Never Expected TikTok to Cost Me My Job #tiktok #fired #realstory

I can tell you when I knew I was going to get fired. And it was November 2022 and I'm visiting my brother in Washington. We're there with my ex wife and kid and so like we still travel even though we were, we were getting divorced. And I log into TikTok and he convinced me to create a TikTok account. I'm like, okay. But I never had anything as Brian Galky, everything was subtle skills. All of a sudden it started saying all these people I knew saw my video and what had happened is they made a change to the algorithm that if you had my phone number in your phone, they were showing you my videos. So I went from being subtle skills, never had my name anywhere to all of a sudden all these customers I work with, coworkers, everything are seeing the videos. And I was like, I know this won't end well. Then a week later I was fired and the paperwork said like repetitive, poor performance. And that's after 21 and a half years, never having a single HR write up, just getting rewarded on the company wide call for winning another state contract and things in September.
