Hmmmmm got sacked for the silliest reason...refusing to dance to a secular song during training ...

I got employed in a private school on Monday... education plus international school @11 prefab road GRA phase3 Portharcourt .. 70k/month... Got sacked on Wednesday... What a Mirage... What a test... The real Job is coming soonest.

I am positive about this because I stood for my Kingdom... I believe my body is the temple of God... I can't dance to songs that don't glorify God, the name of JESUS or at least have morally gud lyrics...

Maybe it was just an interface... Lol
I can't compromise my principles because of 70k...I have value... I am worth far more than that... A Gas Engineer with a 2.1 that has God on the inside... I can make more than that even without being employed.. GOD CAN STILL GIVE ME MY LNG JOB THIS MONTH... 1.2M/month... Lol

Please be true to ur beliefs... Never bend because of money... Don't compromise for any reason... Remember Daniel and Joseph in the bible

U will soon hear a better news abt me... I am an inspiration to my world


Tell us exactly what happened cos I don't believe the impression ur trying to give, u mean to say u just sat down and watched others dance and u were sent home ? Did u have a look of scorn n hatred on ur face towards others dancing? Did u talk back rudely or inappropriately to management when one of them approached u cheerfully asking u to join others dance? What really transpired? Give details please. And y is it obvious ur on a smear campaign? Education plus international abi? 11 prefab road gra port harcourt abi? Well done... Even in churches not everyone dances. Op give details abeg. Remember it was an occasion of celebrating for a successful training session and at that that point u alone was disqualified? Or the shame of saying what really happened after telling all u got a job only to face all to say u weren't successful is it what is pushing u to tear down another mans establishment? A Christian you really are... Well done. Keep it up.. Never you compromise your faith. Give details still... And if in ur details it happened that u were sitting on ur own jejely watching and smiling at others dancing and not looking at them with scorn and body language not of that regarding those dancing in hatred and contempt or if u were approached by management and asked y u don't want to dance and you gave a silly response making school management look like people from hell out to get graduates into hell.... Hmmm if in your details none of these or similar things happened then I say d school badt gawn! Then I say well done really and keep the faith flying... Otherwise you get paid back in ur own coin... Well am glad u dropped the school name and address and u should know better y I say I am.. I await your details to this story

....are u a lawyer... Lol... My rights were infringed... Lemme give u details as if u are my lawyer... Lol... In between sessions we do go for break.... So just before the 2nd session, we were told to dance to a secular music 'shake body'... So I refused to dance because I don't dance to secular songs... The other staffs were told to sit down, so I was the only one left....( NOTE: i love big occasions like this so that I can sell my philosophy abt good music... I believe our children should be encouraged to listen n dance to good music with morally sound lyrics....)... SO I requested for a different song to be played for me to dance...I told them I don't dance to secular songs POLITELY... But the coordinator walked me out angrily.... They called me to the administrator's office and told me to go home...I apologized for disobeying the order, but I told them why I refused to dance... They asked me my religion, I told them am a Christian... They asked me the church I attend, I told them DOMINIONCITY.... They told me to go home, that I will hear from them....

Later that day I got a call that I havbn dismissed on the premise that I am not a good team player... Is it fair?
So must I go against my moral principles because I want to be a good team player?

Weldone my sister... U can see how people get employed n lose their rights just because of peanuts called salary... Hmm... Ordinary 20k/month can make some persons deny Christ

Hmmmm. You were employed in a pry sch right? I've not listened to "shake body" very well but I believe the lyrics are clean. U should have just shuffled ur feet and sat down. Simple then next time u stay clear of sch parties.

.... No o.. It is both primary n secondary... I don't pretend...if the same thing happens 10times in my life, I will still be firm on my principles even though am paid 1billion naira.. Lol...soon my name will be on record, "Boma Berepiki, the only man in history that got sacked for not dancing to a secular song"... Itx a movement for Gospel music n morally good songs... and am nt scared of persecution/victimization.... They make me stronger n more famous... There's no Army General without a scar...all these make my testimony sweeter... Lol... Fanx tho for the advice... I appreciate

private skools their wahala, when u work for them they think they own ur personal life. ppl are saying op shld say what really happened because they dont have experience in private skools. even if u danced, tomorow they will push the goal post further.... working in most private skools is like selling ur soul for 20k, 25k, 30k, ur own is even 70k. During my spell in a private skool, i realised my self and just one day after work i just decided nt to continue. i only called the principal d nxt day,to inform. since then i now do what i love and work in an organised firm with beta experience and pay. Am also an engineer. trust me op, u will smile tomorrow
Very true. I worked with one for 7 months for N12k a month. I was employed as a economics teacher for ss2 & 3 to work from 7:30 am to 2:30 pm but ended up taking up mathematics jss1 to sss3,account for ss1-ss3,plus economics ss1-ss3,work from 7am to 7pm.mehn,I nearly died.
