Fruit picker who works abroad shares experience
In the video, the man known on TikTok as @mcoscartv, expressed his joy about his job, stating that he hasn't done any other work since he relocated.
Mcoscartv emphasised the reality of life abroad, where people often take up jobs that may not be considered desirable by others.
He reiterated the importance of being willing to work hard, regardless of the nature of the job.
According to him, he has stayed put in his job as a fruit picker, shunning other jobs because he enjoyed some privileges and opportunities through his current job.
