Guy, you too much.
Renumeration means counting again or recounting while remuneration is some payments made to someone for services rendered. This Buhari holiday sweet Wella.

Thanks for the insight.
We learn everyday.

I would say Teaching profession.

Gone are the days people used to Respect and admire Teachers. Today, teachers are the Most Mistreated, disrespected and neglected profession especially in Nigeria.
Ladies are unwilling to get married to a man who is a teacher because they are perceived as being poor and always broke. Teachers aren't sufficiently renumerated in today's Nigeria.

Secondly, I think Law. Lawyers are now called "Charge and Bail".
Legal profession, mostly the judges and magistrates, etc

Police work

Pastors, Imams and traditional Priests

@CJStarz.

I owe you One hundred thousand Naira. If you are interested, please send me your bank details together with a phone number and name of city and I'll send it to you as soon as I receive these.

Most times, it is not about our mistakes or the things we say or do wrong. It is more about how we react when things are pointed out to us. You have been impressive per above. It takes strength of character to accept correction, especially in public and more especially when a Nigerian. I do not know many Nigerians who will respond the way you did. Most will not take time to digest and then respond. They will simply dig in and react with anger and insults. I applaud you and hope you will continue this way.

For we will each make mistakes. What matters is how we react when notified. Well done. You have made my day.

Law... Lawyers. Judges especially.The way our Judiciary has been pocketed by politicians and money bags is a damn. Shame.

My guy…you are TOTALLY wrong on this one. Photography, videographers and media in general is gaining more respect daily…your mention of drone does not hold hold water at all…a drone assisting for aerial view doesn’t replace videographers altogether now

Teaching can only be a complete joke in a nation that endorses Illiteracy, and celebrates dullards with illegal access to wealth and influence.

The Professional that has badly fallen low remains the Military.

Growing up in the 90s, joining the army was something that was highly revered and widely celebrated.

Judiciary and police...our Judicial system is a joke and in a complete state of quagmire... while the police is deeply rooted in curruption right from 80s, but seems improving lately... oh' it seems I've forgot that law is meant for the poor..while police is a poor man's friend too.

I 100% support your above post. The guy exhibited an extreme level of maturity and that is class. You rarely see such these days and it is always commendable to see this even in a faceless forum, where it is easier to resort to insult or to unnecessarily justify their position. I salute such level of discipline and a well rounded positive view.

We need to encourage and promote such of behaviour and discipline. Keep up the great work @CJStarz

The word is REMUNERATION not RENUMERATION. Letter M before letter N.
Thank you very much for this. Even though I wasn't the one who made the misspelling, I was corrected.

Every three to four market days you people will come back with this stale question.

Hello! There is no profession that is a joke. There may be many jokers but no profession is a joke!


Let's grow up on this site!!

The good days are gone.

Market over saturated with extremely cheap resources to get job done.

With advancements AI, it will be a big nail in the coffin.
