Given up @27

I'm27, male, based in Kenya, with a bachelor's degree in environmental studies

Since I graduated, I've been looking for a job in my field. Nothing. After a while I got so tired of applying and hearing nothing back that I tried something else  I did webcam work for a bit. It paid but it wasn't worth it, it drained me mentally, so I stopped.

Then I took the little money I had saved and opened a wines and spirits shop. It actually did well. Things were finally looking up. But then the authorities kept demanding more and more money from me, and I couldn't keep up, so I had to close it.

Since then I've been applying for jobs outside Kenya too, for a whole year now, mostly conservation and environment-related roles. Nothing. No replies, no interviews, nothing.

Honestly, I'm exhausted. Not just tired, exhausted. The kind of tired where you start feeling like just cutting up your passport and being done with the whole idea of leaving.

What I'm good at is communication, community advocacy, and anything to do with social media I've basically grown up online so I know how to navigate it. I'm flexible too, I can learn and do almost anything, not just environment work.

Title: I’m at my limit. I’m looking for any kind of honest work.

I honestly don’t know how else to say this, but I’m really down right now. I’m facing eviction within the next two days, I haven’t eaten today, and I’ve been surviving on whatever little food people have been able to give me.

I’m not asking for free money. I’m willing to work for it. Any honest job — cleaning, laundry, errands, manual work, helping in a shop, moving things, anything. I just need an opportunity to earn enough to eat and keep a roof over my head.

I also have two Lordwell-type watches that I’m willing to sell if anyone is interested.

If anyone in Nairobi knows of any casual work or any opportunity at all, please DM me. Even a lead would mean a lot right now.

I’m ready to work. I just need someone to give me the opportunity.

Is KSh 25k–30k Gross a Fair Salary for a Van Driver in Nairobi in 2026?

Is KSh 25,000–30,000 gross a reasonable salary for this van driver job in Nairobi?
I came across this job advertisement for a van driver in Nairobi and I’m curious what people here think.
The employer is offering KSh 25,000–30,000 gross while asking for:
2–3 years of driving experience
Category B licence and commercial van experience
Clean driving record
Knowledge of Nairobi and surrounding routes
Ability to use Google Maps/navigation
Basic vehicle inspection and maintenance knowledge
Loading and unloading assistance
Handling company property and clients’ belongings
Customer service and communication skills
Flexible working hours, including weekends and public holidays
Strong responsibility for safety and client property
My question isn’t necessarily whether the job is “good” or “bad.”
Is KSh 25k–30k gross actually a fair market salary for this level of responsibility in Nairobi in 2026?
If you’re a driver, employer, recruiter, or someone familiar with the logistics/moving industry:
What would you consider a reasonable salary?
Should weekend/public holiday work be separately compensated?
Does the level of responsibility justify KSh 35k–40k+?
What are drivers actually earning for comparable jobs right now?
I’m interested in hearing from people who actually work in the industry rather than just guessing.
