A first-person anecdote from a YouTube video by Worldwide Ty about quitting a 9-to-5 job. The speaker recounts calling a friend after quitting and describes an employer warning that falling asleep on the job is intolerable because, in that childcare-adjacent role, children might hurt staff and might require physical restraint—raising safety and job-appropriateness concerns.
I called my boy, I said, bruh, I just quit this job. I need you to come get me. He said, I got you. When I say bad, the lady said, so? Yeah, so just so you know, she looking at me, she said, so just so you know, there will be absolutely no toleration tolerance of falling asleep on the job. So I'm like, cool, man. You know you can't fall asleep on a job. That's like job 101. That shit's chasing me. Why she even saying this? So even right then she said, because if you fall asleep on a job, one of the kids might hurt you. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Am I at a prison? What do you mean one of the kids might hurt me if I fall asleep right on the kids. Then she said, sometimes we might have to restrain the kids. It might get little hostile. You have to restrain them.
