No bank will pay a PA or any staff below the minimum wage of N18,000.

Maybe OP was employed personally by the man. The man pays him from his own pocket. He is definitely not a STAFF of the bank.

That said, it is your choice to quit.

Some of you just want the glitz and glam associated with banking. So much that you are ready to settle as cleaners in a bank, even with your BSc, just to work inside bank.

That is why I do not pity lots of you.

Of course 11k can't take you through the month even if you're eating free food & staying with your parents...If it is affecting your mental well being and your sanity and/or making you collect loans just to survive, quit...else you can hang on pending when you get a better job

U just unveiled ur ignorance to the world...

Anyway dumb ass can only give advice that shows what fibrous tissue a brain they have... Just feel ur self shaa..

But for the records dude is not employed in the 1st place if u don't know.. He only distracted his brain with 11k per month. And that u considered 11k per month anything that is worth such person's time a month instead of sitting back and concentrating on spending that wasted energy on a better hunt or another thing, says alot about u...

So obviously for u it must be a job, and that of 11k... #smh.. For 1 who thinks like u, sorry ur dollar story is for ur villagers, u r poor in mind... Enjoy ur ignorance and unlearn that shit in ur mind that no body hires who's not employed....
yea I should have known it will get to this. That's what you when you engage uneducated lunatics. Apologies.

this happens more often than you think. an oga personally employs a person, usually with the underlying message that if there is an opening in the company , you get first dibs.everyone outside the department thinks the guy is full time employee. i know people who got jobs like that. problem is that it can also go the other way. we had a cad guy who died in 2007 or so. the guy had been forming full staff upandan while it was oga paying him. that was how his family came for insurance money and it became a mess. his extended family were all like na oil company , million, million millions etc. in the end the company sha paid them something to shut them up. and oga faced disciplinary committee. after that no more corner corner job for anybody.

My point exactly.

He is everything but a staff and he knows it. So, he shouldn't create the impression that he works FOR a bank.

I have walked away from a teaching job of 28000 with yearly 4000 increase with no plan B, because I saw no future in the job, I just did the teaching for 3yrs and walked away and today I am happy that I left. One thing about this time consuming, energy draining jobs is that, at the end of the day it will useless u, drain u, put fear in u ,when u eventually get sacked at old age u will be left with nothing, staying on the job with the mindset of looking for another one, bro employers this days are wicked ,they will monitor ur every f...ing move, in that my school, they made it a law that u will leave by 4pm.

I vehemently agreed with that of a primary school for obvious reason no be bank na. Haba mana!?!

A bank that can engage the services of an Area Manager and decided to share his workload with a PA can never be petty! Security (Not police o) in a bank don't earn 11k. Cleaners without even primary 6 don't earn such. We know Nigeria is messed up but bros, I swear this baba dey lie! Unless he is not saying what he does and terms of contract.
A Bank cannot have just one branch and have an Area Manager. So its definitely not a chewing gum something (pun intended).
To me, it's not the bank that hired him but the Area Manager paying him from his personal pocket, that's the reason for the meagre amount.

To make the matter worse, he won't have time to search for other job. Even my boss' driver is paid 42k without qualification, I wonder why some people don't have conscience and they always see it as if they are helping you.

Forget those people, when you buy fuel in kegs, they take N50, multiply this by 200 a day, that's N1000, at least they work 25 days a month if not more, then add this to their salaries.

Very valid point u've raised here. Please Don't mind that guy... I am tired of educating him.... Fear is his problem.. To think he considers 11k a money to hold onto than nothing is really aching, as if the 11k is anything already.

His transport and feeding in a month is never from this 11k....I'll bet anything... So he can cope with his transportation and feeding money coming from were ever while he hunts more serious for something am sure will definitely be better than this...

But Mr 1k dollars lol, will not review his stand and yield to a superior argument.... Anyway.. Please don't mind

Bros, which skill please?
DrObiHogan:


This will be my last input on this. You're talking about a skill you know nothing of. He said he has a job in a bank and pay is low. He didn't mention any skill and if he does have a skill for example, do you think skills perform magic? What if he has no marketable skills that can make him a lean entrepreneur, will you suggest he quit the 11k job and start learning some skills now? You are hell bent in telling him to quit today and wake up on Monday then stroll along the streets looking for job. Do you know what he will meet? Frustration upon frustration because nobody hires an unemployed person and to make it worse in a bank, you had a job and you quit and became unemployed, only divine can get you another job. You see you're not a smart person. Nobody will give him any 11k at the end of 30 days if he quits this job. I know it's hard for u to understand but inside life na pot of beans. Pls skills don't perform magic. I acquired a skill in my 4th year in uni and I could make 10$ a month sometimes 30$, 50$. I kept on growing and improving. After my 7th yr and graduation my skills started earning above 1000$ a month. Now I'm supposed to find a job and be working but I've sharpened my skills in proficiency and its cool.

Put in your best at work. I mean your VERY, VERY, BEST.
Go over-the-top. Exceed targets. Smile. Say "thank you". Offer to do things more than you've been asked.
Be proactive and take the initiative to develop tasks, future frameworks, etc. Be respectful. Come very early to work. Close late. Do these continously for a full month. I would normally advise to do this for 3 full months.

And then, at the end of the month, tender your resignation. smiley
They will make you a better offer, most likely. Then make your decision.

Nigerians are not taking advantage of Online Money, you can be at home make money and enjoy your life, i swear if you join this WhatsApp group you will learn cpa marketing properly and with free traffic and you can start earning at least more than $20 daily which is like 7k daily in Nigeria, people in the group are people making it from cpa marketing and willing to help you out, the main reason they will be willing to help you out is because any 3 of the group member that’s most interactive and helpful for the month receives 100k each and it happens every month with the money which is gotten from their 2k monthly recurring payment for the group and the benefit is far more than that, i got my Free Traffic Method for cpa changing source codes from this same group, you can see the group’s Logo and WhatsApp number on their logo below, thank me later, blessings!!!
