A woman has sparked a debate after secretly recording a nine-minute video of herself getting laid off from her job.

Brittany Pietsch shared a video to TikTok on 12 January to document how she was let go from her job at Cloudflare, a computer and network security company. At the start of the nine-minute video, she noted that she had a feeling the conversation was coming, since her “coworkers [had] been getting random 15-minute calls all day”. She also specified that her close friend from work had been laid off “30 minutes” before she started recording that call.
