It is true that First bank laid off a lot of their staff but it is a lot of top management staff and not secretaries.

It is confirmed that First Bank of Nigeria Plc has sacked all their secretries in all their branches. The reason is that they are of no use to the bank. But why this time? Why were they employed at the first place?
You can confirmed from any First Bank Staff.

It's not surprising because the Secretaries do absolutely nothing. They don't even travel with the managers for meetings.

Sometime in 2014, GTBANK sacked all its switchboard (Telephone) operators and handed over their functions to the Secretaries. Till date that seem like the only specified job function the Secretaries have.

The truth is that the effect will be harsh on the affected and their dependants but the banks can be better without them.

The only problem I have with the move is, they should redeploy those with relevant qualifications to other departments instead of sending them away and employing new hands.

We need to intensify our prayers for our dear country before it gets out of hand.

Even First bank, the issue is becoming serious and interesting.

Let our President do something and reduce travelling and manage the economy that needs urgent attention.

This is not time for politics please let us join hands to save our nation, APC cant do it alone.

May God Bless my country Nigeria.

Hmmm good one!

Many more bank jobs to be lost. Just go in some banks banking hall and you will see how the new rule of compulsory atm card issuance to customers and non payment of money below a certain amount has rendered many bank workers redundant

ONLY THOSE INITIATED CAN JOIN IN THE CHANTS OF THE SPIRITS

But the secretaries are for the branch managers. Even when the branch managers go on leave and the HBO Takes over the secretaries work with the HBOs. To me I do not see why they are not important. They are personal assistants and more to the branch managers. I have seen some of them produce slides for meetings, inspections etc in a few minutes. While I have also seen some LAZY. But with the present economic problems we will see more reasons for laying off people.
Perhaps they will get the branch managers virtual personal assistants.

Why wouldn't they contemplate on reducing salaries instead of sacking workers? The economy is tensed we understand, but sacking workers will only make it worse. Reduce salaries and promise to increase it when things get better. Na wa o!

We told them APC has no plans for Nigeria .... They said Buhari was the Messiah
We told that the lack of economic direction portrays doom for the economy .... They said Sai Buhari
We told them that Buhari declaring to the world that all Nigerians were corrupt would result in loss of investor confidence .... They called us wailers
We told them that delaying the appointment of ministers for 6 months will create a gap in the economy that cannot be easily closed .... They said Buhari can handle it all alone and does not need ministers
We told them that the financial policies of the APC govt was scaring investors and stifling investment ... they said Nigeria can do without the investors

Today, They are losing their jobs, losing their businesses, paying double for power supply, facing true hard times .....

There are 3 Rs that must take place in the life of every employee

1. Retrenchment - One day your employer will lay you off, it doesn't matter how good you are. Once they can find someone who can offer the same service you do and is willing to earn less, you are fired.

2. Resignation - There comes a time in your life you will resign from your job because you don't like what you earn, or tired of leaving home very early, or tired of doing the same thing over and over again. Probably you want to start up your business, whatever the reason you will leave the job.

3. Retirement - You can't work forever in that company, a day of retirement is coming.

In all these Rs, do you want to wait for any of this to happen before you take your Plan B serious?

Winter is coming and may it not catch you unawares.

Please stop posting this type of insulting job vacancies. It is better you get an IT student who will be content with getting 20k as allowance than trying to get a trained secretary for same amount.
