Hi,

Thank you for making out time to view my thread. I'm hoping I can get an advice from you.

I'm a 26 Years. I work in a company that pays me 85K NGN monthly.

The salary isn't paying my bills in any way, the company isn't productive, I feel stuck and limited each time I go to work. Also, the environment is toxic with gossips, cold wars, etc.

I've been applying for jobs elsewhere but I keep getting rejected. I've adjusted my CV several times but still the same.

I'm considering resigning even though I don't have another job offer yet but I fear my debts. I have some side hustles I use to support my monthly earnings but I fear it may not be enough to pay my debts monthly and fend for myself, siblings, and family generally.

The whole thing is making me lack motivation but I still try to be up for my family.

I want to travel out of the country and search for better opportunities but my resources are limited at the moment.

I have some skillsets, I'm considering venturing into entrepreneurship but I don't have the required capital to get started

I don't know what to do.

Kindly advise me on what to do. I'd appreciate it.

Start Blogging Business And Thank Me Later

schools and society dont teach the children that the work place and its vicious social dynamics is not for everybody.

Some people thrive in conflict environment and are bored without it.
For others it kills their soul to persistently remain in conflict environment .

Cause everywhere you see that cold war, that tension, those fake smiles etc, the hate in that place is food for demons.
There more demons feeding on souls in those jobs by day, than in the darkest places on earth at night.

In a world where a bloody potentially deadly activity like boxing can be much sort after entertainment sport, dont assume they know what they are doing when they invite everybody to those jobs, its not for everybody.

The system is not for everybody, and those who dont belong in the system, but think its normal have miserable lives indeed.

You are not just competing against flesh and blood in those jobs, but powers and principalities, best to choose sports that suit your type of soul.

Your mindset bro.

Work on it.

I was in a similar scenario November 2014. Sacked from a 60k monthly outsourced bank job.

I didn't start business with any form of capital. Not even a dime.

Today, I pay myself 300k minimum monthly.

I am my own Boss. I intend to triple my income starting from December.

I changed my mindset. You too can.

Boss, show me the way too sir cry

ive been in yoir shoes before. I was in your shoes earlier this yeah but I resigned anyway and focused on my skill; Digital marketing. Before I resigned I was doing a side hustle that paid 35k monthly. I lived on that for 5months before I got a full time job that paid me 150k, I got cheated by the boss and I designed again. I got another that paid me 120k. Mind you, I am the first born and have siblings and family to support too. See, you're young and you still have life ahead of you and we'll all die eventually so why play safe? Do what you have to do to make your life better for the future, you'll only be inconvenienced for the mean time but you'll be fine eventually. DO what's best for you fam.

Gonna advise you to get the fuckkk out of that job not because of the gossip and cold wars though

Because that salary is damnnn small...they mange am ...they manage am na so bros ororo take turn 55 years inside 85 thousand naira job.....just quit....don't be scared because people are saying there is no Job outside if you quit....that particular mantra has rendered people useless in life.....immediately they hear that rubbish...they no longer have the balls to quit
Not knowing that when one door of Happiness closes another one is immediately opened for us but most times we keep on looking at the closed door or rather at the door that is about to close to the extent that we do not realise the one opened for us
oga, your assertion shows delusion. Don't smoke weed before advising people. Didn't you see where he said he's been applying other jobs and he's getting rejected? Is there any office place without what he says is driving him to unproductivity?

He does not have something to fall back on and you're advising him to quit this one. You want this guy to die of depression. Somebody that cannot stand the pressure at the office can't stand being without salary in a month, no matter how small. The moment the people he's owing start calling him, he'd start to go mad and blame people like you.

Tell him to get something to fall back on before quitting. Not quitting before finding another job

Stop speaking out of ignorance bro. Everything slawormiir said is 100% correct.

Don't advise people to wait until they get a better job b4 they move. That's the common sayings around. But it's a fuckiing limiting mindset. It leaves you stuck on 1 level for many years.

This happened to a friend, he got a steady paying job at a reputable company, though the salary was small he enabled him to get by. After watching too many motivational clips, he quit for lesser pay, but more time when he has no side hustle. Two months after he was terminated, he owes over seven loan apps as speak.

This is both funny and sad.
Does he still watch the videos?

I know exactly how it feels to be in this kinda toxic environment. I'm in a similar situation as yours but I've resolved to build a hedge and stay strong. If you havent gotten another job dont resign. Guard your emotional health seriously too, ok

Re: I Need Your Advice by Enibiokanmi: 9:33pm On Nov 07, 2021
Everyone on the forum start giving advise without probing further why this person want to quit his job because of gossip and unproductivity.

Did anyone ask this guy what the gossip in his place of work is all about?

What is the cause of unproductivity and is he part of the problem?

Was the gossip about him and is he part of the problem?

When all these questions are answered, then it gives us a better idea on how to advise him.

If he was getting all the advise without saying a simple thank you to all those who wish him well, then calling him an ingrate might not be far from the truth.

Fulaniherdmens:
You should be grateful and mind your business at work place. Grumbling and Rumbling won't give you an edge to a better opportunity, seize the one you have and make use of it. Don't forget to get earphone to block your ears from gossips at work place.
You can throw your CV open on job portal sites. Gradually okay.
