my quest to learn fashion design drove my thoughts far as to how to raise the needed amount of money to pursue my dream, due to my family background I knew the only way I could achieve it is to look for a small job and save from there. few months ago I was linked by a friend to a man who needed a secretary in his establishment, having attended an interview I was given the job and placed on 20k monthly pay, little did I know that was the beginning of a new chapter of problem. at first I was very comfortable with the environment not knowing the man I work for is a devil.

my boss abuses me at will and does have time correct me when I make mistakes, I tried talking to him that it is my first time of working as a secretary and I am open for corrections.my first month pay was 14k instead of 20k with an excuse that I waste paper and data which of a truth I only use them in line with the job.
he suddenly started being friendly(giving me transport and buying snacks) which was surprising but knowing who I was dealing with I was also cautious until he opened up one day that he likes me and want a secret romance which I turned him down(he is older than my late father) and the real devil came alive. I was sometimes pay 13k monthly and had to endure series of harrasment that I sometimes wakeup to cry at night knowing what I had to go through at work. while my search for another job yielded no result I had to endure the torture. on Friday while I was typing a document he gave me the previous day,he came in and started shouting at me and stretch his hands and touched my breast,I stood up and pushed him to the ground and went straight home and later returned with my resignation letter. Terrible experience I will never forget in my life. THANK GOD

There are 3 sides to every stories.

Tag your boss let's hear his own side of the story.

kernniejay:
Most time all these male bosses that deliberately make life miserable for their female workers are secretly interested in sleeping with them. They only become harsh to instil some fear in a female staff so that when they eventually make their intention known, she would be too scared to disobey them. This one is not only a molester but also a potential rapist, thank God you moved.

Untop 20k o..

lovemaths:
You should even sue him for sexual harassment and incomplete payment of salaries. I wished you kicked him on his balls.

sue ? you think this is America? you think the poor get justice in this country nigeria? the case go use 100 yrs in court or will be dismissed self

I thank God for u.if he truely like u,he should av double ur salary or atleast overpay u.not deducting.

Typical Nigerian bosses. Always feeling entitled. Next time shout at him and throw the papers at him.

That so bad of him and where you able to save any reasonable amount and for your fashion matter is not compulsory you learn in a big establishment like that and I pray God will answer all your secret prayers and your heart desires shall come to pass

Until I hear from your boss.


For the meantime, sorry.

The man is a Coward and congy wanted to finish his life that's why he settles for office romance. Thank God that you didn't succumb to the pressure why don't try to learn tailoring or any other skills instead of looking for work

superCleanworks:
You did not try at all. You messed up.

so you only pushed him to the ground and left?
You should have kicked him in the balls too so that his wife and kids will ask him why he is walking funny.

Ah ahh? As a man you can say this ? Lol

Best decision...your sanity comes first

Aghxhvt:
Ok!! Good for you.. Start bombing

See how you openly displayed your email without thinking about the repercussions. Even if you want to be a low life criminal, have sense at least ah

you should've resigned the moment he asked you out

femiasaolu2014:


I guessed you missed the part where instead of the agreed #20k/month he paid her #16k and #13k?

I need to confirm something.

How much was the OP spending on transportation to and from work, lunch inclusive?

Isnt it more than #20k/month?

Even in Oshogbo, or up North, you would spend more than your salary.

Some jobs are clearly not worth doing, now combine it with verbal and sexual abuse?

You ought to get boys to PHUCK up the old man

Reminds me of someone who used to go to work on Saturdays from Iyana Ipaja to Surulere only for #1k.

God forbid!!!

nawa oh. We dey see chomtin for this obodo naija.

I can relate with what you posted.



But that was a long time ago



Next time, try and avoid sole proprietorship businesses headed by men in Nigeria, but if you can't, only work through referral, someone who knows someone you know.


During interviews, reduce the amount of personal information you will share. These people try to look for ways they can trap you.





Please don't be discouraged.

Some people are just heartless!!!

He is a crazy man and I thank God for rescuing you from the claws of Satan... such wicked fella

People are suffering in that country and it's not funny.

Even as a lady, who you would think some boyfriend/husband might be dashing money, why would an employer pay someone #16k/month?

A full-grown adult and not a toddler?

It's better if he should declare himself a slaver and look for free indentured labor.

Phuck that hell hole called Nigeria

You for set am up with video coverage and through that get the upper hand. Good thing though you've left. Never let anybody compromise you or make you feel less of yourself

Whenever I get tired of this constant hustle in the west and think bout my other option having to go back to that Hell hole called Naija, I just take my L and keep it going... naija is not an option... it's sad but there is more hope for Banana republic now than Nigeria

Did you just say reasonable amount of money, from how much salary naw...
