After spending 5-7 years in school

Nawa for our country nigeria, it shall be well with us all the graduates and undergraduates.

u cannt blame d employers after all there are creating jobs.

We all know the economy is bad. These days, most companies won't employ unless on contract basis. The best thing now is to acquire a skill and leave the peanut paying employers.

Una dey shout, how about those that do not pay(owe you salary) and pay less than half of the total money owed.
There is a school located on the the mainland in Lagos, #3500 for graduate, #2000 for non-teaching staff.

per day?

talk2yommex2000:
Bro, i no go mention any school name here but i know of a school (though not a secondary but nur/pry sch) not paying up to 6k in a month, especially for newly employed teachers. Nigeria....Good People, Great Nation.

There are many private school that pays 5000 in Bayelsa when I served, and they teach more that 3subjects

Deprofessional:



The question we should ask is how many hours does he/she put in the teaching in a week? Most of these low paying private school teachers don't really do anything in school. They hardly spend up to 2 hours in the school in a day. Some of them come to school only 2 days in a week with a lot of excuses for the other days in the week.

So, before we conclude that N6,000.00 is nothing, we also have to look at their responsibilities in their respective work places.

point made and i guess this happenes more in the rural areas

chimkaire:
You should have sounded this way earlier on. Maybe, you didn't think it through to know many are willing but can't. Oh, you big now? You can still employ those you are encouraging
Sorry, I aint employable

Story! I aired my opinion and here you are, taking panadol for other people's headache.
You ain't employable? How's that any of my business? Did I send a job offer to you?
If you're jobless, listen to my advice or look for the 6000 naira jobs.
It seems you're comfortable with it. If you got nothing better to write, stop quoting me.

YOUR INCOME VS YOUR EXPENSES.
If I ask you how many are your regular expenses, you may not be able to give an instant answer until you pick up a pen and list them. Why? They are very many! And that is just the regular and predictable ones. How about the unforeseen ones? What if I also ask, how many sources of income do you have? Will it take so long before you answer? No! Why? Not as many. May be just one or two. Again, how often and at what rate does your present source(s) grow? Is it corresponding to the rate and how often your expenses show up? Mostly no! The reality is that while expenses come uninvited, you must take conscious effort before income comes. Living has costs! That is why you hear cost of living. What are you doing at the moment to increase your income level? In a country where almost all infrastructures are provided by the individuals, you can be sure that it is not safe to depend on one income or sit and not do anything to augment your income. While it is normal to blame the government as we always do, has that in anyway changed the situation? No! Someone says the new government will change all that. Well I hope so too. That was how we have been hoping since 1999 and seriously we should keep hope alive. But while we do that, age is counting and responsibilities are mounting. I was a teenager in 1999, now I'm a father! If this new administration will usher in our age-long elusive desires I will be so glad. But, suppose they are there for the next 8years and they fail like previous ones! How old would I be by 2023? God forbid the situation remains as it is in our public universities. Will you be able to afford the cost of private school education for your children by then? If you say you will manage the public universities like that for your children not minding the incessant strikes, what of the challenge of securing admission? Even public universities education is getting costly for the average Nigerian. While we pray, lets take some steps. May God bless our efforts. Amen. What inspired this write up? I just got alerted on my UBA account from my second income as I do every two weeks and it's open to every interested person. It costs me N3,000 to start but God is using it to help me gradually. I'm available at 08065471341. Thanks for reading.

isn't dis post irrelevant to d topic being discussed?

I hate this type of posts. Which 1 be six thousand kwa?

NIGERIANS GREAT PEOPLE, GREAT NATION. SUFFERING AND SMILING! ALWAY COPING AND HOPING FOR THE BEST.

steppin:
Be self-employed, that's the best thing.

With zero capital? When you guys say self-employment, you make it sound like merely taking the decision takes care of everything.

Great to see someone setting up a realistic agenda for our lawmakers.
Go Ben Bruce, go!!!

