I found some good in a certain evil...

 

If you look to the brighter side, you'll find out that there's good in evil. (Photo credit: Pinterest)

I once wrote about the good in evil, and I wondered if it’s fair to have evil in good. I know my head was “turningoninown” the day I wrote that but I’ve found one good in a certain evil…

Remember there was nothing like “can I work from home” before the advent of Covid? The virus hit us hard and somehow, employers found ways to understand that there’s value in remote work, is that a viable example of good in evil?

I’m sure covid was evil, I experienced it when it had value and I can tell you for free that it’s nothing good but again, did it come to destroy a certain law that doesn’t exist in the constitution but somehow takes it course around the working environment?

Now, employers willfully ask employees to work from home, employers now play down the frowns when employees ask for sick leave and from experience, employees function better from their closet; no cranky face giving attitude over hellos and hi, win-win right?

I can understand why some employees would frown at the “work from home” policy tho. Some employees lack integrity and will definitely underperform without supervision, now I have to ask, why hire someone who needs everyone in the market square before he or she can deliver?

This is not to say I don’t know some people need mentoring and could use some guidance, how about “here’s what I’ve done, kindly peruse and advise” instead of “I’ve not done anything, I’m waiting for you to tell me what to do”?

Yh, I’m right, there’s so much good in evil if you decide to look at the brighter side of life. I am not asking you to go about glorifying failure like Manchester United fans who are celebrating 6th place finish just because Arsenal didn’t make UCL and Liverpool lost the champions league final. See y’all tomorrow.

If her name is Precious, you're single

People will leave you wondering if you're abnormal, omo iya mi, ma fo, na dem be the problem not you. Oya stay jiggy make we enter road. (Photo credit: Google)   “When you’re losing a tug of war to a tiger, release the rope before it gets to your arm; you can always get another rope, of course, except if you want prosthetics; you don’t want another arm.” - Ancient Chinese proverb remixed by Rambo. 2023 taught me a lot, and one of them is this: “If that person looks too good to be true, don’t force it; the person is certainly a fraud." And this rings true for everything. Whether living or non-living, don’t force it; it’s too good to be true. I was going to write about Precious, but I realized it’s a waste of time. Someone would text or call to tell me I’m pained, and it would get me emotional. I’d rather leave it as it is and sweep it under the rug like I always do. No worries on this one. Lesson number 1 from 2023: Tomorrow isn’t promised! See, a day before my mother passed

One careless night

The antelope is badly wounded right in front of the hunter, it can live again, only if the guardian angel smiles again... (Photo credit: Geo Wild) I randomly remember how my mom forced Mount Zion movies on me that year, but after the incident of the other day, one famous movie of those folks rings true in my head. One careless night. Just so we’re clear, no matter how hard you try, you’ll never understand this post; it’s a personal rant that will chronicle several events, and, while I am putting this in the public space, I still advise you to stop reading from this point. Omo! These are the days I prayed against, but it is what it is. I remember that beautiful Sunday. The indecision at first nearly ruined the script, but I saw the value of resilience. I remember the jokes about the green dress that looks like a 2-Sure promoter uniform. LOL, the aura was special though. It’s been a long time; something was off, and despite P.O. ringing in my ears, I still ran into the ditch. It was e

One hellish year and my one and half legs

This has been like a home recently but, the goal is to get stronger when it gets tougher. I'm fighting to win. (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) I remember promising Bukky (formerly the Peridot of BR, now the Peridot of UK) that I'd write a lot this month; it definitely won’t be every day like I did last year, but I’ll try, and here you go. To start with, it’s been a tough year by all standards. Not sure there’s ever a year in which I felt half as much physical pain as this year; 2019 had the inglorious award until 2023 pulled up, and here’s me hoping I’ll never have to see a more painful year than this one. The past three weeks have been the toughest. I spent more days with the physiotherapists than at work, but I am probably the strongest human I know. I am not giving up anytime soon, but the pains better ease up before I do something crazy. Yesterday was the International Day of People Living with Disabilities. It should be a public holiday, but while I wasn’t physicall
