The first money I worked for while growing up

Good evening and happy new year my lovely community, am happy attending today's topic though still in the hospital, I had a serious home accident hoping to be discharged soon,

Nothing is compared to the money you worked for, it gives extra joy, confident and also open doors for higher opportunities.

Growing up with my Aunty during secondary school days was a good experience because I was taking care of each time I was going to school they have to give me transport fare and other things I asked for but most times not complete and of course I have to manage because then I was still better than most people staying with their parents so that's was where I got my courage then.

Not until a stage after my secondary school my wants began to increase especially as a woman and the feeling of getting my own pocket money sets in and God being so kind my Aunt's younger sister visited one of the days and asked me if I will like to work in the local government and immediately I accepted the offer since I can be working and schooling but it has to be after my confirmation in the office, in a space of two years

I submitted their requirements and within a short time appointment letter was given to me to start work then the next month salary was paid to me, wow! Just like play, infact I was like them that dream 🤣 and that was one of the happiest day of my life though the money was not big but it was enough considering the economy of the time

I used part of my first salary to buy gift for my Aunt's younger sister who got the job for me, brought out my transport fare for the next month and the rest was for myself infact first salary was about buy, buy, buy very interesting, my savings started with my next salary and I was able to save for my high school, this made me proud and people began to call me working class

Working to make your own money is a sweet thing that gives joy, confident and respect, so I have nothing to regret about the job till today am enjoying it in full
