Life At 27 by Nobody: 12:12pm On Sep 09, 2021 |
I’ll be 27 next week and I feel like I’ve failed already I don’t even know where to start Since 2011 I graduated from secondary school, I’ve not had any real progress or direction. I feel like I’ve been floating No real hand work No money I know how hard I worked to save up money to process my admission into a Maritime school 2015, yet I dropped out just in my first semester; No money and I nearly died of hunger. I cried the day I left the school knowing that I wouldn’t be returning. Tried to learn computer hardware maintenance, didn’t work because my boss was always on the run due to his past misdemeanors. I have done virtually all sorts of jobs in Lagos; cleaner, security, conductor, park cars at events, served at restaurants, sales rep, I’ve even done some movie auditions etc. I’m computer literate ( self taught) though not excellent. I want a direction. I want to dedicate my time to a purpose and career. I don’t want to work for a “salary” anymore I want to learn and build a career on something! I want to wake up on a project and sleep on a project. I want to feel that satisfaction one feels after accomplishing a job or project for a client. I’m open to everything. Skill, business, service, just anything. I’m from Abia State Male Honest Hardworking I have all the time in the world I’m open to learning and working as much as 7 years without pay. So long as there’s compensation at the end and a clear career direction. I live on Lagos mainland, but I’m very familiar with the island as I lived on the island for 9 years. Please reach out to me via the email on my signature. Thanks in advance. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Maybe you should save up and get a computer and try learning how to code. It is not going to be be easy but it is something you can derive passion from and once you are good at it, the money follows. Note: It s not a get rich quick scheme and definitely not a field for unserious people. 1 Like 1 Share |

The maritime school is a dead end bro. I graduated from one no job. I went to do mechanic work. My graduating class only around 10 percent are working as marine engineers and its like 5 years after graduation. Follow the guy who said you should learn to code. Thats the only thing I can advise any young Nigerian to do. 5 Likes |

Gadahfi: Your email is on your profile page not your signature. Clean that BBC and Aljazerra stuff then paste your email there. Learn how to code, thank goodness you know a thing or two about computers. Thus, you earn in dollars. Don't do anything agriculture, Fulani Islamic terrorists disguising as herdsmen will frustrate you. Learn. How. To. Code. 4 Likes |

Gadahfi:Bros your own is even better I'm 24 years old and I don't even have any skill like that,ran away from home in Ibadan because of too much problems I came to Lagos upper last year and started doing some jobs, But last year I got into a factory where I was seeing small money to manage myself I wanted to save at least 250k before the end of the year of this year but that's where problems started Early this year my leg got into a machine at this factory,my leg was broken and couldn't work I stayed at mum place until I could heal,this was for like two months During march,my leg was a little bit ok so I went back to this factory to work again I was saving money and bought an android phone That's how at my working place my phone and over 30k was stolen around April I was sad but didn't lose hope and continue to work only that one day I had a dream that I saw someone giving me a small black nylon Fast forward to last month My phone was stolen again,the person I gave to help me charge it lost it I began thinking again about how to get another phone So on August on Friday,because I was on night shift,I was sleepy and wanted to rest a little,I didn't know that my hand was at a machine As they on the machine,my finger got cut I lost the finger next to my big thumb on my left hand I was so depressed and sad At the factory they didn't want to help So after going to the hospital,they told me that I will need 100k for refraction of my finger because it has almost cut off The 100k I got and sent my.brother to retrieve for me Can you believe my own blood brother ran away with the 100k I wanted to use for surgery,and this my brother knew what I was going through I had to borrow money for the surgery After the surgery,I'm at home now healing and thinking about my future All im thinking about now is to find a way to find a job to pay back my 100k naira debt It was even someone at my working place that followed me to gbagada general hospital I'm tired of my life now self All im looking for now is someone who can help me with a job |
