I'm a graduate learning Programming at the moment.

Since I can't learn coding on an empty stomach with no support from anywhere, I decided to take up a job as a classroom teacher in a primary school. The pay is #22,000 + lesson fee of #8,000 and I get extra #2,000 for the transportation cost of one of my pupils.

My monthly transportation cost is #8,000
Hence take monthly income is #22,000.

The perks of lesson notes and marking is killing me, besides shouting upandan in the classroom as I get home mostly exhausted.

Now I got a "connect" to drive for a car hailing service in Ilorin (like uber). According to the guy I spoke with, the pay is between #25,000 to #30,000 not yet sure, also there is a tendency that I may have to spend t-fare of #6,000 that is if I'm not allowed to take the vehicle to my place.
Which will bring the monthly down to #19,000 or #24,000

But I'd have time to rest and i won't get exhausted as usual

Hence my confusion. Should I go with the stressful job with a better pay or the less strenuous one with a lower pay. Also I'm considering the lifetime of the businesses due to the seasonal revenue of Ilorin, the school has a better chance of survival than the car hailing service job.

Please advise me.


I would advise you not to take this driving job because the pay is nothing to talk about. But instead why can't you opt in for uber in Lagos . they earn better than some white collar jobs. If i am to sacrifice my certificate for a job I would know that the pay is better off.

Sir, I humbly plead with you to remain in your teaching job.
Driving job will mess up your mind and thought process.
With the teaching, you are constantly developing your brain.
Sir, devote two hours daily to YouTube and within 6 months you are already professional in coding.
Going to a driving job will automatically lower your chances of better jobs in the future.
I will rather employ a teacher than a Driver.
Be wise, chose life.

Facidio:
Better stick with the teaching and try to complete ur coding lessons. Coding is the future. Being a driver will lower your self esteem bro. Trust me

I will rather employ a teacher than a Driver. Programmers debug for hours, I mean hours, some days, some weeks. I'm not talking about coding, just debugging ( looking for errors). And Java script will mess is head up. To be sincere he needs time for himself
Be wise, chose life.

I read Comment here, i realized most of you don't know programming at all. I

Teaching is a more respectable profession than being a driver, so no! My reason is that if you teach u are also developing yourself, u will be free from heavy abuse/insults most drivers get on daily basis, if not that the country is useless u can progress quick in case u wanna further studies if interested in full time lecturing job and its good u are learning programming too. Just teach one day God will uplift u forget the easy shortcut to success bro, its not what u think. For me, I would say do the teaching job and take up the driving job as part time, say Saturdays and Sundays or after school hours if u keen to double your hustle I know guys doing same and using it to pay their bills

Globalistic:
Your write up is very touching. I understand how you feel at the moment.

Let me respond by sharing my experience with you and others here.

I was born and raised in Calabar. I had my Primary, Secondary and Tertiary education in Calabar, Cross River State. Very popular in my area but still eating from hand to mouth.

In 2014, I took a bold step and relocated to Port Harcourt and squatted with my sister for six months. My very first month in PH, I took a teaching job with a salary of #22000 and few weeks later I got another teaching offer with a salary of #35000. If you were in my shoes, you would've gladly embraced #35000 salary right? But I took it to God in prayer and never had the conviction to go for #35000 salary. When my employer heard the rumour of my proposed new job, she never wanted loosing me for a close rival because both schools were in same area so she increased my salary by #3000 making it #25000 with abeg.

Six months later, I rented a single room; sharing bathroom and toilet with just one guy. My mission was to get a better job and meet personalities. I kept commiting my plans to God.

Please note that #35000 salary came with strict conditions while #25000 salary gave me liberty to submit CVs in different Organisations. I submitted CV in one multinational company and today, I can say is better than yesterday because I am no longer teaching.

Five years down the lane, I am happily married and blessed with a male child. Now live in a standard rented two bedroom flat, bought a plot of land and currently building.

So if you ask me? I will say "pray to God and believe Him". Then pick the driving job because driving will give you opportunity of meeting people as just one passenger connect can change your story.

Thank you

Compare the challenges first.
If you are a driver and you own the car , Yes , meaning it is your personal business. If you a driver but deliver money to the owner , no. If you are a teacher , meaning you work under someone, except you are the owner of the school. I have done both before. When I was a driver , the car was mine, when I was a teacher, I taught both adults and kids but I was working under someone who pays me what we all call salary. But been a driver pays more. You make more money from been a driver if the car is yours but been a teacher you can also make money but both have different challenges you must face. For me , you be the one to decide , any way can give you money . Alubarika lo se Pataki ju.
