This morning I was scrolling down TikTok as I usually do while having my coffee. Nothing unusual. I was liking videos, laughing, etc. Now, although I'm a responsible adult who has a job I have quite an absurd taste in humor, so when a video of a poorly animated character dancing over a lime green background on top of an equally poorly animated phone, with the music being a robot-like autotuned voice singing "whyyyYY do yoU call mEe without texting me first?? can't yOuu see I'm an anxious lil baby?? am I overreacting? mAAybe but ring ring without previous notice stresses me out" I thought it was hilarious and perfect to share on my Instagram stories. My only followers are my friends who are used to seeing me uploading weird stuff, and most of the time they find it funny too, so there was no problem, so I shared it and went on with my day.
This was in the morning, and the rest of my day was quite busy with having to clean around the house, cook lunch, and work, so I didn't pick up my phone until around 7 pm. When I finally did I realized my mistake.
Turns out I didn't switch accounts on Instagram before posting, and I had shared it in the rather popular, formal, professional and serious account I use for work have where I talk to clients. And it stayed up for more than 8 hours. I deleted it, but not without checking how many people saw it, with the results being hundreds, including regular clients.
TL;DR My childish sense of humor made me lose followers and clients, and now I don't want to use TikTok ever again.
