quit talking and spring into action . Kill urself if u like ,nobody is gonna miss u ,ur wife will only cry for 6 to 12months before she moves on with her life and maybe remarry . Success isn't about talking but action. So because u lost ur job and u haven't found one that is the end of the world ?? Siddon there dey fool urself. as long as there were and are ppl in worse situations than u are and they made it ,then u have no excuse not to make it . Stop looking for ppls pity and sympathy , take the bulls by the horns . If u can't get a whithe collar salary job now ,whatever job ur hand findeth to do ,just do it,even if it is ponpon job or construction labour site job. Make ends meet first,pray to God then open ur brains , put ur certificate aside and learn a skill or vocational job that will take u like 2 month eg phone repair ,laptop repair,bricklaying and co . Stop all these useless cry baby sentimental trash u are saying. If u kill urself ,even those u love will be the first to call u the biggest fool and ediot that ever lived. So stand up like a man and face ur troubles and overcome them. Start looking for way to overcome ur troubles and stop looking for sympathy oor pity.

if u know who onatisi is and if I tell u my own story , u will get up ,roll on the floor 100times giving thanks to God ,deactivate ur nairaland acc and hit the ground running because after reading my story so far in the little time I have spent in this world ,you will realize that u have no problem . Sebi ,u still have eyes to see a phone ,hands to type on a phone pad and legs to walk about,what about those that doesn't have all those and yet survive in the same naija that u are !!! Infact once u are healthy ,u have no reason and excuse to be jobless,the point is you are looking for a white collar job or nice job. There are works and job all around u . Just do it .sorry dude I have no patting on the head to do for u ,and neither any loving caressing words ,the bottom line is u need to face ur battles urself and set goals that will challenge u yourself and definitely Not coming on nairaland saying u will kill urself.

Don't worry bro, you won't die. Death doesn't honour this kind of invitation, lolz. Well, we all have our stories but I'll advice you to keep hope alive and seek courage from your Holy Book.

Depression and self-pity will always leave you in a mess, (I've been there before) only YOU have to make the decision to get out of it. God's your strength!!!!

Stop all these pity party n go and hustle bro it is nt easy for anyone in this country.

Try commercial driving or keke/taxi riding on hire purchase while sending cv for ur dream job

Do not attempt to use pitiful threats to 'blackmail' people. Please, read the first sentence carefully; I chose them carefully too!

You are not going to die if you don't get a job, you would die (except it's your appointed time) if you commit suicide.

What I would tell you is to have hope; as much as that sounds 'typically Nigerian', I would say it again. Your story is not new as others have had worse experiences. We have to consider the consequences of our actions; if you really love your wife and child, consider the mental consequences the effect of your suicide mission will cost her.

Anyway, back to the topic, in all you have written, you have not been specific . Job pass job; do you want any kind of JOB You seem to be looking for a means of sustenance and not a JOB from your write-up. If in doubt, what I mean is you have not specified what kind of job you want; you just want a JOB!

bro no mind the op. That is the problem with nigerians ,always shifting the blame of their failure on the system or others . The day ppl decide to take responsibilty for the own mistakes ,success or failure is when they will start moving forward. The op has money to buy data , but to learn how to drive within 1month is difficult , if he tries and learn how to drive and collects a license he will get a job as a personal driver or cab driver. So the op doesn't know that over 60% of those okada drivers are graduates I don't blame the op totally rather I blame those who pat ppl like him on the head ,I remember when I needed money for my hnd,I knew how to drive but no license ,I went to the union chairman in my area and I prostrated to him ,told him my story I even cried , he told me to be driving his cab and that no vio or police man will disturb me .

You're just too funny. There are challenges you see a way out of & there are challenges you're totally locked down. I understand clearly what the Op means cos I'm in a similar situation but I'm not gonna give up. He needs your word of encouragement not that you'll be telling him he has not suffered enough.

I've always use 1 Cor. 10:13 as my inspiration ("No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man but our God is a faithful God who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear)

Anything I'm facing right now is not too much for me, I'll overcome it. Be strong Chukks

bros forget religion . What I am telling u is the hard fact of life. Like I said ,the battle against poverty is a matter of life and death. If u are not mentally unstable, if u have ur two hands and two legs and u are not blind,deaf and dumb ,then u have no excuse or reason not to be successful pls note I did not say rich. If ppl who are chronically physically challenged can rise above their physical disabilities and make it what stops an able bodied man from making it. I have no kind words for the op. The truth is always bitter and hard to chew but it is better .

Hustlers of life!

No wonder you wouldn't spare Chuks86 any blushes. I've been in Chuk's shoes before. I also understand what Onatisi is saying on the other hand.

I think onatisi can help chuks by sending him a pm on who to see in his environment or take him to the same motorpark he did his thing back then.


Different mentalities but we can all help ourselves!

Y will u think of taking ur own life this man na wah oooo fr u bro! Jst chill job wil com haba #vegatalks

Where are you based? This will help to start looking for solution for you.

I ve always said this n let me repeat it again most jobless ppl r lazy ppl with an oversized ago.

