RV Pundit:
So after kitu 20yrs as couch potato writting software for ngos as Njamba would say - I decided to take early retirement - cashed out pension - tururu kajiado - quarry - crushing stones. Not easy as I thought. But definitely I feel "alive" - healthy - like I havent felt the last decades sitting in computer. The major downside apart from money sinking going on is dealing with riff-raff - drunkard mechanic, driver, operator -   and zero work ethic - guys arrive at site 9ish and start to prepare tea - start work at 10ish - mvua kidogo - I basically need to be there - evading elephants, monkeys and etc of Kajiado. I forget something must break every day - there has to be repairs for xyz - every single day.

And now the flooding.

You can try poaching employees from established sites in Ndarugu and such. Have a line when crossed they get fired.

It reminds of a manger who back in the 1980's retired in his 40's to go farmin Kitale. After some years of tolling he told me had he known what farming really is he would have never given up his well paying job in Nairobi for that venture.

Fake story

Having spent many years in construction,Ballast and machine cut quarries in Kajiado and machakos China wuyi, Kays, aristo, mugoya, suraya, blue stone, rajani start production at 4AM in the morning.Some produce overnight because it's a Volume business.

In the ballast and stone production business,the driver loader operator and other labourers are paid on a daily basis between 1000-2000 per day,No work No pay...These people work hand in hand with brokers and tipper drivers.Although they drink changaa/Makali..they are very effective.no work no pay,they don't mess up.very disciplined chaps.

I don't see how someone who used to earn 1MN salary per month would venture in stone production business at 40 years.It just proves low IQ.very stressful unless you are doing money laundering.

Land leasing cost 5MN plus,Machine 5MN plus (chinese crusher 5MN or European crusher 10MN) licensing and other production related costs (pickup welding machine store power installation) another 5MN,It means the start up cost are over 15MN.

I haven't factored the wheel loader for loading or clearing another 5MN and excavator which would cost 5MN+..but if it's a small start up you would hire them and pay the owner 1000 bob per every tipper loaded.

To make matters worse,the cost of soil excavation before you hit main rock.

Such a business requires investment from stolen GOK taxes not hard earned money.

No wonder Anne Waiguru's hairstylist, Josephine Kabura joined that quarry business with the NYS loot. :D
