i spent nearly 20 years working in central africa......there is one saying that is true today and that is
"you give something to an African and he will do the following....."if he cant eat he will break it if he cant break it he will feck it...and if he cant feck it he will lose it"
i was in engineering..(civil and mech')..........its the only place where my employees broke 2 anvils....now go figure
