Netizens criticise the apprentice's boss

@Dollar_Kerry said:

"I was taking my daughter for checkup one day, and I saw one saloon on the road, a girl was kneeling infront of it, under the hot morning sun, I was so disgusted and pissed, but I didn’t have enough energy to intervene as I was like 1 week postpartum.

"What kind of human Abuse is this??? After we will call the government wicked and stifling yet we’re no different when put in a place of power. ‍♀️"

@UGONNA_JAY said:

"These people that call themselves CEOs whenever they open a small store or smell small money, can go to any extent to punish their workers just to prove a thing. It’s more honourable to sack a worker/apprentice than subject her to this nonsense."
