nyben4eva:tell him to quit and do his own business. life is too short to be unhappy and you dont want to miss the most important thing in life which is to see your kids growing. i will say dont quit but since he is a resourceful guy with his own business that can bring in 200k and with lots of room for improvement, i say quit ASAP 1 Like |

Nyben4eva, I'm guessing your friend works onshore/offshore on a rotation type job. Before he'll consider leaving his job, 1) His businesses must earn almost double what he gets on his monthly paid job. So here's what he's go to do: 2) Set a realistic timeframe to achieve goal in point 1 3) Periodically check if the timeframe's still valid 4) Take corrective actions if necessary depending on point 3 outcome by investing more into the biz, more oversight etc 5) If you're not on contract and maybe entitled to some kind of pension, and you haven't reached the required number of years, wait for it, else, peacefully leave the job. In the end, it's all about proper planning. 2 Likes |

hmmm..... I think your friend should : 1. Go for therapy 2. Take his entire family on a two week vacation outside the country for a start. If the company won't give him leave, then he should try taking this leave on medical grounds. 3. Start saving and if his wife is not working open a business for her and he should start a business now as well. And finally once both the business of his wife and himself is fairly stable, he should resign (having it in mind that he already owns a house and not a tenant anymore). Thanks. |

babyfaceafrica: it would have been 80-20 but Tradition and Culture in Nigeria is resistant to that idea.. only problem is when you are going through dire straits and need money to take care of your family who needs your 24/7.. everybody hands-off. It is only a phase in your working life.. typically from Analyst to Mid-level Manager.. from that point on you have people to delegate to and Executive matters to attend to. You can now structure your social and family life |

nyben4eva, I recommend your friend save up for a year before actually leaving his job and 6 month from now should have his biz fully self running. Also before leaving should at least ask for better working conditions or a transfer and see if it could be granted before calling it quits. |

Having worked for eight year, hopefuly, you should have a little untouched savings and by the side pp that brings you 200k monthly, good. How much committed 'not money' is your wife to you, children and home? If she is ha ome builder then good. What is your wife's take on the issue? What kind of school does your children attends? If you both can shed class, changing your chlldren ffrom private to public school is the best, shameful you might say, shameful of what if i may ask? But public schools are better. Where you are going is more paramount and not where are coming from. Is your wife prudent and not the asoebi type? Now, with or without your own house and with the business you already have on ground, i would say your family is very important. |

All what he is suffering there are people facing worse that are on 35k a month(that is if they don't deduct 1 to 2 weeks salary from it for crazy or no reason). Engineers, Graduates and even masters holders are doing it, of you cant cope and you have alternative then plan your resignation in such a way that you meet the condition of service of your company for leaving if its some months notice give them and if you can afford paying some months salary if its how your terms of service is then pay them. |

[quote author=MadCow1 know the feeling[/quote] The feel of joy is a personal thing that transcend money. For those who fail to understand the feeling of that man, well & good. By the time he made the money and eventually returned to a ruined children, wife, that damage cannot be healed by lots of cash. Let him resign and come "grow' with his family. After all, there is a job to fall back to with room for expansion. I am still a sailor. Back in the 1990s each time I returned home fm my voyages, my little boy will always tell me, " go to your house, this is my Mommy's house" each time he does something worth discipling him. To him I dont belong there. Much cash but a stranger in the home. So tell your friend to earn the fathership of his children. 1 Like |

My advice for him is to work for some months to enable him save some money, inother for him to have enough capital to start his bussiness.. |
