A popular Twitter news account shared a photo of a young Saudi, Meshary Abu Awila Megrahi, who is very proud of his work as a painter.<\/p>\n

In the tweet, he says “I am not ashamed of my profession. I’m proud when my clothes get dirty for the sake of earning a living.”<\/em><\/p>\n

People on social media have since greeted Megrahi and expressed their pride over a Saudi national with hard-working traits.<\/p>\n

It’s refreshing to see people defying societal norms<\/h3>\n

This type of action and gratitude isn’t a common occurrence in the Gulf, where many of its nations are usually subjected to a misconception that all Khaleejis<\/em> are affluent and don’t have to work minimum wage jobs for a living. <\/p>\n

Plus, this truly shows that Saudis are more than capable to take on jobs that had usually been given to expatriate workers and that they, too, are hard workers.<\/p>\n

And people seem to agree with his sentiment…<\/h3>\n

“Good job!”<\/em><\/p>\n
