House, I have a little story to narrate, it's kinda funny and long.

On Friday night I was at Badore with a friend, when I left his place I decided to go online with the hope of closing by 11:30.
Few meter from his estate I got a request from one nasty lady.

Rider: oga where are you?
Me: good evening, please kindly check your app you'll see my exact location.
Rider: oh, please don't give me that app location shit, where are you?
Me: good evening, I'm few meters away from your house.
Rider: what if I don't answer your greeting what will happen? Please I requested for a ride not greetings come quick I'm late.
Me: I'm here by your gate

She came out of the gate, entered the back seat, I didn't bother looking at her, the next she said was their usual, you can start the trip Mr. Greetings, I responded "thanks ma"

I started the trip, destination was DMATEL hotel, Lekki.
When we get there she called her guy to come and pay, the young man came out, this is where the drama begins.

Rider: baby I'm here (she wave thro the window), then jump out of the car, gave him a tight hug.
Boyfriend: oga, collect this for your new year (2k)
Me: still on my seat, collected the money and I recognize him (my trainee)
Rider: ingrate, you can't even thank me
Me: I called the guy by name (Collins), I stepped out of the car

The atmosphere changed
Collins: who are you, you know me? (He came closer)
Me: Remove my hat, shake his hands, he melt
Collins: sir, you do Uber?
Me: I held his hand and walk towards the lady, (she was already at the reception)
Rider: baby any problem? Where did you know him?
Collins: Stella are you blind, look at him very well
Rider: Jesus! She knelt down

Collins is the latest in my team, joined September, a trainee, he reports directly to me (we are together now preparing to go offshore), while the nasty Stella is a trainee in my unit as well, she works with my departmental store manager.

Me: Collins so na you dey light this hot and nasty oven?
Collins: sir this's our first date, I came into town today to resume on Monday
Me: you owe me no explanation nor apology, just be careful else you'll loose your job, all eyes on her big booty.
Stella: sir please I'm sorry I wasn't on my right mindset
Me: Stella, every driver you see out there are humans like you, they deserve to be treated with love, care and respect. It's the unpredictability of life that put them out there, some had or have better jobs than you, some have families, wifes, daughters like you, sisters like you, some are more educated than you.

Those young men out there risk their lives, abandoned their families, friends and love ones, they risk their cars, those that doesn't have it go as far as leasing it just to keep life going, they risk their time, and resources just to get you to your destination safely and yet you treat them like trash Stella because your think you're doing them a favor. Because You think you're somebody and they're nobody, because you think you've arrived, Stella I'm disappointed in you. I have many military boys as friends doing Uber, what if it was one of them you did this to?

God is the breath of life in you, you sin, you offend him every moment of your existence, has He ever treated you that way? Why are you so wicked Stella. Why are you doing this to yourself? Don't you know when you deliberately cause pains to others greater pains await you? Stella Can I surprise you? You failed all your tests when you came for interview my boss dropped you but I begged him to accept you, God positioned me there for you, though I knew you from nowhere, I saw you as my little sister, I wouldn't want you to go out there selling yourself. Everyone rejected you including your supposed seismic unit leader. I have to beg the store manager to accept you with hope of transferring you to the seismic unit when the oldest intend is gone. Stella you break my heart this night, it shouldn't be you. What if I intended marrying you or your suitor meet me to find out few things about you, what will you think I will tell him about you?

I've never seen the kind of brokenness I saw in that lady that night, she cried her soul out, she begged me and vowed never to maltreat anyone.
I held her, lift her up, hugged her, hugged Collins then departed from them. I spoke with Collins yesterday he said that the lady cried and weep till day break, she neither eat nor drink.

Today we had our first operations meeting for the year, then after the meeting we had our first management meeting as well.
Last night I spoke with some of my guys to help me vote Stella to seismic unit. I beg the store manager to make the move. So during departmental reports the store manager nominates her for seismic and the seismic team lead opposed the nomination (as I instructed him) though he didn't know that I have already campaigned for others to vote, and the only way it can resort to voting is when the proposed team lead oppos the move.

My boss said we should vote, we did and Stella won.

We sent for her, immediately she entered the exco-chamber her soul left her as she didn't know why she was invited (this was her first time in the chamber).
I stood up.... Called her by her name..

Stella, uuhh, the management have decided to .......... to drop you from ........from the store effective now, your service is no longer required .............. required there. Handover everything concerning the store to the store manager. I paused while staring at her for like 30 seconds, then I proceeded.
Then in addition, we are glad to inform you that you've been redeployed to the seismic department, from tomorrow you're resuming there, go home and prepare to resume tomorrow. ( I said these stammering and dragging the words).

To my greatest surprise this lady stood there, within a blink Stella collapse, there was confusion in the room. Safety and medics entered with a stretcher and take her to our clinic downstairs.

After the meeting my boss asked me to carry his laptop and follow him, when I get to his office he asked me what is the problem between me and Stella, I told him I don't have any problem with her, I narrated the whole incidence to my boss, he was surprise. The only thing he said was "forgive her John" I told him that I forgive people even before they offend me.

I visited her in the medics, she was fine. She asked me which church I attend, I told her it's not by church but the fear of God in you and your respect and love for humanity.
She came to my office spend the whole day with me, we drove home together with Collins , now both of them are in my place.

5 of my colleagues are ready to join Uber, 3 have already ordered for 2010 Civic as I recommended, expecting delivery this evening. They've registered online, took the test, waiting for their result.


what I experience about life is; what others does to you doesn't count, it's your reaction that determines your reward.

Mjosh1000:

No sir its not.
It has been checked I even buy another one self, the shri shri sound starts whenever the Ac is on and acceleration is slow like accelerating in traffic

AngryIgboMan:

While the presumed nice ones are still washing the pants of Pucohoontas maybe never to see the honey pot in this life or the next?

Is anybody thinking what am thinking?

"Former Uber driver who works with Shell now wants to steal my babe. Should I move on? Advise please"

They just paid. Check your account.

08031528120, Mr Nureni, he is Surulere. He is very good.

Babadee1900:
Is the sound coming from the Cabin or Engine Area, could be your evaporator going home if the sound is from the Cabin.

Take it to a competent AC technician and have the car checked, may you not experience AC problem in this hustle.

Mjosh1000:

No sir its not.
It has been checked I even buy another one self, the shri shri sound starts whenever the Ac is on and acceleration is slow like accelerating in traffic

Mjosh1000:

Change complete hub, changing bearings won't last

InfinityEstates:


Buy the original new one. Its about 7K or thereabouts. That one lasts. The 3K own is the one that doesn't last. If you have money though, change the hub.

izzou:

Just be careful sha. So you dont spend twice
