It is fine
As long as COS was submitted before the change in minimum wage in April. It is understandable that the rate will change upon commencement of contract.

You may contact the company providing the COS to get clarifications on new pay rate and how it affects you

Statutorily, your hourly rate should match the Uk minimum wage so it is highly likely that the rate will be increased.
It is an offence for the company not to pay the statutory wage unless you are underage

Business / Re: What Lucrative Business Can Someone Go Into With 1.2m Only by ephbe(m): 4:36pm On Oct 20, 2021
Okay so I see people advising
1. Travelling out: 1.2m is probably 20% of what she needs to travel with....if she wants a good life overseas. Forget Dubai, France or whatever people are advising.

2. Cryptocurrency: Okay maybe, but remember it is a volatile business and when she loses 1.2m she is back to square 1, my advise....not a feasible business for someone like her

3. Trading: May also be option but what are her views regarding it, is she a natural sales person. Nice option but depends on her drive.

4. Restaurant: Very good business but a lot needs to be put into consideration, location is the major problem here, now that food is expensive, she may end up complaining afterwards. Good business if planned properly.

My Advise

Learn a skill, an in demand skill but do not take from the money, or maybe use the 200k but ensure you have a minimum of 1m left in fixed deposit somewhere.
Forget those money doubling avenues please, not even Cryptocurrency, your 1m today may be 500k tomorrow, not with this kind of money please. Fixed deposit is very small but your money is safer in the bank yielding the 2kobo.
Her first test will be to ignore other money doubling avenue and remain focus on her skill.
You did well giving her that money and God bless you.

Pets / Re: Which Of These Dog Breeds Do You Own Or Wish To Own? (Photos) by ephbe(m): 10:18pm On Jun 12, 2021
@OP
Nice collection and good detail, also a lover of dogs here although I own none, my wife dislikes pets with passion so I wouldn't own any. If I were to own any, a Retriever for their companionship and a German Shepherd or Dutch Shepherd for their Vigilance would do.

The Ekuke I think is a breed called Mongrel, they are products of continous cross of different breeds of dogs, hence, why they are called Mongrels as they are of no definite breed.

Thumbs up

OP, i am not here to advise you but to caution you, thread softly bro, fake agents will tell you this and that to get that money from you, you'll be left with nothing at the end.
Dubai for me would be a bad choice...dont ask me why, rather make enquiries and speak people who actually lives and works there.

Education is the best way to japa...ask anybody, consider countries that grants post study visa after school.

brimdans:
I would have loved to remain anonymous, but what's the point?

My problem is I'm a jobless graduate, who works for a friend. This friend I work for, doesn't even pay, he just gives me stipends after every work I do. It's a laundry work. He owns the shop, so he's in charge of everything in the shop including, collections of money and all. My work is just to work. I do virtually everything in the shop.

My problem is this guy almost all the time collects the money and doesn't even give me my share. The only time I see my share is when the I'm around when the monies are given to him.

I'm hooked because I mostly feed in there house, because the shop is just within the house. I tried to get a good job, but nothing is forth coming. I even tried applying for casual jobs, still no luck.

I'm currently in a dilemma because my parents are tired of me staying in there house, so currently I sleep in the shop, and it's not even conducive, but that's the only option I have.

I tried contacting my relatives in Lagos if I could go and make a living there, but they aren't really interested me coming.

Please I kindly need advise and help, because I'm heading towards depression.

I'm actually 30 years old. With nothing to show for, except "I'm a graduate" tag.

Politics / Re: Cost Of Living In UK Compared To Nigeria (Photos) by ephbe(m): 1:08pm On May 17, 2021
I never said all jobs pay the same and if you live in UK, you'll get the drift.....truly
The essence of that writeup is not to emphasize the amount you get paid but rather to shed light on how expensive it can be be living in the UK considering the amount of deductions. Its basically like working for the Govt, but hey they dont complain because as Nigerians, we are taught to be contented as long as we get it....well maybe subconsciously.

Have you ever wondered why you hardly find the Whites doing this menial jobs, only a microscopic few would.

