-a staff member fearfully telling me that another staff member with heavy political connections is out of control in the office and can't be stopped...what am I, a hitman?
-spending all day rewriting other people's donor money reports so that they at least partially make sense. If I am responsible for spelling and grammar in Africa, this continent is doomed.
-and the finale:
Why are the swahili words for understand elewa and to be drunk lewa so similiar?! I meant to tell the manager 'I am relaxed because I understand' not 'I am relaxed because I am drunk'...I wondered why everyone went deathly silent...
time for a beer. not at work.
(no, I didn't dress in drag for work today but I might as well have..)
