The Police(@SAPoliceService ) should serve and protect but here they are, stealing R7,000 from a young couple returning from a trip to get married. This is not right.

4. Officers told the 3rd person to move away so they could intimidate this couple undisturbed. 6 Police Officers took R7,000 from this young couple and left them so shaken the guy cried. This so unfair that @SAPoliceService have their officers doing this to innocent people.

3. A 3rd person travelling with the couple intervened and said lets go back to immigration because they have scanned the passport and everything is okay. The Police Officers refused and threatened the couple with arrest.

I love Science. Black people, we are not black. White/Pink people, you are not white/Pink. Yellow/Red people, you are not yellow/red The colour that we see is not what your colour is but the colour that your body rejects while absorbing all other colours of the spectrum.

4. cont. "You do this full time. I have never had such detailed drawings from a customer, let alone hand drawings. I have to call my customers to the office so we can work together and your drawing are as good as complete. What do l have to do now?". Change them to CAD, l said.

4. I sent hand drawings of my invention to a CAD technician(white British woman) who was a friend to a workmate while l was working at Amazon Coventry. She called me and asked, "What is your day job?". Told her, "Reliability and Maintenance Engineer". "No, you are lying to me".

3. At Amazon Coventry l was tasked with coming up with a bracket that would hold the Clocking Machines. I came up with a design that confused the HR managers who has asked engineering for the solution. My solution looked like it had come off the shelf from some reputable company.

2. TelOne(Zim) - One customer on one old system of party lines was refuting that calls where being originated from their phone but that our equipment was faulty. I came up with a design that detected when a call had been originated from the customer in question & we got an alert.

1. I have had a number of innovations that have been adopted in a number of organisations that l have worked for. Some colleagues have not been happy, especially the white ones who felt it should have been them and not me. It was too clear to see that they were unhappy.

Would you survive in a company where monthly all staff meetings are held and every employee pitch an idea to top management. Best idea/s are adopted and if financially successful, originator will have a stake in the returns.

Do you think the South African Business landscape is still prohibitive for some groups of people and still favours a certain group of people?

You want to get into the trucking or bus business, the Tax Disc fee can be upwards of R50,000 a year and can not be paid by monthly instalments. The Govt which has not helped you one bit while raising the capital, wants R50,000 plus in one payment. It is an uphill task.
