enyinna4:That is to show her how wicked most Nigerian employers are. Why not dump the job and concentrate on your exams? Your future is more important than gluing yourself to a high paying job that may never elevate you beyond what you presented as qualification. Move on. |

I had a similar case.Mine was that I was in another establishment and completed almost the Msc programme and suddenly I got a job in a bigger company.My challenge was how will I write my last Msc exam,because my plead to go for the exam fell on my work HOD's deaf ears.To the glory of God,my GM operations who stays at our headquarters in Lagos intervened and that was how I wrote that exam.It was not easy as I engaged in series of fasting and praying to curry favour in the sight of my HOD and finally my GM directive nullify his resistance to permit me to go for the exam.Thanks be to God.Your friend,can try God. |

MarryMeee:lack of decorum is not the fact that she wants to move up in life, the lack of decorum is in telling your boss you want time off to go do some exams which is exams on a course the company did not send you on. |

sukkot:yeah but neither did she sign the employment contract and stated that she is selling her soul to the company, she is still entitled to annual leave and she can use her leave days to write her exams. Last time i checked bosses are not allowed to just refuse someone leave simply because they can, its violating her right to fair labour practices. You have to have a sound reason for it. Its shocking we still have people who believe in human slavery like this. I dont know what makes you think simply because you have employed someone you have the right to stop her from expanding her knowledge. This is the reason why Nigeria is in the crisis its in right now. How else will you improve and expand your business if your employees aren't allowed to expand their knowledge? Is it not retarded? |
| Re: Please I Need Your Advice On What To Tell My Friend by sukkot: 9:12am On Jul 24, 2015 |
MarryMeee:she wasnt on leave, she asked for time off. read the story. |
| Re: Please I Need Your Advice On What To Tell My Friend by MarryMeee: 9:14am On Jul 24, 2015 |
sukkot:employees aren't allowed to take off days in Nigeria? She can simply have the days taken off her annual leave days. |
| Re: Please I Need Your Advice On What To Tell My Friend by sukkot: 9:16am On Jul 24, 2015 |
MarryMeee:if every employee took off days willy-nilly the company will fold up. you have your annual leave, arrange your exams around your annual leave. its just as simple as that. you can take emergency off days for things like falling sick, but not to go do exams. |
| Re: Please I Need Your Advice On What To Tell My Friend by MarryMeee: 9:22am On Jul 24, 2015 |
sukkot:you call taking days off for exams taking days off willy-nilly? This is someone getting higher qualifications that could actually be put to good use in the company. Some people are simply blinded by their narrow-mindedness. If she wanted days off to go on a holiday that would be one thing but to refuse someone days off because they have academic exams is simply _retarded. I don't blame the millions of Nigerians that go abroad to seek greener pastures. They might as well go where their skills could actually make an impact as opposed to just being slaved away for peanuts at the end of the day. |
| Re: Please I Need Your Advice On What To Tell My Friend by sukkot: 9:29am On Jul 24, 2015 |
MarryMeee:listen here woman, this is exactly why employers usually dont like employing black people. you have this entitled mentality. if you dont like the companies policies you can quit. why would the company give you time off to go take exams for a course that they did not send you on ? for what reason ? if they wanted to put you to good use for their company they know the courses they will send you on. you doing courses on your own without their consent is not for their benefit. you think they are stupid ? they know if you get a better job offer after your course you will bounce and leave them, so quit that nonsense about you helping them when you get the qualification. |

enyinna4:If her boss refuses then she should leave the job. Any job that intentionally blocks you from growing academically is not a good job. Before you quit, you may want to consult a person who is a boss (Manager or Director or senior supervisor, etc) over your boss, if your boss is not the overall boss. |

sukkot:you are the one with a backward mentality so you think every company must enslave people in such a way that they can move ahead with move on with life at some point. You are the type that thinks that entrapping a person in one position for the next 20yrs is humane thing to do. Its in the human nature to want to achieve move and move on with life. Look at what your slave mentality has put the Nigerian economy into. If you idea (enslavement) was at all good why do you have many people running away from office jobs just to go do menial jobs in a first world countries where they will earn double? The problem in this world is black people like you who believe is suffocating fellow black people and violating their labour rights and keeping them in one position so they will never grow. Thats all you are good for. |

She should simply arrange for someone to sit for the exam on her behalf That's the most realistic approach right now |
