@@pinkaddiction13What sane teacher would do that? I'm a professor in a state where I don't even feel safe to discuss some topics die to our red state government. Recording my students without some compelling reason and even then if I had the student's consent (18 years plus), still would be a rarity if ever. Just seems like a bad idea.
I wish, when I was in the hospital for almost 2 weeks only 3 of the nurses were nice. Pretty sure a lot of them get sick of their job but don't know what else to do. They'll also get frustrated at a patient who asks for two things a day because someone else is spamming the nurse button.
Empathy? Ehh Caring? Yeah you sorta have to care if you're stopping someone from what could very well be their destiny Final Destination is literally just "this is what hospitals do, but you don't end up not alive by the end of the movie"
I genuinely don’t understand the drive to film yourself or others at work. Like, I’m too busy doing my job to even think about filming. Honestly how do people even find the time to pull out their phone and start making content when there’s a million and one things to do and not enough people on the shift to do them
This is the Internet and phone generation and so many people have mastered how to create content while doing other things, which is why I think it’s so easy for people to record at work
@@Itsbabygirlt I’m not that much older than the people I see doing it though 🫠 I’m only 27, and idk, I’ve just never really found time at work to even scroll on my phone outside of a scheduled break, let alone while actively on shift
Like that one nurse who had crazy camera angles. More cinematography in her tiktoks than some movies but that tells me shes taking time to place the camera, get the angle just and probably do a few shoots.
We can discuss whether it's right or wrong to film yourself at work until the end of times but to me personally, the wildest thing is how some people refuse to keep ANY sphere of their lives to themselves. People were not meant to have access to each other's business like that 24/7.
It's human nature to want to know everybody's business. That's why reality shows have are so popular. That's why you have the nosy neighbors peeking out their windows all day long. That's why you have gossip groups. People like drama...but usually from a distance.
Hey, new viewer 👋 I personally don’t like people filming at work , especially teachers , doctors or nurses … simply because A : you work with kids and they shouldn’t be exploited in any kind of way and B : your job as a doctor or nurse is very serious and your phone should be your last priority. Idk .. that’s my personal opinion and I’m not surprised people are getting fired . People can find every little detail about you and your life just from a simple video. It’s just not safe 🤷🏽♀️
Hiii, welcome and glad to have you 💓 thanks for mentioning the safety. I should’ve included how posting about your workplace and your schedule what timestamps can be very unsafe because you can get doxxed / stalked
I also think it may be a HIPPA violation to film in a medical setting. I work in housekeeping at a hospital & we are reminded on a regular basis about privacy and appropriate use of patient information.
I honestly don’t feel bad for these people getting fired, especially if they are filming coworkers or customers without their consent. I would be so angry if I found out I was in a coworkers tik tok without my knowledge. I’m at work to earn money and leave, not be filmed by some wannabe influencer who thinks they’re the main character.
It’s a selfish act I think, what if you post a video that has a person rather a coworker or people passing by and that person has something going on in THEIR private lives and doesn’t want a certain person or people to know where they work, live, shop, etc? Also if you work in healthcare, education, corporate you definitely shouldn’t post while at work or anything that has to do with work. Any little thing in that video could cause your employer to have legal or ethical issues. It’s crazy how people are almost addicted to posting their private lives especially people who have been in the workforce 25+ years.
Done celebrity catering as well jump behind a bar sometimes. It's a fine line I know how to walk others may not.I ignore people until they engage me then you can get the stories of what when and who with who 😅
I worked with kids for quite a while, and while at that job, the company explicitly asked me to keep a clean presence on social media. I can understand that 'cause if I'm working with children, their parents need to know that I'm not someone trying to manipulate their kids, etc. Now when the coffee shop I worked at had the same rules concerning social media? Yeah, that's bullcrap.
Depends even if you are not at work most handbooks say you are representing the company outside of work and should conduct yourself accordingly. I would still ask and get written consent. The Internet is to big don't get swallowed.
Can you imagine finding out your first baby pictures were not taken by you or your family, or even with you & your family, but just as a prop in a work TikTok of a nurse? That was the first photo ever taken of your child?
The mind rot on display when people who got fired for posting their jobs on social media, jumping RIGHT on social media to announce that they got fired to the world. Have some boundaries and self respect ffs. I remember thinking black mirror was such a crazy show but there’s aspects of it that we are seeing come to life now and it is scary.
I find it weird that people think they wouldn’t get fired like has common sense left the whole country??? Imagine paying someone to do a job for you and finding out they are using that time to make content for social media in hopes to go viral and quit. These are the adults we have now and I mean over 30…
Meanwhile it's their coworkers carrying their workload while they're changing camera angels every five minutes. The one that enraged me the most was that lawyer. You're a shite lawyer if you didn't know that another source of income would count as outside work, esp when it's stated in your contract. A hobby is one thing. When money comes into it, it definitely starts to split your focus and rest.
Because you have "at-will" employment. This type of dismissal from job is illegal in EU. We get properly written contracts what can and cannot get you fired, 30 day notice period, and all the benefits paid BY LAW. Americans really need to update their labour laws instead of being taken advantage of!
It’s strange! I hate it! Please stop filming your job! Especially if you’re a nurse. You have to manage setting up your phone and editing… please do your job! Why are people so surprised! 6 years ago if you were carrying around a camera to film at work, people would think it’s weird. Idk why people aren’t more afraid! Yea of course you can be fired for any reason! Freaking ask your work what the rules are if they don’t tell you
You’re so right! because phones are so small and portable, it’s not seen as weird to have it out and record. It’s become so normal we don’t even bat an eye
YES & honestly the hundreds of donuts in the trash really upset me. Why even bother paying for donuts when you’re just gonna do that, at that point just fucking hand them out for free
Unfortunately, that's not how whistleblowing works. If they filmed and went to the proper authority, then yes, they should be protected. It's harder to do so when you just post it online. I'm sure that restaurant was negligent and we have no reason to doubt the footage was genuine, but it was the wrong move strategically. Though hopefully the restaurant will face consequences anyway.
the teacher that posted an administrator "concerned" students were being taught their legal rights 100% needed to be filmed because it is blatantly concerning. Something like that falls more under whistle blower territory & revenge firing
Yup, but they used their social media policy to find a way around firing her and the district doubled down on their decision to keep her out of a job. Her crime doesn’t fit the punishment, imo
From the looks of the complaints she is a 3rd grade reading teacher who was sharing her interpretation of Constitutional Rights. And she don’t respond to emails lol
Yes that was extremely concerning & disgusting. It only proves to me that the woman is a great teacher because she actually cares about her students & is trying to protect them, she’s a hero in my opinion
But if it's not in the curriculum, I can see why they were asking questions. Like it or not, she shot herself in the foot by that smug attitude and making the dumb decision to post it online. Not much common sense IMO. Very important topic to teach of course, I agree. But she word vomited on tiktok when she's supposed to be a professional. Sorry I just despise the smugness and running to social media every time people have an issue with something. Some things are meant to stay at the water cooler, u kno?
That nurse saying that it was an ick for a patient's mother/whomever to come to the nurse's station really pissed me off because when I was a kid, I'd press that button and wait... and wait... and wait some more! One night, it had been hours and they hadn't shown up with my pain medication. So I called my mom. She called the station on 3-way and I got to hear the nurse say, "He's just sitting in there watching TV, he doesn't need any pain medicine." My mother went off! She told her that it wasn't her job to decide if I needed it. It was her job to give it to me when I requested it! I absolutely hate hospitals. Personally, I can't stand social media. Everytime I opened my Facebook page, I'd be hit with pictures of dead babies "needing prayers" and folks saying the most ridiculous stuff. (When I questioned them on it, I was usually blocked.) One day, I forgot my password, and decided that I didn't need it anyways. Haven't been back in over 10 years.
@@darylrichardson8567 It wasn't that. I know it for a fact. The nurses, and even 1 of my doctors, thought that I was faking. That's why she told my mom that I was drawing and watching TV. They were awful people that judged me even though they didn't know the specifics of my case. I was in the hospital multiple times a year. At first everyone was kind and helpful, but after a few years, they began to suspect that I just didn't want to go to school. That's when the snide comments started turning up and they began to ignore me.
My mom is a registered nurse and even to this day I use her as an medical advocate for me. If she didn’t advocate for her mother in the hospital she would’ve died.
Teaching students their government given rights is very important. Heaven forbid children don't know what all the freedom fighters who have died have done for us to have the rights we currently do. It teaches our children to stand up and continue fighting for injustices in our country as well as others.
The school just told on themselves and probably a large part of US education administration as well. And ppl wonder why parents are seeking alternative ways to educate they kids.
Technically, she’s not wrong, she did say that because she’s a nurse she can work anywhere and isn’t tied down to one place It’s those who aren’t as lucky that need to be more careful
@@brendamoon2660Agreed. She’s a nurse so it’s not “God’s got her”. It’s the fact that she has an in-demand job that is always hiring everywhere always. She’d have less success if she were something like a dog groomer or something.
I worked at a clothing store in my local mall for a long time, and one thing that always drove me absolutely mad was seeing how often certain coworkers were on their phones. Like FaceTiming a friend while there’s customers in the store, filming POV videos while they re-fold some shirts so it takes them 3x as long to get the shirts folded, playing online games with sound on, the list goes on… and I think the main reason they were never fired or asked to leave their phone in the back is because they would behave like perfect little angels when the store manager was there, so it was always my word against theirs. I don’t even understand the appeal of watching videos of people doing boring and mundane parts of their job never mind filming yourself doing those boring and mundane tasks while at work.
Recording what you’re doing always slows down how fast you would otherwise be able to do it , it must be hard working with someone who doesn’t get their work load done on time Also, you’d be surprised how how many people enjoy watching mundane things, it’s a really popular niche
I’m technically not even allowed to mention where I work online cuz corporate, so I’m not shocked people are getting fired for filming AT WORK or posting stuff that reflects badly on their employers… they kinda asked for it in a way?
If you listen to a lot of responses on why they got fired they say they didn’t think it was that big of a deal to film at work and were also unaware of company policy- so it makes me think they just weren’t caught until the video went viral
@@Itsbabygirlt that’s still pretty irresponsible. If you want to record something at or about your job you should probably check what is or is not a fireable offense. Not to mention in some cases these things could be considered time theft if your doing personal things while at work
@@Tatiana1451it’s in the ONBOARDING PAPERWORK. That’s why they’re not SUING, because they are wrong for MOONLIGHTING ON THE JOB! Employers don’t like you with 2 jobs
Not just help to people, but as a nurse you have to be aware of patient confidentiality.....I would NEVER want my family to be posted in that vulnerable position, so I would never do that to a strangers family member.
