After my birthday, I sat down on our soakaway to really think about my life. No salary. No company. No car. No nothing.

Only to sell the thing wey no be my own I know.

Is this how I will enter 30 and be doing nonsense with my life? I've not even finished thinking when I saw landlord carrying AC, Fridge, Gen, Stabilizer to the backyard.

I shout yes! I have found work that will cure my depression. I carry phone.
