About 10 years ago, I was a volunteer editor for a Ugandan tabloid. One time, one of the owners of the tabloid texted me. “Leah, I sent you 28 stories to post for tomorrow. Do it as soon as you wake up”.
Now, I am looking at this guy. “What is the Magic Word?”
ROGER: Magic word is EDIT.
I edited the stories and posted them.
LEAH: Done.
ROGER: Okay
LEAH: Magic word please!!
ROGER: I said OK.
I then deleted all the 28 stories and emptied trash.
He then calls me hissing. “What did you just do Leah?”
Can you imagine a University graduate can’t say PLEASE or THANK YOU?
I am not SORRY about sharing this story. People, learn to say PLEASE and THANK YOU. It will take you places. I sweya!!
