When you’re in Rome, behave like the Romans.



It beats me every time.

So far it’s not detrimental to your health, just do as they expect of you.

And for that neighbour to have called the police, he may be a conservative Muslim, with daughters and wives in his house, he feels he’s trying to protect.

For those that may want to come with the whole liberty abi freedom talk:
. He knew the country he was going to
. He chose where to live (maybe what he could afford) - For this reason, Kano state has an area named Sabon gari, within which those who want to dress sparingly can reside comfortably, but must dress appropriately when heading into their cities.

It is well…
Lolzzzzz 🤣

That's why hr terminated his job?

Congratulations then!
I don't even know why he's telling his story. you got fired for ur impudence.
I will also like to know what part of Africa he's from...

He behaves like the idiotic tribesmen who decide to travel to just any country, live right next to the native community, and then deliberately refuse to study/understand the history/cultural practices of the people he stays with.

Mind you, this willful ignorance is deployed as a ruse, so he can disrespect his hosts culture & same time deploy his own criminal culture.
The masterstroke, when shit hits the fan is to then gaslight & claim some universal wokeness by telling them how things are done by his masters (the ytes), and how his host ought to emulate him! Crass stvpidity. If it were the past they'd skin him alive.

Israel also doesn’t understand Arabs and that’s why Israel believes so much in fire for fire and heavy bombardment as the only sure way to handle such individuals.

Deportation is still good. One neighbor warned a man to stop scratching his prick whenever he is passing cos of his daughters and wife.
The other time he decided to scratch his prick again, neighbor just allowed him to go out, then went to his house to stab his wife and 3 children to death.
Sad, this is quite sad. Innocent souls "downed" for no reason.

He has learnt his lessons

I thought Scientists claimed that "cultural and biological Flexibility and Adaptability" best define us as Humans. Why do people struggle adapt to a new lifestyle as soon as they find themselves in the midst of people of different culture?


Nigerians acting like prehistoric people everywhere, going about shouting 'culture shock' as if you yourself isnt a shock to those people
undecided

The report said " an African man" what formula did you apply to arrive at a Nigerian nationality.

Adjusting to life in a new country comes with many challenges, and cultural differences can sometimes lead to unexpected consequences. An African man living in Qatar recently shared how he lost his job over a dispute about wearing shorts to the gym.

According to his account, trouble started when his neighbor took offense to him wearing shorts to the gym. The neighbor constantly complained, often engaging in verbal quarrels and even calling the police on him. When officers arrived, they made it clear that wearing shorts was not a crime but advised him to opt for longer clothing to avoid repeated conflicts with his neighbor.

Reluctantly, he followed their advice for months, choosing to wear long pants just to keep the peace. However, one fateful night, thinking it was late enough to avoid drama, he decided to wear shorts again. Unfortunately, his persistent neighbor saw him and reignited the issue. This time, instead of backing down, he stood his ground, leading to a heated verbal confrontation.

Thinking the matter was settled, he was shocked when, the very next day, his HR department called him in and terminated his employment. shocked

He didn't lose his job for wearing shorts, he lost it to stubbornness!

Can he wear camo shorts in Nigeria?

He might not be Nigerian, but after wearing it once and being let go, he should wear it again and stand his ground and see if he won't be pounded into a patty.

Sebi e don stand in ground?

Now e don red.......e lucky sef say den no deport am.

When you can't obey other peoples set down rules . you start forming macho in another mans country. Deportation is supposed to be added to it sef. Dress courteously and when you get to the gym you UnCloth and exercise yourself and come back home in peace.

Responding to the bolded, when he was harassed over it and even the authorities were called. That should have clued him in that his dressing was perceived as provocative and offensive.

They are VIPs outta the crowd, in tension, tryna look professional, they can also get chilly thus wearing a coat is OK. But if you are going to one of them street-wise viewing centres, wearing a suit is clearly outta place. We need a lil order in Nigeria.
💯 Agree

I wrote on the thread where the woman used live chicken as souvenir and someone said I was jealous. Social media is making people celebrate public disorder for clicks and likes.

cultural differences and personal conflicts can have unexpected professional consequences, especially when living in a new country. The African man in Qatar's experience highlights how seemingly small issues, like wearing shorts, can escalate due to differing cultural norms and sensitivities. Even though he followed the police's advice to avoid further disputes, his decision to wear shorts again led to a personal conflict with his neighbor, which ultimately affected his job. This situation shows how navigating cultural expectations and maintaining a balance between personal rights and social harmony can sometimes lead to unintended and difficult outcomes.

The guy is architect of his job loss because he was advised against wearing shorts but his stubbornness earned him the loss of his job.
