1 basic common sense in the absense of extraordinary intelligence 2. Proper education 3 exposure and enlightenment. These are the issues. It is at the heart of what the CEO is saying and the absence of any of those qualities in your response is at the heart of your troubles.

If you go to ANY village with a rolls Royce and try to use it for taxi services and charge the same rate the locals pay for Okada, don’t be surprised if they refuse to enter! Despite lack of exposure and education, they have enough common sense to know something isn’t adding up here! So rather than enter and find themselves victims of some untoward activity, they would seek verification, they would ask around why are you doing taxi services with a Rolls, who has entered and come out safe, how many people etc etc. this is basic human common sense. No degree or exposure or speaking English needed. This is what the CEO is talking about that our graduates increasingly lack. What I described up there is the problem 90% of employers have with Nigerian graduates and youth in general. Basic common sense. No point in having a 1st class degree in civil engineering for example and you cannot apply are deal with situations with a logical mind. That’s the issue. The Nigerian graduate with a 1st class will enter the car and next thing he is missing and they harvested his organs.

Back to the issue:

It is on record that the starting salary for entry level developers at Moniepoint is 1m a month, with senior developers earning up to 10m a month. With your so called education, you think a billion dollar software FINtech company got there by employing N200k Software QAs to vet the work of people earning up to N10m a month? You think a company of that caliber does not know that someone earning 200k in Lagos can never be in a state to handle that level of mental complexity? Drivers earn 200k! Also as someone who claims to be educated, it never occurred to you that there are different processes in any company and that this particular QA may not be Software QA?

Having just one of the 3 attributes would have led a sound mind to say, “I need to see the detailed job description first”. His lack of logical critical thinking problem solving skills, is what you have displayed here. I can tell you without knowing who you are you don’t work in a multinational company and if you do your role is a mundane role. If you are abroad you are care assistant or warehouse worker etc. there are things you can tell about people in one sentence.

You may end up being right but it won’t matter because the process that led you to your conclusion was faulty which means your thought process cannot be trusted…this is what employers see, that is why you think you are deserving but you don’t get employed or promoted. You could not have rightly come to that conclusion without having the details of the specific role allegedly paying N200k and as I said whether deliberately or otherwise it was the crucial bit of information concealed. If this were an interview, you wouldn’t be employed, even if you were right. The right and logical conclusion was the conclusion I arrived at. We don’t have enough information about this specific role to conclude definitely that this is a software QA role.

In the same way of I had a junior staff who entered that fictional Rolls Royce, I would sack him if I got to know….even if I was the one o sent hm on an errand and he delivered….. Why? Because one day such a person will put me in trouble.

casualobserver:
The salary may be commensurate with the role. The problem here is he did not list the functions of the role. QA can mean anything just like “consultant” can mean receptionist, hairdresser or sales boy/girl. Quality assurance is generally not a role for graduates. Generally abroad it would be a job for school leavers. However If it is software QA, I am 100% sure they would never offer such a salary.

Did you go to university thinking you would be applying for a quality assurance role?

Adeyemi230:
funny
my monthly salaries is 25k but the main issues is
at times my daily bonus is more than 10k if there's sale
and at times i might gain 2k daily so am comfortable
if there's daily bonus that cover daily expenses it's fine

Bendeco02:
When you marry for looks only, this is what you get.

By the woman's appearance, the signs are there that she is wayward.

But some men will be like "don't judge a book by it's cover".

I fit date any kind of girl o but you see for marriage, I will examine you like machine.

Wayward lady will always be wayward. Some of them always use poverty as an excuse for their wayward life.

She married a rich man but still can't stop cheating. Her excuse now will be that her husband is not active on bed

6 months is more than enough to date and marry for someone who wants to marry.

It's different from people who want boyfriends and girlfriends.Those ones can go on with their 5-10 years or more relationship,studying their partners like undergraduate and master's degree combined.

Good luck to them

spiceadole:
Why should I be angry?
I had met guys who didn't agree to "no sex" even when I accepted they should not spend on me.
Finding someone who agreed to my condition was perfect.
I was working and spending on myself.
I didn't just want to be passed around in the name of relationship.
Very important. You did well.

marlow1962:
Is 8 months not too soon to date and get married. I feel a year and half or 2 (max 3 years) is okay.
So many ladies can be on pretence mode for that 8 months or 1 year.

spiceadole:
That was what me and my husband practised.
We dated for 8 months.No sex, no spending.

It's greedy and broke ladies that can't agree to no spending.
I was working and contended.

We have 3 children now

helinues:
Bro forget it, All what you listed shouldn't be the excuse for not helping if you are in the best position to help.

Bad ex, bad friends, as long as whatever they did to you in the past did not kill you but make you stronger for them to come for help, prove to them you are better but it should be one time

Namaster:
This is a PRIME example of Penny smart, pound FOHOOLISH.

OP claims buying airtime to call the girl was too COSTLY yet he bought her a BRAND NEW PHONE.

HOW?!

How does that WORK?!

Now, the girl is using the Redmi that OP bought her to MARKET herself to the next maga who'll get an iPhone and OP is complaining of heart attack.

Sonnobax15:

So are you planning to move on without collecting your phone back from her or what?

People are really hungry in Nigeria, sugarcane is now a big thing under APC.

Sorry if you are offended.

Just be warned for the last time.

And this is supposed to be a professional memo. Using languages such as "messing up", "red alert", "be warned for the last time!!!".

You can use that money to rent a room and parlour self contain in Ibafo, or Igando and still have change.

ManknowThyself:
Real men are always ready for marriage but until they see and feel the respect of the only woman having the dignity to be the queen of their kingdom and empire.


Real men are waiting not in haste for marriage.

Real men know exactly what they want in a woman, peace, respect and dignity.

Not chaos, noise and disrespect.

The lawyer said "see your neighbours, they had car accident". Are you sure, you still want to board any car in this lifetime?"

It’s just like having a list …. Dead, dead, dead, dead and then asks ‘ you still want to live

Name one Nigerian billionaire that was not involved in fraud or fraudulent politicians.

This is what seasoned Christians call voice of the grave. One obstacle and you fall flat not wanting to get up.

We are living in a spiritual world, the Fools does not know this, only the prudent and the evil ones knows this.

Some think being a Christian is just about singing praise and worship or going to church in a beautiful dress. To be a Christian you most be ready to put on the whole armor of God.

Disappointment will always come in life but its your fortitude that will determine your direction.
