A Nigerian man has gone viral after recounting how he lost his job and secured a better one within minutes while working at an airport in Canada.
In a video shared on X (formerly Twitter), the man explained that he was working as a ramp agent, handling baggage loading, before he was dismissed due to repeated lateness during his probation period.
“I was fired around 11:40am. They said since I had been coming late during my probation, they had to let me go. I didn’t even feel bad. I just told them it’s not your fault.”
Rather than dwelling on the setback, he said he immediately took action by walking into another office within the airport to seek a new opportunity.
“As I came out, I entered another office and asked if they had vacancies. They asked if I could drive, and I said yes. They gave me a driving role immediately. I moved from $19 per hour to $24.”
According to him, the transition was swift because he already had the necessary airport clearance, allowing him to begin the new role almost immediately without going through a lengthy hiring process.
