@AttorneyF_ Interesting piece sounding intelligent, but lacks understanding.
American is perceived great because they understood media power.
Respectfully, if you haven't impacted 10% of the lives he has. I suggest you respectfully sit down and shut up, you don't understand this.
@wisdomsocial_1 I guess the individual gets results when he never expects it and maybe don't when he believes he planned properly, and also maybe he only uses Facebook or ultimately, he thinks adverts override bad offer.
If you're in tech in Nigeria, exposure is very important.
Nigeria is not the USA. You can't create something in your garage, and it goes global.
You most speak out and defeat imposter syndrome.
@asemota Overwhelmed?
I have military friends, chief insecurity in Nigeria can end in 90 days, if the government decides to.
The military are deliberately under armed and sacrificed. Blame the Nigerian government.
FAKE IT TILL YOU MAKE IT
Become arrogant. Make others gossip about you. Break social rules. Be unapologetic about your actions. Act from your highest will. Remain hopeful no matter what. Walk like you own the place. Move like a winner. Rest because you deserve it. Get things because you want them.
Reality responds to those who live as if they already have the things they’ve always wanted.
Hard work is a lie.
Let reality bend to your will.
I thought Activ8 was a scam when I first heard about it.
Netflix + HBO Max + ChatGPT + Canva + NordVPN + Disney + Hulu + Prime Video... all for ₦10,000??
I went to verify and honestly I owe them an apology. If you are yet to subscribe to an activ8 plan, you are on a long thing
@theveraogbebor@flavour873@AskEmmy0 Aha! Got you!
I think this ends all logical argument to defend the said wife.
Don't wish that for your siblings but here are you defending her.
Just accept it, what is bad is bad. She did bad and there's no justification for that. Simple!
Respectfully, the job output doesn't come with location tag, why should the pay be determined by location.
Remote workers have rights to demand for a global pay provided they will deliver global standard.
No one should shove nonsense down their throat 'cos they are in Nigeria.
Since we're on the conversation of recruitment.
There's this guy you people were cooking over the weekend - who had opinions I agree with.
He pegged 500K - 1M/month to hire a video editor from Nigeria & he was called all sorts of names with rhetorics like:
"He should have hired from Canada".
Here's what I think:
1. That people are working remotely from the global south, doesn't mean they should be paid peanuts. 1M per month IS NOT peanut.
2. There's an obvious reason he didn't hire from Canada. From a business perspective, it makes sense. It is the same business perspective that a lot of web3 based companies digitally based in Virgin Islands have offsites in Nairobi, hiring a lot of Nigerians/Indians.
3. There's a reason why Spotify/ Netflix/ YouTube charge people from Vietnam, India, Nigeria differently from people in Canada or France. In fact, people in Poland and Bulgaria are charged differently from people in Switzerland. There are people who had accounts in Nigeria before moving abroad, that have refused to even migrate their accounts because they're still paying in naira. (Proudly one).
When billings and payments are structured, it is done from a geographical and economic perspective.
4. Regardless of your public tantrums, there are people who are currently begging for 1/5th of that offer, with exceptional skills. What makes this unfortunate is - it opens the portals for dubious employers to take advantage of desperate job seekers & it enforces a culture where people are actually paid less than they deserve.
This is the main reason why we need to promote a culture where we can have reasonable debates when these conversations pop.
You live in Nigeria. That 1M payment might be enough to clear out your entire annual rent (Lagos is not Nigeria). If he's to hire someone based in Canada, pay the person $3,500 - it might cater to just a month's rent.
Realities differ.
If you live in a 3rd world country earning 1st world currency, for your exceptional skills - when you're paid significantly higher than your peers who live in the same 3rd world country earning 3rd world currency, earn it and shush it.
If you want to demand finely equal pay, as a Nigerian resident with a Canadian resident - find your way to move out of Nigeria and immerse yourself in the same reality.
"you are in Nigeria, so don't demand for the global rate of your skills"
Nigerian remote workers knowing their worth is a problem?
You are a shame @TamiloreAdewuyi
