I Became Happier Immediately After I Left My Banking Job – Nigerian Man by DyshApp(op): 11:30pm On Jan 23, 2025
A Nigerian man, Quadri Yakubu, has disclosed how he became a happier man and husband after he quit his banking job.

Taking to his Twitter page, the young man stated that the distance from his house and his workplace was very far which put some pressure on him at work.

He disclosed that he had marital issues when he used to work at the bank but he became more happier when he stopped his banking job.

He wrote,

“Immediately I left my banking Job, I noticed that I became happier and more loving to my wife and kid,” he wrote in a Facebook post.

Imagine living in Mararaba and working in Jabi, as if the pressure from Madam ND and Co is not enough, the Mararaba -AYA traffic will add to your troubles! The work pressure almost made me run mad.

Whenever I get home, the greeting from my wife seems like a disturbance, but all that changed the very day I dropped their ID card for them.

The kind of work you do has a way of affecting your mental health. I have suffered too much in this life, I deserve some enjoyment! It’s not easy anywhere, please don’t allow anyone to mess with your mental health.


Omo some jobs will make you loose peace of mind🤒

The banking sector is nothing more than corporate or modernized slavery.

Women bear the brunt of this slavery, but who will enlighten them?

Nothing surpasses the satisfaction of possessing something reliable and transparent that generates income under your control.

This is where Trading Estate comes in tho.

Exactly,
you get the point now.

But when they wear coat or suits we envy them.

But why is it that women suffer the most?

What are their problems?
Time is an incredibly valuable asset for women.

Yet, time is often not on their side. These blue-collar organizations exploit their ignorance, buying their time for a few pieces of silver, only to discard them once they've been drained of all their worth.

At that point, "Had I known" becomes the new anthem of a disillusioned president, echos of regret.

Hope money dey sha enter?

Else, he'll understand the difference between work pressure and hunger pressure, when he tastes both.

Life is full of pressure. The koko is learning to manage it and choosing the pressure that's worthwhile...

Well said. Hopefully he left with a plan. A family man cannot be stupid not to have a plan B.

Banking job those years was one of my priorities. Infact, I studied Banking and finance because of that. My interest in the Banking job Faded away completely from the recapitalisation of Soluo in those days and the yearly Mass Sack of Bankers mostly in December. Thank God for my Government job o. Bro, continue enjoying Ur peace of mind o. Hope you don get another job sha or u don establish ur businesses before quitting the Bank.
Re: I Became Happier Immediately After I Left My Banking Job – Nigerian Man by hatchy:
That's good decision you made..

Meanwhile, I hope you have made alternative arrangements to cover the gap of the bank salaries because your wife may be happy now but give her four weeks, she would sing a different tone.
Women are in love with money, not in love with Man

No Money, No Honey.
