I wish i could get this your courage. Though most times it comes and most times it doesn't, just like now. I was doing pretty well for myself saving 90k via street every month after nysc. I have already made up my mind not to work for anyone for a pay less than 100k and would prefer fg work..... Not untill a friend called telling me if i would like to apply for where she works, i asked for the pay, she said 97k... Ah ah, 97k isn't far from 100k.... Na so i applied, wasn't focus in the street again during the process... After applying they pushed me to their other department, where they start graduates as intern with 60k for four months, which if you succeed they make you manager and pay you up the 97k.... This october is the last month, to pay the complete 60k sef na war, and i have not being able to save 30k throughout my stay here and have lost my phone and laptop in the process..... Just so confused right now

So painful, may you recover all that you've lost..

My current job pays $5k in a month. So I have no reason not to put my all and it is a remote job too.
What kind of job bro?

3 hours. I had fibbed on my CV and got an IT job, I knew very little about. I started in the morning and after being introduced to the team, I was giving some tasks to review. It all looked like greek to me so at lunch time I just got up and never went back! smiley

How did you pass through interview??

Demn, you are hilarious dude

Hey guys so how long have you spent at a job before calling it a quit or probably disengaged?

So this year I have been quite funny with jobs and whatnot

So the first job I did this year, I didn't spend up to 2 months before leaving, the job was too stressful for me and I couldn't cope.

The second I spent a month and half then I left because the pay wasn't encouraging

The third one though sounded interesting, and I was like oh finally a management position. So after almost three months of processing my application and several documents submitted.. I was finally called to resume but I left after the first two days.
The job wasn't for me, it looked good on the outside but something else on the inside, to me it was slavery.

So I have decided to leave anything that has to do with job alone.. I'm doing well for myself grin

So guys let's have your views.

That must be Bismack Ventures, I guess. Iya herself! it is not fair to owe workers salary.

I worked with someone who deducts workers salary monthly. I was with him for 10 months. My salary was not deducted once. Though, he wasn't a nice person, I didnt give him a reason to deduct my salary. I went the extra mile through out my stay.

The brother of your ex boss is amazing. I know 3 staff that he bought cars for. In my view, he is a good man. At times, there are two sides to every story.

2 weeks as a cleaner at the MM international airport.
Salary per month is 12K but the yeye woman no pay me my money which is half.
The job was not bad but the boss was a useless woman.
Her brother is a pastor and both of them uses their staffs like slaves and they called themselves pastors.

I can’t remember the name of the company but they use green uniform

8 months .. though it wasn't a full time job. It was a volunteer offer in an NGO. I liked the idea of going out and people greeting me welcome when I returned, I could buy whatever I needed , took care of my mum, had self confidence.
Wish to be like that again..I am tired of being jobless..it's depressing . I need it now more than ever.. someone help me please

I registered with blue arrow agency in uk in 2006, I got a job to work at a restaurant for 6 hours daily. I worked only 30 mins (apparently I couldn’t use the dish washer) and I was fired. I was so frustrated that year.

Exactly one month.... I found out that my employer was tricky and probably wasn't gonna pay so I siphoned as much money I could without him knowing and when I completed one month the guy started coming up with excuses of how his money was missing but yet couldn't tell me how the money was missing since my records were intact and complete.

I just quit the job.

You are a thief.

I agree.... If you've worked in a place and the employer looks for excuses to sack you without pay then you will understand why I did what I had to do.
The funny thing is that what I took was peanuts compared to what he was owing me which he refused to pay.

Some employers in this country are devil incarnates... Pray you never meet any.

6 hours.

I got a job, calculated the cost of working there and decided it was not worth it and besides that, they reduced the pay from what I was told earlier.

I currently work in a bakery I was desperate when I took the job because I need money to sort my final year project in school. I work basically 24 hrs everyday cos I usually sleep there and it's only on Monday that I don't work because I told them I'm a student and I'll need to see my project supervisor in school.. I'm damn tired of the work because I don't even have time for myself but wetin man wan do I just want to gather little money to pay my school fees and get a small laptop so I can learn a digital skill..I know it will take a while for me to achieve this because the pay is 30k per month but I can't wait to leave I'm tired
