So proud of my mother she is one of them in the middle of the back row. They were the engine of the nursing profession ❤️
These were the GOATs at Frere Hospital in the 70s when white uniform really meant absolute care💕
Under apartheid our parents were becoming nurses, teachers and skilled professionals in their 20s. By 25, many were buying homes, raising families and building their futures.
Today, we have 30- and 40-year-olds struggling to find jobs, afford homes and survive on a R350 grant.
We were promised a better life. Instead, too many are still waiting for the “better tomorrow.”
The question is simple: What happened to the future we were promised? 🇿🇦

There should be a law, that you can’t talk on speaker phone in a public place.
Massive shout out to “Becky” from Bidvest, for prompting this post, having just had a 20 minute call with her boss, on speaker phone, loudly, next to me in the Slow Lounge.
This is the reason aliens fly straight by the earth people!
