What I Know For Sure

If you have lived outside the shores of Nigeria and are now returning to invest, you are a target for most people because having the opportunity of travelling is a crime on its own. People come to you for all sorts of help. The question is, should you be of assistance or ignore their attitude?. Is it the man that promised to deliver the goods and you don't hear from him in three years and when he finally shows up, you ask for your money and he says "after all you have the opportunity of travelling abroad, we are still here struggling here in Nig....." and you wonder at the way he thinks . Just because you live abroad means that you do business and not make profit? what is this? I have employed over ten to twelve workers but all they want is to get paid without doing the work. They are not conciencious workers. They talk more than deliver. Its almost like talking the talk and not walking the work. They practically see work and run. When your attitude to work is serious, they wonder why you bother to get up in the morning and work till 5pm or 6pm ( sometimes longer hours). They think you are crazy to be working that hard. They practically want to do things for you, not becuase they want to, all because of what they can get, they pretend to be efficient for a minimum of two weeks , to be exact, fourteen days later, you begin to see the real personand their attitude to work!. Until then, I'll keep you posted about what I know for sure about.....
