Seun takes a job as the gateman of his late father's company. The manager makes him stand in the sun, cuts his pay and pours his lunch into the gutter. Only Mama Bisi, the cleaner, shares her food with him. Nobody at the company knows who he really is.
The lesson
Treat everyone with respect. You never know who they are.
Questions to ask after watching
- How did the manager treat Seun when he thought Seun was only a gateman?
- Why do you think Mama Bisi shared her rice with him?
- Seun could have shouted at the manager in the boardroom. Why didn't he?
