He’s expecting a baby — and hopefully, a whole lot of job offers.


One laborer named Tommy — a.k.a. @inothungry — recently headed to TikTok with a tale of employment woe, revealing that his boss fired him days after learning he and his girlfriend would be welcoming a child.


“My girlfriend’s pregnant,” he can be heard saying in the now-deleted clip.


“Oh wow, I would never have guessed that,” his boss, Taylor, replied with a pained laugh, before noting that a baby “may affect work.”




Despite her reassurances for him to “go enjoy PTO,” he returned to work with an unpleasant surprise — the loss of his job. During their video call, he attempted to get clarity on the reasons for his axing  — “But why?” he asked during the phone call — but he received nothing more than HR jargon.


“The role was no longer needed,” a woman, presumably the HR rep, explained, adding that the decision “was determined with the business leaders of the ways of working and how the team has evolved.”


“I just told Taylor last week that my girlfriend’s pregnant,” he added.


While several viewers were taken aback by this brazen firing — “Back stabbed for being upfront and honest, seems legit the way this world is working today,” wrote @Old_SchoolEddie — others hoped that Tommy took his former employers to the cleaners.


“I believe he has a nice big fat juicy lawsuit to bring against them,” replied @pypolk.


“Wouldn’t be no company when I’m through!” added @qtpikiara.


We can only hope that alongside his new baby, Tommy got one hell of a settlement check — he most definitely deserves it.
