So many interesting-to-read stories. I've had my own dose too. Got an offer of 3k monthly in 2009. I actually did it for more than a year until I finally gained admission. The value the job offered still helps me till date

So, this happened after secondary school. I was home, got tired and decided to get a job.

Saw a sign at a restaurant; SALES GIRL NEEDED.

I branched and I get told the space was still vacant but to come back tomorrow to see madam.

I was elated, told my siblings and they were looking at me one kind. I did not mind, I sha just wanted to be leaving the house.

Got there the next morning, I saw madam and she goes:

Madam: We don't cook the food here, we cook at home and bring it. Your job first thing in the morning would be to bring in the food.

Me, thinking it was going to be in a Keke or even a taxi said no problem at all

Madam: You sabi push wheelbarrow?

Me:

Madam: Because na wheelbarrow you go take push am come every morning.

Me: OK ma, I'll come tomorrow. (finalized everything but never went back)

I was offered job to sell medications on a molue bus. I had applied as a marketing officer.

czarina:
There was this very long ASUU strike. Decide to get a job seeing that it wasn't ending soon.

I saw a sign; FACTORY WORKERS NEEDED

Got there and discovered it was GNLD, after plenty talk, they came clean and told us it was actually a sales work and we'd become managers and manageresses (whatever that means) after only three weeks.

So, they offered a free training, and after plenty of motivational speeches, the trekking began.

We almost trekked the whole of Delta state and when we finished, the manager asked me how I enjoyed (God forbid bad thing) my sales experience.

Me: (already angry and with running nose from the trekking) It was great, I'll resume tomorrow

Oga manager called and called, I no just bother pick him call.

Erums:



Ain't. Making sense sir... This thread is not for your kind... Just read on

I was once called by one of the big entertainment center in Edo state (kada plaza) for an interview, that very day I was so exited and highly elated, I had high expectations and hopes that i was about to start a career in a big firm, I ironed my trousers and starched my shirt.
On that faithful day I matched magestically to the center for the interview there i met other potential employees, I was confident in my self because I know the kind of stuff I am made up of.

It all began when we were asked to que up and one after the other we began to go into the office of the MD for the interview. I was eager for it to get to my turn as I wanted to unleash my persona on the MD.

Finally it got to my turn and I walk into the MD office head high, when I got there I was asked to introduced my self which I did, the MD was an Indian man asking me all sort of questions in his Indian ascent I kept answering him and lecturing him on the job of which I was being interview for..

When he was satisfied that I could handle the position effectively it can to the stage of salary negotiation..

He asked how much will I like to be paid I told him i am open to negotiation. Then the shocker came he started from 10000 then 15000 and finally he said the best the company can pay is 18000 naira.

I just walked out of his office and started heading back on..

Lesson : you should not judge a book by its Cover.

I am still job hunting, praying hard to get a job at least that can make me settle down and start a family.

That's my story

Edonice:
Monthly salary, he his an indian man so he probably thought that 18000 naira is the minimum wage

Ytea:
It was during NYSC, while on camp I met with the ZGI through a gender equality awareness group I joined, she told me there's this NGO that needs a female Corper, that's how I entered it. The NGO building was an abandoned flat in a market place... I was like OK, let's see what happens. The owner goes, "em I don't have anyone working with me, so you'll be the one to open and close everyday, you clean the whole place, I'll get you acquainted with some of the paper works we do here, so you'll take over. I mustn't forget to mention that some churches will want us to come speak with them on Sundays, so be ready to work on Sundays too. you'll be paid 5,000 naira, shebi NYSC is going to pay you 19,800". I was shocked, I told her to reject me o.

People like her are the reasons I dislike NGOs. Using Peter to rob Paul and getting rich at both's expense
