Quelme:On what grounds? your IGNORANCE? ![]() Your case reminds me of ignorant Nigerians who swear they cannot work as caregivers— my children will never work as caregivers, cleaning other people's butts and vomit —, but when they find they are sick and unable to care for themselves, they expect other people's children to come to help clean their poop and vomit because their kids won't do it. ![]() 1 Like |

Kobojunkie: Like I said before, it's high risk. And just because it's a developed country, that doesn't mean you have nothing to worry about. And some of these companies will hire illegal Mexicans that don't speak two words of English and definitely have no training. Even if all the other employees are safe, do you want to take chances with those dudes? I'm simply saying I wouldn't take the risk. And I wouldn't advise anyone I care about to do it. Especially when you have a lot of options. 1 Like |

Cousin9999:There are chemical plants and workers everywhere in the world including Nigeria. So, this worry you describe is not limited to workers in the developing world alone. However, the problem is less of a problem in the developing world where actual investigations are in many cases regularly carried out and those impacted are compensated. ![]() If you argue that no one works in chemical companies altogether, then there is a serious problem because life in the 21st century depends to a great deal on those workers who work in those chemical companies. So, please if it does not work for you, let it simply be that iyt does not work for you. But you do no one any good unnecessarily alarming them about risks when we all need people who are willing to take such risks to do that job so we can survive in this world we live in. Yes, the 21st-century world you and I love to live in needs those risk-takers! ![]() 1 Like |

Kobojunkie: Oga no dey Yan opata. I have worked in a food processing company abroad and I knew what I experienced. Infact, to stand one place 2mins in the name of rest, u see urself shaking. To maintain a little warm body, u have to be busy and constantly in motion whether u are tired or not. I worked in an ice section, and I nearly got frost bite. I had to quit cos my body was never same, no matter how many pants and shirts I put on. I even use two handgloves. Only thing good was every wednesday you can take as many meat, fruit and other food items home. 1 Like |

tiwasiaife:What has your body's weakness due probably to ill-health on your part to do with the entire food industry which employs millions of workers who work tediously all day and sometimes into the evenings to ensure people are fed? ![]() 2. Again, what has your ill health and lack of stamina to do with the food industry abeg? My first job by the way was working the lines in a food factory. I stood most of the day and my body did not break down in the way you describe yours did. Even in the winter, we did the same job — wearing protective gear so we don't get wet and cold — and did not suffer any of what you claim you did. So why is your experience there which I believe is mostly due to your illness and possibly lack of discipline, the standard by which jobs in the food industry should be judged? ![]() 1 Like |

Kobojunkie: His body was reacting to unfavorable work conditions, you're saying "ill-health and lack of discipline". Is the human body created to be in those extreme cold conditions and to be standing for insane hours? Even soldiers do develop health issues due to cold and some collapse due to long hours of standing on the parade ground. It doesn't necessarily indicate ill-health or indiscipline. Some are just better at somethings than others. I can bench-press 90kg barbell in the gym. Does that mean men who can't hit up to 90kg are indisciplined or have ill-health? 1 Like 1 Share |

Kobojunkie: You keep referring to Nigeria like it's a yardstick for measuring working and living conditions. Nigeria can't even be used as a yardstick to measure standard of living and working among fellow third world countries. If we are talking about US, stick to US. All those "in Nigeria" everytime expose your lack of arguing prowess thereof. 1 Like |

Drella:1. So, the millions of others who work those same jobs, their bodies did not have this reaction because they are not human bodies? Cut the bull abeg! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 2. News flash! The human body can adapt to some of the most adverse conditions out there. That is why many can work the same jobs he balks at for many years without the kind of complaints he has. It all means his particular problem was personal and not widespread. ![]() 3. How many of them quit as a result of that? Does the army simply let them walk out when that happens or urge them to push harder — in the case that no underlying health conditions are driving such breakdowns? Make una dey honest abeg! ![]() 4. It does and the army example is a good reason why we know this for a fact. ![]() 5. The answer is a resounding yes! Why? Because you had to train your mind and your body to the point that you now bench-press 90lbs. A person of similar build as you who DOES NOT train his mind and body to achieve that same goal cannot be reasonably expected to do the same. A person of similar build as you whose body is weak due to ill health or mental illness is likely not going to be able to achieve the same goal either. ![]() None of this is rocket science! ![]() |

Kobojunkie: Nigerians doing it in Nigeria don't have the qualifications to work a better job. Some do it well into their old ages. But Nigerians doing such jobs abroad usually have qualifications for better jobs. They are only doing it till they get a work permit or something. You can't compare doing a job almost permanently in Nigeria with doing that job just temporarily abroad. You should only compare permanent jobs in Nigeria with permanent jobs abroad. 1 Like |

Drella:This is all bullsheet and I am sure you know it! ![]() ► I know an Agricultural Science graduate doing exactly that in Lagos State. He was featured in a video on BBC not too long ago. ► Many of those who drive keke mopeds in Nigeria are university graduates who were not able to get jobs elsewhere in Nigeria. ► There are market women and men(some of them butchers) who have college degrees they can't do much else within Nigeria. I recall watching videos of a crayfish seller who was in fact a college Graduate, and the same applies to many who work as mechanics in Nigeria. But what you are here attempting to shove down our throats is some like that graduates in Nigeria cannot do dishwashing, warehousing, cold room, or even chemical plant jobs in that same Nigeria? You dey Ok so? ![]() 2. They have qualifications for better jobs based on what exactly? If these qualifications they have could not afford them a better life and pay in Nigeria, why do you here assert that it should be worth a lot more than it does in Nigeria? ![]() 3. Workers who worked in a company where chemical plants are used — like Coca-Cola, Pfizer, Nestle, PZ—for 10 years or more in Nigeria are not to be compared with workers who did the same in a developed country. Workers who washed dishes in a boarding school cafeteria or even a Coca-Cola plant cafeteria for many many years should not be compared to workers who worked the same number of years washing dishes in the kitchens of a restaurant or school cafeteria or even the army kitchen in a developed country. Are you OK at all? ![]() |
