We are happy to be back with another viral TikTok video that we'll be diving into, and today it's about a woman who went to TikTok to talk about how she was fired after giving her two weeks' notice. Now, this story didn't actually turn out how she probably thought it would because the responses were a little mixed.

We love taking a look at viral videos that get a lot of attention, especially controversial attention at that. So that's exactly why we wanted to take a look at this, and also, we think some of the comments might educate other people going through this or thinking of doing this.

So, this video is of a woman who comes on there to talk about how she put in her two weeks, but her boss actually fired her. She even tried to tell the boss that she wasn't done with the work she was doing, but her boss told her that someone else could do it.

If you want to hear more about this and see the full story, then you'll want to keep on reading as we dive into this and show the original TikTok, as well as some awesome comments left below it.

This woman came to TikTok to express her situation that happened at her job when she decided to put in her two weeks notice.

She got a lot of attention when it came to her video because she claimed that she was wrongfully terminated, but many people tried to explain that this might not be the case. She explains that she put in her two weeks' notice on a Wednesday, but then they fired her on that upcoming Friday.

Here's the video of her explaining the situation and going into details about what happened.

She explains that her boss went up to her and told her that because she'd only been there for 6-7 weeks that she didn't need to work there after that day. She goes on to say  “Make sure you have an emergency fund before you quit,” she says in closing.

“I’m going to go email my boss and ask for severance pay.”

However, this statement is what made people jump straight to the comments and let her know that severance pay might not be available to her in her situation.

She posted a part two video on the situation after she tried to find out more on whether or not it was justified.

She also goes on to explain that she'd been at her job for two years but only working on that particular part for 6-7 weeks. Ultimately she ended the statement by saying that she's in an at-will state and so her job could technically fire her at-will no matter what the circumstances are.

People started coming in with the comments and they were pretty funny.

The comments also weren't very hopeful of her getting severance pay.

I think a lot of people were shocked that she put in a 2 weeks notice without another job lined up.

This probably would've been her best bet because clearly it came back on her.

I don't know the rules but people seemed to not think she was gonna get severance pay.

Some people were only concerned about what kind of pizza she was eating.

Again, people just weren't hopeful.

Well, this was an interesting story. Clearly, she didn't get her severance pay, and I think this is a lesson to us all never to put in a notice if you're not prepared to get fired.

Ultimately a lot of states are at will so before doing what she did, just check to see if you're in the clear.
