Na so life suppose be...... Imagine working for a boss who sees and respects you and you on your own parts replicates same too.........your work go dey sweet you to dey do.

Reminds me of one mumu bookshop sales boys work I did some years ago.....The bookshop owner made it mandatory that I must be putting on corporate wears to work from Mondays to Fridays....Untop salary wey no pass 10k . I had no option then,but had to manage it until I saved up some money and started working in my bros bakery then...... Funniest thing was that immediately I stopped working there,that was the end of his bookshop cuz he couldn't find any other person who was ready to dance to his tone

Great. Gen Z taking over and showing them what should be done

This is what I call true professionalism. It's all about finding the right work and life balance.

In saner climes, they have long since done away with the outdated practice of spending long hours sitting in an office/cubicle/workstation with little personal time left for yourself.

In the modern workplace true productivity comes from effective time management and not the drudgery that out of touch Nigerian employers love to impose on their workers.

What a good one, make sure you deliver also and don't misuse the opportunity... God bless your boss

E no pass likethis wey make google where them dey today... free food, gym, take naps, infact, you are locked in so that you dont want to go home...

God bless you!

In this hot climate, some people will now wear suits, all in the name of looking corporate...

How does wearing something that belongs to another culture make you look corporate where you can wear your native and look okay.

Ahswear this is clean. (In d words of a Gen Z)

If workers are treated like this why wont i be loyal to my boss


Advice
Please try and not make them lazy and check their productivity.
The truth is no one will want to leave that office

This is the new normal. It's just like working from home which has come to stay.

The earlier the 'older bosses' adapt, the better for their businesses

Life no suppose hard AI will take over soon , better go learn one or two skill ooo😁

This too will pass.... ....... T

This is just a marketing gimmick


Now people will start looking for the name of the company

So they resume by 10am and close when?

That's is good but what delivers the huge result might not be related to how simple he made it sound.

Where are the impromptu meetings? The overtime deliverables? And all sort of.

Gen Z doesn't exist anywhere, it's all human made to create a viral niche.

That resumption time is key....Lagos traffic is crazy

COMRADES, you see that nap of a thing eh, na em make me like this guy post, I don't joke with it during break time in the office, no be work work work all day long, our body deserves some rest sometimes

Na marketing and advertising be the tech job? Nawa ooh

Well said.

One of the things that disgusts me the most for we lawyers is the wig and gown. It is such a ridiculous colonial outfit especially in this weather. In most court rooms, lawyers sit like Christmas goats while wearing a garb meant for European courts of centuries gone by.

It is sickening.
I intend to present a petition to the Bar Association to start the process to drop it.

Don't mind him. Lmaooo. They close by 2pm so his staff can beat traffic and arrive home very early.

See his red eyes... After dem don smoke loud, na to come online dey form another thing.


Well, experience more first and we the ancestors will want to listen to ya talk.

But me no care about dress codes much, but anything sagging, as long as you work for this ancestor, minus it from ya life. I have an employee with dreadlocks and ear rings. My female customers like seeing him even more than my own Royal Self. Some even dey call the werey husband already and I heard rumors say e dey do some of dem.

The mad boy.. smh

Work flow will be much better in this our generation, bosses go learn to respect staff, because if u do any how ur worker fit resign buy GLE in the next 3 months of active personal work. My bro tell me say the day em tell em boss say em wan resign go chase em dream, the man told him, that he's always welcome to work with them anytime he changes his mind. Na so life suppose be, and sooner Nigerian bosses go learn say man no be Jacky.

Trigger?

Lolzz

No one cares.

Even the businesses that owns the very media that made you derive your identity as “GenZ,” that is Facebook, TikTok, etc, still have a CORPORATE CULTURE.

Just because of some few bombing and cash out, you dey form wetin we no sabi.

God bless my Boss. ✂️ ✂️
One of the best around no be mouth.

Lol.. go check Microsoft,dem do pass you and at the end,na AI wan take over their Jobs.

It's a good thing though.

Unrelated to this GEN Z thread...

I kicked off my career in one of the top financial institutions. We resumed at 7:20am sharp, and you don’t close until the vault balances - technically, there was no closing time. You fit enter branch by 8pm, all man go dey face computer like the day just started.

Dress code? Non-negotiable. Strictly blue or grey suits, paired with white or blue shirts, with black shoes. Two Saturdays every month were always taken from you either for one training, Monthly Review or ATM monitoring.

The environment? Fast-paced, unpredictable, and unforgiving. One minute you’re in operations, the next you’re shipped to another department—no notice, no excuses. And you’re expected to perform like a pro in weeks.

Targets were wild: ATM cards, Internet Banking, account reactivations, deposit mobilisation, and even shares. Imagine being in operations and still having a deposit target! 😅

Truth is, I hated that job. The atmosphere was always “hot,” even with the AC blasting. But looking back, it shaped me. It was a battlefield that drilled you, stretched you, and squeezed out your best.

If you could survive there, you could survive anywhere.
If you could make it there, you could make it anywhere.

That place was tough… but it made me tougher.

I always stood out among my peers in all the other organisations that I joined afterwards. My commitment to work, passion for getting things done, dedication, dressing, my carriage, customer service skills, email/telephone etiquette, etc.

Sometimes.. It's good to start your career like a soldier!

Awoooooooooooooooooooooo!

Whatever you are doing in this life, always remember your God.

The day of Judgement is definitely coming for everyone. Jesus is the only way.
Have you accepted Jesus as your Lord and Personal saviour?

I can imagine. I sweat a lot from my scalp, if I was a lawyer that wig would have become wet sponge everytime I wear it.

Good for him. Nothing wrong with that sofar it produces the results u want.
