Can you teach ur kinda investment I have d money but don’t know what to invest on
Same thing with me right now, I have an idle 1million naira in one of my account yet don't know what lucrative business to invest in. I have realized that, just like a job opportunity, business too requires experience to be successful in it.

Nice!.... if I were your bf... you be still drawing salary 75K salary without even seeing the work place. Employers do such because they get away with it.
@ comments.... is it people just strongly believe they must be an employee?... regardless of pay? 20K salary?... is soooo many things one can do to earn more than that a month. Pride is a disease.
You're very correct.
Pride is a big disease especially for graduates.
For example, when I was an undergraduate do u know that i I have worked with a bike and saves 2k daily from it, after removing fuel and food money o..that was 60k a month. I bought a Toyota Sienna after 18months working as an okoda man that people usually looks down upon. Okay, After nysc I decided to move to Lagos, my first job was in an hotel, 20k a month, a very big hotel o. That's N650 daily. One year on, I wasn't able to rent even a one room apartment in Lagos State.

I wish the youths can just bury their pride of being a university graduate and work for a living for once; all these so called employers will hold a meeting and think again.

True life story....

Honeywell in Ikeja that year.
Got the call for the interview a day before.
10am the next morning at Ikeja.
Was at the airport in Abuja at around 5am.
Thought I had time to spare.
Planned to pick up my suit at dad's house in Ikotun.
I was dead wrong.
Flight was delayed for about 2 hours after parting with 23k.
Eventually arrived Ikeja airport at around 11am.
I can't possibly attend the interview in Jeans and T shirt.
Entered a shop around computer village to buy a shirt.
Tucked into my Jeans and had a long laugh at myself.
Took okada to the venue.
It took several appeals to get in at the gate.
How can you come to an interview in Jeans and tshirt, they asked.
All eyes were on me at the reception.
Everyone else had nice suits and shiny shoes.
My name was called, I entered the room.
And that was the end of the interview for everyone else.
The vice chairman, the National sales manager, the brand marketing manager and human resources manager all seated in suits.
Why on hell did you come in Jeans and tshirt the vice chairman asked will a smiling face.
Told him my plight and off we go.
.........
30 minutes into the interview
They other guys waiting to be called must be fuming badly by now.

......meanwhile, the interview had turned to a friend's catchup.
Myself and the vice chairman as the old friends that just met, and the other guys as viewers. Lol

Talked about Arsenal, Arsene Wenger's stinginess, etc

At a point the man barked at the 3 managers to get a note and write as I was spewing some great ideas.( all glory to God).

I'll continue later ....

After about one and half hours, I was ushered into a room.
Entertained with freshly baked biscuits and sprite.
The HR manager asked about my current annual package.
Came back 30 minutes later with appointment letter.
Told me he'll give me time to read through and come back in 30 minutes.
Looked at the bottom of the paper, the difference with my current pay was 350k.
Had to move to lagos from Abuja for a sales job.
No way .. I cant do it

HR manager came back with 2 bags of semo and 1 bag of wheat flour.
Please when leaving, go to the accounts department and collect 50k for your tfare.

He wanted me to sign the acceptance immediately but I told him I need time to think before signing.

I asked him what the 350k - special duty allowance meant.
He never gave a direct answer.

He excused himself, and the national sales manager walked in.
I asked him the same question, got a different answer.

Na who dem wan scam with audio allowance?
Me?.... lailai.

I will sign, scan and send or to your email this evening I told the HR manager when he came back.

I never did.....

He called me taya....

Next time forged a certificate for them, that omit one of ur name or use one name like that.

2, U should have scan ur certificate and print it out in coloured form, it will look like original, u will laminate it, and give them then u keep the original. For ur self.

No problem in this world that don't have solution.

Only for deep thinker

How are you different from the employer when you encourage him to commit fraud?

You talk as if you don't know how the country is.

Since I've been advertising my skincare products here, how many of you have patronized me?

Even my Toiletries and laundry products, how many did you PM me for? And you tell me to stop the one that is still fetching me something and come and be at the mercy of people who don't patronize.
Or you think doing biz is easy?...

God that giveth increase, will increase me soon. I believe.

My dear, don't be discouraged.
The problem with online marketing of products and services is that one can't differentiate between a genuine products seller and an imposter aka internet fraudster. Many peeps don't even have time to verify who's real or not, when they can easily get d same product u re advertising for sale from a shop close to them. I will advise you find a way to get a shop, get engaged in physical sales of your products, the sky is your limit. Cheers!

Job at a small guest house, 4pm- 8am...
Job description; Receptionist, room steward, cleaner , laundry man and security and the salary was not even up to 20k..... I ran for my dear life before I come die before my time .

Some employers are just wicked, most of them take advantage of the high rate of unemployment in the country

to either maltreat or underpay staff since they know that they'll always be someone else who's desperate for the job.
This is what I usually tell my friends
