Viral videos on social networks that can lead to debate on a labor issue. This is what happened with the story of a young man from the United States, who decided to go to work sitting in protest against abuse in his workplace. A security camera captured the moment, which led his boss to fire him without supporting his motives. The event went viral on TikTok.
In the images published by user @lolcarloz, you can see that the boy packed several boxes without leaving his chair. As he explained, he did so because he was not paid more money for the work he did.
“My boss caught me doing this and fired me. (I sat down) because I realized that working hard for $10.65 an hour in a deposit is not worth it,” the young man wrote in the description of the TikTok video.
The video has more than 1.3 million views on the social network, as well as more than 82,000 likes, with the song Monkeys Spinning Monkeys by Kevin MacLeod. User @lolcarloz clarified that the recording is from 2021, and that currently “I would be receiving at least five dollars more for the same work”.
After the clip went viral, there was a debate among users. While some supported his idea, others questioned his decision.
“Minimum wage = minimum effort,” said one netizen. “I swear they like to see us suffer while we work because... What is wrong with sitting in the chair if you still manage to complete the tasks?” a woman asked. “You are packing things to be sent at a certain time and, when you do it sitting down, you are going as slowly as possible,” one man asked.
“Sometimes, working hard and doing your job well (even when it's a honey***) is preparing yourself for the next best job,” wrote another netizen.
WHAT IS TIKTOK
If we type 'TikTok' in the Google search bar, one of the main results that will not be visible will be the definition of Wikipedia. This website points out that this platform, known as Douyin in China, is a social networking service for sharing videos owned by the Chinese company ByteDance.
Although this social network began to gain more popularity in 2019, during the quarantine caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2022, its popularity exploded around the world, as both adults and children were attracted not only to watch and share the content they liked, but also to create it.
HOW DOES TIKTOK WORK?
The application, which is downloaded for free, allows you to upload videos and record from the same platform. It is available for iOS and Android. To create a profile, you must first log in with the Line, Talk, Twitter, Gmail, Instagram or Facebook user. Charli D'Amelio, Dixie D'Amelio and Addison Rae are the most famous tiktokers with a large following.
