Kubukeka sengathi, esikhathini esifushane, izinqumo ezithathwe ngabesilisa nabesifazane abasebenza eWhite House zenziwe zivuna ibhizinisi. Umnqumi Omkhulu ucabanga ukuthi ngokukhuthaza (ukugwazisa) amabhizinisi ukuthi avule, abantu bazoshiya ukuphepha kwemizi yabo, bagijimele ukuyothenga esitolo esiseduze ukuze bathenge - ini?
Sibonga iDecider-in-Chief, sifunde ukuphila ngokuncane. Asizidingi izandiso zezinwele nezinzipho zomgunyathi uma uhambo lokuya emsebenzini lusuka ekamelweni luya endlini yokugezela luye ekhishini nasendlini yokuphumula. Asiwadingi amakha abaklami, izimonyo zesiFulentshi, izinkophe zamanga, amasudi abaklami, nobucwebe lapho yibona kuphela abantu esibabonayo nesixoxa nomndeni wethu (noma ngokwethu).
Ngaphambi kokuthi i-Decider-in -Chief iphuthelwe yithuba lokugcina i-COVID 19 kude nolwandle yanquma ukuyiyeka ikhukhule e-USA njengamagagasi amakhulu. Ngaphambi kokuthi i-Decider-in-Chief ivale iMelika, empeleni ngijabulele ukuhambahamba ezitolo ezinkulu, ngifuna isitsha esisha nesimnandi sesidlo sakusihlwa. Ngibheke ngabomvu ukuhambela imicimbi yewayini ukuze ngithole iwayini elisha, eligqamile, elimangalisayo elizokhishwa eCalifornia, New York, Kosovo, France, Italy, nezinye izikhungo zewayini ezilinde emaphikweni. Bengikubheke ngabomvu ukuhlola imigwaqo nezitolo zezindawo ezintsha, ukuthola izakhiwo ezintsha nezobuciko kanye nedizayini emahhotela esitolo, nokukhuluma nabapheki mayelana nezinto zabo zemenyu ezintsha.
Uma ngiphelelwa isifutho sezinwele noma isikhiphi se-nail polish, kungabi ndaba zalutho, ngigqoke ijazi, ngibambe ama-mittens ami nesikhafu, bese ngigijimela ku-Duane Reade (ngengeza amaphekhi ambalwa ama-chips nama-pretzels kungxube yokumaketha). Ngenxa ye-Decider-in-Chief, kufanele ngicabange kusengaphambili ngayo yonke into yasendlini. Ngabe ngizoba namathawula ephepha anele, isinkwa, ujamu, ulethisi, insipho, nesihlanzi sezingubo ukuze siqhubeke ngesonto elizayo njengoba ngingeke ngikwazi ukuvikela indawo yokulethwa kunoma ubani (kusuka e-Amazon kuya eKudla Okubalulekile) emasontweni amabili ezayo.
Ngibonga uMnqumo oMkhulu angikwazi ukuhlangana nomqeqeshi wami e-Crunch, noma abe-Physical Therapists bami...ngakho - ukuze ngiphinde ngihambe (okulandela ukuphuka kweqakala ngo-December), kufanele ngithembele ku-YouTube ngakho konke okuvela kwezokwelashwa. iseluleko sesiqondiso sendlela yokwenza iqanda eliqinile eliqinile (iresiphi ayizange isebenze).
I-Decider-in-Chief, inginikeza isikhathi sokuphumula esingafuneki, ingisize ukuba ngikhulume ngokuzolile nabantu abalungile abasasebenza kwa-Spectrum and Apple. Bazwakala sengathi balungile ngemisebenzi yabo, futhi ngiyabonga ngokuthi ngibe nomuntu engixoxa naye namuhla.
Impilo nge-Zoom
Ngingaphinde ngibonge i-White House ngemihlangano ye-Zoom. Manje sengiyakwazi ukubuka izingqungquthela zabezindaba ngintofontofo yegumbi lami lokuphumula (ngenkathi ngilungisa izinzipho ukuze ngizigcine nginesithukuthezi ngokuphelele). Ngaphambi kokuvalwa komphakathi, kwakudingeka ngisukume, ngigqoke, ngigibele ibhasi, indlela ehamba ngaphansi, noma itekisi, futhi ngichithe amahora ngiya futhi ngibuya kule micimbi okwathi, izikhathi eziningi kunalokho, kwaba ukumosha isikhathi ngokuphelele. . Kodwa-ke, ukuba nobuso nobuso nabahleli bamaphaneli kungenze ngakwazi ukubuza imibuzo yami futhi ngilindele impendulo (ukugijima mhlawumbe noma ukuvala uphawu, kodwa okungenani ngaphezu kwesaladi yamagama). I-Zoom ikhiphe inketho yombuzo ezandleni zami futhi wanika umhleli womhlangano amandla.
