Now and days alot of youth have the mindset that hand work are for the poor, which is wrong. Most even go further downgrading some professions. I will try and make this brief. For instance

•Yah really wealthy and there's is no carpenters, just tell me how yah home will be furnished.

•Imagine say you get funds and you wan build house or construct any business building. And no labourer (architectures) tell me how you wan con tey do am

•I save one of the best and most common for last farmers, just imagine all those farmers nor con dey tell me how you go tey feed Etc
Also same things also goes on with the other professions I didn't mentioned

Because now and days wetting most of our naija youth know nau yahoo Yahoo (fraud) most of them duh take am as hand work seff. Which is bad just imagine everybody focus on fraud and neglect the rest hand works and professions Omo life go hard the more ehhn even though funds dey wetting u wan con use am do.
 
So anything yah doing as long you know yah doing or learning the right thing always Try and do it well, because in the future you will then know the value of the foundations you lay now.

Wetting You talk na true, despite how everybody dey find way to work smart or online, e still dey important for some people to also learn handwork. I believe say everybody no fit be thesame sha. because in as much as the economy is concerned many people still value skilled job or hand work pass online jobs or less stressful job. reason being that online business or less stressful job be like lazy man job to them or na scam. Mean while na because of them no dey educated and no smart to do that kind job Naim dey cause am. So wetting I wan let you know today be say, no matter how we do am, or people wey go do those work them wey you dey talk must dey, because lack of management dey bring many people down to the standard wey dey make them do wetting dem dey do today. While others na poverty. so to cut the Long story short, all fingers are not equal. so for that reason no Mater wetting we talk, or even if them give everybody money to start up business today as a form of competition, before month go end %70 of people go broke to the extent of going back to the street. So definitely no matter what, most people must serve others for the circle of Life to complete.

Like they will always say that knowledge is a waste , every profession is good which if one don ahm well him go fit get the least wey him go take help himself.  Everything na consistency,  as you continue to do it that is how you will grow in it, make people no look down on their profession. In life na who give na fuck up , in everything you find yourself doing try to make sure you do it well because when it is done well people will come after you just because of your great work.

Handwork na better something wey every body for this country suppose use package himself cause nobody knows tommorrow any kind of opportunity fit come out wey go worth better money and base on say you no dey skillful you no go fit account for anything.

Make we forget all this stuffs these yahoo boys dey potrate nothing comeout ones time reach dem go account for am. Shey dey no gree go school, even the ones wey go still no dey pay attention na to carry money dey sort out course normally time go reach to account for all this years wey dem dey lavish and surely if they no put better business for ground wey go stand for them for the future dey go live to regret and time waste na time waste no recovering.

I remember that year, one of our Nigerian musician sing one song e say 🎙️🎵 ogah nor take the job when I dey do dey laugh, no condition is permanent, nor take the job wey I dey laugh cause all fingers are not equal 🎼🎶. I no go lie that na real matter, we dey do am today no mean say na for the rest of our life we go do am. Beside if we no hustle how we wan take chop. I am very proud of my hand work oo, because naim dey give me money wey I take dey feed even before this update lap my depor. And if you observe very well many of those boys wey dey do scam, Dem don see say the street don dey hard, some don start to come back house like prodigal son. While some e go soon reach their side.

Come to think of it, don't you think the parents who are forcing their children into top professions like medical field, law and so on are also to be blamed. They instill the myth of "money when you start working into their children and she their children loose interest the start looking got alternative ways to bring home money for their parents. Everything problem in the society has a cause that was just as little as a matchstick on fire.

If these children were to follow their dreams from the start, maybe most of them would not go for the fraudulent and less honorable things to do with themselves. Every profession is extremely important. Parents should tell their children things like this before waec or from a little age and let's see what happens next.

Laziness and the zeal to get rich quick is what has made the youth of these days not to take learning of skills serious and they are busy looking for how to get rich without passing through stress. If you are in a construction company, this is when you will see how important having a skill is because with your skill, you will be able to have a standard way of living.

All hands are not equal and in whatever profession that you find yourself, you can be successful in it, all that matters is that you should have the passion for it and also bring out the best in your on that skill so that, you will become a professional in it and when people will recommend you to other people in need of your service. What will work for you might not work for me, and this is why we need to find and know the are that we fit in and specialize on it.