On the teacher lady, I paused and read through as much as I could. It wasn’t JUST about the rights thing (although given I was able to see that she’s a 3rd grade teacher, I fail to see what rights she was teaching them in a way they’d be able to comprehend). She was failing to reply to emails in a timely manner, her test scores were below average, she was sharing personal beliefs with students (big no no in education), and she was having the students read Harry Potter without a corresponding lesson plan according to district policy. Each one of those is, on its own and depending on her contract, a fireable offense as a teacher, especially if it’s a second offense as the long list implies. And if she appealed and the district upheld, as you state, then I’m inclined to believe she deserved the termination. It is SO HARD to get fired as a teacher because nobody wants to do that anymore so if they fired her while she was under contract, they had an ironclad reason
This makes me grateful about how my teacher in school taught me about not filming and privacy during classes and uploading on social media. If it wasn't for them i'd honestly end up like these people too.
It's common sense to NOT film at work when in jobs like hospitals. Why are people still doing this?? In your hiring process, everyone receives paperwork to sign that includes policies and procedures. Your best best is to read those items one by one so you're not surprised if you're separated for going against the company's social media policy.
The lawyer probably had such strict guidelines because she worked for a large law firm either thousands of clients in which there could be ethical issues. If you work or make money from a company your firm is suing or has some legal issue with. Even if you’re not working at a law firm these issues can arise which is why many companies have strict rules about moonlighting.
it's almost like you were hired/paid to do a job, and none of those job requirements included "post to tiktok"! if you aren't hired as a social media manager, just do your job please.
Conflicts of interest are a very valid reason for being fired as a lawyer. You cannot be allowing yourself to be bound by sponsorship contracts held by companies that you might end up in court against.
As someone working law, unless you sign a contract (not SOPs, not a policy, a full on contract) that forbids personal social media, you can fully sue and likely win if you are fired for making content (even paid) unrelated to your field or company. The woman working for a law firm was only able to be fired legally because she signed a contract forbidding moonlighting. If she'd made no money doing it, they'd have no leg to stand on.
In the US, most private companies have a social media policy and by being employed you have to adhere to the policy 🤷🏾♀️. It's very stupid in my opinion and I wish there were more laws protecting workers from being disciplined/fired at work for social media hoopla that occurred off-hours. I don't think what happens off-hours is any of the employers business. It's unfortunate that it's the way of the world now, so I keep all my socials locked down/vaguely anonymous. Moonlighting polices are also mostly bs. If jobs paid enough, people wouldn't need a second gig. I understand potentially an anti-competitor policy, but that should still depend on roles. A barista at Starbucks and Dunkin is not the same as an Operations Developer who actually knows trade secrets. The government really needs to step in and stop giving corporations so much power over what employees choose to do with their free time because of policies like these 😒
Someone in the comments who is a lawyer explained that there’s a conflict of interest because if you receive a paid brand deal, it could be seen as a possible bribe to leak information. That makes sense but instead of firing people, couldn’t they just ask you to be upfront about your paid sponsorships? that way everybody wins and there is transparency
I also think certain industries just don’t align well with being a social media influencer. There are some jobs where people expect you to be serious and more corporate so get readies with me and Vlogs just don’t go with what clients expect and the image companies want to portray
@@Itsbabygirlt They 100% could, but sadly most companies, including law firms, follow the ideology of it is easier to ask for forgiveness (or punish later) than ask for permission. I honestly don't understand why it is that way, but the fact that it is that way is why I have endless work in the class action space.
Well then you'll be happy to know that in some states, signing and acknowledging the Employee Handbook, which has social media policies, are seen as contracts. I know for a while Starbucks had on that stated that they owned what was filmed in their shops.
Filming at work is the primary example of main character syndrome; call me a corporate cuck but it's called being on company time. They own you while you're on the clock, you have to do everything possible to portray the company in a good light. Off the clock, do whatever the fuck you want and your employer should mind their own business. I work in healthcare, and I personally find it incredibly unprofessional to be on your phone at all, let alone filming, in front of or near patients.
Thanks for sharing! Does where you work have a specific policy about filming on the clock/social media policy? Since you work in healthcare like a lot of the nurses in the video
@@Enterbasicnamenere Obviously they don't own you in a literal sense. Employers are exchanging money for your time, and your physical and psychological labor. You are voluntarily forfeiting your time and physical and psychological labor from the moment you punch into work until the moment you punch out of work. During those punches, they all but own you. You're not there to be you, you're there to perform a specific set of tasks and nothing else. Does that constitute ownership? It depends. Sadly, for a lot of people, that's ownership.
My mom has been a nurse for 30+ years, around the age of the LPM lady. I came to her clinic job with her one time and sat in her office (which of course her manager is ok with) and during her work day she barely had time to check her phone or lounge around, and if she did come and sit down she was charting, preparing to see her next patients, filing labs, making calls, etc. Her daily screen time is less than 2 hours a day. When she works at the hospital she has more downtime but still usually is working on charts and labs and checking patients.
@@Itsbabygirltmy mom is an NP and these nursing creators do more harm than good sometimes, because some of them are not even qualified to advise on what they advise about (if what they speak on falls outside of their scope of practice). A healthcare clinician will make more of an impact helping patients or starting a website (or longer form UA-cam channel) that makes informational and researched patient education than making a TikTok. The people who see TikTok educational content show up to their appointments believing they have something that they don’t or try to tell her how to do her job.
Should you record yourself at work? In my opinion, no you shouldn't there's a very fine line of what you should record and post online. Now, if you've ASKED permission and they set rules for an example (no one else is to be in shot, only the person recording) and you follow them? Go for it, if you break them that's on you and you shouldn't be surprised if you get punished/fired for doing so.
The moonlighting thing makes sense when you work in a job where you work with sensitive information esp as a lawyer. I work at a law firm in my country in the IT department, (I'm not in the States) , and I have a similar clause in my contract. My manager says that it poses a conflict of interest ie you can be given/offered a brand deal in exchange for Intel. We have to declare everything even a piece of gum from a client. Also in cases of law firms esp big ones clients just don't like influencers or social media like that. It's a bit of a snooty environment ngl.
Thanks so much for sharing this, really gives more context! ❤️ luckily for the lawyer in this video, social media was profitable enough where she could transition fully into it
@@Itsbabygirlthe said he was fired when he made a follow up video admitting to handing out the cards. Had he not done that, he probably would not have been fired as the security company wouldn’t have known. He’s dumb for that.
I agree that it really depends on the job. I'm cleaning as a side job, I work completely alone, and I kinda get the urge to film sometimes and edit it to some fun music, but not for social media, i'm not really posting much anywhere. And as long as the job gets done well and nobody else is in my video, i don't think that could be a problem. If i worked with people though, I wouldn't film anything. That nurse just straight up showing babies just took me out, i think this is too much really... Great video and great topic!
I’d watch your cleaning videos, maybe post it only after you’ve quit the job 😅 but yeah, time and place is so important to reading the room on what’s appropriate to record and then post Thank you and thanks for watching 😊
this is my thought. i work completely alone at a fruit stand and sometimes it gets so slow that i feel like i might want to take some videos. but, if i was working with anyone or had customers, i would NEVER think of doing that
@@katelynwortman4180 thankfully I don’t work in people’s houses or apartments where it’s someone’s private place:) I clean staircases. So the cleaning company hired me, the owner of the whole house where others rent went to this company and purchased a service, so I go to this or that address every week or two weeks to clean. That’s why I thought of maybe filming.
@@Itsbabygirlt I might consider that😂 but it’s not much fun, just sweeping and mopping, occasionally getting rid of spiders and other dust and such. As i said in another comment, i clean staircases, sorry for not starting this earlier😁
Yeah I definitely see people on UA-cam live at work. When the manager comes to tell them to do something, they see the camera and it usually looks like they're struggling to change what they say and how they have to say it.
I think nurse John is okay because he's not actually at the hospital and his is lighthearted and funny. He never goes to deep with topics or makes offensive jokes about people's private information. But the rest of them.... Yeah, that's doing to much.
With the nurse at 8:55, I don't understand why she can't figure out why filming in the hospital, where anything and anyone in the background could eventually be seen/zoomed in on, is wrong. And then to say that, no matter what, she'll always make nursing content at her job? Yeah, she needs to be fired
Some of these videos are harmless and honestly helpful. Every time I’ve gotten a new job I look up the position and can see a full day routine. It helps me see what a day of work would be like. But some of these are actually ridiculous to record and post publicly! The caption of the Gucci post was insane! Acting like you would steal from a luxury brand is definitely warranted for firing 😂. It’s funny and something I might say PRIVATELY to friends! 😂The Joanne Fabrics was worse filming himself threaten customers was fireable just irl.🤦🏽♀️
Yeah, it can be super helpful if you want to learn about the job or the industry and I think people just like knowing other peoples business, which is why content like this keeps getting made
It's just not professional. It means you're doing your personal business during paid working hours, and that simply violates literally every work contract.
What I hate about social media is that the internet really does take it too far. It’s not enough that we can just get a laugh out of something or talk about it for a little while. The Internet has to talk about something in ad nauseam and to milk til its bone dry. That includes uplifting random strangers to the highest highs of fame and fortune or dragging people to the brink of suicide. Like, my goodness, I’d be so sad if the “Hawk Tuah” girl wasn’t able to move past that because of a 10 second interview. She said a funny thing, we laughed, we can move on. It takes the word “brand” to a whole new level. She said she doesn’t want it to be her thing and I get what she means from that. Like, yeah, that’s where is started, but give me the chance to be more than that. She looks really young so she deserves a chance to re-invent herself and catapult off of this momentum. Or people have the “right to be forgotten” like on the case of the high heels in the club lady. There’s no need to rip someone to pieces over a video that most people don’t even know exist.
The majority of companies have rules about how you use the company name, image, etc., on social media. People shouldn't be shocked when there are repercussions for posting videos or images made at work, especially when they are disparaging to the brand.
