Men wash plates in Dubai
Meanwhile, YEN.com.gh earlier reported that a short video shared on TikTok showed that many people who travel abroad work really hard to make money, even at jobs they would not do back home.
In the clip, men were in what looked like a restaurant's kitchen washing piles of plates. With aprons tied and nets worn on their heads, they got really busy with their tasks.
Some of them made small talk as they worked. All around them were dirty plates waiting to be cleaned.
