I hate this pattern of work life actually..

One won't even have time for oneself.

Meerahbel:
I have my peace
I can't not come and run mad in Lagos.

5:00am eyes don open, 600am you don road

5:00-6:00pm you close from work, 7:00pm-8:00pm inside bus you eyes dey blink, 10:00pm you finally reach house dey think of wetin you go chop.

Before you finally eat 11:00pm don nak.
12:00-1:00pm sleep don come,, you finally sleep by 1:00am.

4am you don wake again again. Hell no, I collected the salary and call it quit.

Same situation I'm in right now. Just that I close around 6:30pm - 7pm. If I wake anything less that 4: 30 am I will most probably be late.

I'm thinking of quiting. I'm doing my Nysc, but I've ghosted the PPA coz allowee wasn't sustaining.

I noticed that my mum isn't in approval of me quitting coz of the body language she's giving and it's because she doesn't like the idea of one staying at home.

I'm not quitting to just sit idle at home, but until I get another job, I might have to spend some time home. I'm totally confused sef

If only children knows what a real Father goes through to make things around the home work fine.... They will sing beautiful songs for their Dad.

The reason why people do sing songs of appreciation for their mum is mostly cos of the struggles that women go through are mainly physical and it's all seen in the eye. Women are creatures of emotion so it's easy for people to see their struggle through emotional side.

When we were little, whenever my Dad comes home from shop, sometimes he will be angry,sometimes he will be sad. In all the time, he always made sure we never lacked . When I came of age and started following him to shop, I found out that from morning till night he wont eat a thing. I thought he was fasting then. I never knew that he was starving so that we will eat. He was starving so as to be able to meet up family needs. Sometimes when we ask him for money or stuffs he will tell us off. We will become angry and meet our mum who will give us the money. I never understood all this until I grew up. Now I'm a man and I'm facing issues and see reasons why my Dad behaves the way he do then.

If u think a woman struggles more than a man, try ask a widow what she goes through then u will understand.

Do u know what it is to take care of yourself talkless of adding two, three, four people to yourself and be the sole provider of them all. Many will say women will do it. And I will tell u that 98% of women cant take care of a family without complaining when the Father is around doing nothing.

Thank God you stated 'real father'.

EmekaStanley:
Lately I have been seeing lots of parrots videos on my fyp on TikTok, especially the talking ones. I found it so cute and amazing.

This afternoon on my way back to the office, I saw a guy selling these parrots, na so I call am, bought the parrots, 2-in-1 for that matter.

Getting to the office, as a new and first time pet owner, I was excited.

I noticed that if I tried to to get close to the parrots via the cage, they turned their backs especially the smaller one.

I didn't know what prompted me to try bringing the birds out from the cage with my hands, one of the birds grabbed my finger with it's beak and bit me real hard.

It gave a cut that bled more than I'll ever imagine.

Long story short, I just told my office assistant to carry the birds to her house. I no do pet owner again.

Imagine if this had bitten any of my kids.

Same day I owned a pet, same day I became petless.

ES

😂 It's the last sentence for me

This guy used to be cute

So cute.

I also received a negative email.

1st class graduates have a higher chance. As you have been told, you just need to pass their tests first.

The easier route is via tech, and you don't like maths. If you must go for certification, I think tech is better. I am not so sure accounting certs can give you an edge these days if you want to break into the big 4. It is more useful when you are there, especially if you are in their audit department. Their management consulting department is about your brain. What works is getting a good grade from the world's top universities. Best students from top Nigerian universities can get into the big 4 too easily than others. But not all of them. Most of them always go for masters outside the country

With tech, you have more options, and not only in the big 4.

My advice is that you sit for the US GRE and "smash" it. Get a very high score that you can use to get a 100% scholarship to the US. To me, it is easier than trying to get a job in Naija now.

If you have uncles and aunts who can still support you, look into Austria and find a school where you can pay €750 or less annually.

After spending a year in the big 4, trust me...you will start thinking how to move out. So, why don't you try it also while looking for a job that is so hard to get?

If you have access to a backyard that is spacious enough (half plot extra), learn gardening and you can raise money within 2 to 3 years for your graduate study in places like Germany, Austria, and maybe Finland without asking anyone for help. And then, cross to the UK US, or Canada after you finish your program.