I-Zoom yenza kube lula ukukhohlisa ngoba ayinikezi ithuba lokuthi ngibone ukuthi bangaki abantu abeze emhlanganweni. Abantu abathintana nomphakathi bathi bekunenqwaba, amakhulu, izinkulungwane...Anginayo indlela yokunquma ukuthi lezi "izindaba zomgunyathi." Angizazi futhi izincwadi ezimelelwa abahambele umcimbi. Ngemva kokulalela imibuzo embalwa eyamukelwa umhleli wenkomfa, kuzwakala kimi ukuthi imibuzo eminingi yakhiwe indodana yakhe eneminyaka emi-3 ubudala ngenkathi eyenzela isidlo sasekuseni njengomvuzo.
OOPS
Bese kuba nendaba yezifihla-buso. Okokuqala iDecider-in-Chief yathi asiyidingi imaski. “Umkhuhlane” ngeke uhlale isikhathi eside futhi imaski embalwa etholakala kulo lonke elase-United States of America kufanele igcinelwe ochwepheshe bezokwelapha kanye nezempilo kolayini bangaphambili. Ngizibheka njengomuntu oshisekela izwe, ngakho, njengoba abangani bami bethenga izifihla-buso zokuhlinza, nezifihla-buso eziwashekayo nezilahlwayo, ngazimbambatha emhlane ngenxa yokuba isakhamuzi esihle; Bengingeke ngisuse imaski kumuntu obeyidinga kakhulu kunami. HAWU! Lwafika usuku lokulandisa. Kubukeka sengathi i-Decider-in-Chief yabubukela phansi ubudoda “bomkhuhlane” namamaski okudingeka agqokwe. Kufanele zigqokwe nini? Ngezikhathi ezithile? Uma ngisebhasini/umzila ongaphansi komhlaba/itekisi/umgwaqo oseceleni/ngishawa??? I-PR isuke kokuthi “noma nini” iye kokuthi “njalo.”
I-Decider-in-Chief iphinde yathembisa ukuthi “umkhuhlane” uzonyamalala ngenkathi yasentwasahlobo futhi uzophela nya lapho ama-daffodils ebhodla enhlabathini efudumele. Manje sekufudumele (ama-degree angama-77 eManhattan), ngibona ama-daffodils efasiteleni lami lokulala - ngenkathi ngifunda ukuthi izigidi zabantu ziyagula futhi ziyafa ngenxa ye-COVID-19. Ku-Decider-in-Chief lena enye nje i-OOPS.
Ngiphume
Ukuba “ngaphandle nokuzulazula” muva nje kuye kwaba yilungelo esikhundleni sokuba umsebenzi wansuku zonke. Amalungu omndeni we-Decider-in-Chief kuphela angathatha ama-limousine awo awayise kujethi yawo yangasese futhi acashe ezindaweni zawo eziseNew Jersey noma eFlorida noma nini lapho ethanda. Izihlabani zama-movie, ongoti be-TV, osozikhondlakhondla baseWall Street, namanye amalungu ekilabhu e-Rich and Famous (engaziwa) abanankinga yokuzulazula emhlabeni wonke baye eziqhingini zabo eziyimfihlo, e-chateaux, ezindaweni zokuhlehla, ukuze babalekele isithukuthezi sokuvalelwa. Kithina sonke, sinokuzikhethela, ukuqhubeka nokuhlala ngaphakathi kwe-1200 sq. feet (noma ngaphansi), noma sibe nesibindi futhi siphumele ezindaweni zomphakathi. (O, ngicishe ngakhohlwa, amapaki amaningi nezindawo zokungcebeleka zivaliwe).
Ukufa Ngezokuthutha
Ngaphandle kokunethezeka kwama-limo angasese, “izakhamuzi” siphoqeleka ukuthi sisebenzise izinto zokuhamba zomphakathi (okungenani thina esihlala endaweni eyingqophamlando ye-COVID 19). Nokho, izithombe zabantu abahlala kule ndawo Isitimela saseNew York yenza izindawo ezimpofu zaseNdiya naseNingizimu Afrika zibukeke njengezindlu ezithengiswayo.
Kuyadabukisa ukuthi iNew York ineMeya eshaya indiva abantu abampofu kakhulu abangenazo izindlu, ukudla, amashawa, izindlu zangasese…izidingo eziyisisekelo zomuntu. Uye wajabulela ukuqoqa yonke imali etholakalayo yena nomngane wakhe womshado kuyilapho enganaki abadinga kakhulu. Ukube bekungengenxa yezingqungquthela zabezindaba eziqhubekayo ezibizwe uSihlalo Osabambile we-MTA, amadoda, abesifazane nezingane abahlala emigwaqweni engaphansi komhlaba yaseNew York ngabe bakhona baze bashona bayiswa emalolini e-U-Haul asetshenziswayo njengamanje. ukugcina izidumbu.
