I have some advice for young men newly employed,
When you get employed:
• Be grateful to God, your parents, your mentors and your boss for this opportunity
• Work hard
• Respect your employer
• Adhere to your employer's rules and protocols
• Embrace the mission and vision of the employer
However, if working for your employer becomes unbearable due to other reasons,
• Quit respectfully
• Follow the procedures of quitting as written in your contract or employment letter
• Return your employer's resources in your custody
• Handover politely and thank your employer for giving you an opportunity
• Leave with a clean conscience
Don't be chaotic, abusive and contemptuous on your way out.
Don't think you are smarter than your employer.
The employer you are disrespecting gave you a livelihood when you were seeking a footing and direction.
The employer may not have paid you to your satisfaction, but be polite.
Don't go bad mouthing your employer, speaking nastily, and broadcasting your foul mouth while disclosing what is considered private policies, programs, products or services of your former workplace.
Leave courteously.
This way, you open room for better opportunities, newer networks and better leverage.
Don't be a rude employee. Other employers will fear giving you opportunities in the future because they don't trust you.
Be courteous when you close the door behind you, the universe will be kind to you on your way out.
Niliquit 9-5 ilikuwa inanilipa 150k/month.
Imenitake two years for my company kunilipa 67k/month na nafanya kazi from 7AM to 11PM every day, na sometimes unapata uko na employees wanakupea the hardest time ever, na kuwafuta kazi ni even more expensive.
Every month uko na bills za kulipa in the millions, end month kila mtu ako happy isipokuwa wewe juu uko na another 30 days kuraise another million. Na imagine all this trouble ndiyo net salary yako ikuwe 50k
Sometimes doh haitoshi unasema wacha ulipe the employees alafu KRA utawatumia yao by 9th, unajaribu kupata loan bank inakataa juu hauna shamba ya security, inafika 15th unapata weird calls, unashika unapata ni KRA, unawaambia utawalipa next Friday, wanakuambia Friday haiwezekani, labda Thursday. Inabidi uongee with one of your clients akulipe mapema, anakusomea akikuambia biz haifanywi hivo but anaitikia eventually.
Next week inafika unalipa KRA, SHA,NSSF, Housing Levy. Unahave some peace kidogo only to realize that next week ni end month na this time uko na deficit kubwa kushinda last month, and the cycle continues.
Kama uko 9-5 na uko sawa, I can’t advise you to quit. Heri ujaribu entrepreneurship in parallel but usiquit job yako. It feels good when you tell people that you quit your job to pursue your dream but you also need to understand that your dream will take time before it starts paying the bills, and it might also die before you eat a shilling from it.
I missed my flight in Nairobi once because of traffic on Mombasa Road.
Like fully missed it. I got to the airport sweaty, exhausted, dragging my suitcase like it personally betrayed me.
I already knew there was no chance, but I still ran to the counter hoping for mercy.
The woman checked her screen, looked at me, then said, “You were the last passenger.”
I laughed a little because what else do you do at that point?
Then she lowered her voice and said, “The plane is still on the ground.”
Next thing I know this airport employee is SPEED WALKING me through the terminal like we’re in an action movie.
Security waved me through, another worker grabbed my carry-on to help me run, and I’m apologizing to literally everyone while fighting for my life.
I got to the gate completely out of breath.
The guy scanning boarding passes looked at me and said, “Eh, Nairobi traffic. We understand.”
People on the plane actually clapped when I walked in looking half dead.
I have never respected airport workers more in my life. Big up to them.
@rene_bell3 Been living with it since childhood. Solution, I bath with soap only, no scrubbing the skin. Also, hotter showers are more comfortable. To dry myself, usually a very clean towel and pat dry, no rubbing the skin. No dressing up until completely dry.
Sabastian Sawe didn't break the 2-hour marathon barrier just because of the Adidas "supershoe." He's a damn good athlete. These East Africans all are.
