Untalented- Adjustment Contest 2:My Life Before And After Steemit
Dear @surpassinggoogle
In The Begining:
I worked as a call center supervisor for 5 years with a telecommunications company here in lagos Nigeria,Life was rossy then,I could buy whatever I wanted and I had plans to settle down with my heart throb.
We have been dating for over two years,On buy by list was my intention to purchase aToyota Camry(pencil light).I was also trying to secure a job for my hearththrob too.We often go out in nice places,and we go swimming during weekends.So what more can a man ask for.And then the unthinkable happened.
THE PURPOSE:
It was 12:35pm on a hot sunny day , and I was scheduled for afternoon shift .The manager came and called a list of names and I my name was inclusive.
we where each called in to his office were he had a one on one chat with us,
I was the second on the list and the first lady came out crying ,and was inconsolable.
I picked the courage and entered the manager's office.
in his words "Mr Frank how has been your day? please kindly fill this form , we are sorry we have to let you go as the company no longer require your services,as you are aware this recent government administration has tough economic policies and it has affected our revenue, it has dropped geometeicaly so we need to cut down on staff strength"
My heart skipped a beat.I went to a bar on my way home, and I try to think of the next line of action.I called some of my friends to inform them, the next was my fiancee,so I waited untill she came for a visit I broke the news to her on a cold satureday,and she was shocked.
LIFE WITHOUT A JOB
THE PLAN:
Trust me it wasn't easy,Bill had to be paid.
I had just lost my job on a telecommunications company due to the strict economic policies by this current administration here in Nigeria,and I decided to visit an old friend.On my way to his house I saw so things I wished. I had enough cash to buy,it was disheartening,The realities of life had started to set in.Oh did I tell you that my friends started getting fewer by the day? or that my fiancee finally got a job and she rarely come to visit? Oh yes I got a text from her few months latter that she has moved on.
