Using
a man sacked from his N235k-per-month job, as case study, Alibaba
advices jobseekers and those unsatisfied with their jobs...
Comedian Alibaba
Multi-award winning veteran comedian and the father of Stand-up
comedy in Nigeria, Atunyota Alleluya Akporobomerere, popularly known by
his stage name, Ali Baba, has taken to his Instagram page to share some
inspiring words to job seekers and those unsatisfied with their jobs.
Read below;
"Good morning to you. If you have a job, go to work and make
sure you earn your pay. If you don't have a job... get busy with self
improvement, so that when the job comes, you will hit the ground
running. If you are in between jobs, be sure you make the right moves.
"Don't take your regular income for granted. Don't let the
things people you work with do... make you reduce the deliverables
expected of you. The job you have now may mean a lot to you than you
want to admit. I have met a man who kept complaining of this stupid work
he has to go to all the time.
"Then one day as he was walking through the gates of the
office, the head of human resources, who likes to observe the body
language of staff as they resume from 7am till 9am... noticed the
countenance of our frustrated guy. She continued to monitor him for a
week. Then from several feedback mechanisms she had set up in the
organisation, she found out that, whenever he was at lunch, he would
complain about how the canteen was poor.
"How he was just managing to come to the office daily. And how
he can not wait to take his leave. Unknown to him the canteen manager
had a feedback mechanism. Other feedbacks included pool drivers. He was
let go in September last year.
"Spoke with him last Sunday and now, he MISSES WORK. That same
office that frustrated him daily. He told me how bleak his Christmas
was. He was earning 235k monthly. And it was barely enough. Now imagine
not even having that stipends? All the people who he thought would take
him if he was available now say NO VACANCY.
"The bottom line is that having a job to go to is a boost to your self esteem. When you have one value it."
