OP, YOU HAD JUST ONE JOB TO DO!!!!!

Security business is a serious business.

This reminds me of those Happy Boys that were lackadaisical at their duty posts and unfortunate Nigerians pitied them and gave them foreign scholarships.

I'm very happy that the previous commenters are not justifying the Op's attitude. Thankfully, Nigeria will be great again if we condemn wrong actions.

I'm not sure you understood the job description before picking it up. How can you say you are doing your job diligently and the same time leave your duty post. It doesn't make sense. You were not trained before getting the job. I once worked as a security man to a popular bishop in Edo State. The man really liked me because of how I took the job seriously. The day I left the job, the second day I drove to the premises in my father's clean car and they were shocked I was from a decent family. They probably thought I was hungry. Learn from this experience. You were wrong 100%. If I were your oga I will not pay the 3 weeks because I will claim you had probably been leaving your duty post for other side hustle.

Ha. You would not pay for the 3 weeks? Please he has to pay. I worked for it.

The answer you seek is "what is your own with their fight?".

What if he actually employs you out of the nightmare he had about this same enemy?

He might just have come home from premonitions that the same enemy could have hoodwink his security guard and then tries to drop some stuff into the compound when the security man is busy.

That aside, someone loyal to him in the neighborhood might have called his attention to what's going on. Hence you are bursted.

I picked up the gate man job ending of last month out of no other better options at the moment and seeing what economic hardship was making me pass through, especially waking up with no hope of where food is going to come from, make i no go steal, God abeg.

I have been doing the job well. Yesterday, while strolling around the area, I heard one man saying he is looking for someone to cut grasses in his compound. Being something I can do to collect the money to help myself as i was hungry and peniless, I met the man and told him i can do the work and we agreed on N15k.

So as my oga went to work, i rushed down to do the work. While I was on it, i dont know what brought my oga back to the house and he didnt see me at the post.

He called me and asked me where i am. I rushed down to the house. I told him i got a small contract of 15k to cut grass for someone in the neighbourhood.

The man got so angry on why I left his duty post to go do another job. Worse was that the person i did the job for was more like his enemy, as i later learnt they've not been in good terms.

He sacked me instantly. I begged this man as a human being to please forgive but he refused to consider me again. He even said, "go before you go and collect poison from my enemy to come and kill me".

Please what is my business with whatever fight the two of them are fighting?

That was how I lost the small job i just got 3 weeks ago and now back with nothing. He should have paid me for the 3 weeks right away but he didnt, rather he said i will find a way to pay you for the services so far.

Please, the country is already very hard and all I needed was something that could give me immediate money to survive on first.

Sad how struggling citizens are being badly treated everyday even while legitimately hustling for survival. How he will pay me for the 3 weeks, he didn't say it.

It's painful but it is not the end of the world.

I will make it too. Amen.

It shall never be well with hunger, agent of poverty.
stand strong bro buh as a sharp guy you for inform your oga about your doings before anything and even if he declined just sub contract the job to an aboki and get a cut, half bread doings. Hard luck sha. Sha go finish the job hold that 15k fess

That’s right…

But you should have done the other job during your off duty time though!

He can't trust u, you left his property unsecured because of 15k

This person has said it all. Let's leave the issue they have going between them aside but for him not to meet you at your duty post is an offence. Only if you know how these elites reason.


You now even made a mistake of the truth you told him. You could have simply told him something else.

Technically you were the architect of your retrenchment.

How would a gateman abandon his duty post and get his duty done?
That's dereliction of duty and as such is a gross misconduct which attracts serious punishment.

We must endeavor to help ourselves to be happy, compliant and goal oriented at all times.

I trust you have learned your lesson as I hope you will be gainfully employed in no distant time.

Op, life just threw you an opportunity. Maybe you should look at starting a landscaping business. It would cost you almost nothing… imagine getting 2 landscaping gigs a week at 15k. That’s 120k a month. I believe that’s above what you would have been paid at the gate keeping job. It’s a sad experience but it might be a blessing in disguise.

Like you said, you too go make am. Just hustle correct and apply wisdom and prayers.

Blessings my guy.

You're wrong and deserved to be sacked, but a smart boss would've retained you. He was being too emotional rather than rational.

That you told him an honest truth is a very rare quality. All you need is guidance for better performance. You flawed like we all do... kindly keep your integrity flying.

OP, what as happened has happened, I don't want to put petrol to the fire you are receiving through the comments above.

Solutions:
Go and meet the person that gave you grass to cut, asked for his phone number and tell him you are available anytime he need such services.

Also tell him what happened to you after you collected grass cutting job for him,

Tell him how your formal boss sack you because he's not in good term with him and see it as danger if he continued working with him.

Asked the man if he can help you with any job, tell him you can do any job

Your need to make a quick 15k is completely justifiable. It may even be a test from your oga and his so called enemy. And your oga' s reaction is also completely justifiable as well.
