Haven’t read the thread, but am I the only one who thinks it’s likely fake?

She got her social media attention with the six million views though.

Perhaps if she wasn't making tik tok videos all day long, and actually did some work, she would still have a job.

BTW, I know WFH jobs are more cozy, but have some self-respect. I get dressed for work every morning even though I might not be leaving the house. Starting to think I might be the only one.

Most of these jobs were fluff and didn't do much anyway.

Honestly 50% of HR employees could be let go and the company will perform better…..especial the DEI “specialists”.

Our organization is so layered that 250 credentialed people applied and only 3 were hired last year.

We need 150 more but the system is too laborious. When you offer, it may take months to get someone on board.

Is getting laid off by email a thing? I get in person might be tough if you’re a mega company like Amazon. But I mean, not even a phone call?

Eta : as others have said, I’m thinking it’s fake

Yes. All Tech companies have been doing it this way because they have been doing like 10K people at a time.

They lock them out then email them saying bye.

You’re not the only one. I work from home and shower and put on decent clothes every day. I can’t do the ‘work from Pajamas’ thing unless it’s only a few hours on weekend, but those are very very rare.

How do people like her have jobs in the first place?

Mental health walk?

How do these people even exist?

I take a a walk several nights a week after work but I don’t film my work day, have a VLOG, or call it a “mental health walk.’ I call it a ‘I need to get the frick out of my house’ walk.
