Am married with kids, my family is in Abuja while am currently employed with a private company in Lagos, the job is an unsecured one, could be fired anyday anytime. The salary is less than #100k without accommodation, have been managing with a family. Am six months on the job and don't see chances of settling down here due to the poor pay and high house rent. I have a car I can use on the uber platform in Abuja, will stay in my house and see my family on a daily basis (this is my desire). Pls is it wise to quit the Job. I seek your humble opinion. Thank you 2 Likes |

That's the best my brother, those evil employers are so heartless, probably cos we don't have government thus, they do whatever they want to do and will declare surplus at the end of the years and fools will praise them when they got it through slaving most of their staffs. btw, I wan sell muscle 07030954022

My brother! I dont think anyone in this forum is in your shoe. You know how these boils in you i.e both love of the family and taking care of your responsibilities with ease. Firstly, Take your time to understand the conditions and terms around your job and your family. Seek better advice from Good Councillor, then Pray to GOD Almighty to take the wheel. Na so me i see am o, i don't know about others.  10 Likes 1 Share |

First am happy you want to be independent, self employed. But the truth is driving job comes with lot of insult, and many things u wouldn't like. My advice to you, weigh your chances Ask advice from people who have been In the Uber business, ask how much u can make in a month and do your proper analysis. Don't forget that the car also needs maintenance. May God lead u right on this. 5 Likes |

I will say... Make necessary arrangements in preparation for your leave period. Use your leave period to start the uber stuff to see how gainful and certain it is. Then if you re convince that the uber is better. Then, the ball is in your court to choose between the two. Do not leave a job without knowing where your heading to. Then pray to God about it 40 Likes 1 Share |

Follow your passion and make it a possesion till you are able to prosper through it. You can only be rich at the end of the month while working for someone but you can determine your daily riches while being your own boss. Persevere. |

Bad decision !!!Quit your job for the unknown?? You need to test the water with one feet inside before taking take that huge risk of putting both inside. Do the driving on part time basis so that you can actually see what the business entail first before u resign your job. You don't even know if your vehicle can even stand the stress of uber 24\7 driving ,you don't even know if your health can even take it,you don't even know what policy uber can even take that might at any time that might not favour your car!!!lots and load of variabilities that you might not consider until you do the action and u still keeping to your job 10 Likes |

It's good you want to put your family first. Really commendable. Save as much as you can for a few months from the salary you get at the moment and then move to Abuja for your own thing. It's good to have a fallback which is why I recommend putting some money aside before going into Uber. So many unplanned things could happen, particularly with cars, so advisable to have some buffer. Good luck. 4 Likes |

gimakon: Is it possible for him do to his current full time job in the morning at Lagos and do Uber at night in FCT? Please enlighten me on what you really want to say or I would say you don't understand the OP story Anyway I would advice OP if he can after his work @ 5pm, do Uber work for few hours before heading home and weekends he can do it more profoundly, weigh his options before choosing to move to fct for the Uber work. Abuja Uber business is not as lucrative as lagos 1 Like |
