Another tout that thinks running a business is only about subtracting cost from profit and payimg workers whatever you like....

its not by force to own business...if your business has not matured beyond paying a full graduate with responsibilities 10-15k for 30days work...then that business is doing more than it should, has too many staff than it should or isnt just ready to be an employer of labour

.if your business has not matured....do it yourself with your family...your justification for paying a graduate 10k-15k month is a bunch of nonsense....its exploitation...
dont sugarcoat it cost of running business and how much you make..

Das1mama:
Alright sir i will definitely appreciate thanks,I'm in kogi state precisely Lokoja the state capital.

Trojan8:


Are you dumb? So a graduate asking for more than $25 a month is sense of entitlement? Just look at the way you reason. Nothing in this world would make me do this kind of job.

DaInferno:
make he d pay am 100k?

U dn run business before so?
Tax, fuel/diesel, light bill and other expenses...anyway

DaInferno:
more and more analysis, op said he was deliberating on which salary structure to take and here you're analysing...still no talk how much make he d pay am. You wanna paint a facade that's in your head. Talking about sane country and stuff that dont apply in the reality we are right now. If you like, make dem pay you 2million naira a month, who no want dey honest no go dey honest.
We live in a country where people are barely trynna make it to the next day, but you say people shouldn't employ people till they have the full capacity to, Really? You need to understand the job ain't by force.

Bro, I say How much make e d pay am?!

Good evening to all great men, women, boys and girls in Nairaland.
without wasting your precious time i will cut the long story short; as the topic stated, I just got a job in a pure water factory as a Driver, after much interaction and oral interview with the manager of the factory and gave me two options to accept either he will be paying me 15k per month or in every sale I made per bag that i will be earning #4. and aside from the salary he promised of giving me #200 everyday to serve as a meal, so out of curiosity I accepted the second option which is #4 per bag... pls which is more preferable, #15k monthly or #4 per bag sold? thanks and remain blessed. Note: Am to resume on Monday.

You that know how to run business should understand that slavery employment is only being penny wise pound foolish in the long run....u will only set your business up for theft when you pay people scrap money..

..if your business has not grown to the level of paying people minimum wage...dont employ full grown adult with responsibilities for 10-15k and expecting them to do 50k job....its from your busimess they will balance their remaining needs...its that simple
...
u think those people doimg their business themselves becos the business hasnt grown well are stupíd..??

MyExpression:
Please ooo, when did a Driver become a Marketer?

Na you go help them find customer?

Oga, licenced driver no dey find job.
When I buy my car tomorrow, I would still employ a driver.
So you see say, even for my future, you still get job wey dey wait for you!

Get your licence and apply elsewhere.
Atleast 50k monthly, where all you do is DRIVE.

15k divided by 26 working days= 576 naira per day.
You will have to sell 144 bags @N4 to meet N576.

If you can sell more than 144 bags daily, take the N4 per bag.
If not, jejely take the 15k monthly.

Gbadespet:






I will advice you base on the experience I had will working in that same company.
1.This is raining season and don't expect much sales on water .
2. You sales per day will depend on the effectiveness of your sales rep since you are new to the work.
I would have advise you to go out for sales maybe Saturday first before deciding on the plan you like.most time na weekend sales dey come ....

tctrills:

Just so you know, I have worked for free in a mechanic village just for the experience. This made me very valuable in my industry at the time. Laziness is never an option. I would instead work for 5k than stay at home doing nothing. We build skills, capacity, and a sense of responsibility through work.
Please stop discouraging young men who are ready to work. Again, we grow from the bottom up and not the other way around.

Rickmann:


Pls go for the 15k monthly..

4 * 200 is N800. Or is my Maths skills messed up? 800 * 30 days, assuming he works every single day of the month is N24,000.

bluefilm:


Since you are only good in selling your time and services for money, I'd advise you then to carry your nonsense self, time and services to a higher bidder rather than telling me to change my Wage structure for you simply because you are the first & ONLY graduate in Nigeria.

Thunder faya you.

merit455:
Were is your location,I can get you a better job

torqque7:


Obviously you don’t have the capacity to reason well so I shouldn’t have engaged you in any form of discourse. Children whey still de chop for mama house wan de follow talk where men dey smh.

Gerrard59:


Yes, and to add it means the "graduate" lacks a basic understanding of economics. Did he tell you where he is located? If you don't like the wage, decline the offer and go work elsewhere.

Abeg delete this stuff
. No be watin them fit read twice..
What nonsense

Nozino:



The employer suggested a base salary of 15k. This wasn’t commission based. Minimum wage aside, how do you pay someone 15k? Why is this an option? A T shirt is 20k and a Jean 30k. How would the workers survive present day Nigeria?

Dear OP, if you do decide to take this job, please steal as much as you can.

It is morally wrong to offer adults such compensation and the only reason employers do this is because they know people have no choice but to take it.

japhethGold:


Haiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil
Heey heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeey

This is how wicked and bad Nigeria has become? you have degree and some one wanted to pay u 15k salary per month ?

Hmm. God have mercy on our generation and deliver us all in Jesus Name.

Do you see that we need to start stoning politicians who have been in politics since 2009 whenever we see them?

Before I left Nigeria, my driver had just finished secondary school then but I used to pay him 40,000 Naira salary monthly. After 6 months of service I confirmed him and increased the pay to N50,000 monthly. Personally, I have a degree and I know the pain people go through to study for degrees so I can not pay a degree holder N15k per month. I will never.

I will advise you to leave Lokoja and go to lagos even if you have no place to sleep. Go to Unilag or Yaba tech and be sleeping there while searching for job. I am not a theorist; I am telling you what I did when I first got to Lagos. I had no one but I refused to sit in my home state Benue to earn N10k salary after obtaining 2.1 degree in Economics.

It was not an easy journey for me ooo. But I am a Born Again Christian so I studied the Bible and prayed and fought toothlessly until God Almighty settled me.

I became a chartered accountant in Lagos; I owed my audit firm and employed graduates and chartered accountants to work for my firm. I lived in lekki with my family uptil last year. And today my family and I have left Nigeria when the economic situation began to deteriorate beyond repairs under Buhari tsunami regime.

I have shared my story just to motivate you. Your God and degree can make way for you in Lagos if you know what you studied in the Uni.

Today my wife, my three handsome sons and I are all living in the United Kingdom.

I pray my God will make a way for you in Jesus Name.

Finally, connect me on facebook(Japheth Jev), perhaps you may qualify for one of my scholarships to learn IT skill or take ICAN professional exams which can change your story, through Jesus Christ.

Thanks and stay blessed.
