Because he can't put it in his CV doesn't mean another man can't put it in his sir. You don't know the limit of a man till it happen.

Like it is.... Every Mallams with him dagger.

I think you guys are not understanding nitigriti

What he's saying is you can't build a career from uber. Uber should be an hustle to make ends meet, and then move on..

The guy you people are quoting had a job before he joined uber. If he wants to apply for another job, can he put uber driving on his cv?

izzou:


Try and follow the comments from the beginning ,and you'll see that we have actually gone off course

Nitigriti drove here for two years. I read about him here and met him here driving. He is not looking down on the hustle

nitigriti:
Seriously guys, I really apologise.

Please let's move on.

I'm not looking for another job but if ever I would go job hunting again, my Uber hustle will be right there in my CV. It's an experience that has been well worth it.

Rubbiish:

Sir it depends on the job
What if it is a driving related job?
How many people do u think earn a better pay more than the man driving president in this country? I know a senator's driver who built several houses in my home town and connected many people to good jobs in abuja through d senator.
If such person lacks good driving experience u think he will get d job?
There are certain job using ehailing driving as reference becomes handy.
I hate the fact that we tend to look down on certain profession in this part of the world and it is greatly responsible for our level of development today.

Nobody's is looking down on this job brother

Just read from the beginning, and you'll see that we are arguing something else

Seun360:


The thing don taya me, don't know what else to do.

nitigriti:


Thank you so much.
There's a book I'm reading — It talks about the way Billionaires think. An example is that they think in the long term. They ask, where is this commitment [business] taking me to in 5 years?10 years?
If it doesn't make sense in the long term, they don't do it in the short term.

Guys, being an e-hailing driver is not a job. No one builds a career as an e-hailing driver. I did it for 2 years, but I can't place it in my CV. See e-hailing as a means to an end, not as an end in itself.

You guys can rise above the level where you will start worrying about Ocar or Uber or Bolt.

Guy, as a matter of fact, there are CEOs that do Uber outside of Nigeria. People do it for different reasons regardless of their status. You know what? I have a job and do Uber because my job gives me so much time that has been begging to be utilised. I found a way out of boredom doing this and it also puts good money in my pocket. My salary where I work has never been touched for over a year now. By the grace of God, my house would have been completed by next year because my uber hustle is helping save big bucks. So, when you say rise above the level where I will stop worrying about uber", I just don't understand what you mean. Uber makes things happen for me, therefore I get worried when that part of me is being threatened. You got a job and quit uber, some have better jobs and still do uber. That's the difference.

The fact that it didn’t work for you doesn’t mean it’s not working for other people here.

This statement just shows you also looked down on the hustle and didn’t put your full mind to it hence you couldn’t overcome it and make it work.

I’m not taking sides but there are levels to everything. Why can’t the experience be put in the CV? You did it for 2 years and couldn’t add it because it’s not professional ba? I’m sure it was more because you were ashamed than professional. It’s a very valuable experience that exposes you and gauges you on

- Integrity
- Customer Service
- Money Management
- Time Management
- Patience
- Leadership
- Social
- Networking

And so many more. You have to stop being myopic. You want to be the rider using the service because you see it as a prestige instead of a business.

Dude drop your shoulders, sit down and be humble.[/s]

kodred:


Inferiority complex is having a field day with the guy. Just ignore.

nitigriti:


So you are the person that will teach me to be humble?

When you've bagged pure water in a factory (120 bags an hour), sold gala in traffic, sold apples in traffic, worked as a Danfo bus conductor ... all as a graduate, then come back here and teach me to be humble.

And yes, all of the above were my hustles in the past. I have no chips on my shoulders.

nitigriti:


It's okay for us to have a difference of opinion. What's not okay is us shading or insulting one another. If you take me down that path, you won't like the clapback.

kodred:


Oh wow so you’ve been broken. I really feel for you bro. But it seems your experience didn’t shape you because you obviously failed to learn the lessons from your ‘hardship’.

I also won’t be wrong if I assume you’re not finding fulfillment at your present job but just have to make do because you can’t go back to driving ‘taxi’.

You need to put your head straight and not give a Bleep! That someone is writing books or descriptions and makes $1k doesn’t mean you’ll also make it. Stop the herd mentality and find something for yourself.

Just an advice.

kodred:


That’s neither a shade nor an insult. It is what it is and you know what it is. Open your mind.
