I went for an interview recently for the post of an accountant. Normally, I have no business with this job because God knows I've hated mathematics and anything calculation since I was born.

But, based on Buhari economy, man has to survive. I needed the job desperately, and was ready to do anything to survive.

I bought textbooks from Divachums Hub and studied for 3 straight weeks. I equally bought cheap data from them to research online in preparation.

When I went into the office on the interview date, the interviewer was with his little daughter.

"Daddy, please do my assignment for me."

"You're here for the job? Please, come in. It's perfect timing. Do this assignment for my daughter. That's your interview. If she smashes it, you're hired."

Lo and behold, the assignment was on mathematics. 10 questions.

I was like, "Sir... I'm not really...I'm here for interview o, not exam."

"For the position of accountant, right. It's arithmetics. Just do the assignment and you're hired."

I went ahead to do the assignment. He told me to return the next day for the result.

"Mr. Sam, right?"

"Yes, Sir, that's me."

"Congratulations. You just succeeded in disgracing your generation. My daughter scored 0/10 in the assignment. Now they're inviting me to their school to explain my parenting skills."

"I told you I wasn't here to solve maths na. So, am I hired?"

"Before I close my eyes and open it, get out of my office or I will get you arrested."

Me: can you speak louder? I can't hear you.