To be sincere I never see person downgrade skill or learning hand work, the truth is some people no wan just learn new skill, they prefer making money the simply way and na why people dey involve in human trafficking and trading of human organs.
Several times skill don help people and the different kinds of work wey dey common now na learning of skills, even if you get the aim of going to school no mean say learning skill na trash.
I no know how them dey take refer to trash stuff but learning of skills no follow and I never see am before.
People go always dey to learn skill and render service na why everybody no dey the same and even the ones wey go school no job na hand work them dey take survive so why downgrading handwork.

The only thing that makes difference in every profession is our expertise, how experience are we in the area of our profession, are we doing more to learn and advance what we do or we maintain sitting on the same spot over a long period of time, we cannot expect something new without doing something different, we need to always think about making what we do advances to the next stage in life, this is one of the evidence to show how relevant it is and how determined we are in doing what we love doing best through our professions.

every homework de important for the progress of the society and e no make sense make we look down in any person work as long as e de legit.

Na until your care break down for road and you de in need of agbero when go push am commot for road na then you go know say agbero too de important for the functionality of the society.

The only thing when you need know here be say e get some jobs when de a bit stressful and e no de wrong if you decide say you no go wan do that kind job and you come go find skill when go make you work for the environment when de conducive for you. Like most of this carpentry or brick laying jobs de involve say you go de under sun and personally I no go wan do those kind job for a long time as my profession na one of the reason when de make me tilt my carrier towards tech even though na engineering I study for school.

As for those yahoo matte, na real talk you yarn like this, so many of out youth de go learn yahoo as handwork and this one no go well at all and e no de show us say our future go too make sense as a nation, if everybody jump enter the yahoo, who go come bring up innovative ideas when go de needed for the development of our country so we fit measure up to the global growth that the world is experiencing now.

No matter the field you found yourself or your profession as the case may be, all is regarded as being very useful, the major problem is how good are you at what you do, can people recommend you for what you do, what matters in this life is seriousness and adding more skills to what you are good at, as far you do legitimate stuff, I regard whatever anyone does as being very useful, this is if we really understand it, what I didn't do in this life is to belittle humans, the person you see as nothing today can be off help to you tomorrow, that's why it is important to value whatever people do as a means of survival.

ALL PROFESSIONS ARE IMPORTANT
many people felt or look down on people Beginning in life and some even have doubt in their performance in life... because they are discouraged of their little beginning.

My brother's make ona no reason the stages on still dey for life, everybody get e own time for e success and also time for anything way you done learn as handwork. Like they said nothing is a waste. All professions are working in every area of the world and very important because with our professions we can get a standard life. and never underrate anyone profession.

Normally our people sabi dey lazy for job wey go out food for their table I still remember one of half brother wey I tell to go learn mechanic work to take help him life because say since school no favor the next thing wey go help him life to go learn skill wey go put food for him table in the next 3 to 5 years time to come. If him sabi this work e go also help am take good care of him family but refused to put eyes even acada matta him no too grab there so me con consider am to learn that work to help himself.

Many people are actually stocked in the thought that there is only few ways to the top forgetting that there are many profession that seem neglected yet they are very important. If you visit the oil bearing states, you will notice a lot of the youth studying Engineering in school because they believe that if you are an Engineer, you can easily secure a job in the oil companies. They forget that even inside the oil companies, there are lawyers, nutritionists, medical doctors and even those that study international relation. In every field of human endeavor, there is always diversification which make every profession important.

Many people only realized that they have chosen the wrong profession or course of study after graduation. Some were actually forced into what they studied by their parents and guardians. Choosing career path is very important as that will to a large extent shape ones future.

That's is the mentality of most Africa parents choosing prefessions for their children when they should be the one to guide the child in any professions he or she want. For instance you see a child that wanna be software engineer being forced to study medical courses like some one I know of his parents went further telling him to write WEAC again due to fact that they want the child to study medical courses and the child is an art student so just imagine after passing all your exams yah being forced to write everything again to please them.

Don't force anyone on what he or she wanna become they have the right to decide just play your role as guiding them that is how it's supposed to be. Not the other way round I hope anything we doing aslong is genuine, should favours us all Amen.

Well for the discussion wey you throw enta ring unto say some labourer jobs people don dey run comot from them and looking for bigger hit. Really people no dey gree learn work again, they want quick fast money and that is why scam don plenty because yahoo yahoo don become more popular than learn real hand work. Instead wey youth go learn work dem go prefer to go learn yahoo runs.

However, the fact say people dey reduce for labourer jobs no be issue because their exit go get after effect with the economic principle of demand and supply, their value, service, worth and financial reward go increase soon and like it is already by the ongoing inflation self.

