End Month and The Kenyan Fascination Around It



On the 29th day of every month of a work calendar the employees in an office set up always seem to have a permanent smile as if the edges of their mouths were tapped to their ears.

When one opts to take entertainment as a career, the cream of the matter is to have fun and at the same time make others have fun. From the now all famous phrase ‘you should not get high on your own supply”, an entertainer for instance a deejay or a musician cannot play or compose songs that he likes but what gets the crowd going or rather a comedian cannot crack and laugh at his own jokes, it sounds absurd.
