Let me start by saying security job is not my dream job but while I'm very hopeful of getting that dream job someday soon, body and soul need to be put together. An unemployed person with penniless pocket will certainly understand my predicament. The only option is to grab anything provided it can take of your very essential needs. Worse is when you wake up with no food to eat or not even soap to bath with, then you'd realize doing anything is sure better than nothing.

So I got this security job which I resumed yesterday. Could you believe that same yesterday, armed robbers operated in the area. As you know, security or what people call gateman is the one the armed robbers target first when they come to a place.

It was around 3:am when everywhere was quiet, As the security, I did a patrol around the compound when I noticed suspicious noise in the next compound. Before I know, I heard people shouting over there. I stayed back. In less than no time, I saw about 5 people coming straight to my compound. They pointed torch inside. I didn't bother to ask who they were cos I already knew. My people, I didn't even know when I commot for gear run to the backyard of the house, jumped over to the other side which is a bush, breathing like who just escaped death. Unfortunately, I sustained injury while running in the bush. Since the gate of the compound is not high, they jumped over it and gained entry into the compound, but thankfully they couldn't gain access to the house due to burglary after a long while of triaI. Unfortunately for me again, I slept in the bush till this morning.

Now, I learnt robbers operate in the area often. This has further put fear in me. I wouldn't want to be a victim of robbery circumstance because of a job whose salary cannot even meet one's needs.

So I am confused now. Even with the injury, should I go back to the place or not? Presently I don't have anything else doing and I don't have money to sustain myself either. Please what would you advise me?

Note: this happened somewhere in Delta state. I don't want to disclose the location for security reasons.

There is a difference betweena security man and a gate man. In this case, you are a gate man!

You have two options;

Option 1: Lick your wounds and look for another job.

Option 2: Look for somewhere to fortify yourself against bullet (metal weapons in general), It will give you mad ballz and could influence you to become a robber yourself but remember once they find out bullet no dey enter you, na common 2 by 2 kpako go bring your end.

Choose wisely.
that your second option get k-legโ€ฆ.. he should use thousands of naira to do charm for a job of less than 50k as salary? That aside. Do you think if they shoot at him and the billet fail to penetrate, theyโ€™ll just leave him like that? They might just use stone to smash his head or strangle him to death. I would rather he start looking for another job.

Cleaner job, Salesboy, Carwash boy, are better alternatives and Concrete building construction site csrrying blocks( only if your Bones are stronger now. Last time l checked your threads, you are always sick and feeble like a Sickler/sickle cell guy)

I don't think you want the job? it is the money you want.

this is your own statement "I wouldn't want to be a victim of robbery circumstance because of a job whose salary cannot even meet one's needs". with these statements; I doubt your passion for the job, which means you did not count the cost(what it will take), you just counted the money..........

Don't ever go back to that work.

Security is the worse work anyone can do, I repeat security worse work I know.

I did one in Abuja, Rita Lori hotel, when I was very broke. As I collected my salary after month I didn't go back there again

Security job is the most dangerous job ever. Too too risky.

Is it actually true that there is juju that can prevent bullets from entering a person's body?

I have always considered those stories to be mere fables grin

My family house is a massive mansion in Imo state that attract armed robbers like magnet especially in December period when different cars are parked there

My uncle works for the FBI with links in the Nigerian security agencies and he gave us the solution

It's not really high fence, dogs or security men that scare or stop armed robbers especially the professional ones. It's guns and not just any gun but shotguns

You see while an Ak47 fires just one bullet anyone can dodge a shotgun fires a carriage that opens up to spit out hundreds of pallets that can do serious damage to many people at once

We have 3 licensed aitomatic shotguns at home and during December period when everyone is home one of us men take one gun out front each evening and fires several rounds, sometimes we just walk around the village with one rife over one shoulder... my favorite style.

The whole town knows we got guns and so do all the armed robbers in a hundred miles
We have never been robbed on 21 years

When we are gone the security man is not allowed to use the rifles. What he does is blow knockout in the compund at midnight. The sound carries for miles and the while village swears he has a gun too


Get knockouts and set 2 off next time the the thieves come. Just one and two shots.

Thank me later

It is a very bad way to start a new job, you will get your dream job someday, as for going to the workplace, I will advise you follow your instinct. If your instinct tells you to go then you go, but it doesn't allow you to go, then look for something else to keep yourself busy with. Remember going against one's instinct sometimes could produce bad results

What you need is some kind of little crowd funding to raise something for you to startup and leave that security job for those meant for it (those with the training and equip).
If 20 or 30 people can gather give 5k to you, may be that can start up something for you.

Thank you very much.
I'm sorry about your experience on your first day at work.
My advice is to put it behind you and return to work, while you look out for better offers.

Remember, people are still enrolling in the army, despite Boko Haram and other daily dangers they face.

You will be fine. Going back to square one is not an option.

Don't go back there. They might accuse you of conniving with the theives since you were no where to be found when it was happening and it's your first day at work. Look for another job.

If you aint from delta. Asaba is the safest place for you.l that's if you aint street wise.
If you are street wise and smart, you can stay anywhere in delta. But one thing you should know is that, you need to be security concious in delta State. Especially in places like warri, ugelli, and those riverine areas.
