How Do I Get Over This Job Loss by Belawy(op): 10:41am On Mar 21, 2023
Folks it's being over a month now that I lost my job due to little excuse. I was asked to tender my resignation letter because I went for prayer .

This is really tearing me apart and is eating me every day because I'm afraid of the Impact of this job loss on my family. I am steadily entering depression.

Pele. If everyone left their post to go and pray anytime they wished, would the organization function? Even Aso Rock that has a chapel and mosque have those spaces closed and only opened at the appropriate time. If you're Muslim and have to pray 5 times daily, I advise you adjust.

This should inspire you to embrace entrepreneurship where only you can sack yourself. If you become an employee again tomorrow, next tomorrow, they can fire your silly ass again.

Good luck

So sorry about the loss @Belway. Many of us have experienced it at one point or the other. It'll be appreciated if you give more details as to what happened.

Quick one;
Is it a one-man business?
Is it heavily colored tribe or religious-wise?
Is Office politics very rife there?

Pick up your passion and start a YouTube channel on it. It only needs 6 months of commitment and you will forget where you started from.

Start a small business with the little you have
Re: How Do I Get Over This Job Loss by Nobody: 11:31am On Mar 21, 2023
You didn't tell the whole story, you told the part that buys you sympathy.

How often have you been leaving your job to go for prayer?

You allowed your faith to come in between your job?

You have the weekend to go to prayers all you want, but not skipping job to go pray.

Good luck with another job , but separate your job from prayer activity during the week.


God works and only rested after he was done.


Jesus go about working the business of his father but only returns to prayer after the day's work.

Wishing you a better opportunity but keep it with a good work ethic

Stay strong. Adversity tests the character of man; we are moulded through it. I pray that you find another job soon.

This should also be an eye-opener about the importance of investing in assets to generate multiple streams of income for you. I hope you have realized and start working towards.

Even the bible said it that there is time for everything so should not joke with your work because of prayers
instead you should player and plan your prayer life outside your work premises,
if I was the one who employees you and you come to my office and read bible I will sack you
because office is not the right place to do that when you go home you can read your Bible when you come to work you do office work

You lost your job because you went for prayers? Friday muslim prayers or you abandoned your job and went to the mountain for days ? Which one?

Even if it is teaching Job, evening lesson or house teacher, get something doing bro...
It may not pay you, the desired pay but
It will keep your mind and soul busy bro.
Just get productively busy and avoid mourning and Wailing.....
You will soon stand tall again soon
All the best bro

There is a time for everything.

Don't deliberately fall into depression. Getting out can be very difficult.

If you are in Lagos send your update CV to urbanesearch@gmail.com.

Imagine my driver telling me he went to charge phone. Phone he can easily charge in the vehicle when he is going to deliver an order. Due that flimsy excuse, I lost an order. I sacked the guy. Someone will have sleepless nights to run a business and you think you can come and misbehave in the job.
