Let me tell you about this co-worker of mine. I will call her "Tiffany"!
When I started working at one of my jobs, I met this 28 year old lady. I did not like her at first because she seemed a 'racist'.

Ooops. . .time to gerrout of hia.
Time to go home.
To be continued.

Lol that was tiny for some1 who chats a lot

As a wuz sayin'. . .

This lady called 'Tiffany' is a 28-year old white female.
When I started working with her, she looked very unfriendly and made the most confusing facial expressions you could ever imagine.
You could not read her no matter how you tried.
The one thing I noticed at first was that she was pregnant so I attributed her moodiness to the pregnancy. Boy! She was crabby.
She had a whinny, squeaky little voice. Because she often had to go puke in the bathroom, she would always switch her assignment to avoid being locked up in "the unit". She also had to take frequent naps.

Boy, she was a gooood worker. Even with her 'I-don't-feel-too-good' state, she was the best of workers. Any woman who has been through that 'hyper-emesis gravidarum' of a thingy during pregnancy can identify with how miserable it is. It took me years to start eating Chinese food and yellow corn again. Lord have mercy! Sick as a dying dog! Intraveneous therapy and hyperalimentation. . .name it! I sure don't miss those days I tell ya. To whom it may concern please. Thank you very much.

Tiffany came from a single parent home. Her mother is all the way in Nevada with one of her numerous boyfriends. Tiffany left home at 16 and moved in with her boyfriend. . . A BLACK BOY!!! I thought she was a 'racist' huh? Shocker #1!

Tiffany put herself through school while living with her AA boyfriend who was also 16 when they started living together. I have never met her husband, but other co-workers swear he is 'blacker' than Djimon Hounsou from Benin Republic.


Tiffany graduated from both high school and college, then took in her 19 year-brother from a different father, while her mother parties away in Las Vegas Nevada with her current boyfriend. I don't know if Tiffany is in contact with her father.

Shocker #2! Tiffany just bought her brother a car and is putting him through school too with the support of her black boyfriend now her HUSBAND. They got married a few years ago after being together for over 10 years.   How often do you find that in any part of the world? I mean, marrying your high-school sweetheart?

Shocker #3. Tiffany got pregant by IVF paid off by her. She worked 6 days a week for over 1 year to make the payments for the IVF. She still works 2 full-time jobs with her pregnancy. She is is in her 6th month and doing great. She feels greaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!
I can't wait for her baby shower.
Who says you do not have another chance to make a first good impression?
I have come to love and respect this lady. She is such a fine-spirited human being.
Lessons learned? Never judge a book by it's cover.

She made the best out of what life offered her,as oppossed to a some of us who most probably,in the same circumstance would:
Not look beyond the present,stop making excuses and work towards a better tomorrow.
Go into pro.sti.tution or sold off into an early marriage.
Become very bitter with life,end up an old grumpy maid.

Btw,Tiffany's sucess story won't be complete without mention of a functioning society/govt.student loans,part time works etc are non- existent in this part of the world.

@Topic,dunno if it's determination,luck or both that made her pull through fine and smooth.Lucky her!

"I'm so happy! Everything they do, from smiling to crying, feels like a blessing," Martin says of his 1-year-old twins. "This has been the most spiritual moment in my life."

Tell me about it. You go boy!
