Why You Should Probably Dump Her

In my audacious opinion, too many good guys are fighting losing battles with not-so-good girls when they could be replacing them with much better ones.
I was heartbroken when I realised that I have been so wrapped in the millions of issues that women have, that I have been neglecting the five or six issues that guys have (we envy you!) Shame on me! I was so distraught that I couldn’t wait to make it right.
Have you ever observed a relationship and could count 40 reasons why that nice fellow should dump that useless girl? Have you realised that everybody could count the same reasons as you except the poor fellow? Haven’t we all seen those relationships every day of our lives and although it’s none of our business of course and we would never interfere…

Being Diplomatic is Such a Chore!

This is completely unplanned but I feel I should say that professionals in a work place should take advantage of their right to a comfortable working environment.

Sexual harassment and misconduct is a real and punishable thing. Some people might be concerned that they let it go on for so long that it’s no longer punishable but it is. In fact if at any point the behaviour of any person in your workplace makes you uncomfortable, you should never think twice about putting a stop to it.

Carpe Diem

I have learned never to say neverfor more than one reason. Life is way too unpredictable for me to be so rigid. New plan? Carpe Diem.*

I know some of you will jump at the opportunity to say, “Huh? I know some things I’ll never do...”

Now, now Reader, don’t have a fit. I’m only saying why I would never say it. A guy let on to me one time why he would never say never and I thought it made perfect sense. Before that I was like you—saying that I knew for sure a few things that I would never do. For the sake of discretion, I’ll not list any of the things to which I’m referring.

When I was younger and up until thirteen years ago I had my life all figured out. I knew what I was going to do and where exactly I would be in life by X age. I’ve been forced to revisit that so many times that I just decided to throw the script away. New plan: one day at a time.

What I Learned From a Hustler

HustlerIn my audacious opinion, this financial society was not created for my success. Don’t be naïve, if you’re like me, it wasn’t created for yours either. I am under 40 and I still live at home, not because I haven’t been dreaming of moving since I was 19 but because I haven’t been able to get a leg up! If you’re anything like me, you are young, ambitious and bursting with big dreams for your life. If you’re anything like me, your life has yet to start and it’s almost maddening.

West Indian Daddyship

In my audacious opinion, West Indian fathers need an intervention. Obviously, reader, I don’t know all Caribbean fathers so before you go spouting off at the mouth, if I don’t know you, I cannot be referring to you, can I? I am writing about what I know. I know my father, quite well, in fact, I know him better than he realises. Maybe if he paid more attention to me personally, he would realise how similar we are. I can almost read him like a page. A lot of fathers seem to think that their children are just children, they are more observant than you think.. I have observed a few things about West Indian fathers; enough to compile this list:
