Can you imagine?!
Even a security personnel at the bank wants you to tip him out for helping you out at the ATM.

A Tale.
Sometime last week, my ATM card got stuck in the machine and I couldn't retrieve it. I needed to withdraw, so I had to utilize cardless transaction means, at the ATM, to get cash. The charge was N50.
Some days ago, someone transfered some money to me, so I went to bank again to withdraw. Since I had no debit card, I was thinking of cardless withdrawal. Then noticed that I could use fingerprint method to avoid unnecessary charge, as I had tried it before...
but the machine didn't detect my fingerprint. So, I called the security man around for help. I tried it in his presence about three time until the machine finally detect my fingerprint.
I thanked the security man and was about to leave. Could you believe that the man was expecting me to tip him off for standing beside me when I was making the transaction? Seriously?!
I had no money on me before I made the transaction. He didn't even know what I planned to use the money for. Just the idea that he told me to keep trying till it worked and it's my account made him expect a tip.
I just smiled. "Thank you. I'll probably see you another time," I said.

Pause.

OWO CHRONICLES: I

Let me tell you a short story.

When I was in 300L, I vied for my faculty presidency. I had an encounter with some 200L kids, Gabby and Berry, from History and Diplomatic Studies (HDS) Department, OOU.
They were supporting my opponent who was also from HDS. The kids were quite insolent! They would intentionally insult me in order to arouse my anger. They did it everytime I campaigned online.
I knew they were trying to play with my emotions. My supporters adviced me to ignore them, but the insults kept coming in from different angles.

(Tuesday 22/09/2020)

When I first posted that I went to Edo, some of my relatives and close friends couldn't believe. Some were asking if I didn't go to work while some asked how I managed to reach Edo and come...
...back the same day. Well, I actually visited Umaza community at Iguobazuwa area, Ovia Southwest, Edo State. And I shall narrate.
My friends would recall that I did my NYSC service in Edo . My Place of Primary Assignment (PPA) was Umaza Secondary School.

I DON'T HAVE TO WORRY
#PoeticVast by #WasiuOwolabi #Owogrand

I leave everything to the Almighty,
For He will take care of them.
He sees, hears and knows me.
So, I don't have to worry.
Don't stress yourself asking me
Why I haven't done this or that.
Ask the ONE who takes care of everything.
He will do everything.
So, I don't have to worry.
In that position you think I should have been,
I also wish for it.
Yet, there is the ONE who can make it happen.
So, I don't have to worry.

If you're reading this, then you're my contact list; and I have an interesting opportunity for those who believe we can achieve something together.
👇
My study so far on progression and growth have posited that a man cannot grow alone. You succeed by helping others to succeed. It's even highly possible if there's mutual agreement.
The agreement will also last as long as both parties keep to the terms of agreement.
Someone once told me that if you intend to deal with someone, you should be able to believe in the person. That's only when you can both achieve...

THE INCENTIVE
#PoeticVast

Just a statement from him eight years ago,
And a new horizon became a focus to go.

👇 [Thread] Al-Ustādh Isḥāq Rāji
My incentive became more rigorous.
My strive became more vigorous.
The nobles met along the way
And the speaker is paving the way.

Love and happiness don't translate to wealth in marriage. Ṣóo ti gbọ́?

| #OWO_Tales
After marriage, I'll give more love. My wife and I will work things out to make sure we have a happy home.
But if there's no wealth, forget—love will reduce. Iyawo will need money, so she'll find alternative means to get money even of it means adultry.
