Morning dear readers. Hope the Easter celebration was awesome?
It continues today so you can still make it awesome, if it wasn’t. Last week, I
decided to do a series on the blog that
is about answering questions that bother youths, teenagers and adults alike.
Questions I’ve come across around the internet, blogs, teachings and also hear
your contributions but unfortunately, I didn’t achieve that so we’ll just
continue this week. you can read that of last week here. I’m going to be posting daily as there are lots of
questions bothering people. You can also send in any you have here. So here’s today’s question:
My husband just got
displaced in his place of work. I have a well-paying work so my family depends
on me now. A lot of people depend on me only now. But my new boss is making sex
attempts at me and has threatened to fire me if I refuse to oblige. My husband
hasn’t gotten another job yet. What do I do?
This is the ordeal of many
in our present dispensation. In fact, some believe you can’t get a decent job
if you are a lady without sleeping your way in. It’s that bad. Some of the posts
of naijasinglegirl about her job hunt will be informative on this. This should
not be so but what should anyone found in such predicament do? If you are a Christian,
pray. Talk to God about your predicament. Talk to your spiritual heads too, to
join you in praying. You should also talk to your husband about it, it would
stop you from taking any impromptu decision and also make sure he doesn’t do
anything rash especially if he is the jealous kind. Prayer still works. Ask God
for guidance. If you have to leave the work, you leave, God will provide
another, He takes care of his own.
Again, since “new boss” was
mentioned, that means there are higher personnel than he. Get some concrete
evidence against your boss, like him on a tape recorder or phone recorder and
report him to those higher than he is and an action will be taken against him.
You can as well get a
lawyer and institute a court action against him for sexual harassment if the
higher authorities do not act. At this stage, they will be quick to do
something to prevent dragging their name in the mud. The reason many people get
away with things like this is because we do nothing. We just give up, accept a
sack letter, go home, mourn and bear grudges. The courts are not there for
decoration and if you take a wrong doer to court, it’s not wrong. It’ll put a
check on them.
However, support your
actions with prayer and God’s guidance.
