00:00:00.000 I stumbled upon a video that I think may be one of the craziest videos I've ever seen.
00:00:04.500 In it, a woman who I think has had a few too many glasses of white wine 0.97
00:00:08.100 breaks out her phone and starts ranting her frustrations and her plans
00:00:12.460 to take down and destroy the lives of people who supported the Trucker Convoy in Ottawa.
00:00:17.440 Basically, this woman is a recruiter, an HR person, 0.58
00:00:20.320 and she talks about her strategy to track every single person who posted
00:00:24.920 about their support of the Trucker Convoy on social media
00:00:28.220 and get you fired for cause from your job.
00:00:30.880 Just watch this crazy, crazy video.
00:00:33.500 ...rights and freedom that would tell you that.
00:00:36.060 But since you seem to forget that, and you're all loud and proud with your big thoughts
00:00:40.340 and your big ideas and you want to whatever and set up hot tubs in Ottawa,
00:00:46.540 I'm a recruiter.
00:00:48.180 It's a small, small, small industry.
00:00:50.820 Smaller than you'd think.
00:00:51.980 Same with HR.
00:00:52.640 So, if you're looking for a job, or maybe trying to keep a job...
00:00:58.300 First of all, look at those eyes. 1.00
00:01:00.300 That is a crazy person. 1.00
00:01:02.600 That is a total nutter. 1.00
00:01:05.160 ...maybe trying to keep a job. 0.79
00:01:07.340 Maybe.
00:01:08.220 Just maybe.
00:01:10.440 Think about what you're putting on social media.
00:01:14.260 Again, freedom fighters.
00:01:19.100 I know you're not really big with stats and, you know, facts aren't your thing, you know.
00:01:25.460 But, what I can tell you, what is a fact, is that recruiters talk.
00:01:30.600 And recruiters, like the majority of Canada, don't agree with you.
00:01:35.720 Do you know what that means?
00:01:37.100 Do you have any guesses?
00:01:38.000 Any guesses what that means?
00:01:39.020 What that means, is that if you need a job, you might not get one.
00:01:43.600 If you want to keep a job, you might not get to do that.
00:01:47.500 So, again, I'm new to this TikTok app.
00:01:50.580 Can someone tell me, I'm guessing that she's got some sort of filter over her eyes? 1.00
00:01:55.340 Well, I'm actually, I'm hoping she does, because this is just absolutely freaky.
00:02:00.240 You know what else HR's good at?
00:02:03.600 Documentation.
00:02:05.320 You know what that means? 1.00
00:02:06.620 You want to be an asshole? 1.00
00:02:08.080 Oh, we document it. 1.00
00:02:09.880 We give you a couple tries.
00:02:11.300 Then what do we do? 0.97
00:02:12.240 We terminate you.
00:02:13.460 With cause. 0.94
00:02:14.540 If we're so lucky.
00:02:15.900 If not, we give you the minimum allowed by law.
00:02:20.420 Either way.
00:02:21.720 Best of luck to you.
00:02:23.740 Recruiters are watching.
00:02:24.900 HR is watching.
00:02:26.120 Everywhere. 0.99
00:02:26.920 And we hate you. 1.00
00:02:28.260 We hate you so much. 1.00
00:02:30.040 Oh, we hate you. 0.99
00:02:30.780 How nice.
00:02:31.220 And we think we can't do anything.
00:02:32.460 But we can.
00:02:33.980 We have the power.
00:02:36.340 So not only is this woman quite literally drunk, she's also drunk on her own power, or
00:02:41.020 so she thought.
00:02:41.860 Because she didn't warn us, she didn't tell us, to be careful what you put on social media.
00:02:45.800 And she also said that HR and recruiters will document what you're doing, and document what
00:02:51.220 you're posting, and they will fire you for cause if they want to.
00:02:54.560 They will ruin your life if they want to.
00:02:56.120 Well, it turns out that this woman wasn't very careful about what she posted on social
00:03:00.940 media.
00:03:01.440 It got documented, it got recorded, and it got immediately put up on Twitter.
00:03:05.060 And it went viral, of course.
00:03:06.500 And even better, her former employers distanced themselves from her on Twitter.
00:03:11.760 And the regulatory board that oversees recruiters in Ontario, the Ontario Human Rights
00:03:16.640 Professional Association, immediately also distanced themselves from this woman.
00:03:20.540 So this is what her former employer wrote on Twitter.
00:03:23.780 We are aware of the video from a former Canadian contractor about her personal views and approach
00:03:28.020 to HR, which we do not support.
00:03:30.360 She has not provided services for our family-owned company since 2019.
00:03:34.080 We do not condone this behavior as it does not represent our company values.
00:03:37.580 Now, I certainly hope it wouldn't represent your company values.
00:03:40.760 And I can't for the life of me understand why she wouldn't be a part of your company now.
00:03:44.200 She appears to be a perfectly reasonable, totally normal HR person, right?
00:03:48.940 And the Human Rights Professional Association wrote on Twitter,
00:03:53.180 HRPA is aware of this video post by one of its regulated members and does not condone or
00:03:58.040 endorse in any way the statements made about HR practice therein.
00:04:01.960 Further, HRPA is reviewing this matter to determine if there has been a breach of its
00:04:06.220 rules of professional conduct.
00:04:07.520 Well, I'm really sorry for this woman who appears may have just ruined her professional 1.00
00:04:12.420 life because she posted something on social media.
00:04:14.960 What goes around comes around, lady. 0.96
00:04:16.680 Maybe next time you should be more careful about what you post on social media.
