One expatriate driver Moha had a mild heart attack today at the Maskani. He was accosted by a black snake while sitting under the mango tree. It fell out of the tree. I guess snakes really do fly, don't they? And this one in particular that had a grown man screaming like a little girl and the rest of the men running for their lives and others running to get stones and logs so they can work on the serpent before it works on them. This isn't a safe work environment, one may think. But snakes are common in this place especially during the masika seasons. Talk of working in a village.
Now, Maskani is a place in the campsite parallel with the workshop and directly opposite the administration and engineering offices. It is where people go to unwind and 'catch up.' Light vehicle drivers kick their heels here as they wait for their bosses to sip coffee from their tiny cups and smoke cigarettes outside the administration office. Heavy trucks drivers on the other hand pass time here as they wait for their vehicles to be repaired or serviced. It is also a strategic place where the likes of Mama Sharif and other mama chakulas can be seen from afar, signaled and sell food over the fence. It is where all the umbea flows like Khaligraph Jones' lines.
Unfortunately for Moha, the day he had the attack, the maskani was packed. It had been raining the previous day so not so much was going on in the earthworks and structure sections outside. After it fell down on Moha's head, the men in unison managed to kill it. Here is a picture of what remained. Viewer discretion is advised.
You know the 'women will be the end of us' thing that men always say? Well, hallo. It was a braid guys 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👀😂😂😂!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