I had to tell the whole world on CNN. Everyone be guided. Thanks for your attention to this matter!
I want a boring president. Entertainment is on Netflix, YouTube and TikTok. Charisma is in Kodong Klan. For presidency, I need less hullabaloo and more visible transformation.
As a man, always remember that a woman is not capable of loving you.
This is how LOVE flows in a family set up. God loves man, man loves woman and woman loves children.
Man humbles himself before God and gets his daily bread; woman humbles herself before man and gets provision; and children humble themselves before their mother, and she shall make them the best meal.
The love of women is inherently selfish and self-serving, even when they act friendly. The moment her feelings change, it doesn't matter how many sacrifices you've made.
If you think a woman loves you, you are mistaken. She loves what you provide and offer. If someone else offers a better price, it is just a matter of time.
Women are loyal to their own emotions and feelings, and you must always remember that when handed the right ammunition, you will get a “headshot” the moment she wishes so.
You can go to great lengths for a woman, but the moment you forget to say “Happy Birthday” and some simp out there tells her, the simp becomes Romeo, and she brings the battlefield home.
So, be loyal to your vision and mission in life. The rest must fit within that.
For those who read the Bible, even Jesus himself NEVER commanded wives to LOVE their husbands. Instead:
- Wives are asked to submit to their husbands as to the Lord, recognizing the husband as the head of the wife, just as Christ is the head of the church.
- The text instructs wives to submit to their husbands in all things, just as the church submits to Christ.
- Wives are commanded to respect their husbands, which is often interpreted as honoring, valuing, and highly regarding them.
On the other hand:
- Husbands are commanded to love their wives as Christ loved the church, which included giving his life for her.
- Husbands are to nourish and cherish their wives, caring for them as they do their own bodies.
- Husbands are called to be the head of the home.
This was no accident. Women are manipulative, and their hypergamous nature will humble you if you don't learn.
So, keep that frame intact, or else, she will run over you.
As a student of Sociology who has spent his time studying human behavior. DP Ruto presidency which I hope never happens will be Lethal than Moi's. You should pay attention on how he responds to criticism, how he acts when angry, how he lies in plain sight etc. Itakuwa mazishi.
Pot belly is a direct indicator of insulin resistance before it even reflects on your blood sugar. Once your tummy starts coming up just cut down on carbs. Avoid simple carbs totally, take walks and build some muscle.
Emmanuel Nyangoma is flying the Kenyan flag high.
Kenya’s first MMA fighter has won 3 fights, all by submission, and is now setting himself up for a possible championship belt fight next year.
Yes, we will observe non existent signs, see unmarked bumps, avoid abruptly closed lanes with no warnings, and clearly see invisible lane markings at night.
Road safety begins with us, not with good engineering
Just so we’re clear: none of the influencers defending Spiro actually ride the bikes.
They don’t live on them. They don’t earn from them. They don’t suffer the consequences.
The Biggest red flag;
Spiro sends bloggers and influencers to respond to real customer complaints instead of fixing them.
Worse, these bloggers are out here mocking and abusing customers — doing more harm than good.
Spiro forgets one thing:
another company will come, pay influencers more, and they’ll jump ship — leaving Spiro with a tattered reputation.
Their communication is a mess.
Why is a marketing executive calling customers past midnight? From their private line?
That’s not customer care.
That’s panic-driven damage control.
David’s story is really special, which is why I reached out to him in October about sponsorship.
I’m not in a position to throw big money at player sponsorship, but I was able to help with his travel costs and build his profile to a UK audience through my channels before he set foot in the Ally Pally.
What happened yesterday was all down to David and his darts ability. He deserves everything that will come from the victory, and hopefully he can keep progressing in the tournament.
The PDC didn’t allow my logo, so the Choo Choo was a little Easter egg for my followers. I’m hoping to have another badge on his shirt for the next match so keep an eye out for that…
David is a maverick, he’s a great character, and I’m just buzzing to have played a tiny part in it.
