FOUR JOBS YOU'VE HAD IN YOUR LIFE
1.Bus boy in freshman year at college (in typical Naija fashion I quickly worked my way up to dishwasher, salads and finally front of house cook (there are still people in Nashville who will never recover from the steaks I cooked for them - no not poison, spicyyyyy)
2. Waterbed salesman -a legal way to get women to lie down and undulate for you (having been cautioned about you know the other way)
3. Kitchen salesman - had a great intro to the company as they sent us off to the deep Yorkshire dales for our induction course. Quickly found out that Naija man and deep Yorkshire dales is not a good combination. Don't think the locals were too impressed either.
4. Copier salesman - covering the East end of London. Wandered into a shop where the owner's copier had not worked for months. He was not happy about it and neither was his rottweiler (as a matter of fact got the distinct impression the dog was more unhappy about it than the owner. Something in its eyes.)
FOUR JOBS YOU WISH YOU HAD
1.President of Nigeria. - Six months to clear out all the old fogeys and cronies and then spend time polishing up the country to shine like the diamond it truly is.

hehe this is the funniest ive read
chelsea dont rule at all talk about ugly football, if u like pam and halle trust me u cant like chelski btw abrahmoiv's girlfirend on the side rules!!
Dami, dami,dami. Firstly thanks for the compliment. However saying chelsea play ugly football is like saying picasso painted some ugly women. I assume you support Man U, Arse or Lilly livered Liverpool? Or should I call them the also rans?
As for abrams young, fit, very fine,rich,hot bit on the side - i cannot possibly comment for legal reasons (Iyawo will kill me and will then be charged with murder yada yada)
Tut, tut, where have you been Toks, where have you been? This meme is sooooooooo last season, dahlink. I did it ages ago. :-D
Seriously though, I've done this one already and if you're really bored go here...

I too wish I had 'no job' (ie independent, not working for anyone, and with access to loads of money)! One day, one day...
I was almost fooled into thinking you had a thing for Pam and Halle. But for legal reasons (and Iyawo) - you don't. ;)
nkem - i'm sure its a mutual thing. If not for the restraining order and other various legal complexities I am sure we would be together as one (with Iyawo of course)