If you box yourself to ONLY getting a job with the big 4, you may be frustrated. You will get anyhow job and frustration can set in. You are in a tough environment where there is nothing. Think also of making money instead of only getting a job. You should try to get your dream job, but you must have other options....else, you will lose it.

Since you have enough time now, you are not good with maths, but if you are good with logic and you are a deep thinker, try to learn to trade. You can get good free resources online to get started. Learn macroeconomics and chart reading. Do not put your money there until after your skill is ok using a demo account. Invest 1 full year to learn it well. Trading is not gambling. Yoj must understand how the algorithm works. If you don't, then, you are gambling. 95% of traders gamble because they do not understand the algorithm. This is the real way out of the financial mess because it is tapping into the world economy that cannot fail.

Listen to me. In those days, we were in the dark and nothing for Africa. But Covid-19 was the instrument God used for some of us in Africa. The devil thought he would level Africa out with COVID-19, but it was all gain for Africa. COVID is the reason tech boys are making it (online jobs) cos they have just realised that there are talents in Africa. It is the reason all nations have cut down tourist/business visas and they focus more on work visas and talent-hunt from Africa.

Position yourself to move out of Africa or tap into the world economy.

Good luck!

Thank you. I appreciate you 🙏🏾

You're too confused, just calm down life no be gragra. One step at a time

I don't understand? How am I confused?

Where's is gragra sign in the question I asked?

Ibkay32:
Just go for anything else that can help ur career,

Anything else? Do you mean that I should let go of the dreams of working in one of these firms?

tensazangetsu20:
Apply and pass the tests and interviews. You don't need to get ICAN to get in.

For real?

You think being a graduate of psychology wouldn't be a barrier, giving that I do not have knowledge of account or auditing?

EreluRoz:
I don't just like the guy and I don't know why, I don't feel he's holy as he's trying to portray.

Are you holy, Mr. Judge?

I'm a graduate of psychology. I'm serving at present, but I do not want to be carried away by the freedom of my service year.

I dream to work at one of the big 4 companies, but I'm confused about what professional certification I can obtain to stand out. I only graduated with 2.1 (4.12/5.0), but I know there countless of people who graduated with better CGPAs with the same dream.

I'm not good at math, so I'm scared of ICAN. Kindly recommend certs I can obtain to level up. Cost effective but well recognized certs between. Thaank you.

ChristianMuslim:
Bow out respectfully, bank job na scam.. its even better to use your precious time to learn a skill

Poster, kindly not take this advice. It's likes of this commenter that will still call you lazy for begging or doing jobs that are not legit.

Who says you cannot acquire a skill while on the job or even seek other jobs while in the job?

You're so lucky that there's hope you will be made a staff soon.

You can sort other secure jobs there after

sisiko:
kindly share the proccess to apply.

For us to have taken the cognitive ability test, I don't think the application will be ongoing.

Harrisonwo:
During training school, they pay stipend which is manageable but well above the minimum wage. Once you scale through TS, it's when you will know the pay + allowances+ every every on the offer of employment letter..

They go feed you well during TS 🤣

Do you think a currently serving corp member can progress to TS?

I took access Bank test last week, and I'm hoping

Wow!

It's the kind of job I'm eying for now. I'm also a fresh graduate who is serving at present. I have plans for applying for banks graduate trainee jobs even during this my service year.

If I were you, I would take the job.

Pls, how much do they pay fresh graduate that has just been employed?

Also, I heard that they pay during the training as well .

sammieking2017:
Did you input yes when they asked if you are done with service

I don't think so, coz I don't click that in whatever job am applying for. Did you clicked yes?

About the dress code, can one wear an Abaya since it will be Friday ?

Starvhick:
My physical assessment is stated to hold on the 24th of February which is Saturday. Is there anyone scheduled for Saturday too??

Pls, does the email sent to you exactly the same as the sample I sent above?

Good day, everyone..I hope this email sent to me is real..

Mizpie30:
Please I am still a serving corps member and my ELTP test on friday, they asked me to come with my NYSC certificate whic I wont get till i pass out next month. Should I even bother going for the test on Friday?

We're is the same situation. Sheybi you still have about a month left? I still have about 8 months left.

Alhamdulilah

What would you have us do then?

Lol...
Orishirishi

In other words, kill yourself by yourself

If you mistakenly look into your friend's paper and see that the friend filled 3 sheets of paper with answers already, you'll go back to the question space and add more questions for yourself

We die here, boss
