He left me to do my job without interference because he had confidence in my output. Like mukiha and aemathenge say,your employer will treat you the way you 'deserve' to be treated. If you don't act like a good employee,the employer will not treat you like one. Would it be interesting if people 'paid peanuts' were actually paid using peanuts,as in njugu? And where did that phrase come from? Immorality: The morality of those who are having a better time!

Peanuts are not cheap by any standards....we buy about 10 nuts on Uhuru highway for ten bob...that's a shilling per nut....actually more expensive than coffee or tea!!!! Check their prices in the supermarkets and see Behind the gardens...Behind the wall...Under the tree (Including: Red...Dark Blue...Yellow) Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.

I don't know,maybe the peanuts could also be the size and relevance ... the person who coined the saying must have been looking for something small which many people do not use ... thus came up with peanuts When we pray in praise to God,he makes a difference in our lives.

Most employees will never tell you how much they earn unless they think they make a lot,and what is a lot in Kenya?? Plus no employer will say how much they pay their employers since 'the wheels of capitalism are oiled by the blood of workers'-Simpsons. Interesting topic though. One thing is clear though,if you earn 200k Gross,you feel like you are someone in society,yet in Nairobi this is nothing to write home about. A good mortgage for a 'good' house will set you back 100k for 20 yrs 8m,but some prefer to pay high rent to look rich. A car will set you back 30k,education,shopping,entertainment,credit cards,chama (sacco)...and you realise you need a job netting 500k plus where my pals (doctors,lawyers) are. And someone thinks 2.5m is a lot. Thats why i started my own business where net profit means net.. Nairoberry-'The darker the berry the sweeter the juice'
