Teaching.
I was 21, fresh outta university.
On the second day the principal sent me to go buy chilled coke and eggroll. Emphasis on chilled. The next day I didn't show up.
Pay was about 20k.

Rules and regulation was longer than River Niger. On some days they dressed like penguins. Other days, pink, purple shirt...all with black skirt/trouser. I was young, but I knew staying in such job was disastrous.
I can't laugh... Omo teaching job will stain your white. Dressed as Penguin got me laughing that must be on Mondays White and Black person go come look like hotel receptionist. It's better you left before they turn you into one

What kind of restaurant do you operate?
Did you employ workers or operating on your own(mama-put style)?
I have about 6 workers and it's not mama put. If you are in Abuja you can visit us and see for yourself.

Started as a private school teacher after NYSC in 2015 collecting 15k monthly but now working as a Supply Chain Professional taking home almost 600k monthly, it's been a turbulent ride but God's faithfulness overshadowed the turbulence.💯💪

Okay.

My last question... Do you know how to cook?... Do you understand the business part of it, or you just trust everything to your workers? Do you understand what am talking about!
