I am an NCE holder. I finished my NCE programme 2018,I started working as a security operative immediately I graduated from school till last month. I resigned last month due to several reasons: 1. The salary is meagre compared to the stress I am subjected to 2. Security work is risky: one can get jailed for a crime one knows nothing about, a security guard is the number one target of armed robbers during their operations. 3. One is deprived of night's sleep for 1week. 4.security work is synonymous to humiliation; a security guard is commonly seen as someone who has no bearing in life, a nonentity and a hopeless person. 4. I find it difficult to communicate eloquently in English Language because most of my colleagues are not learned. We converse in Hausa and pidgin. I need a job with good prospect, like Teaching or any job that can improve my communication skills. Within the short period of time that I have been jobless I have received 3 security job offers which I rejected. I have resolved not to work as a security guard again and I don't want to go against it. Please I need your advice. Pardon my grammatical and mechanical errors 6 Likes 1 Share |

I no send life again, anything life like make e do me... What will be will be. I've only been sacked once by Indians for incompetency (Yeah, they tried to turned me into a machine so I become nonchalant towards the job) I felt bad for just a day or 2 because I know my skills. I got a remote job 4 days after, salary was nothing (30k) but at least I was not spending on transportation, The start up closed down in 4 months time due to some government and competitors shits. I still didn't feel bad because I believe what will be will be. Long story short, It's better you a skill than you have JUST certificates, you can always fall back to your skill for sustenance when shit hits you. Street has thought me a lot of things, but I've made up my mind.... NOTHING FIT BOTHER ME AGAIN.... what will be will be. Till date I don't fully depend on salary because that thing dey finish in less than a week. I not where I was yesterday experience-wise, I'm not where I want to be Financially, but I'm sure not relenting... I MOVE!!! I'm available for full-Time or remote Graphics Designs, Digital marketing and social media management position. 5 Likes |

Mine is long. I started my career as a sales rep with one the biggest feed companies in the country, located in Jos. I studied Animal Health Technology. My sales was doing well until the company decided to produce a low budget layer feed for people who could not afford the regular feed. The quality so poor that it made farmers abandon the brand because the feed gave very poor egg production. My sales nose-dived. The company was looking for a scapegoat, and fingers were pointed at me, blaming me for incompetence in managing customers and farmers to continue using what is killing their farms. For that reason,that they no longer need my service. As they were preparing my sack letter, I resigned. I had no savings cos I was building my house. I stayed home for 3 months, those months were hell. On the 4th Month, I got a job with a popular hatchery in Oyo state, to be their sales rep in Katsina and Zamfara. I was to market 2 products. Chicks and feed. When I started, sales there was zero. I raised the sales of day-old-chicks by over 20% while that of feed was not possible because the company had already soiled its reputation with lack of production, which caused unavailability of feed. The GM Sales phoned me one afternoon, shouting on me, saying I am lazy and I don't work, that all I do is to be sleeping everyday there in Katsina, that they are giving me 1 week, if I don't come up with sales of feed I will be sacked. Guess what? 2 days later, I resigned. I stayed home for one year no job, it wasn't as hellish as the last joblessness though, cos I had moved into my house and went to crop farming. In 2021, I got an offer with a Lagos company to be their sales rep in Abuja, the pay was good, but just like the last job, they stopped production for almost a year and customers have gone to other brands, sales was also zero, I was expected to revive sales. I am good at that. I resumed late July. But the problem was that before I got a depot for the company in Abuja so that products will be shipped from Lagos for Abuja customers, it took me more than a month. It wasn't even a fault of mine. It was due to the very sluggish due process they applied before approving money for the depot's rent. I started sales in September, convincing customers to come back was not joke, but by December, sales was above 30% of my target. Just when I was getting ready to go for introduction, to get married, boom! A letter hit my mail that if I don't get 100% sales, I will be laid off. Baba, naso e happen. I was laid off February this year, 2022. The company no just get patience, just when sales was beginning to rise, that's when they cut me down. So if you know any company in the veterinary/livestock industry hiring, I am available. I can cover any where for them as far as it is in the North, even if it is Maiduguri, 0802. 760. 6363. 20 Likes 3 Shares |

After school I got a job as a sales rep, salary na 50k, from 2017 till 2019,Salary increase to 70k, In 2021 ending an additional 10k was added salary became 80k. I decided to stop last two months because of the massive inflation and how in the space of 5years ,I have only gotten an increment of 30k despite the massive increase in work load and the visible growth of the organisation. CEO enjoys drives luxury cars and goes on vacation, meanwhile as an employee you struggle to even feed, talk more of transport,buy cloths,still have small savings. Oh did I mention that the working hours was from 8am to 6pm every day and Saturdays and public holidays for 9am to 3pm. Working for any private organization without any structure especially a one man business is hell on earth. For now I am not looking forward to work again, just my small side hustles and look out for better opportunities. Life no too hard,na people dey make life hard. 10 Likes 1 Share |

My present work is just hell, the environment is toxic plus I am the only one here that don't understand the language. The office politics is driving me into depression but when I look at the outside world is scary. My plan now is how to raise money for japa. I have been able to raise half of the money for school fee. This country na hell, if you are a lady we can collabo and do the arrangement to go provided you will support me with the half amount remaining. Note we will process everything by ourselves, because is study visa. 4 Likes |

I graduated since 2017. Till now, no job. Sometime last year, I went for IRATA training and offshore rigger training in port harcourt and got certified. Yet, no job was forthcoming. After sometime, I started seeing the jobs but couldn’t apply because I needed some other documents to qualify me for offshore travel. These documents (BOISET, medical clearance and OSP)cost a lot of money and I didn’t have it anywhere. As God will have it, my relations favored me with the money without first asking for it from them. I quickly processed those documents and had everything ready by March this year. Brethren, since I got the documents complete till now, I haven’t seen any job to work with it and it’s making me depressed. It’s not a funny’s situation at all. How I got the money to do all these was just favor from God. Everything cost more than a million naira. I have debt of almost 700k to settle but here I am at home jobless!!!! 4 Likes |
