You ares quiet oh.. what's definition of agreement? And we're all these deductions stated during you resumption or joining the school ? And also if you know fully well you didn't fall for all the listed deductions, jejejly request for your full.payment. no one tries this nonsense with me cos if i decide to work with you, I am 100% compliant to all your policies, especially when it involves deductions I complied with all Policies of Educational standards.. I was never informed , All other staff stated it's an hidden policy. Some people are naturally evil, I have made up my mind to stay clear off, I dont want to think about it anymore. |

So, I finished My Youth Service with Joy and gladness, and was back home till I get a good paying job, since I studied Metalogy/Civil Enginnering in the University..
But guy, there is no course like "Metalogy" & "Enginnering" It's shocking that a so-called graduate is unable to properly spell or quote the correct name of a course he spent nothing less than 5 years studying☹️☹️☹️ ✔️ Metallurgy ✔️Civil Engineering I wonder the state polytechnic you attended, because a university graduate can't write like this. 2 Likes |

As a Sure guy with Parly (Certificate) I was very much confident of getting a nice paying job, So I started my Journey as a Job Seeker..
1st year, 2nd year, went by, and still nothing, So i decided to digress into something else for the meantime, everyone knows how Nigeria is .
I decided to pop into Teaching, atleast 'head still fresh' I got this job, in a Primary school, the Headmistress and I agreed on a 30,000 monthly salary... I was happy though .
I resumed work, truth be told it was fun, but Sour at last.. I never knew this Madam was in for a trick..
Things were going well oo! Firstly, Late to work a day - 5,000 deducted Not being audible enough in the classroom - 3,000 deduction Pupils not able to grab the day's work - 2,000 deducted Failure to mark pupils note/ asessment/ assignment - 5,000 deduction Few pupils failing Test, Oral questions and Examination - 5,000 deduction....
I was called for my salary, then Mrs. Headmistress brought out my file of report and defects , i was shocked when she tabled a sum of 15,000 naira as my salary for the month and Said "Welcome" I couldn't Fanthom where I was but i gathered myself and said "Thank you ma"
According to my fellow staff, this was the hidden principle in The School, people's salaries were deducted to nothing ...
I went home and slept throughout the week ..
Now Do you think I continue in this Mess or Venture into frying of akara and become self employed..
what are your thoughts, help a brother!! Bros I think you made some early wrong decisions. With your civil engineering, you could have joined mason people and build your experience. With your metallurgical engineering, you could have joined local welders to build experiences. If you stay in area like PH and you're hard working and yet applying your academics to the job, it wouldn't take long and you shine. I studied Electrical Engineering and I did my best to associate myself with electricians, many of whom their could hardly write their names. I learnt from them and naturally grew. Today, I am a Supervisor, more like a manager. I hardly touch cables these days. 3 Likes |

what are your thoughts, help a brother!! Good Evening to you. When taking up a work position whether paid or voluntary at your interview ask questions so there are no surprises. Perhaps if you made an attempt to be at work on time and mark pupils scripts when due then your 10k wouldn’t be deducted.Others like them failing are beyond your control if you are sincere you are doing your best. Teaching isn’t a simple job and not everyone has the gift especially if you don’t have a B.Ed or NCE so are not properly trained to do this job.You should not “pop” into a position. My thoughts to help you is to say it boils down to your work ethics and lack of discipline as even in Akara selling you have to start early in the mornings and evening to target commuters so how would you succeed at that?. Revaluate yourself and go into something that isn’t time sensitive like POS Business which you can start with little capital. |

You're still asking. I finished NYSC in August. My boyfriend got me a shop The money I saved from allowee and the one my parents and brother gave me, I put everything into fabric selling business.
My boyfriend also finished NYSC with me. He studied architecture, he already learnt it before going to higher institution, so he's very very very good at it. His PPA boss gave him all his projects to supervise, to draw and even attend board meeting on a federal government project for the man. Long story short, after NYSC, no job He applied for job, none is forthcoming One day he told me he wants to be selling beans, I said no way, after calculating the cost and capital, I said moimoi elewe (leaf moimoi) is better. We started looking for space by main road, we no see, everyone was saying there's no space. I convinced him to come and use the front of my shop I learned how to wrap moimoi in leaves from my mum when I was very young. That's how we started, we spent about 35k getting big pot, tire rim coal pot, turning stick, portion spoon, ororo, maggi, leaves, half bag of charcoal etc Now we're making sales, even though it's not that huge but alhamdulilah. Sometimes when it's 6pm and we still have plenty moimoi, I'll take it to the main junction of the express in a cooler and shout to passersby to come and buy moimoi elewe. I've only sold fabrics twice but we sell moimoi everyday. Oga was feeling ashamed when he first told me about it. But I didn't see anything to be ashamed of coz he isn't lazy and he's a really good guy So, uncle you can use morning and afternoon to learn the tech stuff someone told you here Then in the afternoon -evening, fry Akara and sell, and make sure you keep money everyday. If you make 2k, keep 1k, if you make 3k, keep 2k as savings. The remaining ones you didn't put in savings is your running capital, it should be use in getting what you need for business e.g more beans or more ororo when you have small left, or charcoal. And don't spend the profits for your personal bills for like 2 weeks so you don't cripple the business from start. That means you should get foodstuffs at home while getting what you need to start up the business and don't go on buying excessive things or things that are not really needed. Buying in few quantities, you can later get a place where you can buy stuffs at cheaper rate. May God be with us all and bless our hustle. You can call me sisi oni moimoi or sisi alaso Great advice there especially your last paragraph, same mindset I have and working on, relocated recently and about to start a business which will likely kickoff this month... Your last paragraph says it all and same should also applies to salary earners, most times I don't even spend my salary at all because I already budgeted money I will spend for the next few months from previous salaries and that is how I have been able to save for this business and of course with support from parents. 1 Like |
