Just Love the Bus

My love for public transport is undying
Because that us where you get first-hand life drama. not the re-enacted version we see on tv
there is no remix to these type of experience and drama...there is no dull moment. Last Friday was on crazy boring day for me, left the office quite late as i intended to hang out with friends later...

Got on a bus to Obalende from the Idowu taylor end of adola odeku and I just laughed all through my journey to obalende...the driver and his conductor where just provoking. I actually thought the driver would have an heart attack, omo na small remain. Trouble started when we all refused to pay 70, na so the guy start to dey shout and told us to all get down...we refused and he started going thing we were going to pay 70 naira. The people paid 50 naira and na so wahala start oh...He parked at the next bus-stop and told us all to get down...even one was like he has to return us to the place he picked us from. One guy actually asked his reason for increasing the fare and and he said that is not our business as he ask the guy how much he dey collect.

There was this particular lady who was really vocal and that was how he faced the woman oh...saying he was going to deal with her, especially her...all the men dey talk he no follow them yan, but for the woman he open him 36...he actually attempted to drag the woman from the bus...omo this wahala no be small and nobody gree come down. I was just too tired to start looking for another bus. The driver just chanelled all his anger on the woman like say na she cause the whole kasala...He guy provoke sote, dey spit for people body with his noise...We all sha pitied him and agreed to pay the 70naira.

Round two
The Lady and the Conductor
after the first casala was settled, it was time to pay money, the lady sure does love trouble. She refused to give the conductor money saying he would give her change before he collects his money...na so conductor too start to dey provoke oh...this was even the worse as he threatened to beat up the woman....

My own laughing gas just dey leak...I don't know what the lady did to them, but she was the one who beared the wrath of these two angry men...When the men are talking, they would not reply but if the lady mention just a word, they would poubce on her...that is seriously not fairand gender inequality...the whole situation was just too funny to me to even utter a word...I just cannot give this cinema up any time soon, it is free and shown to all....

FIRST DAY AT WORK

Today is my first day at work.
Today is a special and unforgettable day to me.
Today is the 13th year rememberance of my grandma-"Iya-Ijeju"
The woman who taught me to love
The woman who nurtured and took care of me.
13 years ago around 8pm, she passed away.
May Almighty Allah forgive her sins and grant her eternal peace-Amen.
This is not my first job perse.

In the last 6 weeks I was working as a sales rep for an insurance company. With that job I realized you have got to have passion for a job for you to be able to deliver. I really never had a passion for marketing perse...I have always avoiding this profession like a plaque. I was really bored at home, so I took the job and I just could not deliver.

My new office is on the Island-VI to be precise. Now I join the thousands of people who face the terrible traffic jam of the island who has to leave the house at odd hours just to beat the traffic and get to work early.

For my 1st day, I am two hours late. Left the house for 6.30am and did not get to the island till 10. The traffic was just crazy. I am given grace today because it's my 1st day. Will move to my aunts from today. That is still very much shorter and I can still get to beat the traffic.

I would be working on a conference generally the planning and implementation of a conference which is scheduled to hold in september. I guess all CC positions in aiesec is paying off.

My first day so far has not been bad...just got back from a meeting with the company's potential media partners and I would say am loving it for now.

For how long I don't know......................
