@EOEboh Customer support in AI lol 😂

[Ray 👨🏽‍💻 website & app developer @Raynerdtech]

Everyone is chasing AI, frontend, and data analytics.

Meanwhile, the highest-paid skills are the ones people avoid because they’re boring, difficult, or invisible.

• DevOps / Platform Engineering
• Site Reliability Engineering (SRE)
• Cloud Security
• Application Security
• Solutions Architecture
• Database Engineering
• Systems Programming (Rust/C++)
• MLOps
• Kubernetes Engineering
• Enterprise Sales Engineering

Nobody wants to learn the boring stuff

[Sultan.js @sultanabaniks]

As a tech person, try as much as possible to have at least two jobs. If one goes south, you won't be stranded.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@sultanabaniks Moonlighting sweet as fuck.

@ileri_bobo_ @maybedward @OtitoNosike Many people get to study something life changing but are never thought the real world applications of it, because the lecturers may not care, nor have the practical idea.
This is why a geologist over here, will move to finance and you see a geophysicist complaining no job.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@ileri_bobo_ @maybedward @OtitoNosike Same thing infuriating Jim
Our education system isn't teaching us to solve real problems, instead you are loaded with theories without knowing what to do with them.
Take Pythagoras and Calculus for example they are used for building games, we only solve them for fun here.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@BiluluCharles @OtitoNosike I am talking about societal development generally.
Someone earning 120k doesn't mean they failed, it could be due to circumstances, knowledge gap or lack of demanding skills.
Our own education over here never teaches you to solve problems thus creating poor graduates.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@iamstephencrown I went to two schools tho and about to graduate from one.
It's a complement.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

It's actually a big slap on the wrist of our country to see parents with multiple degrees and yet retired at a government job with poor gratuity.
"School being scam" in Nigeria is as a result of governmental failure, which the Professors themselves support them.

[YabaLeftOnline @yabaleftonline]

"There’s some truth to ‘school na scam’. I’m doing better than all my lecturers. I met one of my professors months ago. I was in business class while he was in economy. Most wealthy men in this country didn’t even go to school" — Jim Iyke

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@eleniyanjb @Krawch______ @OtitoNosike Fact💯

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

This is more about him tho, he graduated with a second class lower from Unilag

[Gilmore🇳🇬 🇬🇧 @Gilmoorre]

That one dull student whose life turned around

[DRock 🇫🇷🇳🇬 @DRock_z_back]

I HATE FALSE NARRATIVES.

It is NOT ALWAYS TRUE that the DULL STUDENT later became RICH.

It is NOT ALWAYS TRUE that the BRILLIANT STUDENT later became POOR.

It is NOT ALWAYS TRUE that the FIRST-CLASS STUDENT is now begging for a job under the person who failed exams.

Many BRILLIANT STUDENTS got SCHOLARSHIPS.

Many moved ABROAD.

Many are working in SERIOUS INDUSTRIES.

Many are doing well quietly.

But because Nigeria has a BROKEN SYSTEM that underpays educated people, some people now use that DYSFUNCTION to MOCK EDUCATION.

That is WICKEDNESS.

And let us also be honest.

Not everyone who “made it” made it GENUINELY.

Some people did not become RICH because they were WISER than the BRILLIANT STUDENT.

Some entered FRAUD.

Some entered SHADY DEALS.

Some were just lucky not to be caught.

Then after making dirty money, they open one business to wash money.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@AnuriamI Some figure it out later on.
It all depends on the mindset.
I don't dispute intelligence tho.

[Patrik @Patrick0x934]

@maybedward @OtitoNosike Nope, true education doesn't get defeated.
It gives you exposure, in his own parlance he didn't buttress the point clearly.
It's the Nigerian system that doesn't reward education.
He was able to get his own exposure from the business men, missing out on figuring it out in school
