I did Retail banking for four years and I can comfortably tell you that it is one of the toughest units in the bank.
Many people think the job is simply about opening personal accounts. It isn't.
You open an account, then you have to make sure it is funded. After that, you need to enroll the customer on the bank's digital channels and ensure they collect and activate their ATM card.
If those things don't happen, the account generates little or no value for the bank.
Now imagine going to a random motor park for an account opening campaign.
The first challenge is convincing people to share their BVN and NIN. Those are probably the hardest pieces of information to get from an average Nigerian.
To make things even harder, many of them already have accounts with other banks and see no reason to open another one.
After you finally convince someone to open an account, the next battle begins, getting them to fund it.
In many cases, Relationship Managers end up funding some of these accounts themselves just to get them active.
Then comes ATM card collection.
You'll be calling, sending text messages, and following up repeatedly just to get customers to come to the branch and pick up their cards.
Retail banking is definitely not for the faint-hearted.
Having both your father and mother alive, hale and hearty.
Not on any medications, not paying hospital bills, no chronic illness.
Ask anyone. They'd kill for this.
If you have both be grateful.
If you remove my wife from my life this past 72 hours, I fit kpeme.
We have been moving houses and everywhere is so scattered like mad but once I ask “where is my blue boxers with duduke painting”, she will go straight to the point. “Uhmmmn, it should be in the yellow bag beside the bed”. What of my green comb with black tattoo? “It is inside the black box on the shelf”.
Women actually own the home. I feel like an alien. With how scattered and overwhelming my life is, she still has every detail in her head. Obirin 🙌
If you have a wife that's a Relationship Manager, or any sales role, don't be surprised if she wakes up one day and tell you she's done with the job.
The pressure in sales can be overwhelming. Targets don't stop. Customer demands don't stop. The expectations keep increasing.
For a woman, it can be even more demanding when she has to combine that pressure with raising children and managing responsibilities at home.
I can imagine the pressure in running around to meet target and also coming back home to face a different kind of pressure. Not everyone have the mental strength to do this job and still remain sane without breaking down.
This is why as a husband you should ensure your income is well enough to carry your home. See whatever contribution your spouse brings as a support to the home.
Your wife may decide at some point that she no longer wants the daily pressure of sales and would rather focus on the home and family.
The truth is that carrying the mental load of work, marriage, motherhood, and home management at the same time can be exhausting.
@Ilerioluwakiye_ 100% this. Introducing someone is a huge stamp of approval, and I hate the idea of wasting my parents' emotional energy on someone who is just passing through.
I don’t think your parents should officially meet your partner till you know this is the person you actually want to settle down with & get married to. I’m so big on that. I can’t bring just ANYBODY to my parents.
