Advice:50k Job No Transport Or 70k Job On Island To Spend 15k Transport? by Ooasis(m): 6:16pm On Jun 25, 2015 |
kindly take time to read through and Pardon my errors pls. I found myself in a situation where I need an advice. I have a job on the mainland which pays 50k and I spend no transport at all. I started working there three months after my youth service with 45k, I wasn't satisfied with the job so I started searching for another, it(new job) wasn't coming so I decided to change my mindset and continue this for a while, after my grudges complaints to which the organization says they are not satisfied with my output and that they even wanted to lay me off, (which I knw is just gimmicks as I knw that I am there best staff) I got a raise to 50k after almost a year. Why I don't like the job. 1. No productivity for a while now, not much jobs bringing in cash for the organization and I ain't happy doing nothing and earning at month end. I have talked to them about how to improve but they seem to want to move at there pace. 2. After the we want to lay you off saga, I feel like I really need to take my exit while the ovation is still loud. 3. I believe I need to change environment and meet new people, since here isn't interesting anymore, the workplace is not appalling and I am tired of the petty shits 4. The 50k salary will always make future job bargain allow recruiters look down on me and offer ridiculous pay. I got a new job on the island 70k and I will be spending transport of 15k. New environment, nice work environment and high career prospect cos it's an international organization with new challenges. Cons Thinking of traffic, the not to expectation salary and fear of uncertainty, kindly advice me what you think I should do. Thanks, you may just have saved a life. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Thanks @ habisoye, I am looking forward to getting lift also, the uncertainty ain't a big deal I am a guy like you said. But the name of the organization I may not be able to publish due to certain reasons, but it's a group and I get to be the inventory and maintenance personnel. Thanks anyway. @ pweetymoi1 thanks for the encouragement. Yemz213 thanks for your contribution. I really appreciate this family, am grateful for the word of advice, encouragement and about six sarcasms . I won't disappoint you fellas. Thanks. |

Ooasis: There in...lies your answer. Nothing good comes easy. You either stay where you are and remain unproductive to yourself, or down the cons of the new job and look towards the future. The big goons have their sad tales of beginnings too. Look at the future, and from what you've narrated, if the new job would give you skills that would as well be beneficial to you in future, take it! It's not all about the present bro, neither is it all about pay, especially when you're just starting off. Good luck. 11 Likes |

Both Ok, I'll be honest now I'll say you should go for the job on the island. Wanna know why? You've already said it that you'll be in a better place. Better place = better people. Better people = better you. Yeah you'll be having 5K extra as take home at the end of the month but the opportunities you stand to gain may be worth more than a few months or a year (maybe) of your extra 5k. Before you take my advice, listen to others too. Wish you the best. Kufre U. 5 Likes |

70k just remember to take a book along with u, every morning, cos u'll be sleeping on ur way to work. But a challenging environment is always good for your growth rather than staying in a place with little growth. ThefakeStan 5 Likes 3 Shares |

Life's chess mate, not checkers. Money won't buy you connections and a career like an item in shoprite. Besides by the law of conduction, it's better to roll with those you intend to be or at least aim to be around their circles. Now your watch begins.... 1 Like 1 Share |
