Good morning fam,
After my resignation on 24-09-2022 which I posted here. Some faulted me for not taking my salary and leave without notice

Yea I felt bad but I served in a very vital department that I had alot of their properties in my care. And the firm is known for taking up cases like this up and declaring you "missing" with your pictures all over their branches.

This can tarnish one's image or even cause my new employer to dismiss me , so I had to do all neccessary documentation

After my resignation
The HR asked me to send my IDs, handbooks and other documents to the HQ in the East instead of the one here in Lagos where i stay

I sent it accross to them , after some weeks when I called to know if they recieved it
She told me that they got only the handbook and nothing else (I sealed all these together)
I stood my ground and was ready to travel for this
After two weeks, she admitted that they have seen every of the documents

My new job took my time because I have been on training
I never called to ask of my salary, when I in Dec, she assured me that they are working on it grin grin grin grin grin

On Monday this week, I was ready to meet the MD because of this issue
I called the lady again, she was ranting that i should allow them to work on my benefits and all that , I raised my voice too and told her that I only worked with them for 6 months , i really wonder what benefits she is calculating and I am ready to meet the MD because of this and that she should have it on mind that I am not forfeiting this salary for ANYTHING.

She dropped the call, later the secretary called me to assure me that they are working on it

Yesterday my pension account was credited grin
I have to wait for my salary at the end of this month
I will be patient till March , because she once told me that it is after 6 months I should be worried not "disturbing" her everyday

Till then

Another tale of being hosed or jobbed by a Nigerian employer in terms of paying last or less than a month salary. You can't say you worked without this happening to you sigh. Let it go. They now wonder why their businesses never get dedicated workers. This is one of the reasons.

Follow up with them you will get it. But the truth remain anytime you resigning in Nigeria own companies try and collect your salary to avoid issues like this coz average Nigeria business owners always sad when is time to pay salary and gratitude.
That is it! Best advice! If you want to resign in Nigeria, collect your salary before you resign and it should be with immediate effect so as not to lose much salary to them!

I wonder why Nigerian businesses behave funny when their staff is about to leave. I appreciate sincerity and I try not to shortchange them for any reason cos of other staffs that might be watching.

Sometimes, these contacts are still needed and will save your organisation agreat deal.
As an employer, you are like a needle in haystack in terms of that behavior. Most employers hose their leaving employees these days.

I've come to understand that no one is irreplaceable. I believe the person leaving will give me an opportunity to work with another - which could be better...though not always. Just allow them go in peace. I have more peace with that.

You can call the MD when your salary is not paid when the time to pay has elapsed.

Not just Nigerian-owned but Nigerian-run companies. I worked for an Indian-owned organisation but run by a set of incompetent, vindictive women. I did all I should do and even went overboard to make sure there was proper transition and yet they didn't pay me. I thought of following them up but later decided to drop it. The women who did this are lucky. I would have dealt with them but somehow I believe God wanted me to let it go. It was a serious temptation to speak against them. That's all I needed to do, speak against them but I let it go.
