Happy Tuesday , beautiful people I am @ekeke from Nigeria. to all here. It's another opportunity for us to tell our stories but first of all, let me appreciate @hiveposh for giving us an avenue to express ourselves. I hope you learn from my story today.
HOW IT BEGAN
This is a story that has to do withy workplace, it's a long one but I'll try to cut it short. Few years ago, when I graduated and went seeking for job, I saw one close to my place and applied, I got the job and I was given subjects I liked which I taught. That was literature and CRS. But we were never always paid on time. Then apart from that, my boss was very good in calling his staff names like useless, fool, and so on. At a stage, he started threatening me do I had to leave without my pay for that month. I let it go. I left my state to the East to with and I stayed there for a while but due to the insecurity there, I had to come back.
CONDITIONS MAKES US ACCEPT WHAT WE ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO
When I came back to my state, I looked for jobs bit couldn't find ones favourable to me, and I have always preferred the teaching field.Its either the pay is too small and can't cover transportation or I'm given a class like preparatory which I have no experience in. So on a particular day, on a Sunday precisely, I was going to the market w 9jahen my boss saw me and drove or reversed back to meet me. He said that the literature teacher that was there in his school was a law student and ASUU had called off the strike, so he would like me to come takeover. Due to the fact that I was already short of cash looking for jobs, I accepted. I started the work but there were many changes, even negative ones. Holiday lesson was now running even in December, meaning after school closes for the term, holiday lesson starts immediately, from December all through to January, no rest but when I was there before, it was only in April and august. The second change was that whatever you earn, 5000 naira is deducted and kept as savings but the truth is you will never get it. Then I also found out that the name calling had worsened to the proprienutor even telling staff 'you will be my slave forever ' abd then as usual, salary was always paid the following month sometimes middle of the following month, then deductions had worsened it.
Today I'm to be in a better situation.
