My friend in Canada employed a recent graduate from Nigeria, who is currently awaiting her NYSC, as her executive assistant.
The responsibilities were straightforward: manage email correspondence and assist in organizing her daily schedule. She worked for 2 hours each day and received a monthly salary of ₦650k.
After 4 months, she came to the realization that my friend was quite influential. Perhaps she received poor guidance, but she sent an email requesting a salary increase.
We terminated the contract immediately. Now, she is inquiring whether she can continue working for the same compensation.
Are we being unreasonable for declining her request? 🤔
