In a surprising turn of events, a young woman, known as Akorede on social media and @korrxss on TikTok, recently shared her unfortunate experience of being fired from her new job at the renowned luxury department store, Harrods, even before commencing her first shift.



The incident, captured in a viral video, has sparked discussions and raised eyebrows among online audiences.

Akorede, who had previously gained attention for an enthusiastic video detailing her excitement about joining the prestigious UK-based luxury store, found herself in a completely different narrative in her follow-up video. In the initial clip, she expressed a sense of elevated social status, attributing it to her employment at Harrods and playfully challenging others with the question, "I'm dealing with the richest of the rich, who are you dealing with [giggles]?"

However, the subsequent video took a somber tone as Akorede shared the unexpected turn of events. She revealed that she received notice of termination from Harrods even before embarking on her first shift. Expressing disappointment, she recounted the sequence of events and speculated on who might have shared the footage that led to her dismissal.

Akorede reflected on the experience and conveyed a valuable lesson she learned from the ordeal – the importance of keeping good news to oneself and refraining from sharing it on the internet. In her own words, "I got fired! Before I even did my first shift, I got fired. Someone must have sent the video 'cos I don't know how they must have found it. I took that video after I attended my induction; I've not even attended my first shift. That was really sad. I learnt a really valuable lesson; don't ever tell good news to people or the internet, keep it to yourself. Upon reflection, that was kind of a shitty video; I was just joking and was just excited."

The incident serves as a cautionary tale about the potential consequences of sharing work-related content on social media and highlights the need for discretion when navigating the intersection of personal and professional life online.
