The Diary Game: A Tiring Working Day At The Seaside (20-11-2024)

in Steem Cameroon4 days ago

Hey Lovelies, I apologize for not being consistent with my diary in the past days. It's not intentional guys, the circumstance behind it, is beyond my control. I don't want to go into the details behind it because it will only get me enraged so let me rather dive into the details of how my day went.

I woke up quite early today so I can prepare for work. It's been two days I haven't been to work, not just me though , my coworkers too cos of the issue our bus developed the last time we went to work. We were told not to report at work until we are being asked to. So yesterday I got an sms that our bus has been fixed so we should report at the office today.

When I woke up, I quickly cleaned up and prepared to step out, then I noticed how rough my hair is cos I haven't been able to braid it in the past weeks because I'm not financially stable at the moment so I had a quick snap of it. I left the house without breakfast, I joined public transit and took a picture of myself in it and other passengers too.

When I got to the office, I went straight to our food spot where we do eat before stepping out to work, joined my coworker in eating. While we were eating, our driver came and we had to rush the food so we can leave early because the location we were sent today is quite far, about 2-3 hours drive from my office.

We boarded the bus and set out for work but our driver made a quick stop at the fuel station to have a refill and I also captured it as I didn't want to skip any details of today's diary.

After a long journey, we arrived at our destination, the place seemed unusual from what it's known for, very dry and less busy and I was kinda discouraged at first, thinking I won't make much sales but as God would have it, I did.I looked for a place to sit, while sitting there and watching the waves, a lady walked along selling buns and at this time, I was famished. I beckoned on her and she came, I bought one and had a bite but it wasn't so satisfying so I paid her off.

Towards evening, the fishermen returned from fishing and the area became busy. People trooped in to buy fish, crayfish and crabs from them. I would've loved to get some for myself but since I'm not financially buoyant at the moment, I just had to be contented with what I have at the moment. I took some pictures and continued with my work.

The process of drying this crayfish isn't easy at all. The little I saw today made me think I'm not the most hardworking person and they're jobs quite more stressful than mine. I saw where the crayfish is being packed to, washed and laid to get dry while they lit up fire under it.

At 6.00 prompt, I returned back to our bus so we could report back to the office, I got few things to snack on from a nearby grocery store. When I got back home, I took my bath and believe me I was so tired, the journey alone was as tiring as the job as it took us nearly 5 hours to get back to the office, after taking the snacks, i voted for few persons on steemit and i did not know how i slept off.
