All in the line of duty...

A job is a responsibility (to humanity) which must be met with a stiff upper lip and a stiff back!
It isn't done because you're so in love with your job description or position or that you find it exciting or challenging. It just pays the bills and that is the gospel truth!

In my country (for those of you who don't know - I'm referring to Nigeria: termed as the land flowing with milk and honey. In truth, this country of mine that I love to hate - is flowing alright but it's more along the lines of vinegar and blood)

I would honestly prefer to be my own boss and actually do something that inspires me, challenges and puts me in control of my fate (to a fair degree). I still believe this vision and I know for a fact that Nigeria has vast oppurtunities that can be tapped and utilized for profit.

Commerce based ventures (E-commerce), Marketing initiatives via the web, Portals that cater to different needs (betting, sports, information, sales & purchaces). Recent innovation in telecommunications, Online payment systems and a host of other developments point to a drift in the right direction.

What can I say? Hope is the name of the game and in my perverted opinion, it's better to be an instigator than to be a passive bystander - a drifter in the scheme of things.

Just wanted to say a few words and decongest my overfilled mind - doctor's orders!