@babygirlt8938 everyone is given some type of support book, online forms to sign; most people either skim the material or just don't read through it at all.
I always keep my work life hidden from social media. The last thing I was people to know is where I work and what I do. Setting boundaries is important and this is no exception. Social media is a cesspool and no one needs to know what you do.
I've worked for a lot of places as someone in 30s, I've been laid off once because a project ended. But I've never been fired from a place. I find it very difficult to get fired. Like you have to go out of your way to screw up or someone in power has it out for you or something.
@@picahudsoniaunflocked5426yeah my mom was illegally fired because she didn’t fit their brand of a minority worker, despite them claiming to be inclusive lol
The JoAnn fabrics one was just kinda cringe and not necessary...dunno why you would work in retail and think you could just say whatever on the loud speaker with customers still in the building.
Honestly i would bet money there were no customers in the building, and that they just got done closing up and decided to have a bit of fun before the lights in the store turned off automatically. Keep that joke between you and the other closers though.
I was just talking about this with someone the other day. People who live in cities suffer from the same exact syndrome just because it is popular to be on the Internet doesn’t mean that people center their businesses around the Internet. A lot of these bigger corporations have learned that influencers don’t garner them any money And it’s only been beneficial for the influencer. With that being said if an employee is fired by a company cause they’re posting on social media it’s time for everybody to backtrack to elementary school about 20 years ago when we learned what you post on the Internet can affect your job. It’s almost like people just aren’t thinking at all. Just because someone else is doing it doesn’t mean you can do it too we need to bring that back. Too many people see someone else doing it and say oh I can do it too when in fact no you cannot
There’s a lot of herd mentality of just because other people are doing it, I can do it too. but you never really know what agreements people have that allows them to record at work or do whatever
I learned my lesson about mixing work and social media when a coworker ratted me out for insulting my manager on my _MySpace blog_ all the way back in 2006. I almost got fired and that was more than enough for me to set very firm boundaries between my online life and my work life from then on. Socials 100% private, no more mentions of my job, I wouldn't even add coworkers anymore after that. I FAFO with a lot of things, but not my livelihood. The only time it's acceptable to make videos at work is if you're the company's social media manager, if you're recording workplace harassment, or documenting violations or unsafe working conditions. Like the Popeye's roach lady- she was in the right. But otherwise I don't feel bad for anyone who gets fired for playing loose with company confidentiality and customer privacy.
Is not posting about work to social media not just common sense? Like, forget social media policies, do people not want to be doxxed? Why have your personal details on a public social media page? But in all seriousness, I don't understand why people don't think there's anything wrong filming and taking pictures at work and posting them publically on social media. I've worked in retail, nursing and corporate; all of those jobs have had social media policies. I just assume everywhere I work has a social media policy and don't post about work. Also on the topic of hygiene with touching phones and patients, you're absolutely correct (at least in Australia where I'm from). Hand Hygiene Australia dictates the 5 moments of hand hygiene: before touching a patient, before a procedure, after a procedure/contact with body fluids/infection risk, after touching a patient, after touching patient surroundings. If you got caught filming patients, whether they're able to consent or unable due to age, consciousness or mental state, you would be fired on the spot in both public and private hospitals here and you risk losing your AHPRA registration as well (healthcare worker registration for Australia, it's all publically viewable on AHPRA but registration and complaints are submitted and governed by/to regulatory bodies for your profession like the Nursing and Midwifery Board or Pharmacy Guild).
@@Itsbabygirlt I mean, I'm pretty sure internet safety became part of the school curriculum in the late 2000s or early 2010s by the time I finished primary school and even then, my primary school had a massive computer lab and weekly computer classes possibly since the late 90s when I was born or at least in 2001 when Windows XP was released (older sibling went to the same school so I got to hear all about it). We even had cyberbullying awareness classes or speakers. When there were actively issues with cyberbullying like on Ask FM either across multiple schools or ours specifically, they would amp up this anti cyberbullying stuff. It didn't stop the bullies, I should know, but people were at least aware of internet safety and all of those people who used to publicly show off how cool they were by posting frequent public pictures of their life to FB and Insta, to deal with normal teenage insecurity, ended up going fully private as adults so you know that it works, just not always at the time they learn it. I know the American education system isn't great, but surely they teach internet safety!
What's up, never seen your content before but this was interesting. I sympathize with some of these and don't sympathize with others. TikTok is a horrible app to open at work in general, and it should be common sense not to film at work. Very new gen thing to do in general.
@@CamJames thank you (I’m new-ish)! Love your work 😊 Yeah, social media and work clash because social media is about individuality and being your authentic self, but with work it’s all about conformity and adhering to rules. But a lot of people are not making the distinction and are treating work like an extension of themselves which they can share online
I work at the corporate level for a national brand and would absolutely never record at or about work. Companies go to great lengths to build their image and reputation over decades and they desire to control their narrative. We have a very strict policy against employees advertising our brand. Basically, it has to be approved by our Marketing Dept. What “influencers” dont understand is that established companies are not beholden to social media because their brand was established before the advent of social media. So, in their eyes, it’s supplemental, not a primary driver of sales.
I’m all about quiet quitting (AKA, just doing your job and nothing else), but there’s JUST doing your job and then there’s genuine workplace laziness. If you can record yourself being the main character, you’re not even doing the job you got hired to do. And the worst part is that it’s your coworkers, your peers, who have to pick up your slack. That isn’t okay and, yes, you should be reprimanded or fired for it. There’s also the fact that your coworkers are there to work, not be recorded. The customers are there for your services, not to be background noise for your videos. Now, outside of work? Do what you want. It isn’t your job’s business what you do outside of work, unless you’re constantly trash talking the company you work for.
Oh please they knew about the policies, none of them are victim and they deserved to get fired. One common rule to most work places is to “NOT USE YOUR PERSONAL PHONE WHILE WORKING”
Hello! This is my first video from you and it’s great :) thanks for your hard work! As for the subject matter I wonder if people do this (vent on social media, joke about work, etc) because they don’t have as many close friends? I say this as someone who is very impacted by the “loneliness epidemic” and my husband is my friend group ☠️ I think people lack others to vent to sometimes or maybe they want to feel special/important, just like we all do 🤷 I understand being mad, I understand not thinking, I don’t really understand putting my own business on social media instead of going to my work to tell them my problems or to a close friend if the job won’t listen/wont do anything
Hii, thanks for your kind words! I appreciate you watching ❤️ This is an interesting angle, I do think because social media is so accessible and can bring you closer to others, -even if it’s online -for a lot of people it’s a great avenue to share personal things because you may get feedback and support. The problem is when it goes viral when you weren’t expecting it to because you only have a few hundred followers so you may have been a little too honest
I started a side business. I told my company before signing the contract. Then I contacted HR once I started working. They agree that me making more money with a beauty business does not violate company's guidelines. Because these companies are crazy! I needed everything written and validated
If you're frustrated with a job, you vent to a close, trusted person or a therapist, not the entire public and potential clients(?) by treating social media as your personal diary. Also, posting on social media is a me-time, personal thing. In my opinion it's only okay to do that during break time at work since that's your personal time. But I don't think employees should be fired for posting on social media on their time unless it's something obviously morally and ethically skewed. That's just ridiculous.
@@sanjanat1085 there definitely has to be some middle ground. Employees should be reasonable about what they post but employers should not have so much power where every little thing is micro analyzed
The attorney is way different tho because whatever law she was practicing by moonlighting you create an unconscious bias and this can cause issues for cases. It can also be a legal issue by accepting money from a source that could be a client’s competitor at the firm. There’s so many things she is opening herself up to and the firm up to by doing that
So, I work retail as a supervisor, and we have annual compliance training that outlines very specifically what is acceptable and not acceptable phone/social media use at work, which basically boils down to: Don't. And this is for a convenience store where you can buy your toilet paper and snacks. I would be shocked if industries like medical/nursing didn't have similar or even stricter policies than retail, especially with the sensitive health information they have access to. That nurse like "well everyone else is doing it" girl, just because everyone else is doing it doesn't make it right. If you see everyone running red lights, doesn't mean you're not going to hit someone when you do it too. I think the sketches people do about workplace situations are fun and funny. Those are clearly done as parody and not on work time (which, another thing about filming at work, how much work time is going into setting up cameras etc? That's definitely time theft to be doing that on the clock).
@@Persewna4 thanks for sharing! ❤️ it seems your job may want to get ahead of any potential problems in the future. Unfortunately, not all companies do that which I think leaves room for people to make social media decisions based on their own personal opinion
I love your videos! I watched one last night which was my first video of yours. Truth be told, I didn’t expect to watch the entire thing bc of my attention span but your videos are so engaging and informative! New sub :) ❤🎉 can’t wait to watch more soon
This is the same for us in the airline industry! Flight attendants get in trouble all the time for posting TOO much online! Our job is amazing and people don't realize we layover and stay at hotels for free in different cities around the world! Even today I'm working to Paris and staying for a whole day ❤
I like to search for certain job positions on TikTok cause I know people post about their work day and it gives me an idea of what it’s like working there 😂
Everywhere I’ve worked has a “no phones” rule. Valid firing Edit: it’s best to assume every job has the same rules (just like schools have), so you can get that bag and not get fired. If you want to create work related content, put in some hard work and be an Etsy seller and record yourself making your products for awhile
I think younger people have a generally correct attitude of screw this job a lot of the time which changes their relationship to how they work. What can be missed when you think like that is that some jobs are genuinely important even (and sometimes often) badly paid or not respected jobs. Watching the security guard guy my brain was just screaming at me because there was a literal terrorist plot at a TS concert recently. Like man you have a real job to do and professionalism is super important here. My first good job was way lower stakes than security but it involved being around people who could be famous and day one everyone knows not to act like this. You’ve got a job to do so do it you’re not a fan.
not being able to discuss your work life online at all is major corporate overreach. I don't agree with filming on the premises unless you are trying to be a whistleblower. but if I do not expose privileged information or sensitive materials, I should be allowed to discuss what I spend literally 1/3 of my life doing.
True. It’s unfortunate that because of company policy they can pick and choose what they want their employees to share online even if it’s harmless content and if you go against that , it means losing your job or facing some type of punishment
You can argue if it goes viral it can cause problems for corporations that they don’t want to deal with so they’ll just take the easier route and replace you. I mean why talk about it where the public can blow it up at all. Not to say don’t talk about work but control who can see it, dms, private accounts, discord chats ect.
The teacher might be somewhat in the right, but she is just giving crazy girl vibes. And if you’re coming off a little unhinged online, that’s just a bad look for anyone entrusted with children for their job
I work with prescription health insurance and my employer has a strict no phones policy. I completely agree in this instance because we have to follow HIPAA guidelines. That's why I don't think it's appropriate for ANYONE involved in healthcare at ANY level to record video at work.
It’s not surprising that they were filming at work, their first reaction after getting fired was to pull out their camera and tell the world. I enjoy social media but I do feel like there needs to be boundaries on what we do and don’t post.
At most jobs employees are not allowed to have any use of a phone or electronic device, unless it's for a job related task... That is just common sense.
This is such a well made video, and illustrates many valid points. My company makes it very clear that you are NOT to post anything company related in ANY form - ever. If for no other reason, a company would be valid for dismissing an employee for creating content during the time that they are being compensated. I do feel bad for the attorney, but I am willing to bet that there is a clause in her contract regarding any outside employment. If she were not being paid by sponsors, she could possibly have had an argument. The paint store clearly missed out on an opportunity. What customer would not want to see custom paint possibilities❓ If you need your salary, I would gently suggest to not film at work, or while being paid by a separate entity.
What gives me the "ick" is going out in public and seeing people recording their TikToks and stuff, or constantly taking selfies, or recording themselves doing something embarrassing, or especially others who didn't ask to be recorded. I deleted my social media apps, but kept UA-cam. It counts, but loosely. I usually just watch science stuff, but wound up here. Bottom line is I don't like social media culture bleeding into our public spaces. I watched it become normalized over my lifetime, but it used to be better. Our bar is so low these days, and yes, it does affect the workplace, and your job performance to mentally be somewhere else and staring at your screen. At that point, just get a remote work job to work at your physical job, and at least get compensated for the "multitasking" 🤔
I’m a nurse, and if I saw another nurse filming a patient, especially a BABY, I’d go straight to the charge nurse/supervisor. That’s out of the question
Yeah, you're not being paid to be on your phone / social media at work. Social media has ruined humanity in SO many ways. We peaked in the 2000s, y'all. It's all downhill now. >.< That nurse talking about God having her back. God ain't gonna pay your bills, gurl.
It's disrespectful to the ancestors who got us here to give up & pretend this is the worst time ever. There have been many more "worse times" for humans & depending on where you are in the world, now might actually be pretty awful. But if you're privileged enough to watch this video & comment on it you're not one of the people stuck in "the worst time ever". Get some perspective & do right by the people who got you here by living your life in a way that leaves the world better for those to come. Sorry if I sound cranky, I'm really tired of people saying this is the worst time ever + I haver never once seen people who say that lift a finger to help. It's as if by saying it's just "downhill now", they give themselves permission to not care or try.
Also this is my first video from you! Great job! I kno it took a lot of time and effort so i just wanted to say that its very much appreciated and you got my sub ❤❤
There’s nothing to talk about! I think it’s so crazy to film at work! It’s so inappropriate 😅 especially when you film others without their explicit permission. I’m tired of the normalized exploiting of each other! It’s frustrating that people feel justified to start filming even if you’re uncomfortable. I know this is a bit of a separate convo but it’s related to
Exactly. One of my "icks" is people recording out in public. A couple years ago some teens came up to me in Walmart with their phones out, obviously setting up a Tiktok prank with me as the victim, no idea what they were planning to do but I just turned and power-walked away. Me rushing out to buy cat food at 10pm is not "content" damnit. I know it's legal, and maybe I'm finally reaching the "damn kids" stage of life but the thought of appearing in some stranger's video when I'm just minding my business out somewhere makes me extremely uncomfortable.
@@daughterofsekhmet81 no that’s a totally understandable reaction! Being filmed without permission isn’t funny or ok. I agree not everything we do is content, we’re just trying to get by…
I feel like this should be obvious maybe that's the Millenial in me talking but I would NEVER film myself at work. I would absolutely not do that. It's a professional venue. There's nothing I need on the Internet from work not to mention I don't want people to know where I work that's dangerous!
Lack of impulse control, professionalism and poor judgment. The fact that some of them try to justify it and their “me “ syndrome supercedes company policy is all the more reason they needed to be fired.
The main point of this video is to not record yourself working unless you are a content creator and then you must put your phone away and actually WORK. To me this just seems ridiculous on the amount of people who whine about getting fired but they are in full glam makeup and most of them are in their cars, so they seem relatable, unfortunately they missed the point that if you are at an office building then you should not even have the OPPORTUNITY OR TIME for recording yourself. If you have enough time to record yourself working, then you are obviously not in a high demand job. Most people who work are there to work and not play social media star. If you are recording yourself, then your job is not a high priority job that requires 100% of your time working, meaning you will be the first one laid off when the company has problems. Also, I never even had time to actually spend time working on setting up my phone to record myself. This type of thing is NOT PROFESSIONAL and you will eventually get laid off.
Let’s be honest . These people record at work knowing that it could lead them to trouble, so that when they do, they can turn it into a clout chasing video . They’re comfortable enough in life, that they’re completely fine with potentially losing their jobs
I’m not for posting online “days in the life of…” but those types of videos are helpful in that they give insight into the jobs people might be interested in working. Most of the time, I think people get fired for posting said videos because companies don't want people outside of their organization knowing about when they break laws, violate ethics, or simply don’t follow rules. That Popeye’s Tik Tok is a prime example.
Ppl need to realize that we are all expendable. There are soooooo many ppl in this world, and we just can't think that the company we work for can't do anything without you. Everyone is replaceable! Unless you have a rare talent that your company absolutely cannot exist without you, don't even think about it. Especially in today's economy where finding a job is damned difficult!
I have to go to the hospital multiple times a year for various health conditions and honestly, if I knew my nurse was “making content” while at work, regardless of how well they adhered to HIPAA rules, I’d feel unsafe. I get that it’s a hard job but being distracted while doing it isn’t the answer.
That nicu nurse was out of line showing people babies like that
@@jr5557 totally
I would raise hell! The audacity!
I was horrified at that! How dare anyone put a baby on the internet without parental consent.
I hate when teachers post people's kids on social media.
Especially those teaching in other countries. Ugh
@@pinkaddiction13What sane teacher would do that? I'm a professor in a state where I don't even feel safe to discuss some topics die to our red state government. Recording my students without some compelling reason and even then if I had the student's consent (18 years plus), still would be a rarity if ever. Just seems like a bad idea.
If im sick enough to be in the hospital i dont need the stress of knowing the nurses im counting on deeply resent me.
Yeah, and the truth is, you’ll never really know what’s going on in someone’s head
If healthcare workers resent their patients, they're in the wrong field. Empathy and caring are paramount.
I wish, when I was in the hospital for almost 2 weeks only 3 of the nurses were nice. Pretty sure a lot of them get sick of their job but don't know what else to do. They'll also get frustrated at a patient who asks for two things a day because someone else is spamming the nurse button.
I frankly don't care, as long as they do their job and do it correctly
Empathy?
Ehh
Caring?
Yeah you sorta have to care if you're stopping someone from what could very well be their destiny
Final Destination is literally just "this is what hospitals do, but you don't end up not alive by the end of the movie"
I genuinely don’t understand the drive to film yourself or others at work. Like, I’m too busy doing my job to even think about filming. Honestly how do people even find the time to pull out their phone and start making content when there’s a million and one things to do and not enough people on the shift to do them
This is the Internet and phone generation and so many people have mastered how to create content while doing other things, which is why I think it’s so easy for people to record at work
@@Itsbabygirlt I’m not that much older than the people I see doing it though 🫠 I’m only 27, and idk, I’ve just never really found time at work to even scroll on my phone outside of a scheduled break, let alone while actively on shift
They most likely are in the same area and do the exact same thing every day
Like that one nurse who had crazy camera angles. More cinematography in her tiktoks than some movies but that tells me shes taking time to place the camera, get the angle just and probably do a few shoots.
I think it depends a lot on the job. Setting up a phone & camera can take seconds
We can discuss whether it's right or wrong to film yourself at work until the end of times but to me personally, the wildest thing is how some people refuse to keep ANY sphere of their lives to themselves. People were not meant to have access to each other's business like that 24/7.
Especially when it comes to safety. The way people chronicle where they’re at and when they’re there and share their schedule can be so dangerous
Exactly. Having personal privacy is important. Some people are just dumb
It's human nature to want to know everybody's business. That's why reality shows have are so popular. That's why you have the nosy neighbors peeking out their windows all day long. That's why you have gossip groups. People like drama...but usually from a distance.
It’s social conditioning
Hey, new viewer 👋 I personally don’t like people filming at work , especially teachers , doctors or nurses … simply because
A : you work with kids and they shouldn’t be exploited in any kind of way and
B : your job as a doctor or nurse is very serious and your phone should be your last priority.
Idk .. that’s my personal opinion and I’m not surprised people are getting fired . People can find every little detail about you and your life just from a simple video. It’s just not safe 🤷🏽♀️
Hiii, welcome and glad to have you 💓 thanks for mentioning the safety. I should’ve included how posting about your workplace and your schedule what timestamps can be very unsafe because you can get doxxed / stalked
I also think it may be a HIPPA violation to film in a medical setting. I work in housekeeping at a hospital & we are reminded on a regular basis about privacy and appropriate use of patient information.
I honestly don’t feel bad for these people getting fired, especially if they are filming coworkers or customers without their consent. I would be so angry if I found out I was in a coworkers tik tok without my knowledge.
I’m at work to earn money and leave, not be filmed by some wannabe influencer who thinks they’re the main character.
And I oop- 🫢
There were so many different cases in the video; how do you have the same opinion about all of them?
Took the words out of my mouth. Good riddance 👋🏽 🗣️ NEXT !
It’s a selfish act I think, what if you post a video that has a person rather a coworker or people passing by and that person has something going on in THEIR private lives and doesn’t want a certain person or people to know where they work, live, shop, etc? Also if you work in healthcare, education, corporate you definitely shouldn’t post while at work or anything that has to do with work. Any little thing in that video could cause your employer to have legal or ethical issues. It’s crazy how people are almost addicted to posting their private lives especially people who have been in the workforce 25+ years.
