MY JOB AND I: A TRAP TO ESCAPE

JOBS SHOULD BE A STARTING POINT, NOT THE POINT!

The day you accepts your offer letter, begins the count of your contract of the job.

Job for salary is most times the end result of a school graduate. The individual is not to be blamed; i blame the educational system which is old and overdue for upgrade.

White collar jobs have blind folded us that we don’t care of the society and the future. We don’t mind to solve problems today that can create a better tomorrow. What we want are quick bucks in the pocket.

After 16 years of intensive learning, we still accept to sit in a “comfortable office” and receive penny as salaries for the efforts donated for 30 days of hard work. Running 5am to 8pm Monday to Friday.

How long do you think you can do this?

When you sign up for any job your contract with that company has a time frame, with an average of 35 years after which you will be dumped and fresh energies is injected and same cycle continues.

We seems to be happy when we land a job, of course we should but let’s see how it goes down the years.