Again, in such cases if to say the country economy dey very good then migrants go begin come in to take up those jobs like e happen for naija in the past wey Togo, Ghana and other West Africa countries citizens dey naija dey hussle. Just like naija guys too don dey jakpa go other countries go hussle.

This is a key concern especially amongst GenZ as any work which requires our physical efforts apart from using laptops has become like a outcast and the problem started when the previous generations has worked hard and provided good education t younger generation but as we excel in the technology we are forget those manual works which technology shouldn't be able to replace and i have made a similar topic in regards to how those blue collar and skilled workers are not getting due payout and respect as people look down at them. We need to understand that's it's not profession but rather person who should be valued. 

Basically there is no handwork/skills that is either limited or inferiorly ought to be underrated of its essentialities to the society.
There is no bridge of necessity that the offers of the manpowers nor the skills bases are undermined and unproductive to humans needs or practices to offer o inductive ness

Yeah there are alot of professions and handwork everywhere but most young people don't see it interesting having one cause they want to make fast money not knowing that striving now to enjoy later is more better than enjoying now to strive later.
Most of our parents had made that mistake that had made so many young people suffer now.

Most people as well don't have a back up and support, a person going for handwork must have a backup at least for the start to keep you pushing many people also start and stop half way. And if you have a hand work hold it tight many people are also looking for that opportunity.

We don't know the importance of hard work and we don't know the definition of hard work hard work does not necessarily mean a skin accusation that we aware whatever thing you need or whatever thing you are doing what you need is a desperation the desperation is the hard work people I emphasizing on because if you feel reluctant in anything that you are doing the thing will not propagate very well so that is why people mention hardworking and another people understand hardworking differently

You’ve raised an important topic OP and I really want to also emphasize on the importance of every work. Most of the hand work people neglect today and look for other ones they feel they’ll put in less labor to do are the most paying now. If you want a beautiful house and environment, you’ve to employ this same people to do it for you and you’ll be charged high base on how you want the house to be furnished. Every hand work is important and as so, none should be neglected when you have the opportunity to learn one. At the end, no knowledge or work learned is a waste, you will one day apply it in your daily life at some point even if you don’t capitalize on it everyday for your daily source of income.

This is quite applicable to life generally,  for instance the human body are made up of cells and organs which performs unique functions let alone the different part of the body with it function. They are all doing there functions to make a complement of each other, and this what makes life interesting and valued, none can be neglected or think more higher than the other but to fulfill life expectations.

Yeah. All professions are important, one cannot do without the other. As long as it puts food on your table without killing anyone, it's alright.

Gone are those days when one has got to stay stuck in a work that isn't right just because of being employed. One has to at least have endured some strains before the conclusion on the best approach to work becomes clear.
If the job pays or have prospects of paying better than it currently does, I see why one shouldn't become a professional by mastering the process or improvement on the knowledge one already has. This is what qualifies one as a professional in any field be it as easy or complex as writing campaign materials or something else, when one improves on the job description, have done it for a long time and keeps doing it till they are known for it, then one has become a professional without much debate.

Maybe people look down on other professions but i do not. I believe that all professions, skills and talent are very important. It is good to value your profession or skill and the way you advertise yourself is very important as well. Infact these days those who have skills are the one who are making lots of money in the country if you compare them to day-to-day workers in a firm or company. If you have a skill like a carpenter you used for example is a very unique skill because the luxurious furniture's, TV consoles, personal bedroom and kitchen cabinets are being done by these set of people. And we all know how expensive these things are. One thing is to have a skill the other is to give value to your skill and be proud of what you do.

If we listen to what people are saying about us based on what we do, we won't go far in life. This our country has made some kind of jobs less of value. But all thanks to social media who have made branding of our profession easier. Now you can see a fish farmer proudly showing her pond on TikTok in a more presenting way. Bringing the right customers to her reach. Same things go to other professions. Just do more marketing and good pricing on your services people who value what you do will surely come for you without stress.

In my secondary School day I learnt about division of labour very important in every society where ever the citizens focus only on one thing there must so many deficiency in others and that brings about unbalance society. It only an ignorant person can see any profession as waste if time or valueless Field. Mostly the area of agriculture people see it as suffer but no body can stay for months, years without food, I have never seen any body that eat money without passing through of converting the money into edible things through buying of the food, even the scavengers that peaks waste supposed people by of such are not there how will the environment be op your very correct no profession is of less important.

