It happened a couple of times... The demands were too much than I could handle, or the employers weren't just very serious enough... 29 Likes 1 Share |

Yes, toxic environment. I should have known the day I went for interview. I waited over 40mins before I was attended to, but as at that time I needed a job badly. Wk 1 mail wasn't working, after series of complaints, in space of 3 days it was fixed. Wk 2 I observe certain persons wouldn't attend meetings but if I didn't attend hell will break loose and I will be given query Wk 3 I saw shege in the hands of customers because of inferior quality of products Wk 4 it dawn on me that it was an animal farm because some staff get certain benefits and you get none with so much responsibilities, oya pay me my money it got to the 2 week of the following month. I got the salary and told them,I will return shortly and I never came back 🔙 117 Likes 1 Share |

After secondary school, while waiting to gain admission, I got a job in a church compound. My job was to cut grass. I left after the first day and didnt go back again. After NYSC, tried marketing some premiums for Insurance companies. I actually like the job because of the commissions involved, but then, I left after few days to face my IT call. 47 Likes 2 Shares |

So many years ago, I got a job in a company. My first day staff were complaining bitterly as to how they are treated but I felt well am built different and would be the change. When I saw when someone fell from a two storey building and the organization did as if nothing happened, nobody told me it was time to pack my belongings and leave. 84 Likes 4 Shares |

Due to joblessness & frustration I applied for a driver job at a hotel, during the interview with the CEO, he noticed I was well learned, he then requested for my credentials, after seeing degree certificate, nebosh certification etc He said his conscience can't allow him to use a graduate as a driver. He then offered me the position of the hotel manager on a salary of 50k, I was very happy and grateful initially but I had to abscond after a month of working there without salary and fulfilment. First the female supervisor managing the hotel operations before refused to handover critical management portfolios to me as instructed by the CEO, so I was still reporting to her daily. The other staff complained badly of their meagre pay and some have not been paid for 3 months, they would not take instructions from me citing they have not been paid salaries. The hotel was like a porn hub, the CEO wasn't ready for a change, instead he will be telling me to create a better new work culture amongst the staff. I would sit in the office with a non functional computer, move round the hotel daily, all staffs were still reporting to the supervisor. I had no tangible task to handle as the manager. I later noticed my presence was a threat to the female supervisor's choppings I took excuse from her that I was going to buy food outside and that was how I disappeared from there till date I want to learn software testing oooo 69 Likes 5 Shares |

Let me share mine; I went as far as even giving testimony in church not knowing it was one chance I entered. Out over 134 candidates I was amongst the two applicants that got the job. First day, introduction to the team and the office. Few minutes later 😉 staff meeting, the AC wan freeze me, all staff with smiling face not knowing it was part of their responsibility to make the new staff think it all rosey. 🤔 Secondary day, I didn't clock in, a mail was sent that it would be deducted from my pay, ah! Without no notifications ❌ 😔 Third day, I saw the boss shouting with careless abandon towards a staff, kini eleyi bayi? Fourth day, there was a sent forth for a staff, I 🤔 Fifth day, I heard a loud slap, I had to ask the receptionist and she told me. It was a slap by the boss to someone Day six, it was already passed the closing time and you expect me to say at least for a minutes behind, yet I cannot come in late irrespective of the circumstances Day 7, I was on my way home this is 23 minutes past five, that I should submit a report before 6:00pm same day 🥺 I believe that as a person working in a place, the employer should have empathy on an employee But alas, that's not what I got, in sickness I worked, the insults, like no tomorrow all for peanuts. I just stylishly left the place. Nobody stay there for more than 3 months. 56 Likes 2 Shares |

Meerahbel:Business can be that time demanding, i can remember when my previous Boss started his business, i was his first employee. This man comes to the office as early as 7am, this is someone who lives close to his business. But now, i heard he comes twice in a week, so leave these Boss thing, owning a business can be very demanding, unless you have one sugar boy, or daddy funding you when business has low sales. 27 Likes 2 Shares |
