Sometimes last year, there is need for journeymen to work on these two buildings. And a friend from Facebook that I haven’t even seen referred me to the person and I was called.
I joined the group of people working the projects.
After six days on the job, the head of cleaner that took the cleaning of one of the two buildings whom I’m sure had come about few days earlier, came around again and came to meet me where I was working and asked me which tribe I belonged to.
I told him that I’m a Yoruba man.
And then he said that, since he’d been in his field, Yoruba guys that is enduring on a job like that is rare.
He explained further that, some Yoruba men he’d met on site, after they worked for like two to three days, they’ll run away in order to go and spend the money they made.
And then after few days of staying broke, they start to look for work to do again, and repeated the same pattern.
But I didn’t. Having been there for the past few days and he’s sure that I’ll see the job through.
And indeed, I saw the job through.
Worked in both buildings simultaneously.
What he stated is true to a fault, though.