I gree well-well say all professions dey important. Each one na im get im own unique way to take contribute to how society dey run and develop. Whether na doctors wey dey save lives, teachers wey dey educate future generations, engineers wey dey build infrastructure, or artists wey dey inspire creativity, every profession get im own key role to play for how we take shape the world we dey live inside. E dey important make we recognize and appreciate the value of every profession and the people wey dey dedicate themselves to their work.

But, the main thing be say when new technology and economic zones show face, we gots to embrace am like Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Because this blockchain technology don open door for new economic era. Embracing new tech like blockchain and crypto, like Bitcoin, fit open new doors for economic opportunities and fit transform different industries. Blockchain, with its decentralized and secure nature, get potential to shake finance, supply chain management, healthcare, and other areas.

Cryptocurrencies dey offer innovative solutions for different financial transactions, including cross-border payments, remittances, and decentralized finance (DeFi) applications. Dem provide accessibility, transparency, and security wey traditional financial systems fit lack for some areas.

By dey current with new technologies and understanding how we fit use dem, individuals and businesses fit position themselves to fit adapt and flourish for changing economic environments. Embracing innovation while still recognizing the importance of traditional professions fit lead us to balanced progress and economic development.

That is why you see fraudsters everywhere in the land today because, they don't want to spend some time to learn what will put food on their table than to join internet fraudulent that will make them to regret for the rest of their life.
 
Sometimes people will be thinking you are wasting your time in that particular thing you are doing in the society until someone connect you to somebody that will give you some contract that will lift you from nobody to somebody that will make those that think you are wasting your time in that handwork will praise you later.

I think you mean that no knowledge is a waste because with what I read you type that knowledge is a waste but I can understand since it's a common mistake for everyone that constantly types.

Well me I believe say nothing wey no dey important and most especially when e come be your discipline. Many there is one law of nature I won't forget which na the one wey concince hard work, commitment and belief because these things na watin man gats work with in other to be successful e no matter the profession just dey do your things dey go and you dey OK.

This is absolutely correct, all profession are indeed important as they have role to play in society. The reason many of us grow up thinking that some professions are not important is because of the way our country is structured. Our leaders have failed to expand our economy beyond politics, oil and gas, medicine, law and few others.

In a working economy, areas like sports have the potential of generating more employment than many popular professions. Just imagine how many sporting events exist and the opportunity they present. We neglected it and all of us want to join the oil companies or become medical doctors.

I vouch for this way of thinking because we need to understand that people or class cannot be determined by their profession but unfortunately it's happening globally as people kind of look down at those who are skilled labors or daily wage labors and so does the society as they are more hardworking than an average person who sits in office and work 9 hours in a comfortable set up but still they get paid very less and I have made a similar post highlighting about how we are neglecting them and being bias here when it comes to the payscale as well.

My post in regards to the same but on the scale of salary : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5478162.msg63336150#msg63336150

Yes you are right. It is that mindset that has rendered many youths jobless. Handwork is more profitable if you really want to be financially independent. School is good but it is better to study a vocational course that will teach you handwork. Going to school to learn only grammer no longer pays anyone. You must learn to unlock your creative ideas so that by the time you graduate you will have something to create wealth for you instead of waiting for a white colar job that is not available for the poor anymore.

What you have already started are some facts, but in my perception, what you are talking about is that not everyone will be rich, so the youths and teenagers should lower their gaze and go for the available occupation and stick to it because if everyone emphasizes doing the same work or engaging in fraud, it might not be the way for others to prosper, which you are explaining as a diverse way to also gain other income and leave a better life. I am not criticising the topic; I am just explaining my perception. which I add up with some explanation.

Although people tend to see what others do and prosper or gain as what day will do also to get rich, in some incidents it is good but in others it is bad, because not all things that work for Mr. A will work for Mr. B, so we should also be thinking on other ways to get rich, not waiting or trying to follow what others do all the time, and again, most importantly, you should always find your wealth through the legal path, not the illegal path, to even have blessings.

The thing wey dey be say, we the youth of nowadays our eyes no gree they for one place, you go see person wey have a good hand work, wey dey pay him better money but him go feel like say the work no dey bring money for to ball like his friends. Some people sef will leave their hand work to face another hustle as if they don't even learn hand work in their life. To even do fraud is it not until person have sense? As you they see many youth wey dey do fraud so they have sense pass each other, some of them immediately money enter their hand all they know is to spend it anyhow, no be all of them they invest or have savings, if everyone start to dey do fraud, we go dey order anything we need online.  ;D

You know say no be only poor people they do farm, majority of the wealthy people now don start to they farm too, as money they nobody will ever know say them dey do farm because them they use money to run everything. No matter what we do in this life, make we no be like say we have another source of income and leave our hand work for back that the stress is too much, as we don't know how future will come, in any situation if we cannot support anyone make we no downgrade anybody hand work.

