WoodcrestMayor:Thank you! Some people fail to distinguish between bankers and bank workers. A guy will wear his suit and tie, call himself a banker, get to work, take of his suit and enter his booth and collect money, count and stamp. Bros... you are a bank worker.

I've discovered that a lot of things that people call stress are actually birthed as a result of the type of lifestyle they live. There is no work that won't naturally demand a lot from you, but how you manage your little time will go a long way to determine if you will go through your job healthy or worn out. Bank job is stressful but people are in it and are living a happy and fulfilled life. It's not about what your job demands from you, it's about how you manage and respond to those demands. Some bankers close work around 6-7pm or thereabout but spend the next hours in bar and outdoor until the wee hours of the night. Why won't you be stressed? If you learn how to master your time and be in control of your 24hrs and only do things that ADDS VALUE to your future, by the grace of God you will stand anything that your job throws at you. But if you dabble into the general notion that a particular job is bad and so on.... then get ready to experience that imagination you have bought from others. 4 Likes |

mhhhhhnnn. Be ready to compromise or stand still. if you are in marketing or customer base n account officer ( especially when given target ), you will definitely get sex proposals. if you allow 1, just know that many will follow, from bank staffs to customers. Especially if 1 super rich account holder get interest in you, then, even the bank go dey beg you to compromise ......... |

bxcode: You have it wrong. Bank work IS stressful! Physically and emotionally. |
Re: What Do I Need To Know As An Aspiring Banker! by bxcode(m): 3:38pm On Mar 31, 2016 |
aameyah:Well that's your opinion but I wouldn't agree with you or else we both will be wrong. If you believe that bank work is stressful both physically and emotionally, then I can guarantee you that you will be stressed both physically and emotionally, it's your choice. But for me my job is a blessing and a means to put my God given talent into practice. It's demanding but it ain't robbing me of my emotions and physical well being. |

bxcode: Not all banks and units are the same. So you can't use the way your shoe fits to describe where it's pinching another person.... |
Re: What Do I Need To Know As An Aspiring Banker! by bxcode(m): 6:22pm On Mar 31, 2016 |
aameyah:Am not trying to do that ma'am, I totally agree that units are different but I have been on jobs before that I hated and it sapped me all round, then I got to asking myself what's really wrong. Changed job but the same stress persisted until I discovered that my job is not my problem but my attitude to my job and the fact that I magnified the bad more than the good. I worked on my inside and it totally changed everything. Ma irrespective of the dept or nature of job you are into, you can decide the way that you view your job and what you focus more on, it's a choice. I can guarantee you that 99.9% of an average job in this country is stressful and energy sapping, it's not only baking job. It's just that people have magnified their bad experiences as a result of their attitude and so on. I have friends who are marketers that have terrible bosses but it dosent bother them a bit and they love their job. While some others in that same dept can't wait for Fridays to come every week. Though I agree that some job are simply inhumane and pure evil. |

bxcode: Many bankers started their career with a 100% attitude. They swore they were going to give the job their all. But there is no way you can keep up the smile when you are at work 7-9, with at most a 30 minute break after 4 to eat, only to continue your transactions right until you home. You go home, sleep and then the same thing happens next day. Weekends when you should rest, you are called for street mapping, regulatisation or MPR. Or you decide to go file all the documents you've been piling since you can't file daily due to the workload. And one boss will still be screaming at you everyday, accusing you of not working and threatening you with sack inspite of your best efforts. I know there are people who love their bank jobs. But if you work under the above conditions, you won't love it. And it won't be your fault. |

Bro...permit to as...what unit are you in? You sound like you are in a unit that is in sync with your dreams and career goals/path. Happiness on the job stems mainly from job satisfaction.If you did IT/Finance/HR and you are put in these units,there is a tendency u'll be happier than an IT graduate who is put in customer service or marketing and has chosen to remain in order to pay bills at the end of the month. Job satisfaction is key!!! bxcode: |
