Good day to you all my tutors and learners here on Hive.



Every day is another day to wake up and be grateful for life and what it has offered us. Most times I love to see people show kindness to each other, and this should not be because of any return or payback, but solely out of humanity. Like they call it karma. It would move around somehow. You might not be the one to receive it but maybe your generations to come. So why not just keep doing and practice good instead of the other way?

In the beginning

I have been with my boss for several months now and it has been nearly a year since I started training. The training was slated to last for three months at maximum because there is not any big deal in it. It’s something easy to grab if one has focus and is ready to learn.

I kicked off and my first day at work was so cool. I felt at ease and I loved how I could relax and free my mind with all I had to do. Multitasking with my online activities and at the same time attending to my duties while training.

My boss once told me that I should enjoy my free time while it lasts. Because there shall come sometimes when I will work myself out and even feel like running away or maybe regret joining in the very first place. He might have thought I wouldn't get to complete my period there. But I never had the mindset of quitting along the line.

Two months into the training

The workload started to become heavier, my boss had no one except himself, all of his brothers who assisted him already went to school, and his parents were too old to get into all of those things. I felt I was one thing he could depend on. Not sure though. Not until I started.

The very first time we had to count and sport some catfish fingering took us two days back to back to work from morning till night. I was too tired and stressed. At some point, I felt like quitting. But I never did. I was on a countdown of a few days to the end of my training session.

8 months and counting

The training that was to last for 3 months turned around. I realized I still found myself attached to it and I had to help my boss with the workload on him. I knew he might feel my presence if I had to leave. Though I would someday, I should at least keep on rendering my service to him.

There are days when I would sort and count thousands of catfish fingerlings, wash the ponds, and also deliver them to customers. I knew it wouldn’t be something so easy for him to do alone. I did them with nothing in expectation and after everything, I rendered myself ready and available for service anytime he called upon me.

I felt we should make people feel loved as humans. Whatever we do shouldn’t be tagged down on some kind of return or expectation, even don’t expect appreciation. They should be the ones appreciating and being grateful out of their own will. Life goes on and we keep learning every day.

This is my response to the prompt for week 88 edition 1 on the hive learners community and the topic to be discussed is STANDING UP FOR OTHERS.
