I feel sorry for your loss, it's not easy to manage without a job in this harsh economy...
What's important is that you need to find something with which you can use to get by for now. If you're in a student's environment (any of the higher institutions there in Enugu) is it possible to you to start doing something like writing Project, proposals, term papers etc for students

It's not much but you can start from somewhere, at least you're good at writing. Why not harness the skill before a better job comes around.

I wish you the best.
Cheers

At the emboldened, here it is insubordination when you take a day off or half a day off without informing the management.

But for something as flimsy as to go get lunch? Which wouldn't take more than 5mins..

And you walk up to managers office, to tell him? The manager will think you are daft.

I didn't want to involve the colleague who covered for me cos he'd be sacked too. And his condition would be worse than mine, he has wife and children.

Not a good place to work then. When you go for a break your desk/duty should be empty. No one should cover for someone who went for a break because it's a lunch break and you are not expected to be on break and still be working.

Unless the time you went wasn't the approved time.

I wasn't able to decode most of the requirements.

Is there a way you can help me understand better

That kind place where you go for break and the desk is empty is proper office environment. This is more like a motor park where buses depart every now and then. To get lunch in that kind of condition go hard without having someone cover for you which is what he did. The place is not just the right place to work or management was looking for flimsy excuses to sack in order to downsize like OP rightly said.

[quote author=LeoFish92 post=86786658]So, about a year and three months ago, I went for the Peace mass recruitment exercise. And I duly shared my experiences.

https://www.nairaland.com/4793178/experience-peace-group-recruitment-exercise.


Well, I feel I should update the thread by adding that I've lost that job.

And quite recently so. Happened today!

Well, A little stroll down memory lane.

After that recruitment, which the company tagged: "Peace Executive Trainee", the Executive in the tag had we that were successful drooling with glee. We had lofty hopes of working in well-tiled, well-spaced, air-conditioned offices, as per the graduates we are.

Well, reality hit us hard when employment letters were dished out and we found out that we were having pipe dreams.

We were all posted to the different Peace parks nationwide to serve as ticket sellers and bus loaders.

Yours sincerely swallowed pride, rolled up his sleeves, and started 'agbero work'.

Though we worked for 12-13 hours everyday, the 15 months I worked as a loader were very exciting, utterly absorbing, - and quite intriguing - I must add.

Then, I was still with my parents, so I saved a lot, but lateness to work made me have issues with my manager. I must be at work before 5.30am (I was robbed twice while on my way to work,so, to avoid those hoodlums, lateness was inevitable)

I knew I'd move out from my parents house at some point but I always wanted to have multiple streams of income before that.

Well, the manager of my single stream of income mandated I rent an apartment close to office or risk some punitive measures. I did, and luckily got an apartment.

A room self-con in Enugu city costs an arm and a leg, I spent half a million to rent and furnish it. (had to buy properties cos at 27, man ain't getting no younger)

That was virtually all I had in my account, and after 3 months of moving in, the company sacked me!

And it's even more painful cos, I know nothing about the crime. It's akin to a stray bullet hitting a crippled beggar.

So, here I am, with a beautifully-furnished apartment, not up to 100k in my account, and no job!


Well, I want to appreciate Peace mass transit for the time I had with them. I saw it all there in the park, all manner of people, in fact, I could write an exposé on that, that would be for another day.
With my experience there, there's no Public service job I can't handle.

Tomorrow, I'll wake up to a new reality. From being so busy to being so idle. I'm terrified! Inside life, in the voice of one weed-smoking naija rapper


What next from here? I don't even know. In fact, I'm already having symptoms of malaria.



Can you reach me on 07036193819 .thanks

Cheer up brotherly. Stay positive las las you'll realize with glee that this had to happen so you can live your dream.

LeoFish92:


As a loader, you'd go home daily with at least, 1500.

And for someone like me who neither drinks (I practice absolute teetotalism) nor a womanizer, saving was very easy for me.

Lol, it’s a software developer opening
more so a senior software developer opening, and for those qualifications listed, a company like Andela would pay about 800k as basic.

But I’m sure wages in Enugu are generally lower

You’ll be fine in the end, you are a good writer, have proper diction, good behavioral and work ethics, and now more than a years worth of experience, surely you’ll be valuable to any employer, in fact you don’t realize how much your ability to effectively communicate is already a plus. two pluses rather

This is coming from someone who’s inept at communicating


Another thing that caught my attention is your ability to save, and you cited the fact that you don’t womanize or smoke as your primary reason


I don’t womanize or smoke either, but food and data mark attendance on my account every month
