The Reason My Boss Said I Should Not Come To Work Again. by liver123(m): 11:56am On Jul 11, 2022 |
I work in a building construction site as an engineer under this man as the main engineer. Last Saturday I went to work and on reaching site I sent him report of site. I stayed till afternoon and I was very hungry and coupled with the fact that there was no place to get something to eat at site, I decided to leave before closing time so that I can go home and eat since there is no serious work on site. He later came to site and called me and I told him that I am sorry I left because I was hungry. This morning I woke up to see his message that I should not come to the site again. I work like a labourer in that site for a salary of 50k without any other chance of getting money. See this life, the best thing is to invest in a business no matter how small and be your own boss. This I have tried for a one and half year of working with this man but how much can i save from 50k to start a business of my own leaving in this abuja that everything is expensive. This life no balance at all 142 Likes 6 Shares |

Did you try calling to talk things out with him? I still believe half bread is better than non. You would want to call him now and apologize to see if he can accept you back. All the best. 9 Likes 2 Shares |

Why it's always good to hear both sides. Saturdays are usually half days at construction sites, so I can't phantom why he would choose to sack you for not being around on a Saturday afternoon. I doubt the story happened the way you said it and he may have probably warned you off such before. Anyway, site work abound, with better pay sef. So don't feel you can't do better. Go out and look around. And hope he settled you every dime he owes you.. 32 Likes |

You left site without taking permission from your boss thats very wrong! What if material worth millions were stolen or misused!! We can't blame your boss for wanting a more competent and reliable person.. Not somebody that succumbs to the calling of his stomach ahead of the job that gives him food.. You see always think from the perspective of the owner, not just your own perspective.. Imagine if your the owner of a site worth millions? That's why not everybody can be a boss in life.. This mentality of yours can't get you far.. 65 Likes 2 Shares |

Ate247: Sense they this your yarns sha, you reminded me of my uncle. Who hustle like Jackie, he use to sleep on the bench on-site, at first he worked under someone before he started his own company. Now he is a multi-millionaire with property scattered all over the place. OP go apologize but while you are there quickly learn the ropes of the business. 9 Likes |

Truth be say you no do well atal. You should have called him, explain how things are on ground for him then ask for permission to go home and eat since there wasnt much on ground to do for that day before taking such decision. Just like someone said up there you were is only eyes there and you just left the site like that ![]() 17 Likes 1 Share |

1. He knew you were replaceable, ergo was fast doing it. 2. Maybe you've gone astray several times and this current situation exploded the whole dish. He kind of waited patiently for all your wrongs to get to the summit before sacking you. 3. You didn't do well man. At least you w Should have informed him. Perhaps, you were unable. But work ethics must be obeyed and followed, you signed for it. But he should have still shown mercy because the current economic and political climate is evil, poor, and worse. 4. What next? Rally around your town and vicinity for any vacancy or work related to your field that can pay you salary. Hold the job for the main time as you strategize better plans for moving forward. 5. If you go seek your boss for mercy he may retain you. However, just know that his respect for you will drop down. 6. Don't fret. Be calm. This too shall pass away. Thanks. 6 Likes |

I've tried to actually read through and a bit shocked I found only one or two comments that told ypu the truth straight up! What you did is completely unprofessional and a big neglect to your job, I would not blame your boss as he is on his own rights. What happened to you informing him before you leave? Please remove sentiment and emotions aside as these ones above me are saying. These ones that are saying yen yen yen and all sorts of emotional stories should not deceive you as if you carry such attitude to your next job, you would keep getting fired. Learn to act professional in the line of duty. You want to eat, inform someone. You are closing, inform as well. Whatever action you put up is highly unprofessional, rude and unethical and the result is what you got. It's a lesson for your next job and act with caution Now you can say that he was paying you only 50k without you saving and all sorts, before you were fired you never saw it as such. I personally think you were too confident and non challant and felt you could not be replaced. I can only hope he calms down, else look for another job and stop lamenting over what was entirely your gadem fault! ![]() 27 Likes 5 Shares |

liver123: Your excuse is lame. You are a supervising engineer who left labourers at the site to go home because of the flimsy excuse of being hungry. You knew there was no food vendor close by yet you could not package a lunch with you. There are labourers on that site who work harder than you yet never left. What example are you showing? That anyone can leave when hungry? You obviously have not worked outside of Nigeria, else you would not even contemplate going home before your shift ends. I have seen shop inviters stand full shift, smiling for hours, despite having narcissistic bosses, outside the shops in UAE. I have friends who work on construction sites in the US. Many people work as unloaders and packers worldwide. You bring your lunch. Your job is to ensure that the job is done according to specs. You are the one to ensure that exactly the number of cement bags are mixed with the required quantity of sand and not pilfered. You left labourers to do as they please. You believe you are justified in leaving because you have sent a report. Your job is not to auto generate reports. Your reports should come in after you have done your work. If I was your employer, I would sack you too. Good that you want to set up your own business. I hope you would smile at your staff when you find out they close shop to go home because they are hungry or their wife is Hot. 33 Likes 7 Shares |

You Are Less Valuable To Him, importantly I am not sure it's because of that day act alone he told you to go. You better don't listen to those who were telling you not to go beg him, building is a professional work that requires licence to bid for juicy projects, and you can't get your licence easily if you are not stable with a particular building company, except you don't see your future in the trade. liver123: 1 Like 1 Share |
