Good for d couple.There's opportunity. here.

Did you even read the post at all?

Even by UK standards she was just getting by on 1800 pounds monthly. So don't do the direct conversion.

She sacrificed for love but harsh realities have reconfigured her oblongata.

Naija is tough and no food for uninventive man for Lagos. You either shape up or ship out.

Nigeria needs creativity now and not some kind of employee situation.

No lamentation would change that.

slam7000:


£1800 is the starting salary of most graduates and depending on area of residence, she can do well on that amount and still have some to keep in her savings. On the average, she earns better than most people.

yeyerolling:
Minimum wage in the uk is around 7 pounds per hour. She was probably a cleaner or cashier. Meaning she had no beta skill. No wonder she took 27k . doubt this story abeg. No uk returnee wud take 27k job.

rusher14:


My point is, she was on an average salary and lifestyle in UK,based on this tale that may be totally untrue.

slam7000:


But she wasn’t on average salary na. £12 per hour is not average anywhere in the uk by any standard. Even health care support work with nhsp would have to work really hard to get that.

Did you read it is after tax?

Where I live is irrelevant to this matter.

She earns less than the average salary.

If you were trying to get a job in the UK as a foreigner, for jobs on the shortage list, NHS say, you must earn above 30K or something in that region.

I’ll say it again. The era of E go better is dead and gone. I don’t see any reason why a lady would put her career on hold because of a man. A woman knows the man that is worth waiting for, not all the ones talking about useless potential(this table has most of nairaland boys on it).
