cloud9usher:
Jalamoh1 you really took your time to drop this bomb to have a voice and your voice would surely be heard. But before I go on, your claim of defrauding FBN is an appalling act and you should be ashamed of your pathetic and greedy self to say the least!
Well, I have first hand experience about a lot of things you said about First bank, especially the ill treatment of service executives; in as much as FBN service executives are nothing compared to those in banks like GTB as regards pay and all, I would say its a general thing all over Nigeria. I would talk more on this issue not particularly to FBN contract staff but by the general outsourced/contract staff issues we have in a lot of firms in Nigeria.
Nigerians generally love to ride on the lower people in whatever class or situation, that's why you see rich folks wanting to be the only ones who have the big generators in the area so their rich status can be felt. Its a Nigerian thing, its a social malfunction trait in us.
Outsourcing in other countries is not that bad, its just a way for firms to save cost and all, but here in Nigeria outsourced staff are basically slaves and are treated with disdain, that's so wrong!
Nigerian management team of firms take advantage of the situation of high unemployment and milk graduates dry of their efforts and reduce them to nothing all in the name of finding daily bread. Back then in 1998, I remember how my elder ones and uncles who graduated with 2:2's and 2:1's from the university making choices from lots of job offers like a kid in a candy shop , top firms all over the country gave them jobs, some companies even paid for your transport fare to come for interviews, this got me encouraged to make sure I finish secondary school and get into University so I can be successful like my uncles and elder ones. But what is the case today? Millions of graduates with 2:1's and first class degrees can't even get a 20k a month job, how sad!
Core staff in banks scold contract staff like they are dogs, and treat them with no regard, this shouldn't be so. I promised God I would never be part of core staff who act this way towards contract staff when I get fully into FBN as a management staff.
More than 50 percent of girls who work as contract staff in banks got their jobs through sexual favours, and then when they get the jobs they still are obliged to give sexual favours to core staff that are randy and licentious, such men have the time of their lives having these ladies do whatever they want to make sure their jobs are kept floating.
But I'd like to correct one thing, contract staff make it seem like all of the work is done by them, that's not true, I have experience as a contract staff but I will state the truth, not just for the sake of truth but because I'm enlightened about what I'm saying. Bank contract staff feel because they do more of the monotonous and mundane tasks they feel they do more work, its not, yes they are not paid enough but to some degree, core staff are still more needed.
Core staff make policies and strategic decisions that decide the constant growth and progress of the bank, the contract staff that counts money at the counter is not more important than the risk management executive who makes sure the bank operates on a healthy risk lending criteria and all, I can bring a lot of examples here to buttress my point but I would stop here.
And I commend FBN in including service executives in this present GTP so they can be converted to core staff, service executives conducted AC along other non banking experienced candidates recently so I think you need to cut FBN some slack on the accusation of never converting contract staff to core staff, at least its evident FBN is converting now; with respect to this years' GTP as an example.
Finally, all I would say is that if you are a contract staff, strive for the best, never settle for your present level, keep getting more knowledge, apply for better jobs and don't stop dreaming; dream big, you'd surely get there if you are determine and focused. I had always thought nairaland to be a crap filed site. I stand corrected. This single thread I found last week changed that perspective. So many intellectually sound posts, this one is simply the straw that broke this camel's back. It's beautiful. This link also soothes this feeling inside, im so releved to know I'm not alone in this high rate "chill pill" consumption. Lol. 2 Likes |
