Duru009:
Receive grace now to be humble........

Humble urself bro. God will exait u in due time.

"many people give up at the tail of dre breakthrough".......

U are almost dre. Dont give up

I am humble that is why I we here to seek advice

cutiedave:
Op, i was exactly in your shoes...am a mechanical.engr student.
Did my siwes in a big company in which i worked myself out(both in the mechanical and electrical departments, i even did some menial jobs sef)..

At first i thought i was just working in vain and was about to quit...
Just i was planning how i would write my resignation letter , the production manager himself came to me and acknowledged my good works,...after everything i was paid 70k after d training with a promise of easy employment whenever am done with school...

I advise u to endure...it might just b a blessing in disguise

I will take ur advice since you have added through same experience

montumonami:
Broh.... I was in the same condition....... But quited.... Now training on Computer aided design........... Which is very significant in mechanical engineering design.......... No knowlegde is waste though.. But what U will defend must be mechanical engineering inclined

My thoughts exactly

BlackPeni5:
I'll advise u as a little brother...you are too young as an IT student to start comparing yourself with the staff. As an IT u are there to learn and not earn...any money u earn is just a bonus. More importantly I've come to realise that no knowledge is wasted...u may be surprised that this experience may help you in an interview tomorrow cos employers want people with the most diverse knowledge.

wish u the best as u decide wisely

]

Ur moniker though, thanks anyway

sseunth:
i am sure u were nt starving on campus...

it is called IT...u are nt an employer yet....u are there to learn not to get paid for learning...


you think getting IT placement with pay is easy

Then why use the IT student to do the job of employer?

Why is this in religion section? This is a fashion/lifestyle topic nau

It is religious too....

Saw a thread asking if Godly dressing makes one Godly now, let's look it the other way round. Does HOEly dressing make one HOEly?

Does HOEly dressing make one HOEly?

sseunth:
actually, u are after the money

Money is motivation whether u like it or not. How can someone work when he has not eaten?

007Gbenga:
Be patient bro, it's IT, this is the time to learn not quit. No knowledge is lost, one day you will find all this useful.... peace.

Thank you all for the advice now, I need to work on getting paid.

lovingT:
Make your feelings known n try to get paid but don't quit.....

In this economy no skill learnt is ever wasted....

Besides it's I.T doesn't last for ever.....

It's better u have something like your skill and not use it than to need something and not have it.....

Remember that....

What if they insist on not paying for 6months?

sseunth:
endure bro....everything is a lesson....focus on anything u are being told to do...u are an mechanical student doesnt mean u cant knw anytjing about electrical...

i will advice u to keep on enduring. I.T wont last forever and u dont even know where you will find ursef after school.

i am a chemistry student and i did my I.T in a pure water industry...i was meant to learn things about chemistry of water but things changed when i got there.

i learnt the chemistry of water and all the machines involved in producing bottled water.


when the owner scaked most of his worker, he said i should stay behing and i was the head of production line for more than 20mnths. i got paid for 40k tho.


just endure and do anything u are being told to do

Paid 40K during the IT or when you got employed ?

Ahmed0336:
Patience bro, patience

Have been patient for approximately 2 months now. Patience is not what I need now

I got a placement on the Last week of June, 2016 for my industrial training having completed 3years and a semester of Mechanical Engineering in a prominent Federal University. The I.T placement I got happen to be a project which I believe a lot of money is involved in( this is not my concern anyway).


I have worked with them through some mechanical stages until the site engineer insisted I work with him on electrical engineering jobs which I had to join him because he is a senior colleague after all. 3weeks into the electrical job it started to occur to me that I am;
1. Not gaining mechanical Experience
2. I am being used for most of the work(electrical) by this site engineer since I happen to learn fast and do more than my other colleagues even when they are getting paid and I am not and it is going to 2 months now

I have discussed the issue with the site manager and he promised to talk to the site engineer which I am not certain of he did.


I am fed of everything and the training is becoming frustrating since I am neither Learning what I came for nor getting any pay for doing electrical jobs.

I intend meeting the site manager on Monday to quit if they insist I do the electrical jobs which hectic and comes along side with other mini jobs like digging to lay Cables, climbing of tanks. Please I need your advice

Peacetemi:
If only they could channel all that focus and energy into something positively productive, their lives would have been better off. Most of them just need fast money so they can impress some dirty-ass girl, typical dumb-ass mentality, they never see the bigger picture. This country has been damaged beyond repair.

You are not talking sense. Your Country does not regard hardwork but easy spending. Your politicians does not encourage skill and talent.