Unemployment get level sis. U shld understand dat if a graduate could take up a job of 6k monthly to survive, you ought to understand dat no where on earth such a person can get cash to acquire any skill or start any small biz. Feeding itaelf might b a problem for d person. A person dat can boast of 10k monthly on his own will in no way take up such job, so where on earth does "start something small" (as pple normally call it) or "acquire skill" hold for such person. After all, ds skills n biz are not free in its totality.

tarh na lieee

am very serious

Be self employed by cutting some parts of your body to sale to get initial capital?
This is so serious, I have just discovered that some people live in this jungle called Nigeria, but do not know what is going on this country. Especially those who are comparably doing well.
The way this PDP led government has raped the economy of this nation for the past 16 years of oil boom, only God that knows how best to reward them.
If you go to find out the work load of most UNIVERSITY GRADUATES that earn less than #10,000 per month, it may suprise you to know that most of them are required to deliver not less than 12 lessons every day excluding assessment work and other extra curricula activities.
Some School prorietors/proprietress even insist that you attend their church if not, be ready to loose the job.

Low Salaries is something we can rather call unavoidable, so what we should be talking of is a way out.

Here are Ten Helpful Tips for Low Salary Earners

3. Find the free stuff.

In towns of any size, there are resources available for the impoverished, from free dinners at churches to food giveaways to soup kitchens. The library provides free entertainment in the forms of books, music, and internet access. There are parks, recreational activities, and countless other things even in the smallest of rural towns. Look around for the free stuff and use it – it’s there for everyone to utilize.

Are you a Nigerian in Nigeria or what exactly are you talking about up there

chimkaire:
How many people have you helped become self-employed and how many more do you intend helping now...




...kindly drop your number because some peeps are willing but got no capital for it

Self employment is the real deal. I have a lot of unemployed friends whose parents could fund them with about 50k to 200k but the problem is they don't all want to do petty business.

I've been unemployed since 2013. My last trial at Guinness late last year opened my eyes. I wasn't given a job with them after going though their various tests for the position of sales executive. After failing to secure a job with them, I started my own business with about 150k and I repaired an old car we got to transport my goods. Now I am my own sales executive and I have an employee who doesn't do much and I pay him 12k a month and he's just a school cert holder. Now I make cool money much more than Guinness could pay me as a new intake. Infact I am glad it didn't work out with them. I regret not thinking about being self employed much earlier. I feel like I just wasted 2years waiting for that dream job.

I didn't mean to bore u with my story but most graduates out there can afford the capital to start something small but we all want to work for a reputable company where we can dress corporately cos that's the dream.

Let's learn to start small. With dedication and commitment and prayer, we will get bigger.

I might as well take panadol for your headache as you don't know you have one. Drop your number ''employer of labor'' or freak off. You peeps be adding salt to injury for job seekers like they need your suggestion eeeeeeeeeeeek
Read Gboliwe's post, same worked for me...reason I quoted her before you came buzzing
Shuuuuuu off

durosegun:
In Kajola local government of Oyo State that I served, teachers are paid 5k. Even getting such jobs is extremely difficult.

Did you serve there while a PDP governor was in charge
Perhaps with Ajumobi of APC in charge they are now being paid N18,000 minimum wage.

Although that may not be the case with OYES graduates of Aregbesola who has no problem chopping N18.6 billion in Bola Ige state house

hmm! in 2005, i worked in a pry school in abk n d pay was 2.5k. currently i have a very close friend who's an m.sc but earns 30k in a school in the north.
im humbled by all these cos i complain bitterly these days even though i earn more than her n i've been finding it difficult to cope sef not to talk of people earning less than my tfare for 2weeks

N6,000 per month for a graduate? is it a genarational curse from ur family? or the witches in ur village now use ur name for praise and worship before holding their meeting. Orgwefia!

A journey of a thousand steps begins with one step.
Before you learn to fly, you must learn how to walk....you can't fly into flying.
Most people think that for you to be self-employed, you must have hundreds of thousands or millions before you can start.
But that's not true. You can start from somewhere, no matter how little.
I keep saying this, cos I passed thru it and survived, even when no one thought I couldn't. I'd rather be a labourer or driver than collect just 6k in a month.

Many many thanks for sharing your inspiring story with us here.

Not only are you self-employed, you are also an EMPLOYER of labour
Great!

I will only advise that you set your sights on GROWING your business and making it more organised/formal with time by ploughing back as much of your profit and taking on related opportunities for expansion that builds on your current STRENGTHS/competencies.
Sky is the limit
