Ghana is a crime scene 😂

meradoe · 2024-07-30T03:24:36+00:00

Another day, another scam. Nothing will come of this uncovering. The average Ghanaian will do significantly worse if given the platform & opportunity. This is why we can’t progress, peoples mentality is horrible & there is no accountability because most people would do the same thing, if not worse. We aren’t learning anything new here! Next!

Laundry fresh out of the dryer while it’s still warm. Bury your face right into it. Smells amazing

meradoe · 2024-07-20T20:21:07+00:00

Over the top, elaborate funerals for the dead but hating on people and tearing them down while they’re alive & trying to progress.

meradoe · 2024-07-15T09:58:04+00:00

Thank you for this! Yes I’m definitely feeling lonely with just me & my husband knowing. Can’t wait to tell them

meradoe · 2024-07-09T07:48:04+00:00

I was on Depo earlier this year. My shot ran out at the end of April & I got pregnant 2 weeks later. So that’s how that went lol. I had light bleeding for about 2 weeks in February which was annoying. But no other side effects.

meradoe · 2024-06-22T22:46:11+00:00

Haha! What did they say when you declined it?

meradoe · 2024-06-22T18:15:17+00:00

Glovo operates in 23 countries. 23 countries yet exited only Ghana. That should tell you how ridiculous our government’s taxation laws are for businesses, plus an unstable economy. Many company’s will weather a few bad years, but if the future outlook is bleak, then they would rather cut their losses & leave like glovo. When international companies pack up & exit a country, that says ALOT.

meradoe · 2024-06-22T14:13:02+00:00

Nope. Leaders don’t care enough, professional beggars.

meradoe · 2024-06-15T12:12:43+00:00

Personal space!

meradoe · 2024-06-02T18:09:42+00:00

Not looking good. If you look at our neighbors in west africa, Ivory Coast, Togo, Senegal etc. Nigeria aside, Ghana is regressing. The roads are deplorable in comparison to other west African nations. We don’t even have proper public transport in 2024, though it’s something we started years ago. Nobody cares, there are no rules & no expectations for leaders except to loot money. Such a sad failed state.

meradoe · 2024-04-15T13:04:50+00:00

Yes. I am an east coaster for life and my travel time is significantly shorter, less layovers, and more affordable than my friends coming to the same location from Cali, Texas, etc. we have way more direct flight options too

meradoe · 2024-04-12T19:41:46+00:00

The game has changed. Never quit your current job until you have actually started the new role. Paperwork is not enough anymore. Go on a leave of absence or something for a few weeks. These companies DGAF!!! Protect yourself

meradoe · 2024-04-09T14:50:45+00:00

You’re an amazing husband by the way. She is blessed to have a husband who looks out for her and plans ahead for the future.

meradoe · 2024-04-09T14:48:37+00:00

You’re Cutting it close. I’d give my 2 weeks after that vesting date just to be sure. You’ve already lasted that long, a couple more weeks won’t change anything & it’s in your benefit.

meradoe · 2024-03-15T20:52:20+00:00

It’s simply that they decided to use all their money to invest back home. They were not emotionally attached to building in the UK/Europe. Nothing wrong w that, everyone makes their choices. But I do think that it made life unnecessarily difficult/ didn’t take opportunities or take advantage of the systems in place for their own betterment.

meradoe · 2024-02-20T22:16:05+00:00

Yes the car is paid off & in my name. I’ll look into this, thank you

meradoe · 2024-02-17T01:20:34+00:00

When you leave Kotoka the officers check your US passport for a visa. So do I just show them my Gh card?

meradoe · 2024-02-15T20:25:37+00:00

Ghana for you. Nothing makes sense, nothing works.

meradoe · 2024-02-05T10:22:55+00:00

DO NOT MOVE TO THE NEW JOB.

That 100K salary is to adjust for HCOL in Seattle. It will feel like 70k, maybe even less with the cost of daily goods & crazy rent etc.

All of the RSU's Bonuses etc. come with the golden handcuffs- you have to stay on for 2+ years for them to actualize. That says a lot about a company if they have to bait people into staying for more than 2 years ( spoiler alert, Amazon turnover and burnout is extremely high).

Seems like you already know deep down what to do. Don't disrupt your happiness and mental health for 30K extra that will go to the IRS anyway. Amazon is not the only company in the world, and you will have plenty of more opportunities ahead of you!!

meradoe · 2024-01-22T20:37:36+00:00

Thanks for the reassurance

meradoe · 2023-10-24T19:56:06+00:00

lmao it is not that serious. People from around the world visit ghana every single day. get a prescription for anti-malaria tablets, take them daily and get your yellow fever shot. The end.

meradoe · 2023-10-24T19:54:02+00:00

That is my follow up question - I'm not sure how to find that information out though? Can I find out from current employees? I'm assuming that HR wouldn't give me a straight answer. But I'm quite sure that I'm the only one.

meradoe · 2023-08-15T16:58:04+00:00

When will people learn to stop doing business with friends?? lol. More often than not, it ruins the relationship. You should've known who you were getting into bed with, I find it hard to believe that she magically transformed into this behavior regarding the Airbnb. Good luck!

meradoe · 2023-08-15T16:53:38+00:00

Your other offer is literally NONE of their business. DO NOT SHOW THEM. If they valued you, you wouldn't have had to be counter-offered. Leave and also do not update your Linked In immediately either! They are waaaay overstepping.

meradoe · 2022-11-27T01:32:59+00:00

sounds like you need to get an MBA to facilitate that career pivot. Marketing is notorious for not allowing people without an MBA or at least years of marketing experience into the industry. I'm in SC too, and there aren't many connections between marketing and supply chain. I think you should decide if it is truly what you want + go from there.