Done celebrity catering as well jump behind a bar sometimes. It's a fine line I know how to walk others may not.I ignore people until they engage me then you can get the stories of what when and who with who 😅
that Popeyes HR lady literally called them cockroaches employees.😩
😂 haha
I get the recording at work but if I have a hobby outside of work they need to mind they business
Lol, agreed, especially if it’s harmless and nothing controversial
Yep, freedom of speech isnt so free
We need to be able to have lives outside of work
I worked with kids for quite a while, and while at that job, the company explicitly asked me to keep a clean presence on social media. I can understand that 'cause if I'm working with children, their parents need to know that I'm not someone trying to manipulate their kids, etc.
Now when the coffee shop I worked at had the same rules concerning social media? Yeah, that's bullcrap.
Depends even if you are not at work most handbooks say you are representing the company outside of work and should conduct yourself accordingly. I would still ask and get written consent. The Internet is to big don't get swallowed.
I’d be so angry if my nicu baby was filmed. Especially if it was without my knowledge.
A crazy breach of privacy
Can you imagine finding out your first baby pictures were not taken by you or your family, or even with you & your family, but just as a prop in a work TikTok of a nurse? That was the first photo ever taken of your child?
Stay mad, I guess
No I can't
Y'all have some wild boundaries that sound like you wanna be mad
But hey, it's you
I love it when people have emotions
@@millo7295 you clearly have no idea what it means to be a parent.
The mind rot on display when people who got fired for posting their jobs on social media, jumping RIGHT on social media to announce that they got fired to the world. Have some boundaries and self respect ffs. I remember thinking black mirror was such a crazy show but there’s aspects of it that we are seeing come to life now and it is scary.
Black mirror is a documentary at this point
Often that's how they bounce back + get their next opportunity/job. Did you miss that part in the video?
Like taking a nosedive
@@picahudsoniaunflocked5426on Only Fans?
I thought it was pretty standard for companies to have no filming policies. People just are not reading the company policy paperwork at hire
Very possible
They also lack common sense. You’re there to work, not make content.
Yes and many companies have strict online posting policies that you must agree to before you start or have recently been updated and you sign it.
@@2005deluxe The company I work for has a strict policy & you can be fired!
I find it weird that people think they wouldn’t get fired like has common sense left the whole country??? Imagine paying someone to do a job for you and finding out they are using that time to make content for social media in hopes to go viral and quit. These are the adults we have now and I mean over 30…
😂 but the truth is, a lot of people want their content to go viral so they can quit
Exactly… filming their discontent & wondering why
Haters joining a business to leech off they're money so they can go big at some point 😂 ain't me, lol
Meanwhile it's their coworkers carrying their workload while they're changing camera angels every five minutes.
The one that enraged me the most was that lawyer. You're a shite lawyer if you didn't know that another source of income would count as outside work, esp when it's stated in your contract. A hobby is one thing. When money comes into it, it definitely starts to split your focus and rest.
Because you have "at-will" employment. This type of dismissal from job is illegal in EU. We get properly written contracts what can and cannot get you fired, 30 day notice period, and all the benefits paid BY LAW.
Americans really need to update their labour laws instead of being taken advantage of!
It’s strange! I hate it! Please stop filming your job! Especially if you’re a nurse. You have to manage setting up your phone and editing… please do your job! Why are people so surprised! 6 years ago if you were carrying around a camera to film at work, people would think it’s weird. Idk why people aren’t more afraid! Yea of course you can be fired for any reason! Freaking ask your work what the rules are if they don’t tell you
You’re so right! because phones are so small and portable, it’s not seen as weird to have it out and record. It’s become so normal we don’t even bat an eye
This is so true but unfortunately there are a ton of self made mystery shoppers looking for a viral moment to cash in on.
i feel like posting a video of roaches should count as whistleblowing and be protected...
They could argue that she’s not supposed to be recording the kitchen and other employees
YES
& honestly the hundreds of donuts in the trash really upset me. Why even bother paying for donuts when you’re just gonna do that, at that point just fucking hand them out for free
As long as it's being reported properly as well, I agree.
@@ilovenycsomuchI think I’ve read that some people have given them away, but they would get in trouble.
Unfortunately, that's not how whistleblowing works. If they filmed and went to the proper authority, then yes, they should be protected. It's harder to do so when you just post it online. I'm sure that restaurant was negligent and we have no reason to doubt the footage was genuine, but it was the wrong move strategically. Though hopefully the restaurant will face consequences anyway.
the teacher that posted an administrator "concerned" students were being taught their legal rights 100% needed to be filmed because it is blatantly concerning. Something like that falls more under whistle blower territory & revenge firing
Yup, but they used their social media policy to find a way around firing her and the district doubled down on their decision to keep her out of a job. Her crime doesn’t fit the punishment, imo
From the looks of the complaints she is a 3rd grade reading teacher who was sharing her interpretation of Constitutional Rights. And she don’t respond to emails lol
Yes that was extremely concerning & disgusting. It only proves to me that the woman is a great teacher because she actually cares about her students & is trying to protect them, she’s a hero in my opinion
@@Ana-me.you took the long road to the same destination. she literally said that but go off queen 😅
But if it's not in the curriculum, I can see why they were asking questions. Like it or not, she shot herself in the foot by that smug attitude and making the dumb decision to post it online. Not much common sense IMO. Very important topic to teach of course, I agree. But she word vomited on tiktok when she's supposed to be a professional.
Sorry I just despise the smugness and running to social media every time people have an issue with something. Some things are meant to stay at the water cooler, u kno?
That nurse saying that it was an ick for a patient's mother/whomever to come to the nurse's station really pissed me off because when I was a kid, I'd press that button and wait... and wait... and wait some more!
One night, it had been hours and they hadn't shown up with my pain medication. So I called my mom. She called the station on 3-way and I got to hear the nurse say, "He's just sitting in there watching TV, he doesn't need any pain medicine." My mother went off! She told her that it wasn't her job to decide if I needed it. It was her job to give it to me when I requested it! I absolutely hate hospitals.
Personally, I can't stand social media. Everytime I opened my Facebook page, I'd be hit with pictures of dead babies "needing prayers" and folks saying the most ridiculous stuff. (When I questioned them on it, I was usually blocked.) One day, I forgot my password, and decided that I didn't need it anyways. Haven't been back in over 10 years.

They don’t like giving children medicine. Especially prepubescent teens and it’s near impossible if they’re under 5
@@darylrichardson8567 It wasn't that. I know it for a fact. The nurses, and even 1 of my doctors, thought that I was faking. That's why she told my mom that I was drawing and watching TV. They were awful people that judged me even though they didn't know the specifics of my case. I was in the hospital multiple times a year. At first everyone was kind and helpful, but after a few years, they began to suspect that I just didn't want to go to school. That's when the snide comments started turning up and they began to ignore me.
My mom is a registered nurse and even to this day I use her as an medical advocate for me. If she didn’t advocate for her mother in the hospital she would’ve died.
Teaching students their government given rights is very important. Heaven forbid children don't know what all the freedom fighters who have died have done for us to have the rights we currently do. It teaches our children to stand up and continue fighting for injustices in our country as well as others.
True
The school just told on themselves and probably a large part of US education administration as well. And ppl wonder why parents are seeking alternative ways to educate they kids.
@@fatalblueBIG FACTS
Saying that a job is just a resource and you don't need it because god has got you is a WILDDDDDD statement.
Technically, she’s not wrong, she did say that because she’s a nurse she can work anywhere and isn’t tied down to one place
It’s those who aren’t as lucky that need to be more careful
Wild and delusional
I cannot freakin stand these delusional women using God as an excuse to be irresponsible.
God always does what is best for you and sometimes that means letting you deal with the consequences of your foolishness.
@@brendamoon2660Agreed. She’s a nurse so it’s not “God’s got her”. It’s the fact that she has an in-demand job that is always hiring everywhere always. She’d have less success if she were something like a dog groomer or something.
I worked at a clothing store in my local mall for a long time, and one thing that always drove me absolutely mad was seeing how often certain coworkers were on their phones. Like FaceTiming a friend while there’s customers in the store, filming POV videos while they re-fold some shirts so it takes them 3x as long to get the shirts folded, playing online games with sound on, the list goes on… and I think the main reason they were never fired or asked to leave their phone in the back is because they would behave like perfect little angels when the store manager was there, so it was always my word against theirs. I don’t even understand the appeal of watching videos of people doing boring and mundane parts of their job never mind filming yourself doing those boring and mundane tasks while at work.
Recording what you’re doing always slows down how fast you would otherwise be able to do it , it must be hard working with someone who doesn’t get their work load done on time
Also, you’d be surprised how how many people enjoy watching mundane things, it’s a really popular niche
They’re JOBLESS! It’s amazing to them, that ppl get paid to do things
I’m technically not even allowed to mention where I work online cuz corporate, so I’m not shocked people are getting fired for filming AT WORK or posting stuff that reflects badly on their employers… they kinda asked for it in a way?
If you listen to a lot of responses on why they got fired they say they didn’t think it was that big of a deal to film at work and were also unaware of company policy- so it makes me think they just weren’t caught until the video went viral
Same!
@@Itsbabygirlt that’s still pretty irresponsible. If you want to record something at or about your job you should probably check what is or is not a fireable offense. Not to mention in some cases these things could be considered time theft if your doing personal things while at work
@@Tatiana1451 They should fix wage theft before we worry about time theft.

@@Tatiana1451it’s in the ONBOARDING PAPERWORK. That’s why they’re not SUING, because they are wrong for MOONLIGHTING ON THE JOB! Employers don’t like you with 2 jobs
Not just help to people, but as a nurse you have to be aware of patient confidentiality.....I would NEVER want my family to be posted in that vulnerable position, so I would never do that to a strangers family member.
Privacy during medical emergencies is so important!
