Remain in that hotel job. You may not believe it but you won't earn 100k as salary in ten years working for state government, unless you work for state hospitals management board and I think the ministry of justice.

With your present job, you can land a better job someday either with private companies or with some agencies of the federal government.

What's the essence of a job with security that doesn't pay?

Well, if you don't like money, you can join. I am guessing your salary may not even be up to 50k as a level 8 step 2 state worker. In some states yet to start payment of 30k minimum wage, you won't earn up to 40k.

Think before you leap.

Just 20minutes ago, l went downstairs to collect a cloth l gave the laundry guy in my hotel to wash last night against today's service.

At the counter, the manager was asking a lady closing account how much was made yesterday from the swimming pool, she said 8k. The manager said write 5k.
Is it this little little stuff that made you confused over a government job with security, gratuity and time for side hustle?

N.B- why will you put all your personal info(phone no and Twitter handle) on your nairaland profile? It's very risky except you yourself have some malicious intentions!

funshint:
You shouldn't be asking this type of question. A private hotel that might decide to lay you off at anytime compared to a govt agency. Not even talking about the stress...even if the govt work doesn't pay like the hotel work I'll still urge you to leave. The govt work assures you some level of job security and peace of mind. Overtime you get promotions, opportunity to build your career and other benefits we might not know now. The work-life balance of govt work is also very okay; majorly you'll only work Monday-Friday while you have your weekends to rest and do other meaningful things important to you life, as against hotel work where you're working like a slave. Except you no like better thing go for the govt work.

Are u insane?

If after the advice from he nairalander above, you still seek another validation then you should do what so ever you want to.

Did you read the post at all.?

First off, he already the state government job is to pay equivalent salary. He is just trying to see which one has more benefits aside salary.

Secondly, the state job is in the Internal Revenue Service which would definitely have more perks than what's obtainable in that hotel.

Finally, above all, he would have personal time off work for himself. He can use that time to arrange a personal hustle for himself. Also, the opportunity to meet and interact with his federal counterparts which lead to transfer of service to the federal arm is there.

This look exactly like what I wrote about 2 years ago, the OP just made minor adjustments. Since I saw this, I have been looking for the particular thread I created then but can't fine it, I have used several usernames since that time anyway... I am sure it is copied from there, I wish the Op can point me to that my thread, wanted to see the advice I got then.

However, I left the hotel and never regretted, I am way bigger in 2 years than the 9 years I spent in hospitality.

So Op, if this is truly your story, please go with the IRS.
