Waiting to be posted for nysc,I have to do security guard in a communication company,but now paid 80k,should I continue considering the fact that I'm a graduat?? D job is demeaning


Yes oh! Please consider that fact very well, it's too demeaning for a graduate. Just resign and give one unemployed secondary school dropout or a complete illiterate the chance to make something out of that job. 80k for security guard would go a long way for that unemployed illiterate in this Buhari time.

Then you fit sidan for house with your "pride" sitting next to you, while waiting to go for your NYSC smiley

I got admission immediately after my sec sch. After service, I worked at a primary sch for a 10k job. Then got a job with land and survey but was let go sometime in 2015. I had already saved enough money. Now I have a fish farm,poultry farm and a bet9ja shop. I earn approximately 250-300 every week no jokes. Only my betshop gives me 180k-200k every week. I haven't looked for a job ever since. Not a millionaire yet but I will be in a giffy. God has been faithful!

[quote author=Sholaystar4me post=67347056]having bagged a degree in chemistry from one of the prestigious Uni in Naija with strong grade, couldn't secure a job for sometimes, so I started making and selling liquid soap, and paint (painted house too), after doing that for a year, I got a job, as a medical rep, and exactly after one year doing that, I left the shore of my fatherland. I am not where I wanna be but I looked back in time, and I glorify the Lord. With every step I take, I am closer to my goal.

I need just 5 people that wanna learn how to make soap, paint etc to mention me and drop their emails.

This is my very tiny way of giving back and thanking Allah

I am the CEO of Chichee Fashion Collections, you can check it out on instagram, I sell clothes, shoes, bags, for both male and female, my business has taken me places, just on Friday, i was with the real estate manager of Halliburton to give her a bag, I also deliver goods presently to 7 states in Nigeria presently, I have people who just call and say they want to help me Market my goods... I started with only handbags but God blessed me so much, just continue and watch God uplift you.. My husband resigned Some years back but it was this business that helped us.. I tell young women, bring something to the table when married, if not, yawa go gas.. Sorry for the long post. Thank you.
