A job seeker is meant to be on his or her
best behaviour when looking for a job,
especially during an interview. Even when
a job seeker finally gets the job, he or she
should still behave in a good way.

In a recent chats shared on Whatsapp, an
unidentified job seeker revealed how he/
she got a job that pays 250k per month
and how he lost the job almost
immediately.

According to the chat shared on Whatsapp, the job seeker was telling his friend on WhatsApp how an employer saw his resume and employed him as the company's designer. The employer also said that the company was going to pay
250k per month.

Immediately, the job seeker heard that his
salary was going to be 250,000 Naira, he
used a WhatsApp sticker of a male dwarf
dancing. He used the sticker to show how
excited he was, but the employer stopped
replying him and blocked him on
WhatsApp.

The job seeker lost a good paying job
because he could not control his
excitement.

This is wickedness of the highest order, if you ask me.

First, Since when did it become a crime or unethical to show excitement over a good news, especially in a country like ours where getting a job can be a miracle?

Secondly, It wasn't even public, it was a private conversation btw employee and the employer (HR) I guess..

It's really sad.

Useless click bait story

University should teach all this little ethics and not only focus on the core discipline

The guy might not have idea of how official communication are handled

Many don't know about dress code to work, ethics of certain jobs, decorum required and many more

michlins:
Nigeria employers feeling like gods. He was excited and danced which is normal human reaction to good news.

If only if there were enough jobs to go round. Nonsense

The job wasn't meant for him.

Mooh247:

you're right

So 250k now na well paying job. Smh �‍♂️

JohnGainsville:
That was an official chat. He should not have used such. That shows indiscipline

You can freely use stickers when you are chatting with a friend not when you are chatting with someone you just got to know or most especially on serious issues as this.

everyone deserves a second chance.

don't mind the idiots that are blaming the young man.

grafixdon:
Move on you'll get a better deal. You just dulged a bullet

No sir, it was the employer that dodged a bullet...a person like that will tivialize official communication with a client and end up making it seem like the company is not serious!

hope4nigeria:
probably the employer is fake, he's just doing stunts

You are right

grafixdon:
Move on you'll get a better deal. You just dulged a bullet

which useless bullet?

He may never see such again or take time..
Instead of u to caution him, u r saying what is not..

People are fond of using sticker when there is a serious issue at hand....

Exactly.. Thanks for educating the guy

Holluwhakemmy:

Yes it was meant for another serious person with good sense

Sified:
The employee get mind sha, sending sticker to someone you haven't gotten settled with.

I dey tell you

The dude was too dumb

Stallionhorse:
Nigerians like to learn the hard way.
I broke up with a girl cause she abbreviates most of her words.. Its so irritating to me so I broke up with her.. Communication and how you communicate matters.

make we hear words oga wey no dey abbreviate.

Eve for school, dem teach us how to abbreviate while writing a note.

Where is the friendship if you can easily break up with someone cos of abbreviations?

Don't repeat that communication thing again.

We have formal and informal communication methods. Must a relationship be formal?

You were too harsh on her and therefore she deserves better. She dodged a bullet.

I did the same thing with a girl I once dated. Abbreviations irritate the hell out of me.

matrix199:



250k per month is a bullet?

You obviously didn't see his point. He almost accepted a job with a toxic boss.

Tallesty1:
Yet you couldn't communicate that you want her to write her words in full

U dey mind am All this woke wannabe.
I call them Fake-woke

VladimirPutiin:
Just see how simple mistakes ruin someone.

You call it a "simple mistake" but that was a "stupid mistake"

You are very right sir. Even with my fellow friends when ever we chat I use full spellings and punctuation. I don't want to get used to this nonsense Nigerians do type when ever they text you. My friends often complain but I often tell them that, I'm used to it.

Cant laff o.

Exactly my thought! Why should a reasonable employer sack someone because of ordinary WhatsApp sticker? Like wtf?

If as an employer you're not comfortable with a person's style of communication (as it concerns official matters), isn't it proper to bring it to the person's notice? Why terminate his/employment on such grounds? Haha? These are the same sets of people that preach the leadership gospel bla bla bla. Shior!

A female subordinate once addressed me by my first name (as against my surname) without even adding the Mr. title. I just calmly explained to her that it's not appropriate to do so. We've not attained that level of 'closeness' that could warrant such. Besides, she's a lady and I'm a man, anybody could allude ugly meanings to such 'informality'. Immediately, she corrected herself and we became cool. If meself wan flex muscle, I could have written her up on it or reported to my superiors that she disrespected me. Or better still, make I claim 'harrassment'.

Nigerian bosses should be calming down abeg. We're humans not god.

PS- my erstwhile Director, we used to call her diety because of how she behaves. Not greeting her properly can get you sacked. Not adding 'Ma' to her name could get you a query. There was a time she queried me for not putting my hands behind my back while speaking to her.

decub:

I've made the mistake of using BCOB in formal correspondences (email though) a couple of times but I noticed the recipient once responded with the same abbreviation.

We actually get along as partners but his superiors are always copied in the mails. Sometimes I get carried away because of the ability to respond to official mails on the go.

BCOB and COB are allowed… if anyone tells you different then they’re ignorant as you are.

ASAP nko? Dem no dey use am for official mail??

I also use LOL , boss , bro , how far in some of my mails but that is reserved for people I’m familiar/ got a rapport with - I no send who dey in copy.

It’s 2022 not 1960

There are enough jobs.... he should send emoji when the next opportunity comes.

The employer is not feeling like god - I think he just likes appropriate behaviour, etiquette etc !!!

I also blame the employer for chatting with a prospective employee on Whatsapp - it is too casual and can lead to pedestrian behaviour.

Always use emails or Slack.

The employer probably felt insulted that the guy was referring to them as a clownish dwarf.

Maybe the employer na dwarf

How can a job seeker get sacked.

Social media has destroyed them.

Wickedness

It's not wickedness. It's foolishness on his part.

He probably used the display of "small stout" dancing suggestively and sticking out his tongue like a gay.

He deserves the sack because it's so irritating and irresponsible.

Everything matters in Nigeria.
You just v to be corporate as you can when applying for jobs.
Only in Nigeria ll a person apply as Yoruba Language teacher and still be expected to wear suit.
If such person wear agbada or buba n sokoto, he/she ll be cynosure of all eyes.
