FellaG: It would be very hard for anyone to suggest a job that would help you recover your lost years. Also, from your tone, you sound like you are in a hurry. That state of mind is not ideal for learning any new type of trade. I would advise that you calm down consult far and wide before making your choice. 2 Likes |

This your story reminds me of a customer of mine that resigned from one of the leading banks in Nigeria after almost ten years he finally resigned to start his personal business. He told me that the job isn't that lucrative like before ever since 2015 or so that commissioning was introduced I.e you get paid by what you make per month.Also that it doesn't give room for personal growth, you can't further in academics because you won't even have time. I just wished him well. 2 Likes 1 Share |

FellaG: This your case na midlife career counseling you need. sadly we don have it in Nigeria though i might be wrong. but go online and surf for a career change at midlife or career change at age 35 better still surf for paid and free career change company in abroad. then follow their checklist. their are some form and test you will be subjected to online which will guide you on the right pathway. |

samwash:Wrong assumption.Even at 70 he can still pursue a different career part if he has the desire for it.Its not like he wants to go and play professional football or join military..he wants to follow another career part.Thank God u will not advising him to go and marry since he is getting close to 40 cos the average nigerian all they thing about is marriage being the pinnacle of success and thats why nigeria is so backward.As long as he is alive and breathing there is still to change to any career part he wants to change to. 8 Likes |

op u were counting money for ten years in the bank anybody can count money nau does that make such a person a banker? is it by wearing tie and suit with polished shoes that makes u a banker? while u were doing the teller work u should have gone for a banking programme that would have made u a real banker most of those bank tellers did another course in the university u would see a microbiologist,zoologist and an english graduate counting money in the bank so does that make them bankers? nope u made a big mistake just remaining in one place for ten years counting money without going for any of the banking programmes to upgrade urself but thank God u have realised ur mistake. 2 Likes |

Chii59:it wont work out for anybody using a non banking degree to work in the bank and just remaining in that stage.thats the mistake op made .If he had gone for a banking programme while he was working in the bank cage counting money he would have moved forward.Lots of guys and ladies who knows what they want do this.u cant just remain as a bank teller for ten yrs and not improve urself and u expect to move forward.anytime most banks want to lay of staff its mostly the dormant staffs who become the major casualty. 1 Like |

I agree with the person who advised you should not be in a hurry. You need to reset your escape, make-it-right-now, short-sighted mentality. It was this same mindset that landed you in the mess you're in right now. You took the bank job just to make quick money and because it was the fad back then and now, you're looking for the next trending job to hop unto. Take your time and do your research while you also pray for guidance. Relax and look within not outside yourself. Think of your talents, skills and natural giftings and think of how you can create value by tapping into them. Not saying you can't learn a new skill but let it be aligned with your core gifts this time not just what is trending or what'll bring in money. You got the money through banking right but you're still dissatisfied. Learn a lesson from your past experiences. 3 Likes 1 Share |

FellaG: Thank God for your life that you secured a job, many of your mate are still searching for what to do, its not a total waste of time, you said you have two businesses why dont you build up those businesses or create more. The Bible encouraged us to give thanks in all things. You cannot compare your experience with others, i know many bankers even tellers that are doing well and from their they move on to the next phase of their life. No perfect job anywhere, job is job even NNPC staff still complain, if you are a banker hold your job well and plan well. Also on career part Artificial intelligence or data science are the two i will suggest to you. Stay blessed brother. 2 Likes |

samwash:have u not seen ppl who are old who still go to school to arquire a new knowledge.In many western countries ppl can follow other career parts even if they have an existing career part.Its not uncommon for a medical doctor who has interest for music to enroll into a music school and learn how to play the instruments.So if that doctor is over 40 or close to 70 he shouldnt learn such skill cos its too late? .thats the assumption i wasnt agreeing with cos thinking like that is narrow way of thinking.If op is 40 he can still follow another part if he has the desire for it.All it takes is interest and determination.If its business he wants to do he can do it.What counts is having an interest in what he is doing and not because of pressure.No matter the age u are u can always learn a new skill if u want to.In op"s case he said he is even 35.He is not yet up to even 40.He has the time now to change his career part now he realised that he wasted his time as a bank teller.He shouldnt just sulk and say ohh he is almost 40 and his life is over and its too late.Dats not the way a rational human being thinks.He should sit down and think what he wants to do.Its not too late for him. 4 Likes |

You can begin by telling others how not to waste 10 years of their life without a high paying skill. Sell your story, write a book, run a YouTube channel. This should get you up the consultancy ladder. 3 Likes |

Hmm! I smell lies. Yes I know Banking job is frustrating and full of fake lives and packages but it's develops you as a worker. You are always on your toes. There is always a target which are normally high to be achieved. You learn how to persuade people to save their money with you,...that I must tell is not easy. As a banker, you must have learn the real effect of Financial and governmental policies effect on Currency. My dear these are whole lots to rule the world of financial breakthrough. I know of my friend who started as a banker, but now owns his own business. He has applied all he learnt, the way to convince prospective customer to invest with him and that pays him real good. He also go after his target...still working on his toes to see them achieved just as if he will be queried. My dear, if you say all the time you spent while in the bank was a waste, then it is not the bank but yourself that made it so. You fail to learn nor even upgraded yourself. Remember, NO KNOWLEDGE IS LOST, THEY WILL BE USEFUL IN THE FUTURE. THE FUTURE IS ALWAYS PREGNANT. know these my dear 2 Likes |

A teller of course is not a banker,neither is HR staff,Fincon,Audit,Internal control or Admin services staff.They are all routine jobs so dont let the lad feel worse. He probably worked in Zenith bank where University graduates are deployed as tellers too and they weren't contract staff. The term banker in western world is actually meant for treasury/trading guys and investment banking staff.I got the rude shock when I got a placement in Deustche Bank then. I was told I will be in a support team(AML/Compliance) as I haven't got banking experience going through my resume.I retorted I have done 7 years already high flying in departments like Trops,Fincon etc Those had no meaning to them really It was quite a bitter pill. pocohantas: 5 Likes |
