Well done Narniah! Ilaahay ha kuu barakeeyo maalkaaga iyo xoogaaga... Some tips from me that I wish I were given when I started my first job all those years ago: - Always be seen to be working hard when your manager is around. - Talk to eveyone (in terms of colleagues) and 'befriend' as many people as you can. It make syour job a lot easier. Also managers will be a lot less likely to mess with you if you are well-liked and are well-established. - Don't work for your job, don't stress or tire yourself out, make your job work for you. Go have those drink-breaks and tell them you were thirsty and needed a drink. Don't be afraid of your manager, instead befriend him/her. Also you wernt doing anything wrong - if you need a drink you need a drink. - Do as little as you can get away with. And take as long as you can to do that little that you do do. But don't make it too obvious or you will become known... - Don't sacrifice or let work negatively affect your education (which is your true future). Its not worth it in the long run. - If you have any difficult colleagues, and we all have those, deal with them ruthlessly. But on the other hand, don't make unneccesary enemies that will make your job more diifuclt than it needs to be. Turn those enemies into friends and assets ratrher than liabilities. - Trust no-one truly.... there are snakes everywhere. - Save a good portion of your newfound income. Budget and spend wisely,... don't squander it all. - Never ever be late. It is unsightly and bad for your rep/image. Always make sure you account for your travel time + an extra 30mins for any delays you may not have forseen. It is better to be early than to be late. Also if you are early you get to hear all the usefull information that is doing the rounds and become closer to the management. its a habit to get into and its good not just for work but for eveything else in life. - Learn how to do eveything and all the ins and outs of your job/department/position very quickly; not just the basics or what you can get away with. Make an effort to find thinggs out that might not be expected of you and to learn new things. You should set yourself the first month or two to learn eveything thoroughly, it will make your job the much easier and less stressful. You will become a crucial and indisposable player in your workplace very quickly. - Don't lick 4rse (managers), instead build relationships on mutual respect and familiarity. Managers (as I do) use and abuse weaklings. Establish very quickly that you don't take sh1t from no-one and are on the same level with them, despite hierarchy. - You will find you have reasonable and easy-going managers. Use them to get your way. - One last thing. You will come across some colleagues who try to get away with doing naff all. Tell them how it is and nip it in the bud VERY QUICKLY so that they know what you expect from them when they are working with you. Dont be a f4cking push-over oo Yaan lagugu shaqaysanin. Fariidii hooyadaa dhasay noqo lol. Well done Narniah! Ilaahay ha kuu barakeeyo maalkaaga iyo xoogaaga... all the best and enjoy. If you need any advice or help, im only a PM away.

Great pics.

AUN to the victims. Aint nothing else to say.

For all you know their family members are on these forums; and knowing that they chose/got caught up in that lifestyle, is not any less painfull or anguishing and certainly does not provide comfort to their families. Imagine if your brother or son got killed and what you are saying now, was said to you. But it is indeed very unfortunate and regrettable.

Waa ayaan darro'. It must be anguish for the parents.

I agree with you wholeheartedly. All the things you are saying now, ive said many times before.

The valley in which Hargeisa is situated:

That is a diplomatic mistake and a loss for the Kenyans.

The worst thing is that the perpetrators of these crimes, as well as the Garissa massacre are still freely walking around in Kenya today. It just proves that unfortunately that Kenya time and time again has chosen to be no friend to the Somali people, which is a mistake on their part.

yh, if "of the hook" means impoverished and underdeveloped.
