So I got this job of an Electrician in a furniture company at Bode-Thomas. Though the pay was meager but I decided to boost my knowledge since !y role goes in line with !y qualification.

I got paid on my first month of joining them, but subsequent months no pay, I would walk from Ijesha to office to and fro on daily basis.

The CEO would get supply of millions of naira, the next thing is to fly abroad with his wife to enjoy. His workers that brings the money are left to suffer, he doesn't care.

I decided to resign but the MD pleaded that he would speak with chairman, and he actually got him convinced and he increased my salary with more responsibility; that I would now supervise cleaners. One of the cleaners told me that he was also employed as furniture technician until he was asker to supervise cleaners now a full time cleaner.


Na so I resign fully; the small salary you can't pay how am I sure you will pay the new pay.


I got a teaching job in IKD, I worked for barely three months and a govt job offer came my way.

My own Bode Thomas? I know the furniture company!!!

personally I struggled understanding your write up. I had to re-read again to get your point, yet it still wasn't all clear.


I knew it wasn't that good still dropped it no time to arrange write ups. Please it's my write not yours not forcing you to read and understand...

Let me add mine, sometime ago, got this job advert via WhatsApp, the doc seemed reasonable. Asked basic questions about my qualifications and then location. We negotiated and he 2as honest enough to say the best he can pay is 40k per month. I decided going for locum with him would be better. He also opened up that he sometimes owed salaries as he doesn't get patients often. Placed me on permanent night, 2 days after,he asked I prepared for surgery, told him, oga for surgeries you pay me differently. He pleaded with me, I agreed. Was placed on permanent night. Quacks come in the morning and spoil work for me, in the night I'll be taking care of almost endangered patients.
One night I told him I'll be leaving, he said he won't pay me full cos i didn't meet up to management expectations. Told him point blank, you are management and if by doing the job of 10 people for peanuts means I'm not upto expectations, I won't have it. He then said I should have given him a months notice before I leave if not I forfeit my month's pay, but if I can get a replacement, that's when he'll release me. Til him if that's all, he said yes. In less than 10minutes of posting the job online, oga came back and said abeg that the calls are too much, his Gmail is crashing cos of CV submission. Next day strolled out like a boss. A week later he sent me my pay,(not complete) and called that in case I'm still interested in working for him, I shouldn't hesitate. I told him he doesn't have a conducive working environment and as such I can't venture to his hospital again. Few months later I dey obodo oyibo

So many funny experience here.

Let me share mine.

We were on semester break at that time, so i was in Lagos to hustle and get some cash to take back to school. So, I and my younger brother decided to look for jobs around Ikeja.

We were up early at around 6:30 am. We got to Ikeja and saw lots of people at the entrance of a chineses Nylon factory. Obviously, they were waiting to be picked for the job.

We decided to join them and Doing the waiting periods we heard gory tales of how a worker there had one of his legs cut by the machine while working and they just paid him 60k to take care of himself.

Still not deterred by that, we waited. Then at 7:00am on dot, the gate was open and the Chinese guy first examined us critically, then pointed hands to me, my younger brother and anyone who has a good built and height. My brother come and see how people were begging to be chosen-all for slavery.


Thereafter, we were addressed and each of us were given identification card.
Later, a Chinese guy came and started given us a card to our department. He gave me engineering Dept, I was like this guy dey craze ooo, where somebody leg was cut recently. Then , my brother too to engineering department. We were to resumed by 7pm since we would be working night only.

Later were told that the pay daily is 300 naira. We went back home and when it was around 6:00, I asked my brother if he would be getting ready for the job.. he was like what's of me....lol 7pm knack nobody commot for house.

Wait the guy who had a technicians job was asked to supervise cleaners following which he became a cleaner.... and the company put you on the same pathway to cleaner hood...

Men people are evil and shocking but this is freaking hilarious. One of the best so far.

This is One of the funniest thread.

My was during my one year I.T I went out to hurt for a job, finally I came across one computer training center been that I studied computer science, I decided to check them out.
They invited me for an oral interview and was told to tutor the students on ms word and PowerPoint which I did very well finally I was congratulated and was given an appointment letter and what I saw in the appointment letter was that my take home for every month would be 3k which cannot cover my t.p #300 tro and fro, or my feeding, but I accepted because I no longer want to stay at home each day, I needed to leave home each morning. To cut d story short I work with them for 3months and find my way.

Anyway I also saw that it was a voluntary job in the appointment letter.
But at least my tutoring there enhanced my memory too.

I just felt the need to share my story..

Rewind back to 2017 after graduation while awaiting NYSC I decided to get myself busy. After searching for job all through the street of Benin city I fininally found one at 7up bottling company in iguosa/oluku. Having no idea of the job description I walk up to the receptionist who gave me an insight and told me it was a factory work, wat to do? I said no problem she then directed me to one oga segun who his suppose to be the one incharge of factory workers so I met with the oga segun he asked what my name was and why I think I will be able to work in a factory after giving him satisfactory answers, he gave me my job description which involves arranging 7up or pepsi product into their truck.. and for every 40creates u pack and arrange u get #100 naira, I don't have any choice I accepted. I resumed the next day and after I've worked for about 9hrs I was only able to arrange 400 creates and I was giving a #1000 naira but when I got home I couldn't stand up the next day that was the last time I entered there. I just decide to go learn a skill and by God grace I will be finally going for service by August...

But hearing the tales from people in Lagos too am surprised because a friend of mine has told me how their are a lot of jobs in Lagos and u even get paid while learning a skill there, according to him he was earning #40,000 naira per month while learning plumbing in one of those tech companies in lagos


Please can you give me your friend link for the tech company. I’m interested in learning plumbing also

He dumped the sand, stood there and was breathing heavily. And then one of the guys called him to inform him I was looking for him. NOTE, egbon Mufu was backing us when he was called upon,reacting to the call egbon couldn't turn his neck he had to turn his whole body cos his neck has already gotten stiff due to the pressure from the heavy basket of sand he carried couple with latic acid burning.

Haven't really gone for any crazy interview. Nnpc interview happens to be my first ever interview after service..

I learnt how to fix tiles after secondary school. Right now, that's what I do for a living. I earn some good money though, but it's quite stressful.

Just praying to God to bless our hustle with a Good job.
Amen Amen
