You need to do something crazy so he knows you ain't a push over. Ensure you are not remitting all the money for the section you belong and lay yourself and make way from the hotel.
I learnt someone did that before and he later used police to arrest the person, claiming the person stole his money.

Jobs/VacanciesMy Boss Poured A Glass Of Beer On Me, What Should I Do? by Standstrong(op): 5:25pm On Feb 06, 2024
I'm being seriously abuse at my current place of work by my boss.

I work in a hotel, one day in, one day out.

I started working there October last year, and I received the October salary ending of November after so much deductions that took almost 40% of what supposed to the salary. I received November salary middle of December (same thing) and since then, no payment again. We are in February and I have needs for the money.

Just in case he had forgotten, I earlier on reminded him of December salary and he didn't say a thing.

Due to my exposure in the hotel, over time, I'm experiencing some negative changes on my health.

At the close of work, I have no where else to sleep than to prepare a place at the open bar and that is where I sleep.

Cool air and mosquitoes deal with me to no small measure. As a result, I have been sick of constant malaria/typhoid and apparently, cold.

The cold part is evident at the constant chest pain and difficulty in breathing I have and sometimes I'm almost down completely due to it. I can't even carry myself to do what I'm supposed to do due to serious chest pains.

With all the symptoms of bad health, I need to visit hospital for care. So last week, knowing he was about to travel, I went to remind him of my salary so I can visit hospital. Since I know he's someone with anger issue, first, I pleaded he shouldn't be mad at me for approaching him concerning the matter. So he pretended to be calm but the moment I mentioned my salary, he went mad and emptied the whole glass of beer he was drinking on me, not minding the white shirt I was putting on.

Not just doing that, he stood up violently as though he wanted to slap me (have done that before) and that was when I shifted away from the place, with my whole body in mess.

The following day, he travelled. I thought he was going to pay me (even pay off) before traveling but he didn't.

With all the abuse and more going on in the place, I want to stop the work even though I have nothing else at hand now.

Some people are saying I should stop the work forthwith and "treat his f"up", but I don't understand what that means and I'm not ready for anything violence or will lead to someone else.

I just want to get my 2 months+ salary immediately so I can go to the hospital and check my health. I know how I am feeling inside me and life is only one. He can keep his job with abuse.

Na poverty and unemployment cause am.

How much is even the salary? Upon all the suffering in the place?

Please what is the best thing for me to do now?

Note: "treating his fk'up" is no option at all.

Dude you wanted to use the free time you had to work and earn 15, unfortunately that wasn't free time more reason why that guy said you lacked wisdom.

You ought to have waited till night fall while everyone including your Oga is asleep then you can quietly go and cut the grass. Wisdom is profitable to direct
Cut grass at night? Do you consider possible reptiles like snake?

OP, YOU HAD JUST ONE JOB TO DO!!!!!

Security business is a serious business.

This reminds me of those Happy Boys that were lackadaisical at their duty posts and unfortunate Nigerians pitied them and gave them foreign scholarships.

I'm very happy that the previous commenters are not justifying the Op's attitude. Thankfully, Nigeria will be great again if we condemn wrong actions.
Na money man dey find. Had nothing on me and needed what could put something in my stomach for immediate survival. It's painful to me.

I'm not sure you understood the job description before picking it up. How can you say you are doing your job diligently and the same time leave your duty post. It doesn't make sense. You were not trained before getting the job. I once worked as a security man to a popular bishop in Edo State. The man really liked me because of how I took the job seriously. The day I left the job, the second day I drove to the premises in my father's clean car and they were shocked I was from a decent family. They probably thought I was hungry. Learn from this experience. You were wrong 100%. If I were your oga I will not pay the 3 weeks because I will claim you had probably been leaving your duty post for other side hustle.
Ha. You would not pay for the 3 weeks? Please he has to pay. I worked for it.

OP you didn't do well jare, you leaving your duty post was totally unacceptable. What if something was stolen from the house while you were away? Your Oga wouldn't have just fired you, you would have been cooling off in a police cell right now.

Don't worry, something better would come up soon, I just pray you've learnt you lesson with this one.
Thank you for your nice words.

A security person is suppose to be guiding lives and properties and always available on duty which is the only reason why you were employed... You took some risk to make extra money and that risk landed you in this state. Well, i pray heaven bless you with a better job

You lack wisdom. That's probably why you are in this situation in the first place. You left your job, and were using your working hours to work for another man. If you had wanted a side hustle, it should have been done outside your working hours. If you refuse to get wisdom, hunger will be your first teacher. You are 100% at fault.
Mr. Full Wisdom, I sight you.

Jobs/VacanciesSee Why My Oga Sacked Me This Morning. Did I Do Wrong? by Standstrong(op):
I picked up the gate man job ending of last month out of no other better options at the moment and seeing what economic hardship was making me pass through, especially waking up with no hope of where food is going to come from, make i no go steal, God abeg.

I have been doing the job well. Yesterday, while strolling around the area, I heard one man saying he is looking for someone to cut grasses in his compound. Being something I can do to collect the money to help myself as i was hungry and peniless, I met the man and told him i can do the work and we agreed on N15k.

So as my oga went to work, i rushed down to do the work. While I was on it, i dont know what brought my oga back to the house and he didnt see me at the post.

He called me and asked me where i am. I rushed down to the house. I told him i got a small contract of 15k to cut grass for someone in the neighbourhood.

The man got so angry on why I left his duty post to go do another job. Worse was that the person i did the job for was more like his enemy, as i later learnt they've not been in good terms.

He sacked me instantly. I begged this man as a human being to please forgive but he refused to consider me again. He even said, "go before you go and collect poison from my enemy to come and kill me".

Please what is my business with whatever fight the two of them are fighting?

That was how I lost the small job i just got 3 weeks ago and now back with nothing. He should have paid me for the 3 weeks right away but he didnt, rather he said i will find a way to pay you for the services so far.

Please, the country is already very hard and all I needed was something that could give me immediate money to survive on first.

Sad how struggling citizens are being badly treated everyday even while legitimately hustling for survival. How he will pay me for the 3 weeks, he didn't say it.

It's painful but it is not the end of the world.

I will make it too. Amen.

It shall never be well with hunger, agent of poverty.
