Immediately i saw indians i just laugh those people are toxic to work with. I have worked with them before so i understand their attitude and behaviours they are terrible. It's better to have a healthy metal heath than working for money in a toxic work place. 3 Likes |

This write up is a complete failure because a vote for Tinubu is a vote for Boko Haram. If you were still in Primary school when Shettima began funding Boko Haram, some of us were not. Tinubu is both physically and mentally Incapacitated to handle the affairs of Nigeria. Shettima will rule us and I won't sit down while a Terrorist becomes our defacto president God Forbid mainman7: 1 Like |

jonili:you better Start looking for better places and if you can't find at least resign first.most people make the mistake of tolerating or enduring narcissistic bosses.you have to understand that narcissist don't change and it's even worse when you have such as bosses.they are demon possessed and they don't even know it because they devise clever ways to oppress and bully those under them and do it in a non obvious way (covert narcissism) it only takes a discerning person to detect when they are projecting their nastiness on you Another irritating thing about them is their entitlement over you and their constant non stop nagging.how do you want to thrive or be productive in an environment where your boss is constantly complaining about everything.its irritating.one day you will be pushed to the wall.wait for the month to end , collect your money and bounce. One thing narcissistic bosses can't stand is for them not to have control over you again.you don't even have to Tell him that you want to resign.after collecting your salary just tell him to fvck off.e dey pain them.narcisst do not change so don't even bother 3 Likes |

jonili: These are the lies they want you to believe. I saw the topic and the first thought that came to mind was my experience in an Indian company. A multinational one for that matter and no matter how juicy the offer is, I'll never work for an Indian company again. Both in Nigeria and abroad, they are all the same. It's a culture and philosophy they all follow. I can write an epistle on the Indian way of managing people and business but I'll save that for later. Just as you explained, they thrive on squeezing out the most out of nothing and thrive on intimidation and suppression not just to Nigerian nationals but Indian nationals as well. I laugh when I see people sign up for an Indian coy because even though they smile, I know they're going through a lot. How did I manage? First I did my job and left no space for complaints or criticism. I know it's comparatively rough in the company but pending when a better opportunity comes, I'll focus on what I have in hand. Consequently, point 1 helped me preserve my self respect. I know what I possess and I know how old I am. I won't tolerate denigration in any way. The Indian bosses talked anyhow to anyone but not to me. I won't take it and I communicated that stance in non verbal personal and social characteristics. 3. Ask again and again about what is required of you before you do it. Get clarity from your boss. Let him know he's understood and you're not disrespectful or undermining him in any way. Infact help him achieve his targets and I tell you he will be your friend. The indians compete among themselves and feel like fish out of water when they are assigned roles in Nigeria. Help him perform and let him take the glory, don't complain or join other colleagues in gossip. He'll respect you for this. I must note however that you do not stoop to cheap eye service. 4. Constantly grind away at getting another job. Always apply and find a way out. Don't think of 'starting your own business' for now because I know your salary will be paltry. Just grind until you get another job. 5. Leave on a good note so they don't haunt you after you've left. Give him notice that you're leaving when things click. Don't spring surprise resignations. You will need some referees down the road. Ensure you can always call him later to be your ref. Be in good terms with your HR too. It helps. Good luck 3 Likes |

My friend's boss developed hatred for him the first week he resumed, he then believed when people says that some people would hate you for no reason... He started by asking him not to dress corporate to work, that it's a factory job and not bank's and he works in the office.. To fast forward the story. He started discrediting his work, telling the CEO that he's not doing his work well and the CEO doesn't call staff to ask or verify.. He was supposed to be confirmed, have a salary increase after 6 months but he'll be 2 years by end of this month and he's not been confirmed. His salary is less than 100k, he's not gone for casual leave cos he's not entitled for annual leave yet for 2 years now. Only medical leave when he was sick. So bro, we've been enduring because it's better than sitting our ass at home sometimes. But he said he's tired. He's resigning soon, except someone has a better advice for him. jonili: |

Wait until you jam ratfaced Nigerians who will pressure you join them to worship/visit marine spirits in forest annually. They call it office politics and use SUG politicking in Uni to launder their practices. |
