BOWING GRACEFULLY OUT OF THE SYSTEM...

  Reminiscing on how I walked into Gtbank St Gregory branch for the first time to do an Interview sometimes  in January 2013, The first person I met was Ifeoma Elekwachi of Lekki branch( Now Mrs Dada); former customer service officer for St Gregory branch. I was so full of excitement and couldn't wait to start with the bank, so that kept ringing in my head that I needed to put in all efforts, to pass that interview.

 Fortunately, I was the only person that was called out of four, who came for the interview. I guess, Mayowa Fasasi saw that I had the qualities to work as a customer service personnel, so she suggested to the management, and I resumed at St Gregory branch precisely on the 13th of February 2013.

 Working all through, as a customer service personnel, was dramatic, interesting, brain-tasking and most times, very challenging. I had learnt a lot in the interim.

  I had a good working relationship with my colleagues, but I wouldn't say that it was smooth all through. Definitely, there were times when we had to scream at ourselves, just to make the job done precisely and accurately. (Its part of the job, like we all say) lol...

  Now, I have resolved to move on; deciding to bow out of the system was not a bad idea.

  My vast experience with the Guardian Newspapers LTD, as well as the ones I garnered working with the Guaranty Trust Bank PLC, is enough to build me a career. I appreciate all for supporting me throughout my stay with the bank.

  I acknowledge how Mayowa Fasasi put me in the know that I had no excuse! nothing should ever stop me from being knowledgable. Ifeoma Dada made me see reasons we should learn to work as a team. Funke Jesumuyiwa, Andrew Irivboje, Toyin Momodu, Olaide Amolegbe ( Nee yusuf) and Happiness Umanze were CIS officers I worked directly with, They were all awesome and very good at what they do. More grease to your elbow! I LOVE YOU ALL.

  I cannot but appreciate Somtochukwu Madubosah(Nee Okafor), the one who brought out the best in me; A mother indeed. I profusely appreciate your unending efforts concerning me.

  Adekunle Ademiluyi( A. K.A KALALA), the boss with swag. lol... You are just a gem; I doff my hat for you. Why? Your advices were very useful to me, I must say! I never went a wrong direction seeking your counsel at all times.
  Lanre Imam-Lawal,my boss with a very calm nature, but a disciplinarian to the core. You dare not come late to branch meetings, be sure that your account will be short of a thousand five hundred naira(1,500) for that week! because you'll have to pay a fine. I seriously have learnt to be time-conscious, working with Lanre. Thank you sir. *salute*

  And Just when I thought the show had ended,  I was again transferred to GTbank  Marina, barely 2 weeks to my resignation.

  It was though, the busiest Gtbank  branch I have ever worked out of, but at the long-run, I was able to identify that I had a strong ability to multi-task.

  I sincerely appreciate Kazeem Salami, Idoreyen Akhigbe, Adetoun temitope, Ayodeji Okunade, Olayinka Asagba, Ayobami Adeboye &  Opeyemi Lawal for making the atmosphere conducive enough for me to work out from.
.
   And to all my friends & colleagues, especially at St Gregory, words alone cannot explain how much I  love you all .
 
   Shout-out to all my CPC fellas, you are the best!

   I can however  be reached on 08028332077 or 08077076802.

  I appreciate all your support and I pray God grant us all our heart desires. (AMEN).

BANKING...AT THE LONG RUN





Hello peeps! Long time yeah? Sincerely, I had been doing what I had found myself doing in the past few years; banking. There's been no time at all.

However, combining banking with blogging is sure not a very easy task. I had missed blogging a whole lot!

 Well...I am back at this, because I am delving into something new soon.

  I hope NOT to be unfaithful about this again.
