The issue I am about to share happens daily, a friend asked me to post this short tale to see how many
honest responses there would be. A certain lady was referred by her uncle to a
top executive of a multinational to be interviewed for a job. At the end of the
interview, she was told by the executive that she was successful but she
noticed that there was a quirky look on his face. Then the executive told her
that he desired her and would love to spend a weekend with her. She gave the
man a piece of her mind and told him that he was a dirty old man; she also
threatened to report to her highly placed uncle.
She made good her threat and
reported to her uncle but got the shock of her life when her uncle reacted in
an unexpected way. He told her that she was a foolish girl to have turned down
an offer for a job that would pay her three hundred and fifty thousand naira a
month, give her an official car, medical insurance, housing allowance and other
perks. He asked her how much her boyfriend paid her monthly to sleep with her as
it pleased him.
This story reminds me of the
discussion I had with two friends back in University days. We asked each other
if we would sleep with someone just to get a good job. One was honest enough to
say that she would not think twice about it, she would. Please don’t ask what my answer was. Of course
“I was and still am a very good girl” lol.
Now the girl in the story doubts that
she took the right decision, she is thinking of taking the executive up on his
weekend offer. Hmm, sleeping with someone just for a job position get as e be
oh!
You have to do what you have to do but what is the guarantee that she will be given the job after sleeping with him? A contract signed of sort? If she can live with herself after that, then I say enjoy. But Amaka am still interested in the answer you gave back then, lol.
ReplyDeleteIt's not worth it! She will be enslaved by the executive. Whatever you get by "that" has to be sustained by "it". She might end up doing alot more to get more favors. For me that's another form of slavery in the market place.

ReplyDeleteShe took the right decision and needs our support and prayers. Her uncle can go to hell with his high paying job and his friend. But this is if only the lady herself is a child of God but if she have been sleeping around then her refusal amount to nothing
ReplyDeleteMy sister that's what we have in the country these day. Even political appointments. Its not strange cos it the normal give and take. Its left for one to now decide on which way to go. I have heard of a married woman that had to slept with 5 executive members of an oil company and got the job she needed. Today she is one of the top members of the organization. Am not saying it is right but one can't survive without a good job. Its really a case of what you want and how you go about it. She is not the 1st and won't be the last.

ReplyDeleteMost times it shows the bad girls getting all the best things like the best hubby,the best job,the best cars,best clothes ,just the bestest in fact..The holy girls seem to get no where with their holiness,even I have a school mate that is so beautiful and yet unmarried because she refused pre marital sex,in fact she is still a virgin at 39 but no man seems interested.
Not wanting to seem as judgeana here but I say let your conscience,your innermost mind be your guide.When your spirit rejects such offer,let it go please.What works for A might not work for B.I have been bold enough to ask a lady I know,she is married to the 4th husband,Each of these marriage is always as elaborate as the former....I boldly asked...Nne how do you manage to get these men,she laughed and promised to get back.In deed she visited my office,she told me how she use juju to hook these men and when their money finish,she will dump and move on to the next.Some of these bad girls gooo extra miles,as in ????Sooo my dear if you don't have the strength don't join because sleeping alone might not guarantee that job..
My submission though
If I am in the girls's shoes, I will decline the offer without making a show of it. Interiorly with a lot of pity, I will pray for the old man's conversion because he is most unhappy and to be pitied. I will never substitute my eternal destiny for all the riches of this world. What do I need a good job for if I get through a crooked means. The end will never justify the means.
