Been rather busy wit work lately.
And i've been tryin to catch up wit sleep as well.
A particular Supervisor in charge of my station approached me last nyte.
She asked if i was pursuing my Degree at the moment.
Truth be told, i wanted to.
I wanted so much to further my studies beyond the Diploma dat i have.
I want an Advanced Dip and a Degree and i want so much to climb dat ladder and be so much more den juz a 'Staff Nurse.'
But tyme after tyme, i had no choice but to forgo my application.
First, it was the Haj issue within the family.
Settled, yes.
And den itz the whole lawyer issue.
Yes, i can jolly well start saving for my own studies ryte now.
But i honestly can't bring myself to be so selfish.
God noes if the uncle and his entire family have enuff to support themselves.
God noes if they could afford to pay for their grandson's school fees.
No doubt, they're not my immediate family members.
But u wouldn't want them to starve or live lyfe not having enuff if they're ur relatives ryte?
I mean, u'd help to lighten up their load as well ryte?
Anywayz, i told the Supervisor the truth.
Dat i dint apply for school.
And since the only reason for me working permanent nyte shifts was entirely to save up for school, she asked if it would be possible for me to go back to the normal 3 shifts.
I was stunned.
And yes, i told her i can't.
Her reply was rather rude, but i shan't reveal her words.
And den it dawned on me, dat the only criteria to entering the permanent nyte shifts is, STUDY!
You have to study IF u want to stay in permanent nyte.
Family issues, financial or not, isn't a factor for them to decide.
Selfish?
You tell me.
