Zirah:
Even if he doesn't know excel, one thing you should learn from his story is that honesty pays which perhaps is a quality you lack.


If this is the best u can come up with i am disappointed. He was honest and that's good. However his case is not a rule but an exception. Don't, for once, think that being honest alone without learning relevant skills will take u anywhere. I wondering if he didnt know how to write, if he would have gotten the job.


by the way, why did u conclude that the person u quoted is lacking in honesty? You re now God abi?

There is a difference between certifications and knowledge.
Only knowledgeable people enjoy their certifications.

That the Op was this lucky does not mean everyone else would. Any young graduate in this century that does not know how to use basic office tool like Excel does not deserve to be called a graduate. Yes, I just said that! angry

Opportunity meets with preparation. The fact that one can meet with favour does not mean you should not develop yourself during the waiting phase of life.

OP, congrats on your new job. Give it your best, and keep your eyes open while you are there, build your network as well because you don't know which other opportunities may come up from this. Don't just work and go home, be aware of all that is happening around you.

It can only be a Miracle.
I've been jobless for close to 1 year now, no place to go, depression and brokeness.
So, on that faithful Sunday, the very last week of September, my brothers friend came to the house, we got talking and I made mention of my condition, before he left, he took my contact, and told me I'll hear from him.
So last week Monday, he asked me to come to his office at VI, he works with a well known bank in this country, I got there before 10am and met him in his office, he was telling me about the nature of the job, and just as he got to the part of asking how much I would like as my salary, his boss walked in to pick a document, and as he was leaving, the guy drew his attention, by telling him that I am the guy for the inventory job, he shook me and sat down, then asked if I like the job, and I replied Yes. He then asked if I was married, I replied No, he asked lots of questions, which I just gave simple replies. At last he asked me to choose monthly or weekly pay, I quickly chose weekly, then he asked how much I want per week, I didn't waste time in saying 30k, he was silent for some seconds and asked if I am good with Excel and I said No. He smiled and said he wouldn't pay me such amount if I'm not good with Excel, he offered 20k and asked me to bring someone who is good with Excel to be collecting 10k per week, with free transport, breakfast and lunch, before I could say jack, that my brothers friend said he has a sister who would do the typing, so his boss got up, and asked me to start on Tuesday and left.

Nature of my job....
They have so many tagged cartons, with big files inside, my job is to write down the tag number on the carton, then open it, and write down the contents, some cartons contain only two files inside, I just write down what is written on the two files...

I come out by 7 in the morning at my Junction, and office bus picks me up, I don't follow them back because I close by 4, and I can wear anything I want to work. On Friday, I was still on my way to work when alert came in, I was payed in full, despite starting on Tuesday...

So, to anyone looking or hoping for a job, be prayerful, God still answers prayers, but I advise you to learn Microsoft Office, full package, it really helps...


Peace I'm out.
Fateful day...
