First of all I have to apologise to those who expected a religious article. I will indeed come up with that. What I am concerned with for now is the difference in the way things are done here. Last time, I promised to descibe an episode over breakfast.
In Kenya, at least where I operated, when a family eats breakfast and have to apply Blue Band (that is margarine - more of that later ), they use only one knife. So, here I am, with two other men over breakfast. We have 3 knives. I decided to wait for one of the others to finish with his, after whivh I wouldd use it. I was told to just use mine, as "this is America". I kept quiet and waited for Jimi to finish with his knife.
Correct me if I am wrong, but does it really make semse? One of the rarest commodities here is Time. Yet I felt we wold be wasting some in washing two extra kinives. It would also be a waste of water. Was I wrong?
