[quote author=TomHagen post=63894688]What is right?

That Nigerian employers do not ask their good employees why they have chosen to resign?
Is there any employer anywhere in the world that will be happy at losing good employees or has your self- hate completely eroded your sense of reason?[/quote

Are you even in this country? I'm not sure, Do u knw that their are private recruiting Companies everywhere? And when you're been given an employment to a company by them you're being labeled as " 3rd party "� which means almost half of your Full salary pay is taken by them and the rest Divided into salary , pension, housing allowance and all sorts of cock and bull shit they prints on ur pay slip, and mind you you're still doing the same job or more wit the "Staffs" in that Company. No job security , you think you're The best worker it'll take the grace of God to get Staffed.

Guy I understand you're Trying to see or make Our Mother country Nigeria a better place bt its just not what it is, you better face the reality.( We can't keep doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different results, if we continue in this trend we'll keep stagnating).
And 4 telling me to shut up, well I'll only tell you to Listen up and Come back home an see what we're actually going through. That if you're in 9ja.

Well, turns out no car was coming at that point in time, so I slowly regained control of my vehicle, after it had skid for some minutes.

That taught me a lesson, I had to reduce my speed and increase my braking distance. I further lost control of my vehicle twice. A trip that normally takes me 10 minutes took me about 45 minutes. On my way back, they had ploughed the road a little, (pictures below) I figured all I had to do was stay on the dark part of the road, once my tire touches the white part (ice) I knew I'd lose control of my vehicle, so I just drove very carefully and was grateful to not have gotten into an accident. After that day, I jejely parked my car one side until I get new tires. For now, I'm driving my sister's Hyundai Sonata which has brand new tires. She's not around, she went to Naija for the winter holidays.

Tuesday that week was supposed to be my last day at BurgerKing. On monday, I got a call from the manager, I almost did not want to pick the phone but I did. She called to wish me well in my future endeavors, telling me how sad she was that I quit the job, talking about she has been losing her good workers and she didn't know why. That if I ever need a job, I would always be welcome at burgerKing. I smiled and thanked her for the opportunity, that for the fact that this was my very first job in the USA, it would always hold sentimental value to me. She thanked me once more and hung up.

On Tuesday, I put on my burgerking work clothes (for the last time) and went to work. Word had filtered around that I was quitting, those that worked that last shift with me couldn't hide the fact that they would miss me. I mirrored their wishes and sentiments, the gay dude that was being stvpid the other day came to apologize, I ignored the kid. When I was about clocking out for the last time, they did something silly, they brought out a cheesecake and were looking for candle to put on it and sing for me, sh*t was funny sha. smiley
in general, I would say I learnt a lot at BurgerKing, if not for anything, I gained some insight on how rough "the streets" are. Some people have it rough sha. But that's a story for another day.

Good bye, BK.
Frank that's really nice of her ,it's shows your time and energy you've put in while working there is being appreciate for, unlike Nigeria where nobody cares if you're Quiting.
