That's great. It makes me wonder why black Americans complain so much about racism if whites are that nice and welcoming

I work remotely for a tech company in US. They've never forgotten to pay my salary on 15th and 30th of every month and when we have a zoom meeting, they treat me like everyone else. Respectful and considerate. There were times when my internet will mess up my zoom meetings, they don't get upset or shout. Infact they joke about my internet being the slowest in the room all the time. It's been fun in the last year and half. Plus I get promoted too. I didn't expect that since I'm a remote staff.

Working with the Chinese will put your english fluency in jeopardy... you will forget your lexicons and replace dem with "i go , i come, i eat, i bath etc...

all these Third world multinationals sef with their useless extreme capitalist tendencies still go cost you IELTS if you spend above 3 years with them.

If you apply online for 100 jobs, there's a good chance you'll get 100 rejections and no human contact, which will make you burn out quickly. However, you can't send 100 good messages on LinkedIn, without having at least 15 responses. Whether the responses are favorable or unfavorable, you still get to interact with people. As a result, you may learn something new, receive encouragement, or even be given the chance to interview.

15 responses out of 100 mean a 15% success rate in your networking.

Networking is more productive in your job search, do not ignore it!

Happy job search.

Chinese would teach you time management, you call them master, disregard for your health and we'll being.

Indians would teach you how to manage resources no matter how little (They are racist)

Lebanese treat you like pieces of trash

Sri Lanka they are coming soon

Americans, damn the best place to work in my honest opinion, they work hard and party hard, you call them by their first names, excellent working environment

British, they don't joke with vacation/ or paternity or maternity leave. No pressure at all.

Nigerian depending on the type of company, you work like Jackie, no leave and can be sacked for the most minutest of things (avoid businesses owned by pastors). In some, you only get leave when probably there is a demise of your parents or you getting married.

Indians are so foolish. Unfortunately, I am also a racist. I just don't get comfortable with them. I work for an Indian company as a Power, Instrumentation and Control Project lead but they will respect you if you actually know and can defend your nitch anytime anyday.
Be genuine with yourself and don't be a snake to your fellow country men. Don't snitch on your brothers because if the indians actually discover that you're smart and good, they will want to draw you closer and use you as a snitcher.
I have always hate systematic racism and over the time, I became a racist.
My memory of working with them interm of how I handled everyone of them is always great whenever I look back and think about it.
The indians complain that I m hot tempered because I cant tolerate one incompetent person to make me doubt my potential or loose my confidence.

Fresh out of NYSC in 2018, I started a remote job in the blockchain industry as a social media moderator. I was hired by a Canadian firm but my department was headed by a boss from Sri Lanka.

Honestly this Sri Lanka guy is too good, Infact whatever I am today he played a great part in it. Cool headed guy, respects every workers. If a worker proves stubborn or incompetent, he will discharge him or her in the most polite way.

Moving into 2019, the company packed up due to bad management from the top management board. I stayed out of work for more than 3 months. Somehow the Sri Lanka guy had special interest in me.

He hit me up one day and ask if I had interest to become a blockchain content developer and writer. I responded positively even though I wasn't even proficient in writing. Omo! This guy started off by giving me writing gigs and teaching me a lot of writing styles and all the technical jargons. Within 6 months, I had already hit the runway and flying. We did a lot of content together, till date we are still in contact - does one or two jobs for him once in a while.

The big break is that, the blockchain content field he led me into recently landed me a job with another firm for N700k monthly salary.

It's been 4 years now, still, me and this Sri Lanka guy never meet face to face but we communicate every week grin

They are still good foreign bosses out there.
bros please can you link me up? I'm interested in writing and VA gigs. I am tech savvy. Please help me
I can be your PA I am not going to be asking for too much. I just need experience and wanna survive.

Another wrong set of bosses to work with, are white South Africans, those guys are racist to the core. They can exploit the system and deprive you of your entitlements, citing our lax labour laws etc. Worked with one terrible one like that - Dennis Poitgeter, Las las his ass was fired. Dennis wherever you de, make thunder fire your left nut.
Why his left nut sac in particular? It seems he traumatized you with it abi? Did he teabag his left sac in your mouth? cheesy

They should understand where most of us are coming from, a traumatized kind of place.

It would be good if you can help some of us get this gig here in Nigeria.

A little bit of dollars to go around would go a long way in boosting Nigeria's economy.
