Ghanaian comedian Funny Face has opened up about his difficult path before fame found him, from working with deco-plast to FanMilk.

He has revealed how a series of struggles and embarrassing moments shaped the man he is today.

Speaking with Headless YouTuber, the comedian recounted his days working at factories just to survive and support his family.

According to Funny Face, one of his earliest jobs was at FanMilk, where he worked in the sealing department handling products on a conveyor belt.

He explained that life at the factory was stressful, with strict rules that sometimes made working conditions uncomfortable for employees.

Recalling one painful experience, Funny Face disclosed that an unfortunate incident at work eventually cost him his job.

The comedian said he desperately needed to use the washroom one day, but company policy required workers to wait their turn.

Unfortunately for him, the person inside delayed for too long, leading to an embarrassing moment he could not control.

“We were allowed to eat anything we wanted, but we couldn’t take some home, so we mixed it. I mixed Fan Milk with Tampico, and I started running. And over there, the key card for going to the washroom was only one; one person needs to return before the other can go. And unfortunately for me, there was an inspection that day, I flatulated so bad,” he recounted

Funny Face revealed that management dismissed him after the incident, despite his explanation that it was accidental.

“They called me the next day and told me they knew what I had done. I tried to explain it was a mistake,” he recounted.

Beyond the embarrassment, He said the experience taught him resilience during a period when he was moving from one job to another with little stability in life.

He noted that although he kept the dismissal secret from many people around him, the story still spread, costing him a girl he liked back then.

Reflecting on the event, he noted that that is one of the things he still regrets in his life
