A Nigerian lady who recently moved to Canada has lost her job for saying ‘sorry’ too much.

The sad news was made public by a Tiktok user, @mmariaammx.

According to her, she got fired from her care attendant job in Canada for saying sorry too often.

In a TikTok video, she advised people to be ready to unlearn and relearn when emigrating to foreign countries, saying she has learnt her lesson.

She explained that she got a care attendant job as a side hustle as she already had a 9-5 work in Canada. On the first day of work, she noticed her employer had a health challenge that put her in pain daily and tried to be empathetic by always apologising.

@mmariaammx’s employer called her to order, noting that the constant ‘sorry‘ gets on her nerves. She refused to listen and this got her sacked days later.
