Reactions as employee complains of early salary
Many who came across the post were surprised at the lady’s utterance after receiving her salary.
TheTalk.NG compiled some of the reactions.
@nsikannicholas said:
“How much do you pay her so we can know why she made that statement?”
@BlitzOba said:
“A good question though, also it seems the assistant wasn’t given a designated pay date for each pay, hence the question . I have sales managers where i work earning over 600k and they’re still eager for pay day, even those earning 700+ so how much will make someone even say this.”
@BlessinDickson said:
“X users are so used to hearing stories of struggle, people chasing early pay or living paycheck to paycheck, that when someone says, “I don’t need it yet, I still have enough to last two months,” it immediately feels like a lie to you. You were expecting the assistant to come online crying about not being paid, just so you could drag him.”
@Hammdriller said:
“She probably sees the job as a favor. Must be young too.”
@harmia_world said:
“Sack her joor.”
@Udoka_AM said:
“In my experience of being alive nobody complains of too much money. Just saying.”
@SavantMexeno
“I’m disgusted by people like this. Just collect the salary for your job done and move on. Imagine it’s not just her; the boss is unwilling too(next time), causing a delay in salary payments for others. What’s with the pointless information to start with?”
