Tryagain77:
I saw a post on this forum which looks similar to mine and that inspired me into writing this to share with people how my boss (former) was abusing me.

I graduated from one of the courses in social science in one of the federal universities and have been job hunting to land a good job but to no avail.

Bills were piling up while I was going down economically. Out of hunger, lack and frustration, I settled to work as a barman in a hotel.

A week after resuming that work, the man that the hotel is leased out to started showing me his true colours. Nobody is above mistake in life. Even minor things that could have been settled without raising eyebrows, he would shout at me and abuse me right in front of customers. He would use derogatory words to describe me and say all sort of inhumane things to me, all to show that he's the boss.

Despite all that, I couldn't leave because I had no other job option at hand. For the 9 months I have worked in the place, these are the things I went through.

1. I have been verbally and physically abused by the said man. There is no kind of derogatory and inhumane word that man has not used on me and most times, right in the presence of customers and also when in the presence of the girls he brings to sleep with.

Note: this is how he behaves with all the staff, not only me.

2. He kicked me, slapped me, knocked my head, spat on me, yelled at me. Calling me a fool, an idiot, useless something etc, was no longer anything worrisome to me again because I got used to it.

3. Because of all these abuses, his friends who use to come there took advantage and started abusing me too. One slapped me the other day because I presented a bill he thought I surcharged him, which we later found out I didnt. I don't blame him actually.

4. You would work 2 months plus before you receive 1 month salary. For example, you would receive January salary between 10-15th of March.

5. Salary was N25,000 but I have never received that amount complete. He always look for something accuse me of in order to deduct our so called salary and pay less. There was a month I received N7000 as my salary.

6. Any customer that breaks a glass pays N1000 for it. When he first mentioned this in a meeting, we thought he was joking, but he was being serious. When he started deducting my salary for broken glasses, then I realized he was serious. I have never heard anything of such anywhere before. That a customer who breaks glass should pay N1000 for it.

What happened on the 23rd of May.
23rd of May was his birthday. He invited friends and celebrated. Right in his presence, one of the guests broke a glass. I'm the only one serving both the bar and guests in the room including food. So it was a very busy time for me. Just because I didn't sweep the broken glass immediately because I was busy serving people, as I wanted to pass, he shouted angrily at me, aimed me with the broken glass and broke my head. I was bleeding and I left the place to a pharmacy to treat the wound. Guess what? He was not even remorseful about it at all.

The following day I tendered a resignation letter with immediate effect. Obviously if I don't leave the place, the man may kill me or make me do something I will later regret.

Now pay me off, he's telling me I need to work again at least another one month for him to find a replacement, if I'm serious about receiving my outstanding salary or I should forget about it. Even at that, I know too well that he will pay me anything he likes, claiming glasses were broken, I did this and I did that. Presently he's looking for job seekers but nobody wants to work with such a crude person anymore. Even someone he sacked as usual over two months ago, he's not been able to replace till today.

Now I'm jobless, hungry and penniless.

I need advice on how to go about to collect my money from this man. I don't have strength for any fight with him. I just need my hard earned money but let it not be until another blood is spilled.

Story of a struggling Nigerian.

You actually deserve the abuses. You be fool I swear.

See let me tell you as you are jobless and hungry now, you will still survive. So why allow all the insults and abuses to linger for that long? Now he do break your con sack you join and nothing you do am. Hmm.

If you have stood for yourself from day 1. Yes, probably he would have sacked u or given you your respect, regardless you will still survive.

Ihateheadslamer:
DSS will not go after these JuJu man

He use your papa do juju?

Happy birthday sir. May u live long


Most of his crew on new masquerade are late sha

frozen70:
In as much as I dont support what she is doing, I can't judge her because the story said that her husband doesn't provide for them but rocks out, they go hungry some days but am sure he eats while his family goes hungry

So she has no option left but to have a sugar daddy who cares for them and provide for them to feed

Well if the husband can't stand it, let him find his way out of the relationship

Hunger is not something to play with

A man who doesn't do his work, another man will do it for him

Gbam!

Caseless:
Pope is.

He is not, what he said can be explained with 'not throwing the baby away with the bath water'

Jakumo:
It is possible to become so shocked and dumbfounded that one could become rooted to the spot and incapable of even remembering that a phone is ready at hand for picture taking. That said, US fighter pilots HAVE taken numerous photographs of UFOs already posted on youtube

If it's people fighting or some kinda horrific accident happening people bring out their cameras n record.

