Problem of small organisations, if you work for Dangote for eg, where will you see him to thank him for paying you.

It's african belief of gratitude.
The same that says you should respect elders, even when your right is being trampled on.

This conversation sounds like a small company or a one man business.

I don't know about the necessity however, I sent thank you/appreciation mails to my CEO when our salaries did not change due the first recession under Baba Buhari and this pandemic.

It is supposed to be a win win relationship. So yes, both should say thank you

Thanks for the responses so far
I got my first ever salary last month (newly employed as the manager)

Others were paid by the cashier, my MD transferred mine via bank

Though he added 3k

Next day he visited, he asked if I received my salary, I answered yes

And thanked him

Just worried if he will term it that am ungrateful

Thanking him is okay. You thanked him for the extra 3k which is good.

Very right if you do, it shows you appreciate your Boss.

Not compulsory though, cause your salary is your right too

We're sentimental about a lot of things.

This is why employers especially one man business owners always expect employees to bow down and worship after receiving their hard earned salary sometimes even after delayed payment.

Worse is when others are thanking and you don't, you will become an enemy to the boss. cheesy


you correct.......... cool

I once worked in a company.... As soon as I received my alert I went to thank my boss...he said I should thank God and not him...I instantly hated him
My friends who know me well know that if I ever thank you, don't say thank God... Its like telling me that it's because of God you helped me and not the other way round ....I also noticed that people always saying thank God not me...always say it unsmiling and frowning like they were forced to help you.

Saying thank you is just part of courtesy, it doesn't mean anything. One can even say thank you to his/her employee for a job well done,

WoundedLamb:
You must be talking about a petty business where cash is handed over to the employee by the business owner at the end of a period. If that's the case, saying 'thanks' is only polite and not necessarily appreciation. Even if the it's the secretary that gives me the cash, I'd still say 'thanks'.

However, salary payment does not always involve the employer and the employee physically coming together to even necessitate any form of conversation. The common thing is that everyone gets alert on a particular day of the month and life goes on.

Your submission can work in a structured organization, no matter how small.

But where you receive your pay by cash, you might end up saying ''I'm sorry'' instead of ''thank you'' by the time salary is delayed.

When my former boss give me salary she will always be expecting me to say " thank you ma for the salary" grin some women self....

And she has never add anything to the salary even when i say a million thanks grin

My dear just say it from your heart to fulfill all righteousness. grin

Female bosses in a one-man private firm are usually the worst thing to happen to a human being.

No need to say too much.

Yes na.

You think it's easy to pay someone?

Do you know how many excuses the boss could have come up with just to SUSPEND/DELAY paying you the salary?

A little gratitude will go a long way in showing that you appreciate.

If I had a boss, I would thank him whenever he pays me.

I also thank my employees whenever I pay them.

Yes! I mean it.

It's my choice.

If you don't say thanks to your boss after receiving your pay, you commit no o crime. It's your choice too.

Absolutely not!

He should thank you for your time and effort because the salary an employer pays can never be enough

I recall some years back when i and 5 other consultants received our paycheck. One came and said we should contribute to buy a watch for the boss. I basically told him if he want to lick the guys ass...he should feel free to do it alone!! I am not contributing for any bullsh*t

More recently, a driver came to tell me thank you when he got paid, i told him not to do it again!

Any boss who demands or expect thanks is an egotistical bastard!
