“How I lost a well-paying job because of a bottle of beer ” – Man recounts

Former Safaricom employee Chris Kim, also known as Chris Recovery, has revealed the terrifying details of how a bottle of beer cost him his job at the telecommunications behemoth.

Kim recounted the events that led to his job loss, revealing that he lost control one fateful day while attempting to satisfy his hunger.

“I used to drink a lot, so that day, I had taken a walk and was very hungry; I was just telling God to help me get food as I had not eaten that day,” he said.

Kim ran into an ex-girlfriend, who gave him KSh 100, which he used to buy basic groceries.

However, his day was ruined when he decided to stop by a local pub called Kwa Irungu for a quick drink, explaining that each glass of beer cost KSh 25.

Kim found himself receiving drinks from others once inside the pub, and before he knew it, it was 3 a.m.

Unbeknownst to him, his employer, Safaricom, had been desperately trying to reach him.

“A call centre manager had tried calling me. I had gone as far as where the brothel was to go and ask the ladies to sleep with me on credit,” Chris added.

He went on to share the shocking revelation that he sold his sofa to a neighbour after entering his house at 4 am.

The repercussions of that night extended to his professional life, with Safaricom ultimately terminating his employment.

“I went to a pub called Aston Villa, and that is the last time I went to Safaricom. They really looked for me, asked my sister Angela, but I was nowhere to be seen. The termination letter was given to my sister,” the man said.

Despite the loss of a well-paying job and the disappointment of his family, Chris Kim believes that his journey took a turn for a reason.

“My colleagues are now managers, but I always say God had a purpose. If I had stayed there I would have drunk myself to death and wouldn’t have helped other people in the rehab,” he added.

Chris, who has since found sobriety, now devotes his life to assisting others in overcoming alcoholism.

He encourages fellow alcoholics to seek help and avoid playing the blame game, emphasizing the importance of confronting one’s demons and beginning the road to recovery.

Chris recognizes the gravity of his loss.

In his words;

“It was a big loss, my family was disappointed.”

However, he hopes that by sharing his story, he can inspire others to confront their struggles, seek assistance, and embrace the possibility of a brighter future beyond addiction.