On the teacher lady, I paused and read through as much as I could. It wasn’t JUST about the rights thing (although given I was able to see that she’s a 3rd grade teacher, I fail to see what rights she was teaching them in a way they’d be able to comprehend). She was failing to reply to emails in a timely manner, her test scores were below average, she was sharing personal beliefs with students (big no no in education), and she was having the students read Harry Potter without a corresponding lesson plan according to district policy. Each one of those is, on its own and depending on her contract, a fireable offense as a teacher, especially if it’s a second offense as the long list implies. And if she appealed and the district upheld, as you state, then I’m inclined to believe she deserved the termination. It is SO HARD to get fired as a teacher because nobody wants to do that anymore so if they fired her while she was under contract, they had an ironclad reason
Whoa, thanks for your catching that and sharing it, it definitely helps understand why they would want to uphold their initial decision
I knew she was up to way more, because they don’t just fire teachers. THEY CANT! I knew it!!! 3rd Graders😂😂😂😂
Yeah, she’s gotten them SUED
Hah! I knew there was more to her being fired, omg
You summoned it up perfectly. I too read as much as I could and came to the same conclusion. She's pretty immature for her age.
This makes me grateful about how my teacher in school taught me about not filming and privacy during classes and uploading on social media. If it wasn't for them i'd honestly end up like these people too.
Then you were super lucky to have that foundation!
Good for you
It's common sense to NOT film at work when in jobs like hospitals. Why are people still doing this?? In your hiring process, everyone receives paperwork to sign that includes policies and procedures. Your best best is to read those items one by one so you're not surprised if you're separated for going against the company's social media policy.
Yeah or at least ask if you have permission before you start filming to avoid issues down the line
@@ItsbabygirltRight…it’s not hard to just ask if you know that you like to make content to post online!
The lawyer probably had such strict guidelines because she worked for a large law firm either thousands of clients in which there could be ethical issues. If you work or make money from a company your firm is suing or has some legal issue with. Even if you’re not working at a law firm these issues can arise which is why many companies have strict rules about moonlighting.
Thanks for sharing 😊
FAX
it's almost like you were hired/paid to do a job, and none of those job requirements included "post to tiktok"! if you aren't hired as a social media manager, just do your job please.
Right
I feel bad for the lawyer. She did nothing wrong, just filmed unrelated beauty content in her FREE time. Its sad
It’s because of the paid sponsorships, the law firm didn’t know she was getting paid
Conflicts of interest are a very valid reason for being fired as a lawyer. You cannot be allowing yourself to be bound by sponsorship contracts held by companies that you might end up in court against.
@@Jane-oz7pp ok that does make sense

Very beautiful sister ❤️
As someone working law, unless you sign a contract (not SOPs, not a policy, a full on contract) that forbids personal social media, you can fully sue and likely win if you are fired for making content (even paid) unrelated to your field or company. The woman working for a law firm was only able to be fired legally because she signed a contract forbidding moonlighting. If she'd made no money doing it, they'd have no leg to stand on.
In the US, most private companies have a social media policy and by being employed you have to adhere to the policy 🤷🏾♀️. It's very stupid in my opinion and I wish there were more laws protecting workers from being disciplined/fired at work for social media hoopla that occurred off-hours. I don't think what happens off-hours is any of the employers business. It's unfortunate that it's the way of the world now, so I keep all my socials locked down/vaguely anonymous. Moonlighting polices are also mostly bs. If jobs paid enough, people wouldn't need a second gig. I understand potentially an anti-competitor policy, but that should still depend on roles. A barista at Starbucks and Dunkin is not the same as an Operations Developer who actually knows trade secrets. The government really needs to step in and stop giving corporations so much power over what employees choose to do with their free time because of policies like these 😒
Someone in the comments who is a lawyer explained that there’s a conflict of interest because if you receive a paid brand deal, it could be seen as a possible bribe to leak information. That makes sense but instead of firing people, couldn’t they just ask you to be upfront about your paid sponsorships? that way everybody wins and there is transparency
I also think certain industries just don’t align well with being a social media influencer. There are some jobs where people expect you to be serious and more corporate so get readies with me and Vlogs just don’t go with what clients expect and the image companies want to portray
@@Itsbabygirlt They 100% could, but sadly most companies, including law firms, follow the ideology of it is easier to ask for forgiveness (or punish later) than ask for permission. I honestly don't understand why it is that way, but the fact that it is that way is why I have endless work in the class action space.
Well then you'll be happy to know that in some states, signing and acknowledging the Employee Handbook, which has social media policies, are seen as contracts. I know for a while Starbucks had on that stated that they owned what was filmed in their shops.
Filming at work is the primary example of main character syndrome; call me a corporate cuck but it's called being on company time. They own you while you're on the clock, you have to do everything possible to portray the company in a good light. Off the clock, do whatever the fuck you want and your employer should mind their own business.
I work in healthcare, and I personally find it incredibly unprofessional to be on your phone at all, let alone filming, in front of or near patients.
Thanks for sharing! Does where you work have a specific policy about filming on the clock/social media policy? Since you work in healthcare like a lot of the nurses in the video
Businesses don’t own anybody. Company time or not.
@@wynterb9609yeah they don’t own you when I read that it made me question this person so much.
@@Enterbasicnamenere Obviously they don't own you in a literal sense. Employers are exchanging money for your time, and your physical and psychological labor. You are voluntarily forfeiting your time and physical and psychological labor from the moment you punch into work until the moment you punch out of work. During those punches, they all but own you. You're not there to be you, you're there to perform a specific set of tasks and nothing else. Does that constitute ownership? It depends. Sadly, for a lot of people, that's ownership.
@@myheartiswritingthat's sad for you
It’s common sense is to not record yourself at work. 💀
Lol, what seems common to one is not common to all
Rude nurses are always ick lol
Thank God for the great ones!
That one nurse sounds like she's more focused on making content than nursing, or at least that's how it comes across
She says it’s for education
My mom has been a nurse for 30+ years, around the age of the LPM lady. I came to her clinic job with her one time and sat in her office (which of course her manager is ok with) and during her work day she barely had time to check her phone or lounge around, and if she did come and sit down she was charting, preparing to see her next patients, filing labs, making calls, etc. Her daily screen time is less than 2 hours a day. When she works at the hospital she has more downtime but still usually is working on charts and labs and checking patients.
@@Itsbabygirltmy mom is an NP and these nursing creators do more harm than good sometimes, because some of them are not even qualified to advise on what they advise about (if what they speak on falls outside of their scope of practice). A healthcare clinician will make more of an impact helping patients or starting a website (or longer form UA-cam channel) that makes informational and researched patient education than making a TikTok. The people who see TikTok educational content show up to their appointments believing they have something that they don’t or try to tell her how to do her job.
we cant really know since we don't know the person personally
Should you record yourself at work? In my opinion, no you shouldn't there's a very fine line of what you should record and post online.
Now, if you've ASKED permission and they set rules for an example (no one else is to be in shot, only the person recording) and you follow them? Go for it, if you break them that's on you and you shouldn't be surprised if you get punished/fired for doing so.
Exactly, if you have permission then go ahead!
The moonlighting thing makes sense when you work in a job where you work with sensitive information esp as a lawyer. I work at a law firm in my country in the IT department, (I'm not in the States) , and I have a similar clause in my contract. My manager says that it poses a conflict of interest ie you can be given/offered a brand deal in exchange for Intel. We have to declare everything even a piece of gum from a client. Also in cases of law firms esp big ones clients just don't like influencers or social media like that. It's a bit of a snooty environment ngl.
Thanks so much for sharing this, really gives more context! ❤️ luckily for the lawyer in this video, social media was profitable enough where she could transition fully into it
@@Itsbabygirlt np! I'm glad she landed well
the security guard one is silly. he could’ve gotten the picture and kept his job if he didn’t feel the need to film it and post it to tiktok
I think he mostly got fired for handing out those little cards that told fans to take his picture and then send it to his personal phone number
@@Itsbabygirlttrue but if he just got the picture and kept to himself he would been ok.
@@Itsbabygirlthe said he was fired when he made a follow up video admitting to handing out the cards. Had he not done that, he probably would not have been fired as the security company wouldn’t have known. He’s dumb for that.
Worked with her she's cool but of course the "A" team is around her🎉
I agree that it really depends on the job. I'm cleaning as a side job, I work completely alone, and I kinda get the urge to film sometimes and edit it to some fun music, but not for social media, i'm not really posting much anywhere. And as long as the job gets done well and nobody else is in my video, i don't think that could be a problem. If i worked with people though, I wouldn't film anything.
That nurse just straight up showing babies just took me out, i think this is too much really...
Great video and great topic!
I’d watch your cleaning videos, maybe post it only after you’ve quit the job 😅 but yeah, time and place is so important to reading the room on what’s appropriate to record and then post
Thank you and thanks for watching 😊
this is my thought. i work completely alone at a fruit stand and sometimes it gets so slow that i feel like i might want to take some videos. but, if i was working with anyone or had customers, i would NEVER think of doing that
If I hired a cleaner for my house and they filmed content in it I would fire them. It is not your space. You shouldn’t be recording either
@@katelynwortman4180 thankfully I don’t work in people’s houses or apartments where it’s someone’s private place:) I clean staircases. So the cleaning company hired me, the owner of the whole house where others rent went to this company and purchased a service, so I go to this or that address every week or two weeks to clean. That’s why I thought of maybe filming.
@@Itsbabygirlt I might consider that😂 but it’s not much fun, just sweeping and mopping, occasionally getting rid of spiders and other dust and such. As i said in another comment, i clean staircases, sorry for not starting this earlier😁
Yeah I definitely see people on UA-cam live at work. When the manager comes to tell them to do something, they see the camera and it usually looks like they're struggling to change what they say and how they have to say it.
I’m guessing the manager doesn’t want to go viral for being a bad/rude boss
I think nurse John is okay because he's not actually at the hospital and his is lighthearted and funny. He never goes to deep with topics or makes offensive jokes about people's private information. But the rest of them.... Yeah, that's doing to much.
Yeah, nurse John is cool, he’s mostly a comedy page
9:59 you’re not a content creator. You’re a nurse who wants to be famous for being a nurse.
"I'm not the only one" she calls her job a dump and uses the excuse "they do it to" my god
With the nurse at 8:55, I don't understand why she can't figure out why filming in the hospital, where anything and anyone in the background could eventually be seen/zoomed in on, is wrong. And then to say that, no matter what, she'll always make nursing content at her job? Yeah, she needs to be fired
@@Wilma.Flintstone she says she never shows any patient or any private information
That "teacher" from Texas was telling kids to lie to their parents and hide things from them. She deserved to be fired for more than just a Tik Tok.
