Fatima
Shit I am late for work again they gone fire my ass. Between school, work and meeting deadlines I am getting no rest.
I can't wait to be finished with school I wish I would have never taken a break I would be finished by now. But I know my hard work will pay off soon.
I had to get a part time job just to stay a float, the writing gigs have been a little slow and the bills were steady pilling up.
I hurried up and jumped in the shower and got myself together.
Zac
Damn my alarm didn't go off again lucky I am my own boss so I make my own schedule. I owned my own tech company that has been successful since I started it. I wanted to do something that would help black men, I hired felons and gave them a second chance at life. A lot of the felons just needed a second chance at life and I was happy my company could help them.
If I didn't have someone help me then I wouldn't be where I am today. That's why I made it my mission to help others and give them a 2nd chance.
I took a hot shower and got myself together.
The Coffee Shop
Zac
I decided to be a nice boss and get the guys coffee and donuts. I went to the best black owned place in Atlanta. This place stayed packed all the time but it was worth the wait. I was standing in line scrolling through this dating app I downloaded a while back.
I don't know why I still have it active I don't even be on it
