Yesterday l was coming from University of Bindura telling students to enroll for the CA journey just after their degrees in accounting,passed by TM Bindura and one lady a till operator saw the ICAZ (Institute of Chartered Accountants car) branded car.
She then started inquiring about the program and l quickly went to the car and got a flier for her while the ICAZ marketing officer Victor,was explaining to her about the route.
She then went on to say,will also tell my friends who l work with to look into this program,there are so many of us in here with degrees who are shop floor workers,till operators,
All these people never imagined one day,they will be using a whole degree to pack shelves,to vent on the street,to guard premises but the world requires someone who finds a way to keep pushing!
My prayer however is that you don’t lose sight of who you are and where your dreams are at. As much as you guard those premises you are still an engineer,don’t loose sight of that,your chance will come and when it does all the humble work you are doing will go a long way into making you a better leader!
Ohh yes to some it will never work but who are we if we give up!
I have a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering. I am 28. I currently work as a security guard in Qatar. Every morning I put on my uniform and think about the version of me that graduated thinking the world was waiting. Nobody tells you that sometimes the world is not waiting. You just have to keep showing up anyway.
