Me: Why are you using these basic typefaces?
Student: I couldn't find any?
Me: How far did you look?
S: WDYM?
Me: Where did you look?
S: Adobe.
Me: No Google Fonts?
S: 😶
Me: You know you can download and install fonts.
S: 😶
Me: Both of you. Parking lot. Let's go.
Now no one knows what is happening and I am entertained before tell someone I'm unemployed and they put the phone down without a word.
I normally answer the phone saying "Meagan, hello". Ever since call centres decided that the phone rings AFTER you answer and then some automated shit happens, the call drops, or you hear a call centre in the background, I don't say shit. I just leave the line open.
Me: I was dancing on speakers when I was your age and you think I have the back and knees to stand? Move. Lemme sit.
Student: *GASP* Ma'am! Were you a groovist?
Me: My child, I ate my youth and not a single crumb was left. That's why I'm always tired.
Yeah, I've noticed but most of the grocery stores are still not very accommodating unless it's around Elsies. Also don't tell the people that Woolies' meat comes from Excellence. 👀
Literal bullshit. You can find ice cream with bacon in the northern suburbs.
But they were saying they must drive for don't know how many km's to find a Wimpy with bacon 🙄teapawt.net/CmNarion/status/211534…
Trees.
One falls from a tree the other is made out of a tree.
The only time my life isn't peaceful is when executive or regular management calls a meeting to tell me I need to add another administrative task to my plate that used to have entire departments dedicated to that thing. And when Speckles demands attention at 05h45.
I get everything I need from the people in my life and the ones I hold dearest do not ask anything more of me that I can't handle or commit to. I am not guilted, I know I'm loved, supported and validated. And most importantly, none of them require "good morning" messages.
My one colleague and I got divorced went through dating around the same time. He told me about a gf a few years back and I heard earlier this year that he got married. We stood chatting this morning about it and he asked if I've ventured into a relationship since. Quickest No!
CBD has so few options unless it's Bo Kaap. Northern suburbs has zero to no options. Table bay side, very few. We have northern suburbs koesisters and southern suburbs koesisters. They're NOT the same.
Muizenberg's Bridget has some stories for you.

Hoods in Cape Town have looked the same since 94 but the DA tells you that they have been running the city of Cape Town well…
Me: Because you guys don't understand a brief unless I read it, mos.
Student: Hawu!
Me: Don't think you're the only ones, I have this same problem with 2nd and 3rd years.
Student: 👀, but ma'am, it makes more sense when you go through it.
Me: HOW? I LITERALLY JUST READ IT ALOUD?
When I lived in town, it always took me longer to get from Oranjezicht to V&A if I drove through the city than it did anyone coming from literally anywhere else. If I went onto the N2, took the M5, got onto the N1 and drove to the V&A it wouldn't take as long.