Prove me wrong


vannie21:
is London the only city in UK?...Minimum jobs in London pays higher..your calculation is wrong...am presently in UK.. I totally disagree with u
Politics / Re: Cost Of Living In UK Compared To Nigeria (Photos) by ephbe(m): 9:56pm On May 16, 2021
Minimum wage is 8.91
Standard hrs/week (37.5 x 4wks) = £1336/month
Cheapest accommodation you'll get in London (not council flat) = £800/month
(You may get cheaper if you are lucky to find shared accommodation)

Other bills left to pay = Council tax, telephone bill, water, electricity, TV license, maybe credit card, feeding, transportation


What do you all think would remain after taking out those bills MONTHLY.

Yes opportunities abound in UK but most people overseas would rather live in Nigeria if only they had such or even a slightly lesser opportunities.

There is a saying in the UK that "Everything you earn has a way of going back to the Govt"

Ohhh by the way, I did not factor in 25% tax and national insurance which has to be deducted from your salary monthly

where did you get your figures from, £450 a month where, and are you telling me thats all?


here:
I do not understand why some always compare
The economy is different and not same currency even.
Minimum wage per hour is 8.91 so 45hrs per week you get 1600GBP per month and your spending just around 450GBP for accommodation and complaining? Well you have 1000 to play around though not sure about tax rate and you can do extra hours. How much percentage of your pay were you expecting to save before? All of it? Try come home to do same cleaning work and see if you can afford a studio in decent location like you have
Politics / Re: Cost Of Living In UK Compared To Nigeria (Photos) by ephbe(m): 9:42pm On May 16, 2021
You are missing the point, truly they can afford it but what remains after taking out the bills is nothing to write home about, in order to correct this, they settle for less and try as much as possible to cut down on expenses.
Now this isnt a problem, the problem is the fact that Nigerians always think the land is totally green and they ultimately pluck dollars or pounds on the tree, they ask and ask whereas in the real sense, you lots live way better. These people do the most menial jobs just to make the little they make.


anthonyuncle:
i sick and tired of nigerians abroad complaining of how living over there is very expensive.

these guys that complain are the worst type of hypocrites.
they are always complaining and putting up posts to discourage others from seeking greener pastures abroad but they will refuse to return to Nigeria

i pity people that take their words to heart.

life is expensive there - yes, but the standard of living is way more better.

they earn enough to cover these expenses and still enjoy life. yet they use posts like the above to discourage others.

Islam for Muslims / Re: Ramadan 2021 Preparation by ephbe(m): 2:30pm On Apr 09, 2021
You deserve accolades far more than I can give but....May Allah (S.W.T) reward you accordingly


Empiree:
Oniworoworo... Mr copy copy. Who takes you serious again?.

Let me just educate you for the purposes of future audience. You keep saying fasting in the month of Ramadan has pagan root. What you failed to understand is that fasting of Ramadan had always been the way of prophets and messangers before Quran was revealed.


QUR'AN says:


"O you who believe, fasting is prescribed for you as it was prescribed for those before you, that you may develop God-consciousness." (Quran 2:183).


This means that all prophets and messangers before prophet muhammad (SAW) fasted obligatory fast. Former nations such as Assyrians and the Babylonians observed fasting as a form of penance.

After prophets and messangers of old passed some of their people still held on to fasting, tainted fasting even though they deviated from oneness of God and worship idol but they still maintained obligatory fasting for the most part. That is the part Islam came to correct and standardize. Just like you also messed up identity of Jesus and ISLAM came to correct you. So there is nothing wrong should you see pagans fasted Ramadan. It doesn't mean fasting began with them. No. It began with their divine prophets and messangers to whom fasting was enforced.

Only Muslims still maintained and held on to the truth in the world today. You have diluted doctrines like pagans. This is why you have crazy-self designated fast like called "awe funfun" whereby you don't really fast. Pastors would tell you to fast but you can only eat gari, rice without stew, fruit, eba without obe cheesy . Fufu without ponmo and egunsi grin. Awon werey cheesy

Shey that one na fast . Awon eletan

Izito, this is not your personal story nah, why copy and paste it as if it is? This same tale has been posted by other users, at least they wrote at the beginning that "shared as seen"! You want to bamboozle us by carrying on as if it's your saga.

@ Sisisioge, this is not a Nigerian tale o! It is Ghanian, when I first saw this tale the currency was in cedis. I don't understand the OP's intentions in changing it from cedi to naira and making it look like this whole story is about him (a Nigerian couple and Nigerian woman in particular)
