Yeboah Benjamin writes  As a business student, I know of Dud cheque but the first time I have a taste of it, I nearly went mad. Infact the taste is more than painful and bitter. Words can't describe the feelings. As a young graduate actively seeking for Job, I first opt to go for a sales representative of an insurance company (name withheld) while I continue my search just to sustain me for the moment.