I still don't believe this. No evidence.

What some folks see here as spirits or demons is probably what they see over there as aliens. All in all still no evidence.

tamdun:
So the caller don't have camera?

No mind dem, Dem dey find who Dem wan decieve.

In this era of mobile phone cameras, you couldn't record what you saw but you called ,911.

I don't believe this shit! Even what the police bodycam captured is not enough evidence. It could be a firework.

Chetas81:
god forbids idols but Catholic lines up behind same idol call Jesus Idol

Who is this nut case?

smokinloud:
Yoruba leads others follow!.

Lagos you mean as an industrial hub.

Out of all of them only innoson is originally indigenous.

GOFRONT:
Where is Anambra

Go buy reading glasses

onadana:
These are people that have shame and values.

They are the reason our leaders are opposite of theirs

Eriokanmi:
Nonsense. I wonder which version of the Bible he's reading

He is gay

SangoOlukosoOba:
Way to go!

Anglican’s need to disassociate from anti-gay movement.

The Catholics have made it clear that love is all the world needs.

No one is in position to detest or prosecute people on the basis of sexual orientation.

The Catholic is not in support of homosexuality.

Martinsmine:
Most times we tend to shoot ourselves on the legs withour own guns. Tinubu should try and cub the smuggling of crude and petrol in the country.

If our refineries work all that will end, we will be the ones benefitting by exporting refined products to our neighbors. So let tinubu do the needful.

Our refineries are still much ok but corruption shut it down.

Oya defect sharp sharp.


Nigeria is not ready yet.

Babzrockman:
Nonsense comments.
Dollars mismanagement too na Buhari

Yes, from his clueless policies. If you can remember that 2 week osibabjob took charge during one of dullardiinho's medical trips, dollars dropped, the economy improved untill that numbskull came back.

Buhari did everything bad we suffered under him.

spencekat:
Buhari did it

And look at where it got us.

Jayhome24:
And Buhari appointed Emefielle because he is a Igbo speaking SS ba? Or Gej adopted Sanusi because Sanusi is a Fulani ba?

So because Tinubu is Yoruba he should not appoint someone he thinks qualified to do the job from his region baa?

Infact with how Sanusi destroyed Gej and Emefielle destructive and killer policy its better let's try somebody from SW or an Ijaw man or Edo man, CBN governorship was not created only for North or SE region time to try others.

Good day and safe trip to prison Mr Emefielle I hate you with passion....

Sanusi did well under GEJ

flokii:
This Deji guy is a fo0l..
If you know how Igbos operate, then you'd know the other Igbo there is working together with Emefiele and will likely be arrested by DSS in the coming days.

Anybody can obtain a PhD in the South East with money.

I read the post over and over I dint see anywhere deji mentioned Igbo. I just know one idiotic bigot will call out igbos and here he is.

TemplarLandry:
Y'all gotta start trusting Tinubu's discretion.

The way you did buhari's

Apc has a right to cry but inec!!!
Hmm

oyatz:
1) Every State thrive to protect the interests of their indigenes

2) In 2015, the whole of Anambra State kicked against the Transfer of certain Prisoners from the North to Nigerian Prison , Ekwulobia, Anambra State.

3) Most Southern States kicked against RUGA in their States.

Are you a lagosians?

Oakenshield:
Good but the issue na charging

Try dey read, e get why.

dopedan:
I have some bad habits im trying to stop like porn and masturbation, because wen im with a girl I get erect but when its time to put it in it goes flaccid , it’s quite shameful
So i need advice from people who experience this on wat to do to speed up my recovery process and get my morning wood back thanks

It's your mind that is playing tricks on you. You are too anxious when it comes to the real deal. Relax your mind next time.

Godfullsam:
They won't kick against it when Kano state ban alcohol and public sale of beer because Kano people knows how to handle them wella.

Lagos should ban alcohol na

Jogs1900:
I even read somewhere.that Canada has stopped selling lands to the Chinese.
Kudos to Obasa for this.

Are the Chinese Canadians?

Nvestor02:
Even in Europe and America. The government regularize how Arab, Russians and Chinese can own property there.

Igbo claimed they are the ones that are developing us and we said that don't develop us again. all of a sudden they are crying.

They should go back to their war torn region that is full of pain and agony; we are tired of their criminal lifestyle here.

Is Lagos a country or a stare?

This country eh!

Even idiots from gbagan and ikoke-ekiti are claiming lagosians.

Shithole people in a shithole country
