Since the fire incident at hostel B that triggered massive opprobrium from the housekeepers, there has been a whiff of ostentatious ridicule elicited by casual workers of Acacia hostels. Statements like ‘ma-lawyer wako chonjo, si kama hawa’, ‘lawyers wanaelewa sheria’ among other discrediting utterances whilst running their daily errands have become an ear-splitting tune to our ears.
Yelping that lawyers understand law is as obvious as stating that layers know how to lay. There is a discernible logic behind people specialising in different purviews of academics and this should not be applied as a basis to loathe anyone in a dissimilar field. All the departments in the faculty of Human Resource Development are arguably of equal value with those of law school, both to the individuals and the nation. It is frantically improbable to have the whole world as lawyers.
Accidents are components of humanity and are inevitable. Throwing tantrums at your neighbour can never extinguish the blazing fire in your abode just as launching an attack or hatred will not reimburse you the loss. So don’t go pouncing on trifling mistakes as if they are the gravest ordeals to happen on planet earth.
Just so you know when the main switch went ablaze on Thursday afternoon, a female student helped out in fixing the smouldered wires. I reckon you’re grappling with the question of the course she partakes; she is a journalism student and doesn’t take electrical engineering on the side! Sounds incredible, doesn’t it? This is just to showcase the need to crash your blatant stereotypical mentalities and embrace an ad hoc approach to accidents and other uncertainties!
Bear in mind that human is to blunder. As cliché as it may sound, it still holds a niche in the English language.
