Full staff job is better. ....been a full staff gives you edge when another job opportunity comes.
Meanwhile banks does not like to employ contact staff to full staff cadre. ...its very rear to see banks employ contract staff to full staff cadre unless with God's grace

He spends 30k on tfare
And Vi food is usually expensive which is where he works

bellville:
He should move closer to areas close to the Island. Areas like Oworonsoki, Ifako-Gbagada or Surulere. He should be able to get an affordable self-contained apartment in those areas. That way, he spends less on t-fare and does not spend long hours in traffic. He willl begin to enjoy his Lagos job once he does that.,

Firstly, it's cost of living not standard. Nigeria doesn't offer her citizens the choice of having a reasonable standard of living. Isn't the same generator fumes you'll breathe anywhere?

And how's Akwa Ibom not "cheap" (affordable should be the word) to reside vis-a-vis the pay and passion (remember he said he doesn't like the Lagos job)?

Thank you for your response.

Thank you for your response.

The bank Job has a nice title of "Regional IT Support" attached to it, which i feel would look good on his CV. I feel he should take it and continue job hunting whilst at it.

Its not like his prospects are any better in his current coy. However in Lagos, there are more career opportunities.

Ultimately i feel the decision is his to make however difficult it maybe

calabaman:


Thank you for your response.

Really appreciated.

Telling him not to resign.. he should go and start this new job for a week...see if he likes it and use that as a yardstick to decide.

what do you think?

Akan7:


Self contain goes for between 100 - 150k.
Who ever said Uyo is expensive to live in doesn't know what he or she is saying!

Hello all.

Please help a friend of mine decide:

He has just been offered a bank job in akwa ibom state, however its a contract job in a commercial banks IT department with a salary of 95,000. Also, he comes from Akwa Ibom.

Thing is he currently employed here in Lagos as a full staff and earns 85,000. however he doesn't enjoy the job.

Now should he stick with this 85k job or take up the 95k job offer knowing how bank contract staff are usually treated, but how stress free akwa ibom is.

#No insults please.
