TastyTuoyo:
stop all this lamenting it will get you no where

what did you study?

GET UP! if you head cant get you a job your hand will

go and learn something tailoring, welding,shoe -making etc

That's the Issue....go back and learn tailoring and Welding or pick up a trade....then the years of schooling is indeed wasted.....

The question is: what else would you have done?

The calculations/equations that goes on in a yahoo boys brain/physical activity(without science man) before he even gets a pay day can never be even compared to a graduate regular job. Its not a job for dullards also...too bad the society is degrading and we all think its a joke.

Alvanify:
I know how you feel brother, what you just lamented is reality.
This is a country where even yahoo boy has a brighter future than a graduate.
Check it.

forix4u:
Sometimes I want to regret going to school because arguably I still fail to see the reasons or benefits of going to school. Yesterday a friend of mine whose parents took him to learn electrical on cars after primary school, went to withdraw 1.5m to purchase a jeep. His story building is near completion, married and blessed with 2 wonderful kids. We all know what it takes to have a story building in Lagos. This my friend barely reads a simple sentence.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not envious of him rather I'm happy but today, I'd to take a seat and remembered how he convinced me to join him in learning this same handiwork that has made him the prospective landlord and car owner that he's today while I chose to go to school to acquire a certificate only to have graduated and served fathers land without a job to even make boast of. I also have some friends who dropped after secondary school, today they are all married and living good...

It's kinda annoying and I don't know if to say regrettable for going to school because it has not even paid off. The annoying aspect self is most jobs today can't even foot one's expenses and bills due to the hash economy and almost every job you get today is contract base, so one begins to think what is the purpose of spending several years reading without any tangible benefit awaiting stresslessly.

Thank you my brother. I always emphatically state that if what one can become in life is a tailor, a welder, a truck pusher, a danfo driver/conductor etc, then there was obviously no need of going to the university. That he could have become without spending resources such as years, money, psychology (in terms of cracking one's brain reading) and others when he could've simply picked up one of those jobs and start doing it right away whether he went to primary and secondary or not.

I work in Oil and Gas. Maths and Statistics is a good course to study. They are few in Nigeria which makes them to get job easily. And if u r planning to leave the shores of Nigeria, be rest assured u will hit it big time.

They are in accounts and planning depts.

I do not mean to sound condescending, but if you spent 4-5 years in a University despite hearing stories of the situation in the labour market; I don't understand why you are regretting your actions now.

I believe you were hopeful that you would achieve something great with your degree after leaving school, well now that you're out you shouldn't lose hope. The struggles might be hard at first, but with determination and conscious efforts, you'll get through.

However, if you decide that regret is what you would engage yourself in now instead of taking the bull by the horn; then I have no pity for you.

You make it seem like everyone who goes to learn a trade makes it big. There is something called destiny, believing in it while doing the best you possible can would help you live a life with less regret.

Seems like you just know how to hit below the belt very well?

No mercy at all.