Back to the Future
Ingabe kuzoba nekusasa elingcono? Izazi-mlando zithembisa ukuthi ngokombono wazo, “nalokhu kuzodlula.” Basho izinsuku ezimbi/ezisabekayo Zokuwohloka Kokudangala Nokuwohloka Komnotho, izimo eziphuthumayo ezehlukene zezokwelapha esizichithile ngempumelelo (noma okungenani sazihlanganisa) zisuka kwa-SARS zaya kuVirus yaseNayile. Ososayensi nodokotela bathole amakhambi noma imithi yokugomela uvendle, Isimungumungwane, Imvukuzane, ngisho nemithi yokwelula izimpilo zabantu abane Aids kanye Nomdlavuza.
Kuyadabukisa ukuthi i-medical gurus ayiyitholanga indlela yokwelapha i-narcissism futhi ingxenye ebalulekile yentando yezombangazwe eWashington DC ilume i-apula elibolile, ithengisa imiphefumulo yabo ngokulunywa okukodwa okuluthayo okuvela kuCandy Man.
OMG. Ngolunye usuku
Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi ukuvuka njalo ekuseni ngaphandle kokukhwehlela noma umkhuhlane kungabhekwa “njengosuku olubusisekile.” Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi ngingalangazelela ukubona udokotela wami wamazinyo, noma udokotela wami wamazinyo. Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi ngizokhathazeka ngokunakekelwa kwami kwezokwelapha…kunjalo, udokotela wami wayezongibona, akhulume nami ocingweni, athinte ikhemisi. Ngangizithola izidakamizwa zami, ngilale izinsukwana, futhi ngibe muhle njengomusha. Angikaze ngicabange ukuthi uhambo oluya elondolo luzoba umcimbi omkhulu - ukusuka kumagilavu, kuye kumaski, kuye ezintweni zokuhlanza, ngethemba ukuthi ngeke ngihlanganyele ikheshi nomakhelwane bami, ngisho nokuncika ngodonga noma ukujika ikanobho kungaholela eyami. ukufa.
UBANI?
Ngiyaqhubeka ngithemba ukuthi lezi zinsuku/amasonto/izinyanga/iminyaka - ziyiphupho elibi elilodwa nje nelide ngendlela emangalisayo njengoba iqiniso linzima kakhulu futhi liyinkimbinkimbi ukuthi lingaqondwa…kodwa ngiyazama. Ngisanda kuhambela izingqungquthela ezimbili zabezindaba ze-Zoom eziklanywe futhi zakhiqizwa yi-WHO (World Health Organization). I-Decider-in-Chief ihlela ukuyeka ukufaka isandla enhlanganweni, futhi kubonakala sengathi amanye amazwe (okungenani) acabangela ubudlelwano bawo nale nhlangano yomhlaba wonke.
Ngiye ngathatheka ngabakwenzayo (nabangakwenzi), kanye nezintshisakalo nokugxilwa kwezepolitiki kweqembu. Yize ngithumele imibuzo emicimbini ye-Zoom, imibuzo yami ishaywe indiva “ngesikhathi sangempela.” Ngemuva kwalokho ngizithumele ngokubhala futhi ngathumela nge-imeyili. Ngaqinisekiswa ukuthi ngizothola impendulo emibuzweni yami yokuqala ngoLwesihlanu, Meyi 1 (namuhla ngoMeyi 3 futhi anginayo i-imeyili evela ku-WHO). Ngithumele imibuzo eyengeziwe ngoLwesihlanu (ngemuva kokukhumbuza i-PR ukuthi bengisalindele izimpendulo) - futhi ngaskena ngokulangazela ibhokisi lami lokungenayo ukuze ngibone ukuthi azikho yini izimpawu zokuphila (nobuqotho) eziphilayo futhi ziphilile kwa-WHO.
Ngizoqhubeka nokuphishekela i-WHO. Ngizama ukunquma, ukuthi ubani ngempela ku-WHO. Ingabe le nhlangano ine-ajenda engaphezu kwalokho okuvela kuwebhusayithi yayo ehlanganisa: ukulungiselela izimo eziphuthumayo ngokuhlonza, ukunciphisa nokulawula izingozi; ukuvimbela izimo eziphuthumayo kanye nokusekela ukuthuthukiswa kwamathuluzi adingekayo ngesikhathi sokuqubuka; ukuthola nokusabela ezimweni eziphuthumayo zezempilo kanye nokweseka ukulethwa kwezinsizakalo zezempilo ezibalulekile ezindaweni ezintekenteke.
Kubukeka kimina ukuthi i-WHO ayizange iphile ngokuvumelana nobudlelwano bayo nomphakathi. Ingabe lokhu kuzoshintsha? Ngabe ukugqama komhlaba wonke ngale nhlangano, ngesabelomali sika-2020-2021 sika- $ 4.8 billion (noma amabhiliyoni angama-2.4 ngonyaka), kuzoba sobala emisebenzini yayo, futhi ithathe ubunikazi balokho enakho nengakakufezi futhi inikeze ngezinhlelo ezibambekayo nezinemininingwane ngalokho elizokwenza esikhathini esizayo? Isikhathi sizokutshela…Hlala ubukele.
