Jobless

Having been fired before my heart breaks for the below workers fired this year; the pain of a family losing an income is horrific. Food becames embarrassingly difficult to find, you most likely won’t manage to pay school fees and lose your home… imagine the pain and horror of the father that they now can’t provide for their children.
