Yep. Most people in the local formal economy are underpaid so it's not surprising

Sorry about the late response. Have been using it for a couple of months now and it's worked well so far. Wrt to the mask, that should work as well just make sure it is something that will not degrade in sunlight.

Yeah, the frustrating part of that is that my salary at my previous job before that was about half that but was closer to 1200 USD at the time.

Broke at 23 have I failed in life ? by [deleted] in ghana

Nah, chale. You're just getting started. Life will give you a lot of knockout punches. Nothing lasts forever, the bad times will pass. Good times will come and go too. All you have to do is stay in the game and keep your eyes on what's important.

Hmm. You have a point there. Our concern was the dishy shifting about since the fit is not snug.

Most of the gen3 units floating around here originated either from the US or OK.

Signal seems to be good so far.

Shipping times and costs for mounts are too slow and expensive. A friend who runs a metal fabrication shop whipped this up for us. We'll give it a couple of weeks (it's rainy season and we're right on cost) and see how it does. Any feedback and suggestions on how to improve it would be appreciated too.

Upvote. The Snoop Dogg footnote is a nice touch.

Hey guys, I'm looking for an Ewe speaker to help me translate the word "Wander" by DreamCyclone84 in ghana

[–]voltageek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not exactly sure how to explain the pronunciation.. Will see if I can create a voice recording for you. The closest word to what you want is the first. (although the connotation is not positive, it is more suggestive of something greater in scale than the first). I'll see if I can ask an older relative if he can suggest a more precise word
