I also took care of my older sister's child. I was not paid money, but I often bought nice clothes, shoes and school supplies and motorbikes.

That's was still great that you were rewarded at the end of the day. That's to show the appreciated your efforts.

My first menial job was baby sitting and I was rewarded well since I was doing it for my workaholic aunt. How about you?
That's very interesting. I do pay for babysitting too, to my mom.

I did laundry and dry-cleaning as a student to make money. I have also done work on the farm.

Things were very hard and I went to carry blocks on a building site. I was being paid NGN2,000 on average a day.

By the third day, I had broken down and I was hospitalized.

I thought 'menial job' means a boring job. The first job that I did is a service crew in a fastfood chain before. It was my dream to work as a part-time job during my university days. Before I applied to work as my profession after graduation, I worked as a service crew for 6 months only.

For me i think my first one was working as a personal assistant to a lecturer back then in school. Though it was not really an official job but i got some extra cash from that.

I have worked on a construction site because I had an impromptu field trip to go for outside the country. I worked at tye site for three days to raise money for that trip. I carried blocks, mixed cement and other construction activities.

There is that one point in a person's life that happens to test your character. That point where you are completely broke and there are needs piling up for you to meet. What would you do? When I was there, I had to do the noble thing by taking menial jobs.
