  1. To be honest we need to look at it from both sides…my brother look for a job out of your field for now..one person paying bills in UK is not an easy task..maybe madam is angry because she has been telling you to get a smaller job for now and you refused…but even at that..she has no right to talk to you rudely…it only takes mature minds to overcome in this country…this is trying time for the both of u …you guys should try as much as possible to overcome this problem.

  2. In my 1st 3 months i was doing a lot of interviews that ends with "Unfortunately" we have better candidate. After which i got a job with Amazon, did that for some months as well, I remember being very depressed even though i was making some little money. Going through this as a professional Accountant was indeed tough, I have a very supportive wife who knew what am capable of. I stayed motivated even when it was tough, I was surrounded by very loving church family and today I am back in my profession not at the position I am qualified for but I am sure to grow over time. My advice for him is to start with little and grow.

  3. My honest advice to the man is to look for support work in his area and be doing for now, they are usually less stressful and pay the same or even higher than care in most cases. If he doesn't find support work, then he should get a care job even if it's twice a week that he'll be going, then use the remaining time he has to be actively searching for the kind of job he wants. Truth be told, it can't be easy for a family to survive on just the salary of the wife alone. It won't be easy on her. If he's doing care twice a week, he will at least have little contributions to the family expenses pending when he will get the kind of job he desires and the financial burden on the wife will be reduced.

  4. Sad 😢 But one needs to look at it from both sides; maybe she is repaying him how he must’ve treated her when he was the breadwinner. Cos we know our African men & how they can be a tadbit misogynistic. I hope they get through this. Sending them love & light.🧘‍♀️

  5. As a retired professional from UK, over 40 years, I've found out that a lot of people in my African country don't save money. They don't know how to. Africans tend to live for today. If one gets a bonus, they splash it on some unnecessary items or even a party. Or when there's a family funeral, they use the money they have to make the funeral "plash*, what for I may ask? As long as the person is buried. I once went to a funeral where they served tea and bread after the burial. That's what the family could manage. Feeding 200/300 people at a funeral is very expensive here in Africa.
    Even for weddings. I advocate for a small wedding and very modest reception. There are ways of cutting down on expenses for a wedding in Africa. Stay blessed.

  6. if it me was I was going to divorce or leave and start my own life afresh, peace and living happily after is the most precious thing in this life, this man got no peace in that house but he has to man up for himself for his survival , its time he pulls all his strength and courage to find another job a find a peaceful home.

  7. Don't give up please. There are Universities with administrative positions depending on the place you are. Job fair too will help and there are community libraries where job adverts are placed at their entrance. Please also join VAG group UK for men it helps a lot too. There are free courses in colleges of further education that could give you a certification in the UK. Some big companies like Amazon also have opportunities in Admin, Learning and development opportunities. Everything will be fine. Most importantly pray. God will take control

  8. This question keeps ringing in my head. Why would someone already very comfortable decide to thrash everything God has blessed him with and take a 50-50 gamble to start afresh in a foreign land where you are just being tolerated and accommodated?? when will humans be satisfied with God's blessings?
    Starting all over in the West is a 50-50 gamble especially if you have attained a level of success back home, built a family, and have children already depending on you. It's better to come abroad with a direct job offer or come in your early 20s and 30s so you can grow in the system, be vibrant enough to match most of the energy-sapping jobs and have time to switch careers. If not, just stay put where God has blessed you and continue to grow. Come for vacations, send your children to University abroad when they are of age. Just my opinion though.

  9. My advice to him is to help out in other ways as much as possible. A lot of African men believe solely maintaining in traditional gender roles in marriages. He will be sitting at home doing nothing, expecting the wife to be a breadwinner and maintain every single duty a traditional housewife will have. She is expected to cook, clean, take care of the children, amd take care of him all by herself, while he will be sitting idle saying that he is a 'man'. This pressure is too much for any body to handle alone. If this is the case, I do not blame his wife honestly.

  10. If he believes in faith then I’ll advice that he makes a sincere prayer to God to have wisdom on what to do (job wise) and how to handle the situation with his wife. In terms of jobs, for now, he will need to take a humble approach because he needs to start from somewhere i.e. admin, book keeping, cashier, sales, care, paid apprenticeship for jobs in high demand in the UK, etc. It’s better to be employed whilst trying to find something better. I don’t know what career background he has but he can definitely showcase his achievements in his CV in a way that shows he can add value to whichever company that he is applying to. If he doesn’t already have one, he can create a LinkedIn account and showcase himself to recruiters. He can go with his CV to recruitment agencies, relevant seminars or specific employers such as Tesco, Sainsbury’s, etc for full time or part time roles whilst he upskills himself. I think it will be worth trying to have an open and non-judgemental conversation with his wife on an action plan because they’re in it together. If both of them have a united approach to tackle the issue rather than at each other, they’ll be able to overcome this struggle with God’s help and have a testimony. Challenges show what we have inside of us i.e., selfishness, pride, or empathy, understanding, patience, etc., Although it’s not easy, try to put emotions aside when dealing with challenges so that you can take required actions even when you don’t feel like it. I hope this helps and I pray God gives him strength to overcome this and to have peace and unity in his marriage.

  11. It's not uncommon for this to happen. Please pray more. I remember when my husband came , 2 and half months after, no job, we both know he couldn't do care job for health reasons. But he was actively applying like 40 application a day, went job centers , and eventually he got a good job in Dec 2023.the bills are very high, I wonder how I would have managed. But as a woman I controlled my emotions , I was angry most of the time, but I tried to suppress negative reactions. Because when he was doing well, he gave me all I needed.
    I pray God will help you and your family. Don't give up.

  12. Depending on the husbands professional career, I think as his wife's dependant he stand a better chance to get a job in his field. Also, I will advice him to get something doing as a man in the house, even though is little his wife will still appreciate that.

  13. First of he is in a very good position as he is a DEPENDENT so therefore he's able to get any job. In terms of jobs as he tried applying for TFL? I am assuming he lives in London, if not he can apply for Transportation roles in his area, they are ALWAYS looking for staffs and the salary is GREAT! We have drivers (Bus Drivers), I am unsure if he can do "Moves and Changes" . He needs to APPROACH the Bus Depots and Train stations : How to become a train driver in London
