DESIGNING WITH MIRRORS.

How to Use Mirrors to Enhance Your Space.

Apart from checking your outfits, Mirrors offer a wonderful versatile design feature.

They add instant glamor and interest while also increasing natural light and maximizing the sense of space in your home.
1. Mirror as wall décor.

To decorate a room with a mirror, treat it like a piece of art.
A mirror's reflection needs to be carefully considered.
The reflection will, in effect become a piece of art in itself.
2. Mirrored Accessories.

Mirrored furniture, such as a mirrored dresser, mirrored bed headrest or bedside table and coffee table can add a touch of elegance and glamour to a room.

Young Kenyan job seekers... A thread on DON'Ts, following my week evaluating job applications at VeryGoodCVs ... I guess no one is telling you these things... So here you go... I welcome other hiring managers to add to these, please...

#IkoKaziKE
It's "I'm looking for a job" not "Am looking for a job."

The first = "John is looking for a job" while the second = "Is looking for a job". The subject of your sentence is missing when it starts with "Am" and that looks bad esp. if you are applying for a writing job.
Don't write "I'm looking forward to your positive response.". That equals serving someone food and saying, "Make sure you say it's delicious." Presumptuous, right?

Crops For Profitable Farming

THREAD

Thinking of farming but don't know which crop to focus on?

Many farmers get tied to nonprofitable crops with little to write home about.
Others end up doing crops that require volume to make reasonable margins.

Try the following crops👇
Bambara Nuts (Bande, or tsibande or Njugu Mawe)
These nuts are highly nutritious and they cost a hand in the market.
Currently one tin of 2kgs is costing ksh. 1000 in most parts. 1kg at 450 to 500.
They require good farm management, weeding n covering them with soil. Yields high.
These nuts do well in most altitudes but low and medium altitudes are the best.
Read soil is the perfect for them. Plant one per hole at 10cm from hole to hole and 1F row to row. Best time is in September during short rains. Be keen with rodents. Top dress with NPK 17:17:17

I don't know how open minded you all are, but when they lied #HudumaNamba meant Huduma Bora, I imagined they were gonna give us a platform with All Services, Compliant, Efficient & Transparent. Here is a concept of what my lazy ass thought HudumaNamba would be #Ikokazi Citizen TV ImageImageImageImage
I imagined a platform (ussd, app, PWA) that would protect Kenyans from conmen & cartels. Car dealers, greenhouse farming, real estate, saccos are awash with conmen preying on Kenyans. A Public Contracts Management system would spell doom for the conmen. Goldenscape #ikokazi ImageImageImageImage
e.g Goldenscape, with Public contracts, investors sign their contracts on the Huduma app, all documents are available on their profile. Investors can file complaints from the platform & attach documents. No need walking around with those brown envelopes & long lines at DCI ImageImageImageImage

Dear Kenyan Job Seekers - can we talk about your applications? Because I’m deeply disturbed. We put out a call for an internship position a few weeks ago, including on #IkoKaziKe. Good news - we got LOADS of applications. For a small company 61 interested applicants was positive.
Then we started going through them 😖. Let’s just say I’m shocked at the number of young Kenyans under the impression that they have seriously applied for a job from some of the applications we got. If you are a job hunter, take a moment to read my reflection as an employer.
Before sending an application *READ* the entire job description not just key words. We were offering a creative writing internship not a one in finance, IT, sales or food and nutrition. An accountant who wants to write can apply, but one looking to upskill in ICT? That isn’t us!

How a colleague was conned.

Cc #IkoKaziKe 🇰🇪

[Corporate names withheld]

THREAD
My colleague has been desperately looking for a job elsewhere just to improve her career portfolio and also she felt the need to change her work environment.
She was referred to a certain company by one of her friends to send her CV via email. She was super excited and I wished her all the best during her application.

I want to vent. This thing has been itching me for sometime now. It's now catalysed by these 2 hashtags #IkoKaziKe and #InternsNotBeastsOfBurden

THREAD
I read through a lot of tweets about this hashtag #InternsNotBeastsOfBurden and I would like to say some of you are either ignorant af or just want to comment to fit in.
For you to understand fully what this means, you need to first understand what the term "UNEMPLOYMENT " really means. Unemployment includes even those working but cannot afford the basic things in life and 2 beers every weekend is not a basic necessity.
