The noise about tech got into my head and I quit my 8-5 job. Though the 8-5 job was becoming stressful and toxic, I couldn't cope and had to leave.

I had saved some funds and learned data analytics. Now here is where the issue lies.

I've applied to more than a thousand jobs and I keep getting rejections.

My hope was to get a remote job but I'm not seeing it coming.

Is tech all about noise or it's just saturated?

While learning , we were told a data analyst earns 30k USD annually. I'm just getting tired and frustrated

Frankaka8:
Name of movie?

Ihengwu:
Yes, it was an offer to work abroad but before i accepted i got a better one here in Nigeria. The tax and cost of living abroad was going to wipe out the earnings at the time. I saved more working and living in Nigeria.

Hello,

Are you an excellent Mathematics teacher with good teaching skills and a good command of the English Language? The jod is to teach 2 pre-teen Maths and prepare them for upcoming Maths competition.

Regards.

Good day RJ, Please I need your advice on this:
I left my job as we close for the year 2024, reason being it's giving me a mental stress and also since January till December of same year staff salaries depends on scrap sales and some assets which I consider not sustainable. And Glory to God on the other hands when ICAN result was out, I was qualified. I've been applying since then, however I have a family in Ibadan but dont mind relocating to Lagos if the pay is worth it
Fast forward to now, I got an offer from a company in Ibadan with a gross pay of 145k, 7:30am to 5pm working hours and Saturday 8-12pm.
I'm used to Sage, QuickBooks, this very coy use no software.
However this does not in any way come close to what I want and on the other hand staying at home... I don't know what to do.

Yes. One tech firm at ikeja hired me and told me I'll be using my personal laptop to work. They don't even have an office space. The address at ikeja is the house of the owner of the company. They said pay is 70k. Fully remote. No company laptop, no data allowance, no call allowance...

Omo I just turn down the offer because the job na serious suffer head.

detopea1:

I reject am by fire by force.

papyjaypaul:
I rejected one that asked me to pray in the morning. I knew about it at the final stage of the interview. That morning prayer is a trap. A psychological trap by human beings in the name of faith.

Everyone should pray in their homes and come to work to work, not for worship. It happens in some government offices where people bring their personal affair with God to the office. I don't need your outward showoff to know if you're spiritual or religious, I'll see your religion through the way you treat others and make decisions at the work place. Your power to reject is based on your convictions and how experienced you are. At a younger age, you may not see clearly but life will teach you some lessons and later in life you will start to reject what poisons your soul even if it pays you billions. Be grateful for mentors or parents who can protect you and tell you to flee from some traps. Life repeats itself.


When I think about life, what I see is that school never stopped. Adults just changed the venue of classrooms. People want to control you in different ways because they hold the keys to power and that is where the money is. If you don't work, you'll die so people lose their freedoms in the name of work. It's rare to see a class captain who respects you as a person not because he has the power to write your name on the list of noisemakers. The plantation never closed down

Authority is not power. Take note of that.

surgical:
He makes almost a billion yearly from his YouTube prayer videos,he can afford a gym in his house, why go public

VitoCorleone:
I know someone who does this. He stopped his physical teaching job. And focused on it. He teaches mathematics to students outside the country.
He uses an ipad pro, expensive microphones, and other teaching aids.
Gives assignments and notes and marks on the fly. I was really impressed. I sold some of those gadgets to him so I was curious as to why a teacher needed them

Gerrard59:
It's exchange rate advantage, else they would've patronised UK based tutors. Other than those who teach ethnic languages, what prevents them from patronising those within?

Judolisco:
and when d minister of health and vice president said, people are coming to Nigeria for medical treatment, nobody thought of this they were shouting that it's a lie, things in Nigeria are very cheap....

1Hover1:
Well, that's fine.
Don't think because you're in uk/us/Canada/aus/nz and Co, you can't inculcate the Nigerian culture and discipline to your child. Not all you hear on SM is reality.

Focusmind:
Many Nigerian students abroad send their assignments to Nigerians in Nigeria to do the assignments at a fee for them.

Lots of Nigerians are online assignment doers and they "earn" their living by advertising their "services" online for willing buyers. Many ladies studying abroad have guys back home that are doing assignments, term papers and projects. In abroad, assignments, seminars, term papers and projects constitutes up 70% of total assessment for some courses abroad

ariesbull:
They can't pay the ones there due to poverty so they prefer cheap labour from Nigeria

Acidosis:
Nigeria's biggest problem is electricity, not data. Tizeti, Sabi Network, and many other unlimited fiber internet service providers in Nigeria cost less than 20k a month. If you make your money online, it's the least expense you'll need to worry about. The main issue is power/electricity.

lawrenzooo:
Yeah, it might be to bridge the gap but again we cannot rule out the fact that it's because it's cheap. A friend linked me to a Nigerian woman living in the US who wanted me to help maintain her site and she was offering $10.
I declined and later got to know that the person maintaining it for her was charging $100 per month hence the reason she was looking for a cheaper option in Nigeria.

damoobaba:
Shey you get link, am interested.

amadiwati:
I have been involved in one, and it was an exciting experience. Our Nigerian children here know how to cope with unfavourable situations. If you tell them the lesson is for 1 hour, they patiently wait until the 1 hour elapses, even though they are tired. Those children given birth abroad will tell you they are tired and anything afterwards is "Oyo". However, their parent will count it against you that you did not complete the 1-hour mark. Again, my challenge with them is that they feel they are doing you a favour because they believe there is no job in Nigeria, which is very bad.

hartson:
Ok nice
Can you put me through or add me to the group I beg you with my knees on the floor.

Rod1:

nlfpmod:
Some Nigerians who live abroad now get lesson teachers for their kids from Nigeria to help boost their children's grades in school.

The lesson is done online via zoom.

What do you think about this kind of style?

Dolarman7:
Please am interested.

Christ4ever:
To teach indigenous languages or what?

hartson:
you mean interested to guide or train potential teacher who is willing to learn online teaching or interested to patronize you from home or abroad.
