How Do I Respond To My MD? by Meerahbel(op): 6:00am On Sep 15, 2024
From DM
Dear NL,
I recently got a job of 2.4m per annum but before joining I was informed via email that if I stay a year, I would be given a 20% salary increament.

Upon receipt of the offer letter the 20% increament was not stated, also no discussion of me working on public holidays but now I am asked to work on public holidays as according to the organization they run a mini-mart & they are a private organization. As I did not get the offer letter until 4 days of resumption.

I am yet to sign the offer letter, how do I respond to the MD via email as I know my services are needed.

Thank you for your anticipated response.

You made a mistake by resuming before seeing the offer letter
2. Always ask all the necessary questions during the interview stage inorder to get clarity
3. Respond to your boss in this manner

Subject: Clarification on Offer Letter

Dear HR

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to request clarification on some aspects of the offer letter I received for the xyz position.

Specifically, I would appreciate clarification on the following:

1. "The 20% agreement provided I am with the organization for a year"
2. "We did not have an agreement as to me working on public as it not stated in the offer letter"
3.

Could you please provide me with more information or clarify these points?

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.

Best regards,

Oga them go whine you for here o. Better take that job nothing wrong with working on public holidays knowing that it’s a mart and mostly holidays they even make more sales. Secondly the increment issues can be resolved when you resume work. Don’t start acting greedy from day one cause people here that will advice against the job will gladly take a pay cut to fill in the same role.

You are the few smart ones on this forum, because I remember when I was desperate in need of a job, read where someone didn't want to take the job, I quietly message him and requested he link me up, I took a 10% pay cut & on numerous occasions he has sent mail to the company mail requesting if the job is still available, unfortunately I have access to the mail and I was seeing all his pleas.

We have 31 public holidays this year alone. This is something you can discuss unofficially so as to make you MD agree to your terms. Be diplomatic about it as there are no Jon out there.
