They’re using food to snatch people’s lovers

Better hold the LOYL by the throat. [View in browser](=.MpIBHotSQGMiCnneG02vLtgPqoHAdVj3F_S1eHO4puM) [Zikoko Daily] 5 January, 2024 Hey . In case you haven’t heard, the motto for 2024 is “no gree for anybody”, and it looks like work spouses are taking it to heart. Yesterday, someone on X shared how her husband’s female colleague brought two spoons to work and invited him to eat. People berated work spouses for trying to get promoted to actual spouses. Others came for men who can be “snatched” through food. Most importantly, it inspired some of the stories in today’s newsletter. 👇🏼 Tife Editor In This Letter: - 1 [Do these 7 things if your partner has a second spoon at work](=.jXtHA8HjoNRW48QRvP1EPbMN31zNBc_sylozXPF-9r0) - 2 [The Nigerians who should inspire your “No gree for anybody” 2024 movement](=.SFo7HEuOesNvEQJIlifCmls8LF6RoVXVMpBj5kdQBPg) - 3 [These signs show your co-worker is about to resign](=.r0OOH1eA166ZhjmcH66G7JMMjKkuui9N-Erx6mtTvHM) SHORT READS I Tried to Steal Fish and Literally Got Caught Redhanded =.OkUGUkvumJMrdpiQf8EgxyZXYj0Pvd7A6i96RaXm8do “I remember clear as day, the one time I tried to steal fish from a pot of stew when I was much younger. My uncle had cooked it earlier, and it was extremely peppery. After we managed to eat it, he told me to wash the pot. Unknown to him, there were two pieces of fish left. Maybe it was the excitement, but I completely forgot how peppery the stew was, and I just shoved one of the fish in my mouth. I almost died. I started choking and coughing. My eyes started burning, so I wiped them — yes, you guessed it — with my stew-covered hands! By the time my uncle came to investigate my screaming, I was a mess. He couldn’t even punish me. I’d already used my hands to punish myself 😭” — Showemimo. Your story could be the next one featured here.
