Bro, bosses don't like you responding when they are angry. The best response is say nothing. Just make sure u do your work as he ask you to. Mind you, they are also hardly satisfied. 50 Likes 3 Shares |

I'll chip this in. Get books like Dale Carnegie's How To Win Friends & Influence People and Robert Greene's 48 laws of power. Peruse them thoroughly. Afterwards you'd find everybody really easy to deal with If you're the type that likes to have the last word, and would rather die than use the phrase " I'm sorry" , then , don't even bother. No book will work. 26 Likes 2 Shares |

If the pay is ok, then manage him like that. General Abdusalam once told Abacha you can never be wrong sir, even if you're wrong, you're right, he ended up succeeding him as president. Just answer him yes sir, and do whatever he tells you to do, whether you agree with his idea of not, just do it. After all you're not living under the same roof, so why are you complaining? If both of you don't reach a common ground I see you loosing your job, and considering the millions of graduates in the employment market, I see you struggling to make ends meet. This I have seen. 17 Likes 2 Shares |

We didn't come to this life to be studying anybody as a course, don't stress it trying to understand him, especially when you are doing what is possible and behaving well and doing the right things a subordinate should do. Try and learn what you can and leave. It's his work- You can't wish him death that will be cruel. He may never change for your sake, even if men of faith may think otherwise. I find it appalling when one is trying to carry out his duties plus live in this Nigeria then one man called a boss I try to make my subordinates lives and work easy cause I believe in mental health, no pay can justify a sadist as as boss. When I leave people to do their work and they fail and I excuse them, they can never say that I stressed them or was overbearing. I have worked for others so I do to others what I'd have loved to have been done to me. #PrayForTheOp 12 Likes |

olaogunt: ![]() I have worked in places like that before. My brother the best thing to do is, arrange your cv again and start sending out cv as soon as possible while you manage him until you get something better. Me I don't always advice people to leave their job if they got nothing to fallback on, but I always leave my job, when i discovered that that environment is not good for me, and God always pave way in 2-3 months. The truth of the matter is that, if you want to really grow, such place is not for you, because you will always be working in fear, and what you need to contribute, you might not be able to do that, you will always be afraid to see your boss everyday, so that's not job brother..... I wish you well 15 Likes |

lol, just quit the damn job and hit the streets sonny. Job no dey naija sonny, but if you wan enter street hustle, the world is yours!! Imma keep it real with you Sonny, don't venture into programming if you don't have money for data or good food. E get why. There are times you'd just smash your PC and scream fuckit, I want out when you can't debug a line of code...been there, done that. Secondly, you need to be on some NOOTRPOICS (cognitive enhancement drugs...adderrall, modafinil, etc) Here are some gems you can fuccc with, cheers. You might want to listen to BLESSED (schoolboy Q ft Kendrick Lamar) while reading this while you light up a blunt, it'd help you a lot Know this and know peace. you can hit the ground running with a few tips below I you don't have any profitable venture at the monent, this..can be applied to almost anything if you think critically. imma keep it real with you like my brother from another mother, The educational system in Nigeria has been watered down a great deal but there are still opportunities for grassroot hustlers, best believe that. All you need now is a hustler's ambition / mindset, you need to grind like one who has no mother or father, its cold out there. In Nigeria, there are two classes of people (Living things and non living things)...you need to be amongst the living and stop whinning and complaining about this and that, nobody has it easy. If everyone comes to Nairaland beer parlor with his or her story, you go thank God for your life. Bum imma share some gems with you real quick and if you are street wise, you will take action immediately. If you must make it in Nigeria, you must think like an OUTLAW. push your fine boy and degree aside, roll up your sleeves and hit the ground running. however, If you are techy (digital marketing, ecommerce, mini importation, UI / UX, Graphics Design, Video editing) If you are dead broke don't venture into programming, you cannot effectively learn programming on an empty stomach with lack of data If you are hands on Plumbing, woodwork, electrical, interior design solar design and installation, phone and laptop repair Let me give you a brotherly advice, and I hope you work on it... First of all I counsel people and I have done that on nairaland for a while... I have met great and good guys... I dropped a story about my experience teaching in two schools as a corper and would not mind partnering with schools in abuja, but some accused me of looking for teaching job... Never ever mind what people say... Back to the matter... As a graduate, teaching and earning 15k, e no bad... But once you have a good (android) phone, go to any car stand of your choice around your area... Listen well, any good car stand and ask to see the manager... Tell him you want to help him market his cars and get good buyers... 90% of car stand managers will sign u on... Tel him you will be paid a small commission after sales... Pick up your phone, snap as many cars as your phone memory can take, open a dedicated twitter ac, IG ac, Facebook ac, WhatsApp ac, ac etc... Take out time to post this cars, make sure you have the actual prices of this cars... You can add as much as #250k on it... Bring down the negotiations to as low as making #50k if need be just so I can sell. Set your monthly target... I assure you, if you get I client in a month, u make around #100,000k once you start growing, you can get as much as 5-10 client from all over the country and that hits you over #1m for just helping others sell their cars, Note all you invested was your time, energy, phone and data... No big financial capital... Do not restrict yourself to cars, go for industrial machines as well, caterpillars, mikano gens, any thing, then you look for those big companies that need them and try to call their attention to it or market it to them... You may not sell in 3 months but when you manage to get a client to buy just 1 caterpillars, my brother you will instantly forget that u suffered before... A friend of mine was marketing a silo for a local wielder, he received a call all the way from kebbi state, the purchase was made in Ilorin, he made #1.8 mil from buyers and #400k from seller... He still got a referral from that deal. Wake up bro... Within a month or two, come and pay (tite). I drive uber/bolt in abuja, market cars, sell commodities such as beans, maize, wheat, ginger,onions, name it... In bags and tonnes And I make nothing less than half a mil monthly...We all blessed my nigga ! Reach me privately if you are interested in gadget importation and sales from US.

For me, I call it "employee hazard." It's everywhere. Your boss may just feel they are at liberty to say what they please. While you are there, just keep learning on the job and putting your best at it while looking out for a better place for you. Last last, everything will be just fine. 1 Like 1 Share |
