine in an interview Panel to recruit some new staff, it was a long session, as we returned from a coffee break to continue the hectic interview session, here was this same guy walked in with his grey jacket and CV coming for the interview. Our eyes kissed by fluke, we immediately recognised each other; "the world is indeed spherical", I soliloquized. He felt very uncomfortable through out the interview, one could clearly see the volcanic eruption ongoing in his whole nervous system, he even mistook his date of birth for his last date of empl

How To Pay Your Employees Less

Disclaimer: Opinions expressed by me are my own. One of my old bosses used to say “Running a business is like driving a vehicle. There are only so many levers to pull and knobs to turn.” As a business leader, you can change your product or service lineup or change prices. You can make a great deal with a supplier and save a few bucks. You can change your distribution system or write a snappy advertising slogan. You can try different marketing approaches and work on the back end of your business, the supply chain and your manufacturing or production process. That’s about it. There are only so many levers you can pull or push on. When you have employees, payroll is a major issue. Payroll could be your business’s biggest cost. You see the big number at the bottom of the spreadsheet and the thought is going to cross your mind, “How can I keep this payroll cost down?” Hiring employees for less than they deserve is the worst possible way to save money.

#SaveNairobiPark

I'm not such a 'wangari mathai', but I try to be. I love nature. I love parks. I hate destroyers. I support putting #HandsOffOurElephants I hate killing lions. I hate anything making us have less of our big five and others. This is different, not very different though. A good railway is in construction. It'll benefit us alot. The bad thing is, though I can't verify this, that it's gonna pass through Nairobi National Park. Nairobi national park is so scenic. A rare occurrence in planet earth. A national park in a city. I really wouldn't like it to pass through it. Please, let's not do this.

User Registration - I need Help

am registering users via csv file. I get user details, then save them in the usual users table using the  JUser  class. What is not working are extra columns I have. I've created them in the db already. My code is as below $pass = 'xxxxxxx'; //default $data = array( "name"=>$allnew[$i]->name, "username"=>$allnew[$i]->username, "password"=>$pass, "password2"=>$pass, "email"=>$allnew[$i]->email, "telephone"=>$allnew[$i]->telephone, "test"=>strtolower($allnew[$i]->test), "test1"=>$allnew[$i]->test1, "gid"=>18, "usertype"=>$newUsertype ); $userr = ne