That Popeyes restaurant was NASTY. DEPT OF HEALTH NEEDED BIG TIME
Some of these videos are harmless and honestly helpful. Every time I’ve gotten a new job I look up the position and can see a full day routine. It helps me see what a day of work would be like. But some of these are actually ridiculous to record and post publicly! The caption of the Gucci post was insane! Acting like you would steal from a luxury brand is definitely warranted for firing 😂. It’s funny and something I might say PRIVATELY to friends! 😂The Joanne Fabrics was worse filming himself threaten customers was fireable just irl.🤦🏽♀️
Yeah, it can be super helpful if you want to learn about the job or the industry and I think people just like knowing other peoples business, which is why content like this keeps getting made
It's just not professional. It means you're doing your personal business during paid working hours, and that simply violates literally every work contract.
Thanks for watching😊
What I hate about social media is that the internet really does take it too far. It’s not enough that we can just get a laugh out of something or talk about it for a little while.
The Internet has to talk about something in ad nauseam and to milk til its bone dry. That includes uplifting random strangers to the highest highs of fame and fortune or dragging people to the brink of suicide.
Like, my goodness, I’d be so sad if the “Hawk Tuah” girl wasn’t able to move past that because of a 10 second interview. She said a funny thing, we laughed, we can move on.
It takes the word “brand” to a whole new level. She said she doesn’t want it to be her thing and I get what she means from that. Like, yeah, that’s where is started, but give me the chance to be more than that. She looks really young so she deserves a chance to re-invent herself and catapult off of this momentum.
Or people have the “right to be forgotten” like on the case of the high heels in the club lady. There’s no need to rip someone to pieces over a video that most people don’t even know exist.
Yup, you’re right, the internet can be so unforgiving. Sometimes it feels like mob justice
Club Lady was just a cutie pie auntie. That was some crazed reaction.
Also I’m shocked not only is this not common sense, but that no one is reading the policies at their jobs like at all…
I’m guessing some places don’t make a big deal about it
The majority of companies have rules about how you use the company name, image, etc., on social media. People shouldn't be shocked when there are repercussions for posting videos or images made at work, especially when they are disparaging to the brand.
I think there’s not a lot of education on social media in the workplace so a lot of people are genuinely unaware or figure things out along the way
@babygirlt8938 everyone is given some type of support book, online forms to sign; most people either skim the material or just don't read through it at all.
I always keep my work life hidden from social media. The last thing I was people to know is where I work and what I do. Setting boundaries is important and this is no exception. Social media is a cesspool and no one needs to know what you do.
True, but now you have people becoming investigators and sending your social media to your boss/HR
I've worked for a lot of places as someone in 30s, I've been laid off once because a project ended. But I've never been fired from a place. I find it very difficult to get fired. Like you have to go out of your way to screw up or someone in power has it out for you or something.
Thanks for watching! 😊 what about the people you were working with? Did they ever get fired?
Weird, I'm in my 40s & have seen people illegally fired in at least 5 industries.
@@picahudsoniaunflocked5426yeah my mom was illegally fired because she didn’t fit their brand of a minority worker, despite them claiming to be inclusive lol
The JoAnn fabrics one was just kinda cringe and not necessary...dunno why you would work in retail and think you could just say whatever on the loud speaker with customers still in the building.
He messed around and found out lol
Honestly i would bet money there were no customers in the building, and that they just got done closing up and decided to have a bit of fun before the lights in the store turned off automatically. Keep that joke between you and the other closers though.
@@Psychwriteify yeah, he’s got a good sense of humor but he didn’t need to post it
I was just talking about this with someone the other day. People who live in cities suffer from the same exact syndrome just because it is popular to be on the Internet doesn’t mean that people center their businesses around the Internet. A lot of these bigger corporations have learned that influencers don’t garner them any money And it’s only been beneficial for the influencer. With that being said if an employee is fired by a company cause they’re posting on social media it’s time for everybody to backtrack to elementary school about 20 years ago when we learned what you post on the Internet can affect your job. It’s almost like people just aren’t thinking at all. Just because someone else is doing it doesn’t mean you can do it too we need to bring that back. Too many people see someone else doing it and say oh I can do it too when in fact no you cannot
There’s a lot of herd mentality of just because other people are doing it, I can do it too. but you never really know what agreements people have that allows them to record at work or do whatever
I learned my lesson about mixing work and social media when a coworker ratted me out for insulting my manager on my _MySpace blog_ all the way back in 2006. I almost got fired and that was more than enough for me to set very firm boundaries between my online life and my work life from then on. Socials 100% private, no more mentions of my job, I wouldn't even add coworkers anymore after that. I FAFO with a lot of things, but not my livelihood. The only time it's acceptable to make videos at work is if you're the company's social media manager, if you're recording workplace harassment, or documenting violations or unsafe working conditions. Like the Popeye's roach lady- she was in the right. But otherwise I don't feel bad for anyone who gets fired for playing loose with company confidentiality and customer privacy.
That coworker better be the manager now
Is not posting about work to social media not just common sense? Like, forget social media policies, do people not want to be doxxed? Why have your personal details on a public social media page?
But in all seriousness, I don't understand why people don't think there's anything wrong filming and taking pictures at work and posting them publically on social media. I've worked in retail, nursing and corporate; all of those jobs have had social media policies. I just assume everywhere I work has a social media policy and don't post about work.
Also on the topic of hygiene with touching phones and patients, you're absolutely correct (at least in Australia where I'm from). Hand Hygiene Australia dictates the 5 moments of hand hygiene: before touching a patient, before a procedure, after a procedure/contact with body fluids/infection risk, after touching a patient, after touching patient surroundings.
If you got caught filming patients, whether they're able to consent or unable due to age, consciousness or mental state, you would be fired on the spot in both public and private hospitals here and you risk losing your AHPRA registration as well (healthcare worker registration for Australia, it's all publically viewable on AHPRA but registration and complaints are submitted and governed by/to regulatory bodies for your profession like the Nursing and Midwifery Board or Pharmacy Guild).
What seems like common knowledge or common sense to one person isn’t common sense to another person :/
@@Itsbabygirlt I mean, I'm pretty sure internet safety became part of the school curriculum in the late 2000s or early 2010s by the time I finished primary school and even then, my primary school had a massive computer lab and weekly computer classes possibly since the late 90s when I was born or at least in 2001 when Windows XP was released (older sibling went to the same school so I got to hear all about it). We even had cyberbullying awareness classes or speakers. When there were actively issues with cyberbullying like on Ask FM either across multiple schools or ours specifically, they would amp up this anti cyberbullying stuff. It didn't stop the bullies, I should know, but people were at least aware of internet safety and all of those people who used to publicly show off how cool they were by posting frequent public pictures of their life to FB and Insta, to deal with normal teenage insecurity, ended up going fully private as adults so you know that it works, just not always at the time they learn it.
I know the American education system isn't great, but surely they teach internet safety!
ok but 16:00 is actually funny and if you are still in the store 15 minutes after closing you suck anyway and have no business complaining loooool
😂 it was a little funny
agree thats the kinda thing i would do when i am over the job, have something else lined up, and wanna go out with a bang
That SECURITY GUARD, should’ve gotten fired! He can get compromised easily! FYI: Usually security doesn’t even like those events & the people involved
What's up, never seen your content before but this was interesting. I sympathize with some of these and don't sympathize with others. TikTok is a horrible app to open at work in general, and it should be common sense not to film at work. Very new gen thing to do in general.
@@CamJames thank you (I’m new-ish)! Love your work 😊
Yeah, social media and work clash because social media is about individuality and being your authentic self, but with work it’s all about conformity and adhering to rules. But a lot of people are not making the distinction and are treating work like an extension of themselves which they can share online
I work at the corporate level for a national brand and would absolutely never record at or about work.
Companies go to great lengths to build their image and reputation over decades and they desire to control their narrative.
We have a very strict policy against employees advertising our brand. Basically, it has to be approved by our Marketing Dept.
What “influencers” dont understand is that established companies are not beholden to social media because their brand was established before the advent of social media.
So, in their eyes, it’s supplemental, not a primary driver of sales.
Interesting, thanks for sharing 😊
I’m all about quiet quitting (AKA, just doing your job and nothing else), but there’s JUST doing your job and then there’s genuine workplace laziness.
If you can record yourself being the main character, you’re not even doing the job you got hired to do. And the worst part is that it’s your coworkers, your peers, who have to pick up your slack. That isn’t okay and, yes, you should be reprimanded or fired for it.
There’s also the fact that your coworkers are there to work, not be recorded. The customers are there for your services, not to be background noise for your videos.
Now, outside of work? Do what you want. It isn’t your job’s business what you do outside of work, unless you’re constantly trash talking the company you work for.
Oh please they knew about the policies, none of them are victim and they deserved to get fired.
One common rule to most work places is to “NOT USE YOUR PERSONAL PHONE WHILE WORKING”
Not all places have that policy
Hello! This is my first video from you and it’s great :) thanks for your hard work! As for the subject matter I wonder if people do this (vent on social media, joke about work, etc) because they don’t have as many close friends? I say this as someone who is very impacted by the “loneliness epidemic” and my husband is my friend group ☠️ I think people lack others to vent to sometimes or maybe they want to feel special/important, just like we all do 🤷 I understand being mad, I understand not thinking, I don’t really understand putting my own business on social media instead of going to my work to tell them my problems or to a close friend if the job won’t listen/wont do anything
Hii, thanks for your kind words! I appreciate you watching ❤️
This is an interesting angle, I do think because social media is so accessible and can bring you closer to others, -even if it’s online -for a lot of people it’s a great avenue to share personal things because you may get feedback and support. The problem is when it goes viral when you weren’t expecting it to because you only have a few hundred followers so you may have been a little too honest
I started a side business. I told my company before signing the contract. Then I contacted HR once I started working. They agree that me making more money with a beauty business does not violate company's guidelines. Because these companies are crazy! I needed everything written and validated
@@EspritsFantomes that’s so smart! Good luck on your side business 🫶
That was very smart!
If you're frustrated with a job, you vent to a close, trusted person or a therapist, not the entire public and potential clients(?) by treating social media as your personal diary. Also, posting on social media is a me-time, personal thing. In my opinion it's only okay to do that during break time at work since that's your personal time. But I don't think employees should be fired for posting on social media on their time unless it's something obviously morally and ethically skewed. That's just ridiculous.