They never want to start small, all dey want is dt dream job or nothing. Even if u dnt lik d job, u will lik d bills it pays until u get ur dream job.

Op dt part dt says u want to kill urself if u dnt get a job gives u away as a coward n its totally irritating. U shld b a man n hustle until u rise up again.

egbon mi,just like 9ice said it life is all about attitude. Since my childhood days till now I have developed a policy for life and which is if I don't have what I need to get what I want,I will use what you have to get what I want and what I need. Life is all about attitude. All the op needs to do is to sit down and think deep. Sebi ,he sat down and thought of using his mobile phone and nairaland to advertise his problem,why can't he think deeper again? What got me angry is the suicide threat in his post.

I'm not here to drag issues but I'll like to make one thing clear to you: When someone is devoid of opportunities, is there a way for that person to prove himself? He clearly states that he'll do any job, that shows nothing has been coming his way either white collar job or Street hawking & whatever. When you make 10 moves & one was successful, you have hope but if none was successful then what?

Where he is based matters little in this case.there are common sustenance job that one can do while chasing your dream job,but you have to close your eyes from environmental and contemporary pressures.when you see your course mate flash his latest Camry,you will self pity yourself and lose focus.have a segmented plan and you will succeed

if he will do any job ,then there is no point for him coming here , is it here he will get any job ? Ok ooo . Me I no go argue.

I can't say I understand what you are going through but I can say that your CV doesn't sell you at all, your CV gives the impression that you don't know how to prioritze information. Please re-do the CV putting information that sells you FIRST, all the other stuffs can come afterwards. And biko, try to calm down and do a proper evaluation of yourself. Desperation is a terrible thing.
Most of all, hold on to God cos He loves working in seemingly hopeless situations.

Well, I understand ur situation very well. When i say very well, i mean it but u may not know to wat extent i understand ur situation. However, d aspect of "committing suicide", apart from d fact dat its not d solution, sounds too childish and immature, especially in a platform like ds. Nevertheless, I will stil av to giv u same advise people are offering you here. Keep on with d hustle, get something little doing for sustenance, and kip pressing oda better things and i believ all will b well with time. Its a good move u shout for help here because who knows, som1 might just b able to help you out with a menial job to manage, so i won't castigate dat. I just need to point out to you to restructure dat ur CV a bit, at least arrange those info dat has to do with "dates" in latest first i.e. start listing from most recent. Conclusively, ensure and be convinced dat u've try ur best then leave the rest to God.

As a total stranger on the internet allow me to give you advice
An adopted Chinese girl killed herself because of racist bullying
A white guy killed himself because "ugly black guys were getting white chicks" and he had no girlfriend
A retired methodist pastor killed himself to protest racism
A man who was fed up with his girlfriend's incessant Christmas shopping responded to her request for one more look around a mall shoe store by leaping seven floors to his death.

The 38-year-old, identified as Tao Hsiao, had been shopping with his girlfriend at the Golden Eagle International Shopping Center in Xuzhou, China, when she asked to check out one last shoe store.
A veteran, who was receiving $130 a month in benefits, reportedly had a suicide note. A gun was found next to his body, the report said. It was not immediately clear which branch of the military the man worked for, The Arizona Republic reported.
At the beginning of Arab spring remember the shopkeeper who burnt himself in protest of the government in power
I can go on but you have Google so look up suicide interesting stories Nigerians never commit suicide they are too scared to die except for one guy who burnt himself because of poverty
Enjoy

Just believe Jesus and...

OP, if you are healthy enough to get a woman pregnant at 29, you are healthy enough to get a job.
Let me outline my recommendation for you

Go to church or mosque and clear your head of possible spiritual attack

Register your wife in a Government hospital or approach a midwife around and explain your condition.

Hit your street and wash all the cars there, When people ask you what your problem is tell them you want to open a car wash shop but no money.This way someone will possible pick interest in your story or give you change for your service.

If that doesn't work, go to bus stops, approach a local trader and volunteer to hawk for him.

If that doesn't work, go to a construction site and offer to work

If that doesn't work, volunteer to be a conductor.

If that doesn't work, offer to be private teacher. Anytime you see a rich man, walk to them in confidence and say you like to do something for them. They may be needing your service.

If that doesn't work,walk into restaurants and offer to be a waiter, security or dish washer.

If that doesn't work, keep thinking hard. You can PM me, I like to talk with you, not promising a job anyway, I only want to view your C.V and see what I can do.

Spend more time talking to people on the street in place of talking to yourself. Trust me Nigeria is not as bad as you are seeing it.

as i have said you dont know my story.Thank God for your own. Na cab you still drive, done that. Have done the worse job you can ever think of. Even employers doubt my potential. I lost my last in 2011 because i had challenges in health issue. Na taxi driver be your hustle, have sold okrika in yaba, sold pure water in go slow, have done yahoo yahoo. I stop doing ilegal stuff because there is no gain hurting other people. If you are lucky for being taxi driver, not everyone is thesame. Do you think someone will give a one eye guy a car drive
I support yhe family of 9 and my junior ones are in the universities and they all depend on me. So you dont understand a thing, u are only bragging about own success and sorry being a cab man is not hustle enough
