I am Jack's burning betrayal

For the past few days I have been going from house to house with Aggrey making sure that all the host families get paid before Aggrey ultimately gets the hatchet. End result: a growing empathy for the vastly ineffective defect in the local organization. However, might I say, he has reasons for being defective as I discerned from the stories he told me when we were walking. Apparently, he went to seminary in Arusha, was moved to Kampala in Uganda, and then did missionary work in the Congo. He liked the Congo just fine apparently (I was like WOW the Congo? People can live there?? Thanks American school system!). Then he told me he was moved to Darfur for 6 months. (HOLY SHIT). He lasted for 2 months and ultimately left seminary as many of his friends died in that time. Now he is here and about to get fired. Anyway... I know he isn't helping the organization, but I feel really bad for him.

Anyway, back to teaching.
