If it sounds too good to be true,its not true

                                    

                                                                      

There are a lot of advertisements that are being put in the newspaper and the internet that promise people riches or a job and then it ends up with someone getting ripped off or even everyone getting ripped off.
There have been a streak of advertisements in the newspapers that small and even big companies like Spar Supermarket are putting that promise work training and then a job after being trained.
Looking at the job situation in Zimbabwe we see that there is more than 80% unemployment so i was tempted with this other Spar Supermarket offer i saw in the newspaper and i went to Spar and told them i was interested with the job and they said i had to pay $25 so that i can start training as a worker at one of their retail outlets and then i would be automatically employed after then.
They also told me i had to buy my own uniform and i had to use my own money as transport to go to work for the two weeks i would be working there.
When the day came for me to be employed they told me that i cannot be a permanent worker because there were not any job vacancies open yet and they would have to get back to me when there was an opening and it has been 11 months since i have waited for them to call me.
This means they used me as cheap labour and i even payed them $25 for that and i suffered a big loss because i bought uniforms for work and i used to use my own money for bus-fare  and also for lunch they had to have been providing.
I had no money to do all this and had to borrow from someone saying i would repay them when i get my first pay cheque and up to now i have not received any positive response about the job from Spar Supermarket and how am i supposed to repay the money i borrowed?
What has this world come to,is this the new hustle now?Are people now making money off people like that?Is business that bad in the retail industry that supermarkets are now looking for other means of gaining profit?

The New Church

I went to church on Sunday after a long time in search of spiritual uplifting and i came back feeling like a little bitch (excuse my french).

Seems like the gospel done changed and its no longer the same with the traditional way of pastors, preachers and evangilist's way of decoding and encoding the bible.
It seems as if the pulpit is now a podium of showing off and telling people what you have in life and what you are planning to do and most pastors blaber about what the good Lord is blessing them with and also that if the rest of the people want to be blessed they should also give to receive and to me that is being very selfish to give for you to receive but you should give because that is the right thing to do.
The testimonies are now like a new form of twitter or exhibition platform whereby people only talk about material things as blessings.
There is also an intresting fact i have also figured out lately and it is like being a leader of a church is the new hustle nowadays because pastors are now rich and also there are a lot of churches that are springing up all over the City and the leaders of these new churches call themselves either Apostle or Prophet (isn't that intresting?).
The word of the day is now all about prosperity and when a pastor is advertising about a crusade they put either money or a car on the background of the poster and no offense but it looks like a Little Wayne poster to me.
I am not saying that i know whats right but i'm just saying i know what's wrong and all this is wrong.

Soldiers A Liability,Prisoners Blood Suckers

Zimbabwe has a really big army that is on payroll and we don't even have a war or even a situation that threatens war.
We have standing army and a standing army is a professional permanent army and is composed of full time career soldiers and is not disbanded even during times of peace and we have been at peace for 32 years and it is better to have army reserves who are disbanded once the threat is over.
The reason why we do not need a standing army is because we do not need one and also the army is wasting a lot of money for the country with their payrolls,artillery and drills to name but a few.
We might make use of them since we are not at war by getting them to build buildings or do other developmental activities since they are already on payroll.
Can someone tell me the job description of Zimbabwean soldiers,what is it that they do when they go to work at 8:00 am till 4:00 pm?
There are also the prisons who are receiving money from the Government and they are not even doing anything to pay back for that money and to me it is the government that is wasting money.
I believe the prisons may be a source of cheap labour and when the government embarks on a project they should use that labour for the betterment of the country like what other countries are doing for example the USA.
There is  lot to be done in the country in-terms of development and we don't need heavy weight pulling us back but we need innovation and tactful planning.
We cannot let the army get easy money and we also can utilise the prisoners and not just expect them to  sit in the jails and using up the nation's money through them being allocated some from the budget.

