You can be many things today, I'll implore you to please #bekind. Everyone is going through their own battle, even the "annoying colleague". Behind the stand ups, framework, deadlines, we are all human.
Check up on your colleagues.

Sis @SavvyRinu , pls let's give this young woman grace. She's made an error which at organisational level is tough enough. She's now been put through the mill globally. I just want to hold space for her wellbeing. Your voice would be super helpful🙏🏽

I have been privileged to work across over 20 countries including the United States and UK as a Gen Z. In many rooms I have been in, I was the youngest person.
So I can tell you, the greatest skill you need in your corner is not your certificate, but the ability to work across cultures and systems.
The fact that the 76-year old CEO in my workplace 3 streets away from the White House asked me to call him by his first name Damon doesn’t mean I should come back to Nigeria and call Dr. Oby Ezekwesili by her first name.
It’s lack of social intelligence. When you are in Rome, you behave like a Roman. Adapt quickly or be left behind.

no matter how messy it gets, i’ll never stop rooting for lewis hamilton. there’s something defiant about a black man standing atop a struggling italian team that hasn’t won a championship in over a decade. somewhere, somehow, the universe has to grant him his glory.
I'm sorry, u considered this ill-thought & wrote it out here. If you knew anything about the place (Only fools & horses), you'ld know Nigerians did not create this "Slum". It's actually gentrified & still houses many amazing hubs of culture: Prince of Peckham, Flygerians inc
Replying to @UnkleAyo
I already know what to expect, so I’m not going there. It’s not because I dislike my tribe or language, it’s just that the place has turned into a rundown slum. If it had become one of England’s luxurious locations, I’d definitely want to live there.

I'm actively seeking for new opportunities as a Product Designer. If you're hiring, or have tips or advice, I'd truly appreciate it.

Dear @flyairpeace, why was outbound/inbound economy flights from LON to LOS without any entertainment system?
Before any financial commitment i need to know if Is this a temporary glitch? When can one expect a fix? This would be a nightmare travelling with young children.
Thx!

Another woman in Iran faces execution for defending human rights. Women's rights activist Sharifeh Mohammadi has been sentenced to death by the Revolutionary Court in a sham retrial solely for her peaceful activism. She has been subjected to torture and inhumane treatment and now faces the ultimate injustice. Please share her story.
Sir @LewisHamilton the Greatest!!!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
When you both start raising your children, let's discuss.
I agree boundaries are reqd, however boundaries differ in homes.
Lasting memory from my daughter visiting her "disciplined" cuz in Nigeria is "she called me stupid" - to my child, you might as well have swore at her.

I really get this. I call it the burden of intelligence & knowledge.
As with Brexit & Trump round 1 - I was astounded at how laid back some folks around me responded. And this time, I'm just holding on to my mental health.
These "masa masa" ppl eager to win the praise of the Colonial minds...with back handed praise...just embarrassing!
Didn't even realise he's perpetuating the stereotype immigrant hierarchy - nodding along and contributing to the dangerous tropes...eugh
Sir, here's a one woman standing ovation for this superbly articulated thread! 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The utter audacity & lack of critical thinking that gives some the high shoulder to ignore their privileges & deride those whose fight, blood & history paved the way...
QED.

And armed with such privileges it is easy to succumb to the seductive sounds and beguilingly exclusionary fanfare trumpet of model immigrant.
What we need to do is to mind our manners and say, Thank you!
