A Nigerian former Head of Department (HOD) was rejected for a cleaning job in the United Kingdom due to lack of mopping experience, resulting in tears.

A video shared online shows a man expressing frustration while riding a bus home after an unsuccessful job application.

He lamented the irony of being turned down for an entry-level cleaning job after previously holding a senior academic position in Nigeria.

Sharing a video of himself going home, he captioned …

“Former HOD rejected for a cleaning job. Reason: Lack of mopping experience.

UK go humble you, pounds go pound you.”