Black On Blacker People Racism

Racism is still there and it is more alive than ever and i am not talking about white people being racist on black people but black people being racist on blacker people.
This is the ugly truth that might seem impossible to believe but it is very true and it happened and it is happening everyday without being even addressed or questioned because to others it seems normal.
The best example is that most of the adverts that are shown always have the light skinned people and never the darker ones and also even in films and all leading roles we never see the darker people.
The light skin also discriminate the darker people in a whole lot of ways like you always see a cool light skin crew a school campus and i always ask myself where the other darker skin brothers at,aren't they cool also?
Even when you are reading books you can see that the one who is portrayed as the handsome guy in the book is the light skin one.
Would people vote Obama in power if he was dark skinned?
The sad thing is also when people bleach their skin to look like the light skin they get dissed again and guess who disses them,the same light skin people that discriminated them at first for them to go and bleach their skin.
Look at Vybes Kartel who is being bombarded with dis tracks from Assassin who is a light skin brother and i think that is so wrong considering he is light skin and has never gone through what the dark skin are going through.
How can someone light-skin give a lecture to someone dark-skin about being proud of what you are,you are proud because you are light-skin and you are the reason for my problems (sometimes).

Take the Constitution to the people

A Constitution is a set of principles that govern a state /it is the supreme law of a country.
In Zimbabwe it has been found fit to make another Constitution because the one that is in action does not represent the people and for there to be elections next year the SADC has said we need a new constitution.
My argument is that the Draft Constitution is supposed to be accessible to everyone because it is made for everyone.
Looking at the money invested in the process of making a constitution we can see that a lot of tax money has been used and the money was hard earned by the people.
We can see that there are also  a lot of donors who are funding the program for it to be people driven such as the UNDP and USAID to name but a few and they are hoping that the process can be people driven and it has to be for the people and not for a few politicians who have their own agendas.
The people in Zimbabwe are getting incarcerated for breaking laws that they don't even know about and the police are also using that advantage to hustle people after arresting  them for breaking laws they don't know about or maybe even made up laws.
Someone might say you have to make an effort to look for the constitution but is it the way it is supposed to be,when the law is made for the people it has to be given to the people.
We are getting into a referendum next week and we are expected to vote yes or no but what are we voting yes for and what are we voting no for when we have not yet even seen the Draft Constitution and meditated upon it.
A Constitution is not made for a group of people but for the whole state and also other generations to come for example the Constitution of the USA was made in 1787 and it is the same one that is being used because the people who made the constitution where not selfish to only make laws that would only make their own lives easier and not putting others to come in consideration.

Bleaching Skin Justified

The late Michael Jackson and Vibes Kartel the most popular examples i would use  for people who opted for another skin tone.
Though they had already made so much success in the music industry they still found it neccessary to bleach their skin and people did not stop to ask why they did that,the media just bombarded them and were very hostile about the whole issue.
Michael Jackson's reason for plastic surgery was that he used to be abused by his father and other people saying that his nose was too big and his skin was too dark.
Vybes Kartel said that he bleached skin so his tatoo's could  show and he also gave an example of people who go bold and get a hairpiece if they have done anything wrong,for example Wayne Rooney the footballer never made any headline with his new hair.
People who are darker than others go through a lot of abuse in a community and the only way to get out of the situation is maybe to bleach and the light skin people attack them again because they do not relate to what they are going through.

Change is all i need

Change is all i need,i live for,i pray for,i hope for and i fight for. Change is always a need and necessity in any given community. The simple meaning of change is different from what it is or from what it would be if  left alone.

There are two types of change which are good and also bad change. I like change but i like my change to be  good,i hate bad change and sometimes when i get bad change i wish to return it back.

The thought of having change brings hope and optimism but the future holds the secret to the unfolding of events and it only knows what kind change you will get. Change makes life easier and am always looking for it and i want it now.I have a twenty dollar note and i cannot use it because no one else has change.

I want my change good and not those torn notes of change.I deserve good change because i worked so hard for it and i have waited so long for  it so its high time i get it damn-it.

All i will always look for is change and i demand good change.
