I remembered telling my former MD I am relishing my duties/roles after one month of taking the job but fast forward 3 months, I remembered vividly telling same MD that I am tired of the 'work' because of poor enumeration. |

Work for passion in Nigeria as an employee and your employer keep taking you for granted and continually exploit you. Work for the money and have the passion for what you do and you keep on with the highest bidder as you change employer at will. Ultimately, work for yourselg and you see the passion increase as you are in control of your life and time, you see the money rolling in with the grace of God. 2 Likes |

Everyone works fo both passion and money. If u say u work for passion: why do u complain as an ngo? If u say money: y don't u rubbish ur work or ur work place n see if u wil b paid for rather fired! Hence; for both! |

Passion can open "bigger doors" for you and bigger things. If you work for the money it's easy to get frustrated when you are under financial pressure and money is lacking. Unfortunately, passion is overlooked by bosses in Nig hence people are discouraged. I love what I do and do it passionately and lots of clients have always complimented me. One day, an impressed client informed me of an opening in his office but I was still on contract so I couldn't take it. 2 yrs later I felt it was time to move so, I contacted him just in case he might know someone who had a space but not expecting his office to still have an opening. He replied that, though they didn't have an opening but I should email my cv to his official email add. and stay in touch. 2 months later, I was invited for an interview in his company and a week later I was offered the job. It's the best job I have had in 16yrs of my professional career. It's 3x the worth of my last job. It's been almost 2yrs now and this month I won the employee of the month award. Passion can take you far and money will eventually come along wella. 3 Likes |

In my line of work, no one enjoys being surrounded by ocean water and having to stay out there away from family and friends alike for weeks on end. It's mentally challenging because everyday is a boring work routine with very little space for comfort and all what not, And keeping recent happenings in the O and G industry in mind (MILITANCY), you'd understand why i work for the money instead of being passionate about my job! |

I work just for the money 100%. I dont really love my Job but I do it very well because it pays the bills. Na the job wey My hand fit grab na him I dey do. My passion would have been to teach in a secondary school but teaching job in Nigeria would not put the type of food I want to eat on my table. |

When you work with passion and enjoy what you are doing... You get money in return. |

For naija, you need to work PASSIONately for money, else you'll end up being a brokeass. Employers will see you as a certified mumu and a tireless workhorse without compensating you in any reasonable way. 1 Like |

Africanman123:if you work for passion..employers will take every advantage of you..use u and at the end u gain nothing..Nigeria is the only country where they expect you to work with passion but they are never ready to recognize your hard work and extra hours they make you put to your job..if you complain they tag you a rebel.. 1 Like |

TheSociopath: Maybe you are not in Nigeria. By the time you don't have money to do a deal and u stay without a club in Nigeria ...After you clock 40years that's when u'll know that the passion stuff doesn't work in Nigeria. And that's why we have Doctors as Bankers,Engineers as Accountants in Nigeria. That passion stuff only works in the Western world. 1 Like |

croSStodds:Well I wouldn't want to judge that your friend considering all the stress he might have been through to get the degree especially If he passed through a fed Uni. He might have the passion but when he considers the trouble he went through he might be wondering If it was worth it. For me Passion and money have to work hand in hand since i have hopes of having my own family in the nearest future. |

I work as an event decorator at ABEOKUTA nd I can categorically tell u I work for passion,2 me money is not every thing in life, there will come a time later on in d future wherre u will av all d money in d world bt dre will still b a gap in ur life "fulfillment" r u fulfilled? R u happy in d inner most part of ur heart, did u gather everything u av doing wat u love? Dis nd many more questions will arise wen dat time comes......bt wen u work for d passion u won't work for money;money will work for u,cos no matter hw little u r given u will b satisfied nd it will b enouf for u to do all u want to do.... Am not despising d fact dat money is not important,bt am saying its not d most essential........Working for d money is a different thing entirely from working for passion.....cos when u work for money u r only after d money,so its no ur headache if wat u r doing is well done or not. Bt wen u work for d passion,u perfect dat which u do, nd I assure u x10 of wat u r supposed to b paid will b given to u when u work PASSIONATELY.................nd I Quote "do what u love, not love what u do" 2 Likes |

There is no way you won't work because of the two. it is just that one must come first. I believe passion should come first when it comes to work because it is the passion you have that would propel you to work with diligence and much dedication that will bring about promotion and more money. 1 Like |

Every single time I step into my office and I look at the myriad of buttons in front of me, I remind myself I do this not for the money but because this is who I am, this is what I love doing. Even if I wasn't paid, I'd still do it anyway. #ProudAviator 3 Likes |
