Leave with out looking back if you have what will survive u for at least 6 months or even 3 months.

I always say this never accept anything less than what you expect for yourself.

Your back up plans are good, build your followership and keep honing your skills.

Note you will have bad days while on your own but if what motivates you is bigger than your fears, you will succeed.

The latter is a Digital / Online Skill and Online Skill is Bae....there is no better feeling of knowing you alone control your time, resources and earings without restrictions.
With time you'll build yourself to financial Sufficiency.

Do you know you can even start earning @least $50 - $100 monthly before you are done with the UI/UX training or learning process? It's called Drop-servicing !!!

Wow...sick for 4yrs? Show proof of this and ill mentor you to earn @least $5daily or $150 monthly as long as you have access to Internet + browsing gadgets....then you pay me what ever you deem fit for the earning knowledge.

Best case scenario, learn Copywriting

With that skill, you can generate money for yourself anywhere. It is a core service that almost every other jobs rely on in one way or the other, if you know your onions well

If you start it now, by the time December will reach you should have made your first million writing for foreign brands and earning in dollars. Just practicing at least an hour everyday will get you to the top in no time

But it's all dependent on how interested you are and how committed you want to be. And the good part is that you don't need to have a B.Sc certificate and such to be good at it

My two cents

Only you want to learn barbing, UI/UX, app development, etc. Bros calm down and choose one before your brain overheat and you break down mentally.

That said, you need to leave that work urgently and give that useless man a piece of your mind before you do.

May God help you.

Thanks for your advice... I've not conclude yet on what to do but I just love UI/UX.. God bless you

@OP, it appears as though you are not really settled on WHAT YOU WANT to do.

I see that you have your mind on so many things already.

I advise that you choose ONE and give yourself time to learn and grow through it. If you are looking for IMMEDIATE results, you may not get it with the attitude of not focusing.

Give yourself time to learn and grow. While at it, you may try your hands on things that can give you some income e.g. Affiliate Marketing. I am willing to walk you through this. You could send a PM.
. Thanks so much for advise.. I'll definitely send you PM, God bless you!

Or suggest for you some profitable skills.

Please suggest a profitable skills.

Can you learn the UI/UX while still working with your Boss?

If yes,and you don't have a good capital, liquidity and support system, I'll advise you to stay there,learn the skill, get a better job and leave your Boss.


But if you can't stay there whilst learning the new skill, you can move out and continue your lessons away from him.

Well, I work from 8-6PM but now he has stylishly shift it to 8PM I work on Saturdays too..

The chance of me learning the skill while working is slim even tho I've videos materials and Laptop but I've planned to engage myself on Sundays.

I'm leaving the work this December to focus more on the skill.

Any digital skill you possessed is marketable world wide...if it IT you are on the right track!
Be consistent
Patient
And gather all the necessary information in that field ...in the next five months, if you are also building your portfolio towards a nich trust me you will start removing the L in Learning and start using the remaining letters.
Good luck Bro. Being a domestic staff is a crucible where leaders are refined
You will know exactly how human should behave
What true loyalty is ...
Self denial
Total humility
How to manage things...
You will deep sense of responsibility required to manage anything on earth...
If you can manage a man for a year am sure you will manage anything.
Just be truthful, don't be lazy, do what is required of you at the right time, don't be be arrogant, to try to fill among, don't be intimidated, see it as a phase.
God bless your journey bro
And
...don't forget the lessons lernt. And don't adopt a servitude mentality ...

Thanks for the kind words!

My dear I was in your shoes some years back! I left too, but in my case I didn't have a plan at all. I was soo tired and depressed. Very very toxic place. I will not advice anyone in a toxic workplace to stay. When I left, i didnt know what to do, I used that time to pray like my life depended on it. i really needed a breakthrough. I'm in a much better place now. Thanks be to God.

Wow, Sorry for passing through that phase... I'm happy for you!

Since you have passion for barbing, go into it, do you can have a steady income. Toxic bosses can cause you a lot of problem, both health, psychological, emotional and reduce your self esteem. Try and be your own boss.
I won't lie you this has increase my low self esteem, I hardly talk because I am an extreme introvert, well reversed..., But this Man keep taking all the chances ��

Please teach me that criptocurrency and forex.
Me I have been sick for 4 years I don't go out no means of getting money
But I have a good phone.
I will appreciate it if u will help me by teaching me crypto and forex

I can't teach you FX because I've blown 3 account already.. but crypto, I don't have the chance... I'm so sorry �

I don't know how fast you can learn but I learn crypto by just googling questions and I'm applying it everyday.. Don't let anybody chop your money Google and YouTube is your best bet!

Did you not hear of forex and cryptocurrency and how u would become very rich if you go into them? Same way u heard of graphics, UI/UX and programming etc. You are after Money.u shouldn't have anything to do with learning cos it takes time. Look for a business or simple skill u can learn in 3weeks eg driving, barbing, phone and PC repair etc.

Technically, everybody is after money and that's the main reasons why I learn FX and Crypto... If I had known the energy I use learning FX I would've use it learning other things, nevertheless FX has help me pick some nice Token that have great Use case.. for now I just want to learn a skill. Driving is not bad either!

Op I will tell you the truth

Toxic bosses kill self confidence, God given ingenuity and creativity

LEAVE BEFORE ALL YOUR POTENTIALS ARE KILLED.its not about having a job when you lack peace,rest of mind and job security.everyday you're never appreciated instead cursed at.that is not a job.if your uncle feels you're lazy,Na him sabi.his opinion of you doesn't determine your destination

Don't let any narcissistic boss that derive irritating joy in killing your spirit.na depression and suicidal tendencies you dey play with o

Continue developing your skills
Thanks Bro, there's a particular day that I looked at myself, shake my head and Ive this feelings talking to me that I might not make it in life, because I've look so less of myself and it's look like I'll not be useful in the society!
