This last winter was Ursula evil! The worst evil waiting to happen this summer is the hype men that won’t shut the fuck up during the best parts of the song and the DJs skipping the song at the best part.

Hey guys, there’s something wrong with your app @UseLemfi
1. I am using faceID- when I open the app, don’t automatically sign me in using faceID, allow me choose to use it.

2. Endless loop and then something went wrong.

It took me 5 months and about 25 interviews to land my first job in Canada 🇨🇦

But there is one I will never forget.

I applied for a Canadian government role.

French was listed as a requirement. I applied anyway. Got through the first stage. No French was tested.

Second and final stage. I joined the call. Bonjour bonjour. (As how?)

I thought that was just the greeting.

The interviewer then calmly informed me that the entire interview would be conducted in French.

I could feel my intestines shift.

I said okay. A certified Duolingo dropout sitting in silence.

The first question came. 45 seconds of full Québécois French.

I waited for them to finish. Then I slowly asked if they could repeat the question in English.

They did. Politely.
I answered.
Then they asked if I had any questions for them.

That was it. Interview over.

I never got a rejection email. Not one. They were too pissed to even send it 😭

What is your craziest job interview moment in diaspora or back home?

And I’ll buy!

Peanut burger from Vietnam - $3.49
A cup of chin-chin fried in the US by a Nigerian - $8.

Any day the Chinese discovers that Nigerians love chin-chin, they will mass produce it and sell for $2.

I’m grateful for my primary and secondary education. Being able to speak and write well goes a long way in this part of the world.
