SA is hurtling towards @Our_DA ’s doomsday scenario. Tens of thousands of young Mzanzians flock to join Malema in #EFF10Anniversary to sing about killing a certain ethnic group. The EFF have dominated Uni elections (esp outside the Cape), without CI these are our future leaders ⚠️

If there is one thing I have learned over the last few years of ‘doing my own thing’, it is that there is no shortage of people who will encourage you to give up and ‘get a job’. Entrepreneurship is hard. No matter how many people tell you to give up, never listen to them.

Call centres, SARS in particular, always say that they are 'currently experiencing very high call volumes'. However, they say this every, single, day. So, the truth here is that the call volumes are not higher than usual, but rather that they are understaffed.