@@sanjanat1085 there definitely has to be some middle ground. Employees should be reasonable about what they post but employers should not have so much power where every little thing is micro analyzed
The girl who was generously gifted Gucci from her job deserved to be fired for captioning it like that
Right? Then gonna say, "It was just my sense of humor" like the store was her TikTok bestie.
The attorney is way different tho because whatever law she was practicing by moonlighting you create an unconscious bias and this can cause issues for cases. It can also be a legal issue by accepting money from a source that could be a client’s competitor at the firm. There’s so many things she is opening herself up to and the firm up to by doing that
If you think with your brain…
The answer is always NO! 😊
Lol 😂
Yess glad I caught this new one to watch during my Sunday coffee on the porch ☺️

Those nurses 😡
Just an unfortunate situation for everyone
13:15 I’m guessing that the roaches were employees then? 🤔
She’s showing the kitchen and the other employees plus the cockroaches
So, I work retail as a supervisor, and we have annual compliance training that outlines very specifically what is acceptable and not acceptable phone/social media use at work, which basically boils down to: Don't. And this is for a convenience store where you can buy your toilet paper and snacks. I would be shocked if industries like medical/nursing didn't have similar or even stricter policies than retail, especially with the sensitive health information they have access to. That nurse like "well everyone else is doing it" girl, just because everyone else is doing it doesn't make it right. If you see everyone running red lights, doesn't mean you're not going to hit someone when you do it too.
I think the sketches people do about workplace situations are fun and funny. Those are clearly done as parody and not on work time (which, another thing about filming at work, how much work time is going into setting up cameras etc? That's definitely time theft to be doing that on the clock).
@@Persewna4 thanks for sharing! ❤️ it seems your job may want to get ahead of any potential problems in the future. Unfortunately, not all companies do that which I think leaves room for people to make social media decisions based on their own personal opinion

I like to search for certain job positions on TikTok cause I know people post about their work day and it gives me an idea of what it’s like working there 😂
Yeah, it can be very helpful and educational
Do you ever wonder how people found out what certain jobs were like before social media? Clue: it involved talking to people. 🤷♀️
Everywhere I’ve worked has a “no phones” rule. Valid firing
Edit: it’s best to assume every job has the same rules (just like schools have), so you can get that bag and not get fired. If you want to create work related content, put in some hard work and be an Etsy seller and record yourself making your products for awhile
@@KittyBGaming not an Etsy seller 😂 I’d watch that content though
I think younger people have a generally correct attitude of screw this job a lot of the time which changes their relationship to how they work.
What can be missed when you think like that is that some jobs are genuinely important even (and sometimes often) badly paid or not respected jobs.
Watching the security guard guy my brain was just screaming at me because there was a literal terrorist plot at a TS concert recently. Like man you have a real job to do and professionalism is super important here.
My first good job was way lower stakes than security but it involved being around people who could be famous and day one everyone knows not to act like this. You’ve got a job to do so do it you’re not a fan.
Nothing wrong with being a fan of T.S but he chose the wrong place to let that show
I’m sorry but I will always advocate against filming yourself or others at work unless for legal means
Thanks for watching😊
not being able to discuss your work life online at all is major corporate overreach. I don't agree with filming on the premises unless you are trying to be a whistleblower.
but if I do not expose privileged information or sensitive materials, I should be allowed to discuss what I spend literally 1/3 of my life doing.
True. It’s unfortunate that because of company policy they can pick and choose what they want their employees to share online even if it’s harmless content and if you go against that , it means losing your job or facing some type of punishment
You can argue if it goes viral it can cause problems for corporations that they don’t want to deal with so they’ll just take the easier route and replace you. I mean why talk about it where the public can blow it up at all. Not to say don’t talk about work but control who can see it, dms, private accounts, discord chats ect.

It’s not surprising that they were filming at work, their first reaction after getting fired was to pull out their camera and tell the world. I enjoy social media but I do feel like there needs to be boundaries on what we do and don’t post.
Boundaries are definitely needed, especially in corporate settings
At most jobs employees are not allowed to have any use of a phone or electronic device, unless it's for a job related task... That is just common sense.
This is such a well made video, and illustrates many valid points. My company makes it very clear that you are NOT to post anything company related in ANY form - ever. If for no other reason, a company would be valid for dismissing an employee for creating content during the time that they are being compensated. I do feel bad for the attorney, but I am willing to bet that there is a clause in her contract regarding any outside employment. If she were not being paid by sponsors, she could possibly have had an argument. The paint store clearly missed out on an opportunity. What customer would not want to see custom paint possibilities❓ If you need your salary, I would gently suggest to not film at work, or while being paid by a separate entity.
Thanks so much 🫶
What gives me the "ick" is going out in public and seeing people recording their TikToks and stuff, or constantly taking selfies, or recording themselves doing something embarrassing, or especially others who didn't ask to be recorded.
I deleted my social media apps, but kept UA-cam. It counts, but loosely. I usually just watch science stuff, but wound up here.
Bottom line is I don't like social media culture bleeding into our public spaces. I watched it become normalized over my lifetime, but it used to be better. Our bar is so low these days, and yes, it does affect the workplace, and your job performance to mentally be somewhere else and staring at your screen.
At that point, just get a remote work job to work at your physical job, and at least get compensated for the "multitasking" 🤔
I’m a nurse, and if I saw another nurse filming a patient, especially a BABY, I’d go straight to the charge nurse/supervisor.
That’s out of the question
Your pfp matches so well lol
Most Companies have a clause in your contract telling you not to film at work. People sign things without reading.
Yeah, you're not being paid to be on your phone / social media at work. Social media has ruined humanity in SO many ways. We peaked in the 2000s, y'all. It's all downhill now. >.<
That nurse talking about God having her back.
God ain't gonna pay your bills, gurl.
It’s downhill for now, but we will hopefully peak again, Lol 😂
It's disrespectful to the ancestors who got us here to give up & pretend this is the worst time ever. There have been many more "worse times" for humans & depending on where you are in the world, now might actually be pretty awful. But if you're privileged enough to watch this video & comment on it you're not one of the people stuck in "the worst time ever". Get some perspective & do right by the people who got you here by living your life in a way that leaves the world better for those to come.
Sorry if I sound cranky, I'm really tired of people saying this is the worst time ever + I haver never once seen people who say that lift a finger to help. It's as if by saying it's just "downhill now", they give themselves permission to not care or try.
Also this is my first video from you! Great job! I kno it took a lot of time and effort so i just wanted to say that its very much appreciated and you got my sub ❤❤
This was so lovely to read! Appreciate your kind words, Thank you ❤️❤️
I’m so glad those nurses got fired in the end. Didn’t they get fired? Ugh
The nurses at the beginning? No, they were not fired
it said on the post "former employees" so i wasn't entirely sure whether they were fired or not
There’s nothing to talk about! I think it’s so crazy to film at work! It’s so inappropriate 😅 especially when you film others without their explicit permission. I’m tired of the normalized exploiting of each other! It’s frustrating that people feel justified to start filming even if you’re uncomfortable. I know this is a bit of a separate convo but it’s related to
A lot of times, there’s a lack of consent on whether you can record others which is a huge problem
Exactly. One of my "icks" is people recording out in public. A couple years ago some teens came up to me in Walmart with their phones out, obviously setting up a Tiktok prank with me as the victim, no idea what they were planning to do but I just turned and power-walked away. Me rushing out to buy cat food at 10pm is not "content" damnit. I know it's legal, and maybe I'm finally reaching the "damn kids" stage of life but the thought of appearing in some stranger's video when I'm just minding my business out somewhere makes me extremely uncomfortable.
@@daughterofsekhmet81 no that’s a totally understandable reaction! Being filmed without permission isn’t funny or ok. I agree not everything we do is content, we’re just trying to get by…
Wow, brilliant Orginal video hun. I love it 😻
@@walterwhite1 This means a lot coming from the Walter White 😂💗
I feel like this should be obvious maybe that's the Millenial in me talking but I would NEVER film myself at work. I would absolutely not do that. It's a professional venue. There's nothing I need on the Internet from work not to mention I don't want people to know where I work that's dangerous!
It exposes you to doxxing for sure, really dangerous
Lack of impulse control, professionalism and poor judgment. The fact that some of them try to justify it and their “me “ syndrome supercedes company policy is all the more reason they needed to be fired.
The main point of this video is to not record yourself working unless you are a content creator and then you must put your phone away and actually WORK.
To me this just seems ridiculous on the amount of people who whine about getting fired but they are in full glam makeup and most of them are in their cars, so they seem relatable, unfortunately they missed the point that if you are at an office building then you should not even have the OPPORTUNITY OR TIME for recording yourself.
If you have enough time to record yourself working, then you are obviously not in a high demand job. Most people who work are there to work and not play social media star. If you are recording yourself, then your job is not a high priority job that requires 100% of your time working, meaning you will be the first one laid off when the company has problems.
Also, I never even had time to actually spend time working on setting up my phone to record myself. This type of thing is NOT PROFESSIONAL and you will eventually get laid off.
These videos have shown me some people are really good at multitasking
Let’s be honest . These people record at work knowing that it could lead them to trouble, so that when they do, they can turn it into a clout chasing video . They’re comfortable enough in life, that they’re completely fine with potentially losing their jobs
This is an interesting angle to consider 🤔
I’m not for posting online “days in the life of…” but those types of videos are helpful in that they give insight into the jobs people might be interested in working. Most of the time, I think people get fired for posting said videos because companies don't want people outside of their organization knowing about when they break laws, violate ethics, or simply don’t follow rules. That Popeye’s Tik Tok is a prime example.
@@kaylawalker5265 yeah they can be super educational and informative. And I agree, companies are and will always look out for their best interests
Ppl need to realize that we are all expendable. There are soooooo many ppl in this world, and we just can't think that the company we work for can't do anything without you. Everyone is replaceable! Unless you have a rare talent that your company absolutely cannot exist without you, don't even think about it. Especially in today's economy where finding a job is damned difficult!
A word!
That lawyer lady looked beautiful in her dresses though. Like a work of art
That’s sweet of you to say, Tom 😊
I have to go to the hospital multiple times a year for various health conditions and honestly, if I knew my nurse was “making content” while at work, regardless of how well they adhered to HIPAA rules, I’d feel unsafe. I get that it’s a hard job but being distracted while doing it isn’t the answer.
Wishing you well in regards to your health! ❤️
