Hussen24:
TCN has invited my friend for interview this coming Thursday.

Any idea if they are still accepting CVs

Iceyjayz:
Is this even for real? ewwwww

Very real bro

Missambitious:
One of the reasons i don't fancy eating outside. You don't know how, when and where the food was prepared. That's how Someone will be eating poison thinking that s/he is enjoying.

I swear. Especially when I heard a story of a popular food joint in lagos where the owner washed pussy and add it as part of cooking ingredients. Her reason for doing this is for people to like her food and many more customers. No wonder people always full there morning and night.

SpringofLife:
I don't know if this is the right place to post this but permit me to go ahead regardless.

How I end up washing people's poo as a graduate with 2:1.

Growing up, I used to admire graduates a lot especially the way they do things, conduct themselves and the rest. You see them living in a good house and in the morning, they dress up properly, go to work and return in the evening. Non-graduates of course used to jealous graduates a lot as it were. Fast forward to today, the table has sharply turned 360°. Now, graduates have not only been ridicule but reduced almost to nothing. Non-graduates who learnt one skill or the other are the ones kicking money bags to the bank.

Well, I finished university 3 years ago and couldn't find a job despite aggressive job hunting due to obvious reasons. Being the first in the family, the pressure was/is already much on me. The aged parents have tried within their powers thinking the best they could do for me was training me to acquire a university degree but in today's Nigeria, it's glaringly not enough.

Let me not bother you all with long story but I don't see myself continuing with this kind of life any longer because it's not what I envisaged.

According to the heading, I graduated with second class upper division which of course is a good grade considered very employable according to society standard and labour market. Despite this, I searched for job in every nook and cranny I could but to no avail. Everyday I have to eat food, rent expiring, bills piling up, parents looking up to me and younger ones who are already in school every now and then would call and ask for assistance and which I didn't have. Out of no option, I accepted an offer to work as a laundry man in a hotel for 15k/month. That's how I thought I have at least got something doing. Frankly speaking, I didn't have an in depth knowledge of the job description.

Obviously, this would be a long story but let try and shorten it. Do you know that I have drained so much from my body in the course of this work physically and health wise? Practically, I wash between15-25 bedsheets/duvets everyday as the hotel does not have washing machine....parked since it got spoilt. Consequently, my pams have developed thick skin which is now very tough, rough and scratchy.

However, the above might not just be my only anger. More annoying is that, some guests are so inhumane. Is it because you paid money to lodge in the place that's why you believe you have to do wickedness? Why I'm writing this is because of the very one that happened few days ago. Actually that wasn't the first time. It's been happening over and over before. Could you believe a guest used the hotel bedsheets and defecated on it, folded it and kept it and checked out. As a laundry man, of course it landed on me and I was the one who washed the poo off. Oh God! Like I said, that wasn't the first time although other ones only used the bedsheets to clean their buttocks (for whatever reasons because I believe tissue paper is always there) after defecating but this particular guest 'pooed' fully inside the bedsheets, folded it and dropped it for whoever to come carry it and wash. I'm not writing fiction here please. This is 100% real of what I'm going through in the supposed 15k/month job. How wicked? When toilet was there?

Moving forward, equally, I can't count the number of times I have washed menstrual blood from bedsheets. These men bring even women who are on menses to sleep with them and end up pouring menstrual blood all over the bedsheets and I would be the one to wash it. God why?

Most annoying of all is, the management pays salary on the 26th of the following month. How inhumane some people can be? In other words, I have to work 2 months to get 1 month salary or simply put, 15/2=7500. In reality, that is the salary I'm receiving as a graduate. When I picked up the job, my plan was to raise up to 50k within the shortest possible time and move to something else, but unfortunately, I don't even know what I'm doing now. I have been in the job for 6 months now with nothing to show for it. This is why I said I can't continue with the present condition. The situation is beyond the one people say 'hold unto it. At all at all, na him bad pass". This one is worst than "at all at all".

Before I end it, just a few questions. Dear Nigerians with good job, abeg where una dey see diz good job after graduation? Abeg where una dey see money do business after school? Where una dey see money chop food and live life? Me still dey very hungry as I'm typing this. Abeg na beg I beg una, make una put me on abeg. Make una be my God father/mother. I don taya for this life. I be una brother o. Help me and help the society by extension. Thank you.

