Doubleoh7: I can't agree more with your view. In particular, the one I have quoted. In 1989, I was desperate to leave my job and cross over to another industry. I had passed through tests at an institution and, when I visited their HR weeks later, was told I excelled. I was going to resign from my job but talked with my home fellowship leader. I tried my best to convince him that the new job was mine but he kept saying' Wait till you get the letter of offer'. Please imagine how shocked I was when, a couple of weeks later, the PA to the proprietor came to my office to show me the confidential report they had written in response to a request from the new company and had sent. We shouldn't be desperate and end up being exploited by employers. I'll say, like Deacon Dos said decades ago, don't resign from your job till you get the letter of offer from the new employer. Some things don't change. 3 Likes 1 Share |

slimjohn2k5: Why cant you leave the company? Did they invest anything on you or you collected a loan from them? If there commitment from the company to you, they can't tie you down with such useless rule. Nonsense. |

Focusmind: Certainly. Country peculiarities need to be taken into account. Fuel in the UK is between £1.10 to £1.40 per litre which is minimum over N700 per litre, so you can't expect UK salaries to be equivalent to Nigeria. 1 Like |

You should get an offer letter first before resigning from your present employment. People even use offer letters from competitors to negotiate pay raises and promotions with their employers. 2 Likes |

onward4life: Lolz.. I started my present job with all the aforementioned (MSc and work experience) with 60k, I worked 2yrs plus before they increased it to 78k.. Coupled with all manners of insult.. To the glory of God, I presently earn over 100k after 4years and about 10months of combining 3 or 4jobs to my present job description. To wake up in the morning to go to work, no dey sweet me most times but I can't quit.. You go manage the one wey you get till you find better one. I got tired of applying to jobs at some point because of their outrageous job requirements.. There was a job offer I saw requesting for a PhD holder of not more than 26yrs of age and 5yrs experience. 11 Likes 1 Share |

there are some things that some humans have not understand in life. you can't be bitter or frustrated about your current job while expecting something great to come forth. you must accept and appreciate what you are collecting now for another bigger one to come your way.. that's lesson about change of position. remember some people are looking for that your opportunity is like someone been bitter about drinking garri while others are looking for it to survive, it will never never come your way if you have been frustrated, u must learn to appreciates and accept it with good heart for a bigger ones to come. 3 Likes |

Floxytran: Very good advice. In countries where systems work..... before you even apply... you will know what the job requires.... and when given the begin date... that job is yours.... there are no surprise rules and conditions. In Nigeria... it is not so in general... so it is for you to protect your employment status. Forget about sending in resignation letter 30 days or whatever before. Like the above suggested..... go do your interviews.... tell your employer you are sick since most likely if you have keave... they will deny you... that you are showing signs of COVID-19 and will go do a test. Go begin your new job and after a week or so... if you like it... remain .... tell your former employer you don't know when you'll be back... then resign two weeks later. If you don't like the new job.... go take a COVID-19 test ... show up to resume work with your test results to let the boss know you are now COVID-19 free. Life goes on. Forget any job that the employer wants to make sure you left your job.... that is a big red flag........ he wants you to be at his mercy . 6 Likes |

FYI most of you, the guy isn't asking for advice as he has already made the mistake but just letting folks know, so they don't make same mistake. what i will say is never allow the anger or frustration you face in any company make you take rash decision cos you will always land in a worse situation than you where, but rather let it build you so you can face any challenges in life. no matter how difficult it may loook. 8 Likes |

As an employer let me just tell you that if you want to make more than N100k a month go and do your own business. This country is hard to operate in and you find obstructions at every point, from unknown taxes, to people raiding or even pulling down your offices and yes, bad and dishonest employees. You can be as nice as you like but you are always evil to workers that have a disconnect from their reality of being in a third world country. Instead of them to compare themselves and situations to other African countries or India at the most, they will be looking at the west. Is our money the same? So how do you think private business can provide what even the government cannot. If you have more sense get a civil service job and do other businesses to sustain you. That is the reality of a developing country not the fake life yahoo boys, and women prostituting themselves to government officials that are looting your money are showing you on social media. The other thing that you can do is farming. That is why allowing politicians to turn tribes against each other is madness they are getting their money from Central bank you are getting yours from a peaceful country.

This is why some of us decided to learn how to code. The wide array of options to choose from. Imagine a country that pays $20/hr paying not upto $2/hr because they are in Nigeria. Later they'll say Nigerian graduates are not employable. Rubbish! 1 Like |
