When life gives you lemons, make lemonade is a proverbial phrase used to encourage optimism and a positive can-do attitude in the face of adversity or misfortune. Lemons suggest sourness or difficulty in life; making lemonade is turning them into something positive or desirable

Some out there share your viewpoints too but reality tells me they hardly let go of government jobs even at LGDA level paapaa

Don't mind some hypocrites here.

Talking about how government job ish yen yen yen... Give them a small government job and see them grab it with both hands like their life depends on it.

Last year's pandemic was a big eye opener to even big earners in the private sector, some yet to recover even at this moment

100trillion:
I work in a state govt agency, the pay is good but the work can drive one insane. No time for yourself or your love ones, 80 percent of female in my agency are single due to the work.

Let no one deceive you, 80% of female civil servant are single, the married ones ain't faithful.....I pity those men that married those female in my dept
I do make money in a day (normal civil servants level ), but the pain is when they pay imagine gettting paid the 2nd-3rd week of the next month instead of d prev month end.....right now I've not been paid, although I do make "small money" at work but I want my fvcking pay.

So, if I retire na like this I go dey fight for my money .....olorun maje, tufiakwa.

My plan is to finish my uni and focus on building my biz, bcus govt wrk ain't it.....you'll just spend waste 35yrs of your life doing shit for the govt.

I pray God grants my heart desires and guide me through the right path of life.

What do you mean by I do make money at work, so you are one of those corrupt actors in civil service who demand money before doing their job

100trillion:
Waec holders earn above minimum wage (grade level 3)

How do I join the civil service being a waec holder?

DimIsaac10:
Someone will just take codine and start sprewing on nairaland. If its not worth it, resign peacefully.

"I do make money in a day normal civil servants level "
"I do make small money at work"

What does these terms mean?

100trillion:
I went through a-whole-fvcking-lot and I don't regret wasting my time on this job.....enough said bruv

and this contradicts ur initial post of wasting 35 yrs working for government

Emyogalanya:

"I don't regret wasting my time".....in my own terms, I don't want him to pity or look down on my irritating experience in my agency, bcus, I had (and I'm still) learn a lot abuh my agency.....remember, no knowledge is useless

Government job is fair compared to most organized private sector excluding multinationals, but nothing beats having a good business.

Government work?no time for yourself?
Op you actually described a private sector setting.

If you can be honest to us,tell us the kind of government work you are doing

Ekg911:

...doing good.

You don't know the value of what you have until you lose it..

forget that nonsense talk, thats what employers used to cage somany employees for years, making you believe there's no other opportunity outside. I believe in your youth age you should be selective of where to work long term coz one you cross 35 you are done!

Cursed be anyone who gets paid to rig elections in this country, force evil leadership on us and is getting paid to defend evil in the media.

May they use all the money they are being paid to treat incurable disease that doctors cannot diagnose.

May the money they are being paid be used to pay ransom to release their kidnapped relations, spouses, children and parents.

As for those who are killing and kidnapping people in the country, may they lost their lives through fire accident and may terrible disease and afflictions locate them to the point that they will not remember to think about killing anyone else but will only think about how to recover their health.

May this be their portion and that of their accomplices.

May Nigeria and it's citizens be free from every evil and triumph gloriously this year and beyond.

This is written and so shall it be....Amen.

Go to oil companies and see WAEC holders earning between 150 and 450k. Its your skills that count, not your school papers. Thats why China is doing better than the rest of the world in everything.

especially in the engineering sector. Come and see waec holders building homes while graduates are thinking of how to go o masters to land a good job

cassidy1996:
the way nigeria dey go now , na govt job win am
buhari and co are making things, very difficult for business

I swear bro,buhari already crumble everything,I am even thinking of security guard job

pozehnani:



If you think the job is not worth it because of the tideousness, then try idleness. That is when you'll appreciate your job even if it requires you working round the clock. You don't know how good a thing is until you lose it.

Talking about ladies who are not married because of the job. Who says marriage is better than having job that pays your every bill and gives you a good life? for all you Know, there are many women who wish to leave their marriage and get a job just to have a good life.

Don't deceive yourself, govt job is still the best because it's secured you get retirement benefits at the end of it. And you won't struggle to collect your pension. I'm speaking from experience because my dad never struggled during his pension days.

To each it's own though..

Government have borrowed all the pension

Ok u think the private sector is better abi. Go and see how they use and sack you without notice

You just decided not to make sense today, look how you're complaining about stress yet you said you're making money. Are you supposed to sit down idle gossiping?

My people will say people that have buttocks don't know how to use them .
Imagine me desperately searching for a job yet you have one and you are complaining . Chaaaaiiii this life no balance true true at all.
Before you think of retirement please fix me somewhere na beg I dey beg .

OcVoice:
You are yet to complete your tertiary education and you are earning good pay in a job you probably got through connection and you are complaining.

Is the job for waec holders? Which waec holder or even OND holder will earn good pay?

Forget about the married women cheating....we already know!

Shut the fu*k up!

At least it's something, government work made sense in those days that pension was for life, but you should know there are people envying your position, most civil servants work for some years and retire to build their own business, so government business to an extent is worth the stress, if you are working in NNPC or CBN, you won't be talking like this.

anochuko01:
You have to be a staunch politician to enjoy govt work

why did you say so?

Government work is not worth it for you while it is the best for some others..

I'm a grade 7 step 3 officer in a government hospital. I'm happy I'm doing shit for the government.

I'm pretty sure that you are not working for the Lagos state government

edoairways:

Some retirees are still struggling for their pension

In Rivers State, retirees are owed their gratuity since 2014 till date, some are on monthly pension of less than 20k
Politicians have destroyed the whole system.....

Nafizzey:
why did you say so?

you would easily be posted to juicy offices if you dine with the administration in power.
