Look! People have the bias that most women make horrible bosses. Experience or not, women don't make horrible bosses. People with attitudes make horrible bosses!

Where did I mention that she should not be paid?

I don't think u av worked before. if not why would u support this glorified Slavery act. Becos someone is on probation does not mean he/she is not entitled to his/her salary. Please treat people the way u want ur children to be treated.

Why would a PA of one month ask for study leave. Our work culture is poor in Nigeria and when you see an employer trying to hold their ground, these are the type of noise you hear.
Why would I pay for your medicals, all within one month. Haba

Lazy PA

Unless it is stipulated in your terms of employment, Your employer is not bound to grant you study leave or contribute towards offsetting your medical bills... undecided

It's totally discretionary....Your employer is your employer simple....not your daddy or mummy sad

Btw sef

The other side of the story is not yet available....so I have nothing more to say till it is

I agree with you.

What I’ve noticed is that most Nigerians have a sickening sense of entitlement.

I think I’ll just get staff from employment agencies.

What are u saying? So as a PA she can't have access to casual leave? If she didn't come for 2 days, would waje not live? She's a human being too so she needs to be considered.

I worked with top organisations in Nigeria as an executive assistant and I was entitled to medical care and casual leaves (exams) apart from annual leave

Waje can't be that busy not to give casual leave. I think she has interrelationship issue and she's not they type that pays well so she finds excuses to lay off her staff

She should deal with it
casual leave?
Within the first month of assuming duty?
In a one man business?
Just in case some people have forgotten, Personal Assistant (PA ) is another word for servant.
So if your job is actually to arrange files and sort out mails; your boss should do it herself?

I think a lot of people that take on jobs to be PA for celebrities have it in their heads that it's all fun and glamorous. The job of a celebrity's PA is basically that of a servant, you go where your boss wants you to go, at the time he want you to go, you basically don't own your life anymore. So next time, before you apply for a PA job for a celebrity, take time to think about it, if it is the kind of life you want to live at that point. I know someone who was a PA for an actor, we will not see him for weeks, next time when you see him, he'll tell you he was with the actor in Calabar for a movie shoot. Fine, he had contacts of many celebrities and got to attend red carpet events and travel both in and outside the country, but at the end of the day, he was working 7 days a week, nothing less that 10 hours a day for an arrogant actor for N150k a month!

You have a point there. She asked for time to study not to write exams. She admitted that she took the job because she thought it will give her time to study. Maybe, she should have resigned when she realised that she can't study and as well work as a PA. The job was not convenient for HER!

She deserves some casual leave. However, we both know that employers will not grant leave the same month you started work.



It still boils down to the kind of boss. I resumed for fora job in sept and went for 3 days in Oct to wrote pro exams. Though I discussed during my interview. In her case she might be be working at waje house after the close of work there by getting home late. Maybe she wasn't told properly her time frame.

Might be that she heard celebrity and she jumped on the offer

Please try to work in a standard organisation. Probation or not, whatever happens to you when going to work, during working hours nd after work to your house is your coys responsibility

So as a staff on probation she's not entitled to medicals Some employers are terrible then. They sure know how to use their human resources like tissue while they pay peanuts

Waje is a record-breaker! 4 PAs in 3 Months!!!

She obviously shares President Buhari's sentiment that our youths are lazy. grin grin

She should continua. Someday she will call for interview and nobody will respond.

To add insult to injury, Waje refused to pay her for days worked. Where on earth are employees denied their pay because they are on probation?

Yes. I have seen a lady granted 3 month mat leave after few months of resumption to a new coy. Some one man businesses are considerate. It all boils to the kind of person u r working for.

No matter how busy you boss is, taking casual leave isn't a big deal. U work even work from home if he or she's understanding. Is it reservation or meetings u wan schedule that can't be done online?

What's in her offer letter? Does it include medicals and study leave? Obviously not? So what's the fuzz about?
So if your car is stolen on your way back from work, your employer will take responsibility! Common.
In all of this its about relationships and not entitlements, and for calling out Waje, she's bad behaved

Re: Yvonne Imongan Waje's Personal Assistant: I Almost Lost My Life Working With You by labusinessguide: 5:44pm On Aug 03, 2018
In my opinion, this lady just justified Waje's reason for sacking her.

You need time to study.

You have ulcer working for her

You fell ill and as such expected her to foot the bill.

And you told her that the job is not comfortable for you.

And then she should keep you on her payroll?

The entitlement is huge.

Waje did well by sacking her.

Madam was Amazed.

I tire really... even in big organisations... when you get a job sometimes the first one year will be used in trying to impress your boss/s. I remember when I got my first job... didn't go out for lunch for months talk less of asking for any kind of leave(sorted myself with biscuits and tea in the tea room) .... until I was confirmed after 6 long months!.. .. different strokes for different folks
