This story looks entirely like mine.

I left the job after 15 months and resumed in LASU. Currently serving and my PPA looks like a full time job already.

Just strive to grow, nature pays diligence. Efforts will definitely pay off.

And this is exactly why most manufacturing companies prefer to recruit OND levers than BSc, the rationale is that.
1. OND graduates can be employed for less there by cutting company cost.
2. They can be easily controlled and compliance percentage is 80
3. All staff will be trained once employed wether OND or BSc, it just boils down to individual self intelligence and field experience is not the same as what you were thought in school.
I know how many BSc grads I've trained on field Operation in my line of work.

Thank you sir.

I cannot take up that job, N150,000 monthly salary is too small!

Last year, a fresh graduate rejected the job I got him

I asked him to take the job for 6 months so that he can gather experience for his next job, but he didn't listen

He is still at home trusting God

I have had to advise a lot of graduates and professionals regarding whether to take up a role where the salary is small.

Some think the salary is belittling and not up to their worth.

I have also seen a lot of people on social media advising graduates not to settle for less which I disagree.

Your decision depends on whether you have a job at hand or not.

I believe it's better to accept a job with low salary than sitting at home to do nothing.

Once the salary can cater for your feeding and transport, you are fine.

No experience is a waste and no matter how bad a job is, you will learn something even if it is tolerance and perseverance.

You have an experience to point to.

You can't ask for a lion share (Salary) with a fish brain (no experience)

At the earliest days of my career,

I was living in Mowe -Ibafo axis, Arepo to be precise, working at Yaba and the salary was small,

I do wake up as early as 4:30am to enjoy cheap transport to Ojota

And BRT to Yaba were cheaper compared to 14 seater Bus.

Then, I do take standing in the BRT bus because it is cheaper than taking a seat

Infact standing was my hobby ��

I will get to the office 6am and wait till 8am when other staff will resume.

The pay was small, I worked as late as 8pm but the experience was BIG and worth it.

Later, I joined another company with double salary.

The rest is history today,

If you are in doubt of taking a job because of the pay, accept the offer,

Give your best, learn as much as you can, don't get carried away and keep your eye on your goal.

Remember, if you are too big to do small things, you will be too small to do big things

Do you agree?

When I read through your statement I knew you were lying heavily.

Both standing and sitting you pay the same amount for ticket to enter.

BRT never charges different fair for sitting and standing.

CodeTemplar:
He could have accepted it and just see it as a intern role to learn. It is better to ignore it in his CV if he feels it will downgrade him in the eyes of future prospective employers.

Penny wise, Pounds foolish. He is a foolish man. God doesn't answer the prayer of foolishness. I guess, he has someone fending for him.

Take whatever job you can and develop your resume.

Keep body and soul together till you get your dream job.

Nobody should be choosy on jobs to accept in the current economic situation of our country now.

Above the salary, the guy needs the experience instead of sitting idle at home.

What are you saying?? You are contradicting yourself!
You that has been working for over 20yrs, how are you earning the same as a fresh graduate?