You dey completely correct for wetin u talk, na true say every profession dey important and e no get as e wan be, people just gats to dey do them before things go fit go as e supposed go, just like the example you give, brick layers or carpenters they very important to the society, of not e go hard to build houses. But the truth we go also know be say those kyn jobs no be for everybody, e get people wey get strength for those kyn manual jobs, e get people wey get strength to do those kyn work, and e get people wey be say them no fit do am, but e no mean say people wey no fit do am dey lazy or them no serious...
Yes all professions dey important, but no be say everybody go come choose to go for handwork cos if e come dey like that, the online jobs go come dey vacant and we already know say that side dey very important too to the society.

We can never get to that point in life where everyone will do the same thing because every has there different mindsets about a thing . For example we cannot get to that point where every woman will start wearing trouser and we can not get to that point where every woman will stop wearing  trouser there will always be variation in ideas
As such we will always have all professions and people will always do things that interest them though recent times people have been so carried away with the quest of making fast cash but  I think not everyone can actually resolve to fruadulent activities

According to wetin u talk all profession dey important as well as knowledge,no knowledge wey person acquire na waste.Like wetin u talk if carpenters no dey who go dey furnish our furnitures so every profession dey important because dis professions wey pipo dey feel like e no dey important dey play important role for the society.Some youths wey dey feel like say to learn skills na waste of years no know say the Yahoo wey dem dey do don cast now white pipo don know some of their format so no be everytime dem dey cashout.Handwork na beta thing and be only poor pipo dey learn handwork.

I really go against the idea of forcing ones child for a course but most times parent needs to guide them as they may be too young to decide right on what to become.

You are completely accurate; all occupations are vital to us and to society, and each career contributes to the operation of our communities in unique ways. For example, healthcare personnel provide critical services that keep people well and safe, whereas educators help form the next generation. Farmers grow the food we eat, building workers build the dwellings we live in, and teachers guide us in the correct direction. There are numerous occupations, each of which is significant in its own manner. That is why I look at people who says school are scam.

My brother any body wey talk say hand work no good bah the person no go do better thing with him life , na only rich man pikin go talk say hand work no good for him because he Dey sure him papa fit provide him need for him but this days I Dey wonder why even the poor man pikin go Dey behave like say no be from poor family he come from, we have to understand that this life no be waiting we Dey think, E Dey sweet for you no mean say you go Dey enjoy go be that and you no fit Dey do yahoo come Dey think say you don make because yahoo no be work and it is not something that you should depend on.

And about the hand work my broda Learn hand work to the extent say make you learn am very well because na hand work get money now, people wey no learn hand work , if them wan do any work them must find person and they must pay the person money for the work , so make we try carry shoulder come down because if we take look at people wey get money for Nigeria now bah, na business men wey Dey hand work and most popular one na people na the farmers because as a farmer wet get farm product now you don get money, in fact na him be odogwu now as food price rise.

I can relate with what your actually saying here but even still, I can tell you that the idea your presenting like, these are poor career choices or a poor man’s job isn’t what it is.

It’s all about the packaging. The packaging and how it’s presented to the public makes all the difference. Talking about carpentry, i think it’s become one of the most lucrative business in the country at the moment. Most person have gone into interior decorations, companies are been built about it and ideas continues to be projected in that angle and people in the business are doing okay.

Architecture and the so called oguanja people na just how we don see the name. There are registered companies about this line of works. They have on field and off field staff to deliver on a job.

While the farmers you talk about, farming for a poor man’s career choice or job, even our one time president Obasanjo was/is a farmer. He owns one of the biggest farms in Nigeria and his no poor man. Farming is either subsistence (small scale) or commercial (large scale). Even in these packs you’re either a livestock farmer or you grow crops. It’s just so vast and with so much opportunities to be a poor man’s job.

There is no poor man’s job, it’s just the capital it’s run on and the way it’s packaged and presented that makes all the difference.

All Professions are important, imperative, necessary and complimentary to one another. The entire human society is an organic whole, made up of different parts. Each part is important to each other and each specializes on a specific function for the growth, development and continuity of the society without which society would die. Thus, each part is a Profession and members of society practise them.
Therefore, all Professions are important and must be practised for the continuity of the human society.
