Mine was in 2001 in an aluminium factory during my siwes industrial attachment. I wasn't paid anything. I was given N1k after the six months SIWEX attachment.

Their reason being that I was given accommodation and fed all through my stay with them.

It was my uncle that got the interns hip for me so I didn't want to complain since it was just a siwes interns hip even though I was looking forward to earn some money.

work as petrol attendant at one popular petrol station near U.I and Ajibode axis . manger pay me 2k after working for 2weeks out of 4, the salary is 12k per month but she said since it's my first time that the 2k is for training, I collect come stil work for a month so I could earn the 12k.

and I left there when I told them not to cheat the customer cause they never sold the actual fuel of price you pay. they feel threatened and all workers started behaving irrational to me, that's when I got to knew that's truly we are the one doing ourselves not some fucking old man there.

P.s am in Ibadan and still need job if you have one for pm me.

#3,200 monthly salary in Primary school. My first salary ever!
You were paid a pittance!

There are many misconceptions as regards what to call a particular category of reward for labour in Nigeria. What some employers call salary is no where near it and hence the necessity to clarify issues.

#5 - #10 000 = Pittance

#11 000 - #20 000 = Stipend

#21 000 - #49 000 = Allowance

#50 000 - #99 000 = Wage

#100 000 - #500 000 = Salary

TOPCRUISE:
Way back 2012. As a Bsc degree holder I was employed in an organization willing to pay only N10,000 and commission for targets that is far difficult to achieve. I joined following advice
of benefits of job experience from wicked and village pipu on this yeye forum. 3 months later I was sacked not able to meet their unrealistic target. I even protested the sack maybe because mumu still they worry me or I was under something, but now I have no regrets because am self employed doing fine.
Job experience indeed.

Mine was 7,500 as a secretary, what pained me was the excuse he gave, he said he didn't want my eye to shine too much for money. So he reduced it from 10k.
fairy88:
Mine was after working for 15 days, on the day am suppose to receive my salary, being on my birthday, getting to the gate, I was giving a sack letter and was not allowed to go inside the company, just like that, simply because I refuse to play the card..I cried like I lost someone, my pain was not only the money, but combining studies and working, yes I was schooling and working, morning am in the school, get home 3pm, leave for work 5pm, from work to school again the next morning, for 15 days I couldn't get enough sleep and it went just like that.... what would a poor girl do? Nothing, I got that job because I need to pay my fees, no appointment letter was given, who will fight for me? No one, I left it for God.

Can't forget 2012,my first work at dunamis fastfood,salary was supposed to be 10k monthly but i worked for 4 months and took home just #6640,yes i still remember the exact amount because i was so pained,the useless manager told me that's all he had with him when i tendered my resignation letter to him because i was tired of working for months without payment..

When i look back now i thank God because he has been faithful,i am not rich yet but way better..

I love your spirit, you ain't trying to live a fast life , you will definitely get there, bros isn't the journey interesting?
The journey has been quite interesting I must confess, I have gotten so down that I almost did not see the point of it all, but then I looked back and I was grateful for how far I'd come and what I am to become.
