On a serious note, salary work no matter the amount u are paid cannot guarantee wealth. I have tried both salary work and business and u can agree with me that a petty trader on the street makes more money than some state or company salary earners.

Good afternoon Landers.

I have finally resign from the banking job and I am very happy now with my earnings and freedom.

For me to resign I had to work as Bolt driver everyday I close from the bank and drive till 10pm and worked all through the weekends as a bolt driver, with this I was able to save 1million in short period of time and got loan of 1.5m to get another car.

So now my monthly savings after other expenses is 200k which I plan to pay back the loan in six month starting form this month.

I only work from Wednesday to Sunday every week now since I resigned.
Thanks for all the support from here, other contract staff bankers especially men reading this post should look for exits root immediately as there is no future in the banking industry for us as a polytechnic graduates.
I am also planning to starting bold driving, pls what are the requirements, can you drop your email so I can make some enquiries

I'm glad to read your success story, my brother.

A Bank contract job is a waste of life...

I quit that shit in June last year to manage my blog business full time and I've never regretted I took that step.

I earn in USD monthly on a steady piece way above $700 to $1,000.

I knew I was in the wrong place the moment I joined the system in 2014.

I launched my first blog in 2015 as an exit strategy, it couldn't work following several reasons.

I learned from my mistake and launched the second one in 2018 and as God had it I succeeded with it.

At a point it was paying 5x my monthly salary, I quickly launched the second one in June last year and Japa the same month.

The second blog is not doing bad either and planning of testing another niche this year.
I am happy with my life today.

If you are a contract staff with a Nigerian bank, stop wasting your life.

Learn a digital skill and you'll be happy you did.

Biggcake:


Why is it not lucrative in Calabar? Is it because of the low population or charges.

I have a friend in CALABAR who makes about N12k daily... That is if unical is in session.

Re: I Finally Quit My Bank Job For Bolt Driving by penceman(m): 3:16pm On May 11, 2022
Most of the bank jobs have been contracted to automation. The only worker they need is the marketer who goes to become the branch manager. Bolt is not a gold mind either and only pays if you dont have dependent family. Once the car gets to the mecko, you will start exhausting all those savings. Ofcourse you must know the road....it is not a gold mine. Even politics is now no longer a free money atm under buhari

Wey small small Olosho girls will insult the hell out of you and rate u 1 star

Wey bad road go spoil and depreciate your car

Wey drivers dey earn chicken change except when surge dey.

Wey arm robber go kill drivers and collect their cars.

Wey Bolt go block your account anyhow without due process.

Wey go depreciate your esteem and self worth in a twinkle of an eye.

Wey go increase your stress level and damage your health.


And I can go on and on

But make I stop. I no wan discourage people

Depending on the city u live in. Lagos, port harcourt, benin city, ibadan are the best cities for cab biz.

Well said. You guys are either poorly paid or you were entry level, either case, I am not contesting this as I have limited facts. However years ago as an SBE (Senior Banking Executive) my pay would not justify me leaving the job and doing Uber. The only issues i would have complained about are (1) humongous targets and (2) time constraints leading to lack of rest and stress. Please note, I was a back office staff (Legal Support Services). All in, whatever works. I was only clearing the fact that the OP was a contract staff (and his write-up also confirmed it).

1. I wish I was back office, pushing papers and drinking tea. You just can't try it as a marketer. We live with threats on a daily.

2. You were an SBE, on a normal back office and people close to head office see promotions on a regular. I spent 9 years in banking and have witnessed promotion once. You may say because one is not meeting targets but forget witch hunts and cliques and man know in the system. There was a time, every branch was asked to nominate 3 people per branch for promotion and you have a foolish manager that will nominate only one in her branch and dash two friends promotion from other branches. What will you do? A guy I left behind joined banking in 2007 when I was in 300level, today he just an SBO, after 15years ie just 3 promotions in 15years! One day the bank will wake up and do "age to grade" sacking.

3. The pay is poor. Not commensurate with the work load. Thank God for UK visa and Canada, bank staff these days resign two months after promotion and relocate with their families to UK (2 of my colleagues did it, to he'll with your promotion after I don wait tire, now Visa come out, u wan tie me down with promotion), lol. There was celebration in a certain bank head office March this year by people who put their names in sack list so that they will be paid off and they all had visas to Canada and UK.
