I know someone who ate the age of 36 is still working under someone,like cooking,cleaning,running errands for them etc etc,
but his dream is to set up his own bizzness but the person he is working under promises to help him set up,just a mouth promise no written or signed contract that says he will really do.

Now this friend is asking me for advice on what he should do ,should he keep on hoping his "oga" will help him set up or not ? but a man at 36yrs should be his own man i told him instead of someone else houseboy.

What advice would u give to him if he was your friend ?

Na 36 you see wey you dey shout?

Its sad o but there are older people. . . .

How long has he worked for them?

He has to be determined to take the first step and that'll will be to Quit. . . . . . .

And them set his priorities . . . . .which could range from going back to school or learning a trade . . . . .

Whatever the case might be . . . .I don't think its too late for him. . . . .

english people work as house help
even at an old age.
what matters is to be happy where ever you are
coz i you are not, the only option is to go away and look for something else.

True, if you don't believe, ask Jeeves .

wetin be difference between the person and Abudu or Adamu wey at 67 dey open gate for person wey him pikin old pass?!

s***t happens. Not everyone is born with a silver spoon and not all would die comfortable.

awww. . dem don switch d bobo's head wit an unfortunate person's head
sad thing . . . doesnt he have children??

36 kei? no be house boy again na house man,it might just be his calling.

Hmm house help thats an occupation

There's neither shame, embarrassment nor disgrace in what this fellow is doing. It's legal, honest, gainful work. And, having done it as long as he has, it's clearly something that he does well.

Yes, we'd all like to be in Bill Gates' position, monetarily. We'd all like to be in 50 Cents' position in terms of popularity. We'd all like to be in Barack Obama's position power-wise. In the less exhalted world, however, as long as we are reasonably happy and fulfilled, and are able to keep our needs met, then we might wish to be more appreciative of our more humble means.

Am not say it is not an honest job,it just that the man in question is complaining that his "oga" treat him like shit sometimes even though he says his job is assisting his boos in the office,and he sleeps with him and cook too for him.

Well u shldnt advice ur frnd 2 quit coz some pple are made2 be poor and all but atleast he's making an honest living.

[size=13pt]ROTFLMFAO that was so mean [/size]

the first step is to ask this 36yr old houseboy if he is really ready for change, because "change is like a doubled edged sword"
he has to decide to take the bold step
+ he needs to confront his master on the issue, explaining to him that he is not getting any younger
+ also he has to be ready to tow his own path if the master does not "play ball"
also tell him not to ever lose hope, his mates are also out trying hard to make a living

@Poster , God will intervene in his life , It's not funny arrall
