Go to Maruwa bus stop, drive in as if you want to link to oniru beach. You will see Ghetto there and I think that place is the real definition of Ghetto.

No dull!

Worked at Eleganza Complex, Alaba Suru, Bagging section.
We mostly work on target, it was a division of work thing, no time to slack, if u dont do your job, others dont get paid. So u no go wan slack. They gave us lunch and our payment was prompt, no room for absentism and late coming is penalised with deduction of salary. It was mostly a nice experience for me.
Our chinese oga no dey like see people siddon(one can be sacked on the spot if caught) so we devise a means to alert ourselves whenever he's around

Those close to the entrance will shout "o ti dee ooo"

Dear Employers,

We are aware that the current state of the Nigerian economy presents difficulties for everyone, particularly for company owners. It's crucial that we stand by one another and cooperate to get through these difficult times.

But here are a few ways we (employers and employees) can help each other and be a support system during this period:

1. Hospitality Employers, please take into account offering your staff a daily lunch. And employees, if your employer is so generous as to do this for you, kindly refrain from taking advantage of their kindness or committing any theft.

2. If your organization runs in such a way they have easy access to cash, kindly give your employees the privilege of collecting cash while they have to transfer the money first to the organization.

3. Please think about letting some of your employees follow you to a filling station if you work for a larger company so they won't have to wait in line or sleep in the petrol stations. Employees, if you are granted this opportunity, please do not misuse it and express your gratitude by working hard. Remember, Nigeria is hard for both employers and employees.

4. Consider allowing staff to work from home if your company has a framework in place for remote work to reduce stress and save money on transportation, gasoline, and meals. Employees, if you are given this concession, kindly refrain from engaging in any activities that might have a detrimental effect on your performance at work. Do not start cooking beans at 8:00 am, do not switch off your phones, and do not come up with excuses that "NEPA" has taken light just to avoid work, as your employer is showing empathy for you, you have to do the same for their business.

5. Employers can improve the work environment for employees who must work in the office by modifying work hours and offering transportation and food. Additionally, if there is available lodging, think about letting employees remain there.

6. Employers, kindly take into account having medical professionals check the vital signs of your staff members, as many may have underlying health conditions that the current scenario may intensify.

7. Employers in businesses where dealings with cash are frequent might think about adopting a POS system and collecting a reasonable fee. Because these POS people will not make heaven with what they are doing.

Special Thanks to some Employers who have taken these steps and all others not mentioned!

In the comments section, we want both employers and employees to offer their suggestions on how to make things easier for one another during this period. We value your opinion.

Also, dont forget to share this post so your circle can see the recommendations for implementation.

Had problem with my area manager since November 2022. The branch manager advised him not to sack me but he insisted he can't work with me anymore.
January 1st, he removed my name from all WhatsApp platforms. No sack letter till date.
February 1st, I got January salary of 49k (not complete salary).
As a broke jobless man, I rush the money like a hungry lion. (Managing something of 30k)
This is an employer that's owing me 8months unremitted pension. After sending and posting pension details more than 5times. They even said they'll pay it in arrears but nothing till date.
Just finding out someone salary must have been wrongly paid to me. Money wey I do chop and clear my debts.
It's like my area manager forgot to notify them when he removed me.
What would you do in my shoes?

Redomi:

opey04:
Please I did interview on January 27. But I'm yet to hear from them. How long does it take before getting back to one after interview?

Which of these has a better career path because my little cousin needs to make a decision before the close of business tomorrow.

Gaming company is 24hrs 7 days a week with shift
Unlike the manufacturing job which observe public holidays

Kindly help

Gagare1:
So I should never contact them unless they contact me, or I got another job.

Is that what you mean?

Gagare1:
So I have passed the aptitude test, oral interview, and done the medical test. But it has been over two months now and I am yet to hear from them. I am thinking of sending an email to the employer.

1) Is it okay to do that?
2) How long should I wait?
3) How long is the employment process in big organisations? It has been over five months since we started.

kabanayol9:
No i don't like what i am seeing, thanks.

2.4m here is net meaning for a year at 200k/month, it is not good enough for a family man but beggars don't choose, it is better than having nothing

I saw a post here on LinkedIn a few days ago that got me thinking.

The lady posted that she is one of the “very few recruiters that values a bad honest answer over a good scripted answer” (not my words)

I think that the current structure of interviews encourages applicants to say the “right” things instead of the “honest” things.

Consequently, it has become relatively easy to coach applicants on precisely what to say (and how to say it) to pass interviews.

Most questions around personal circumstances or probably terrible experiences at a previous workplace fall under this category e.g.

“Why are you looking for a new job?”,
“Why do you want to leave your role at Bleep limited?”,
“Why were you unemployed from date to date?”,
“Why did you leave soso company?” etc.

If one answers honestly, one will get judged immediately and probably not pass the interview.

These are not wrong questions to ask to get a candidate fit, but more candidates will be inclined to answer truthfully if they know that their answers can be objectively viewed and not be used against them.

Then again, maybe I am just naïve. Nobody wants to hear the truth.

It can be very uncomfortable; some say it is bitter.

What do you think?
