Good mid morning. In today's news, schools are set to open for exam classes only. Some next week, others end of Sept. Many govt &rural schools are still charging fees in ZWL. 3rd term fees are $10 gvt fee, levies range from ZWL200-800. That's US$0.12, levy US$2.5-$10🤨
Meanwhile pvt schools are charging from $450 - $4k. Parents from both are protesting. Gvt schools because there is no way PPE, sanitizers, operational costs, etc at $10 per child to last 3months? The pvt school parents feel ripped off. They would like at least a 30% discount...
Meanwhile the children are caught in the middle, they have to literally prepare for their first public &major exams in 3mnths. Yes online learning has been avail for many, but kids have struggled, others have had no access at all. They will write but....its 2020. Dont stress them

#TrueStory some1 said..."have you ever met some1 &disliked them instantly. Not that they have done/said anything offensive, they just have an aura that makes you hate them." I gave them a blank stare &they said "that's how I feel about you." Ini ah. Yayish. I dont even know them
I just kept quiet and carried on waiting in the queue. But then I kept thinking is there something about the way I'm dressed, or do I look weird. I mean who does that, from nowhere, unprovoked. Anyway, she decided to change queues, after I didn't respond. I'm still shocked.
In hindsight, all the clapbacks that I could have said come forward, but when you are so shocked, sometimes you freeze. Hours later I keep wondering if she was looking for a fight, if I really was looking hameno. Anyway I will never know. But it's just weird
1. Been trying to self isolate after Gogo's funeral. Let's just say as a mother and wife without a helper it can't, not a chance😔 my 2 little ones are huggers, they love to tell me nyaya and jokes. Been trying to teach them the elbow greeting / first bump...it ain't happening...
2. Every morning they make breakfast, but I still make lunch &supper &clean the house& I'm still the referee. So I challenged them. Said "pretend I'm not here for 2 days". I packed my snacks, kettle, steamer, juice etc. They fought a lot &played. 3pm they knocked "we're hungry"
3. "You're hungry but I'm not here remember. Ask your Dad". They said, he's also hungry. Ah..so I said "aiwa ka, make a plan, I'm self isolating." So Dad orders food. Anyway, long story short. After my failed simulation, if I were c19 positive, home recovery won't work.
We have people who believe that 1. Covid19 is just a flue & it's better if we all get it & be done with it 2. Covid19 is real, but it happens to others, it could never be them 3. Covid19 is real but we're all going to die anyway, so live it up
They see the numbers tho....
We have those that believe that 4. Covid19 is a huge masterplan to reduce the world's population and bring in the one world order 5. Covid19 is a precursor of worse things to come 6. Covid19 is part of the prophecies in Revelations
They are preparing for the after life...
Yesterday at the hospital, I overheard some1 say, many people are not dying from Covid, they are dying with Covid19. They already had complications like diabetes etc, but when they pass on their deaths are recorded as corona deaths. It wasnt my conversation so I couldn't ask....
Not. Everyone. Is. Meant. To. Be. An. Entreprenuer! and please Don't confuse it with Self Employment! The point is businesses must try to remunerate their employees fairly. Some people thrive as employees but are dismal as a business owners. Financial security motivates many..
There are employees that are living the life, have bought property, travel, education paid for &have money put aside for a rainy day, there are entrepreneurs who are struggling, because they were told it's the way to go, but it's not in them. To each their own. Ndapedza hangu😎
Ok handisati. I left formal employment yrs ago because I hate hate hate corporate politics, bureaucracy &never ending meetings. But I look at those that stayed &I have huge regrets. I'm a 🇿🇼entrepreneur &there is always a curve ball or a challenge, I'm tired. I want a job now😪
