The only lesson is that time was wasted enriching another man. What to do next is become your own boss. Use the experience from your previous job to create a job for yourself, full-time or part-time. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Why will you even allow them sack you, why not resign for your integrity to remain intact? 1 Like 1 Share |

When one door of happiness closes, another opens but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened that is why some times government job is better o. federal government job to be precise not state government job that they do not pay on time no one will threaten you with sack letter except you have done something wrong and even if you do. the worse you get is a query letter and it affects your promotion for that year after that year or period your promotion continue there are always union to fight for such workers welfare although all these unions are very corrupt like our union they deduct two thousand naira from our salary every month but there is nothing to show for it. they don't fight any reasonable battle for us up till now our over time allowance, shifting allowance and hazard allowance remain unpaid in fact life dey tire person sometimes but wetin man go do 4 Likes |

While searching, look for a small place where you can also volunteer so your cv won't be blank or have two much vacuum. It will also give you an opportunity to leave home and interact with people, thus improving your opportunity to get a new job 1 Like 1 Share |

Xtaceeey: Let me break it down for you in the simplest form. Looking for a job is a game of numbers. It has nothing to do with whatever god you worship or how hard you pray. You have to understand how to apply math and probability to whatever you do in life. I used to get job offers left right and center. Here's how; Back then, i used to buy guardian newspapers every tuesday plus any newspaper i knew always placed ads for jobs. And then i would buy a stack of envelopes and stamps. I would apply for everything in sight even if i was not qualified for it. I studied public administration in Nigeria and all my working career was in marketing. First in retail merchandising and then brand management. In a week, i would have applied for at least 10 to 15 ads. That's about 60 ads a month. Multiply that by 3 months. No how no how, out of that 60, 10 go call me for interview. My friends used to wonder why and how i was changing jobs. But, that being said, hopefully you had already prepared yourself over the years for these job interviews. The way you carry and express yourself and also ensuring you had/have the verbal and mental skills to engage whoever is interviewing you. That in itself is a big challenge in Nigeria. So-called graduates cannot hold a conversation even if their lives depended on it. Fadeyi Oloro movies don dabaru their heads finish. Doubt me? Just scroll through all the threads on NL and witness what graduates are spewing. 14 Likes 1 Share |

Getting fired does not equal incompetence rather it's a sign that there is that thing in you waiting to be unleashed- one way life helps us. Terminantion/jobloss is a period to discover your real self mostimes. For instance, a guy was gathered because he was arranging union and motivating employees to stand for their right. right. It simply means his passion is "people". Helping people get what belongs to them and saying No when there is a wrong. This will be an opportunity to venture into a social enterprise for human rights. So, Job loss is really an opportunity for determined, motivated, focused, insightful individuals. I have been there and I can tell. It won't be an easy journey. Save while working because it will be a long tough road but truth is it will come best than imagined. 1 Like 1 Share |

matrix199: Not everyone can be an employer. Using your flawed argument, the individual he will employ will be enriching Omoruyi instead of delving into entrepreneurship. Moreover, entrepreneurship in Nigeria isn't for the fainthearted. 2 Likes |

Let Omoruyi go and start his business and then employ workers who will be gagging him up in the name of fighting for staff welfare and let him be happy. |