I feel for u bro, to see job in dis country na by Gods grace even with first class unless u know someone who knows someone at the top but regardless people are getting a well paying jobs without knowing anybody. Wht u study really matters at times. I have a friend who study CRIMINOLOGY, we advised him to write jamb again dat year so he can pick his dream course but baba refused, study CRIMINOLOGY all in the name of I wanna enter school. Like for real, dat iind course in Nigeria of today. All the criminals I know are in power/ government. This guy is still looking for job with first class in CRIMINOLOGY 6years after graduation.

So my brother the little money I will borrow u is to find a teaching job and quit the hotel job, use ur weekend to learn something outside the box like solar Installation, Electrical wiring, plumber or computer (excel) den u can rush up ur CV and starts applying from front desk, office Assistant et al. Before u know something good will come up.

We just av to make little sacrifices. Shalom brother

Dear Nairalanders, there is something that I don't really understand about life or let me say religion. I know some people may see it as luck or destiny. But if we call it destiny, then every Christian or all child of God suspose to be prosper and leave a better life than Dangote.

Because according to Jeremiah 29:11 New International Version that's says For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.

But when I check those guys we call pastors and Alfa in School (University) they don't play with Church Fellowship or Mosque prayers, they get the best results, as in when it come to Education, they are very sound but most of this people end up teaching in one local private school or the other. While those Stubborn guys, that go to Club and party every night, many of them manage to get Third class but they end up in better companies, some are abroad while some are in government.

Also, those ladies that doesn't allow man to touch thier hand not to talk of hugs, infact majority of them are still virgin base on thier looks and behavior ( Not all). They always reserve thier body for thier future husband Many of those ladies too are on the street looking for husband up till now and looking old now. Even those that marry among them are still looking for the friut of the womb. But those strippers, Club girls, they hardly attend attend class and many of them even graduated with poor result get the best husband, have beautiful kids and better job.

Now my question is, why those who lived a wayward life in school get better opportunities than Church goer or those Alfa?

Reason why I don't take LIFE too serious anymore

Lawricast:
They said it is safety, we gather our NYSC Alawi to be trained to level 3,later Nebosh, then they said it is Autocad to have an edge as an engineering graduate,we finished everything in the name of training,without any thought of doing business! Now applying,they are asking for 10 years experience!!! Where is NSE? Where is COREN?Who will address the plight of young engineers?

The annoying part is that nobody is talking or doing anything abt it. The Engineering bodies are just there to collect money datz all

Good morning nairalanders . I want to beg everyone here particularly Civil Engineers in the house to come to my aid as I am passing through a lot of depression right now. I got a job as a site engineer in Airport road(Abuja)January this year after a long period of joblessness and now the project am working with has been terminated this month and this is coming after I have used all my savings to rent a house close to my working place last week due to the fact that where I was staying was very far to the site.

Please my fellow nairalanders if you are a civil engineer and you have a site that I can work with you or if you resides in Abuja and you know any civil Engineer or a company that can help me, I will really appreciate. I am staying in airport road lugbe Abuja. Thanks.

Thanks for this..
The Bank work isn't really stressful. My decision to leave would be solely for career advancement and to have that experience on my resume.

Then quit and jump over the telecoms company.

Best of luck in all ur endeavors

Emmerlee:
If it is Huawei leave the bank and come in quickly before it's too late.

The experience in Huawei is much different

Huawei is a top notch telecom company. That's why she needs to give more insight abt the Chinese multinational company.

pokosimani:
Dear NLanders,
I have been working for a tier 1 Bank in Nigeria for some time and so far it has been quite good. I work with great people and the pay is reasonable. Recently, I got an offer to work in a multinational telecoms company. While this seems like a good offer, I am worried about working for Chinese/Indian companies because of the negative report about them generally. Your considered opinions and/or experiences would be appreciated.

Many thanks...

me I av few questions to ask.
Is the bank work stressed u dat much? did they treat u wit respect? is the bank work affecting ur home/ relationship? av there been any career growth from the bank?

Think abt dos things before leaving. Cos personally from my experience Chinese/Indian/Lebanese company is nothing to talk abt. Fine the pay might be quite good, but trust me u will work for dat money, sometimes dey feels they are doing u a favour with the pay.

Not of all of them thou, I av few people who says good things abt dem just like some bad and good Nigeria owned companies too.

I had encouraged u to do finding abt the company well from people who worked there probably via LinkedIn. Ask questions as regards to why the position is vacant in the first place and lot more. I hope this helps.

Good Luck
