Holly Shitt! Hundreds of Somalis in Edmonton gt laid off

Post by FieldMarshalMenace »

They are in Somali restaurant wailing and in agony after getting laid off unexpectedly.... As many of you know the oil prices have been plummeting...About a decade ago Somalis in the thousands rushed to work in the oil fields of Alberta but this new phenomenon has never happened to them and they didn't save any money ..They embarked on building major houses in East Africa, they also spend on it on nice cars and a house for wifey but now the chicken have come to roost...its been reported dudes are asking for grocery money of other Somali relatives

May Allah make it easy for my Somali brothers in Alberta.

And I've been reading forecasts and it looks like oil prices will stay cheap in the near future.
