Ex-Ikea worker Scott Seiss gains 1.6 million followers on TikTok by posting funny videos about working in the retail industry.
TikTok is home to numerous creators that make you laugh until tears roll out of your eyes. @Scott Seiss is one of those creators, who has managed to gain a huge following through his funny and witty videos describing the work environment in the retail industry.
Many times we go inside a store and ask the salesgirl to show us the clothing section while she is on a break or asks her to keep the store open for 10 more minutes just because we are running late. These all are unethical mistakes that we should not be doing.
These videos can definitely be a learning opportunity for everyone about knowing what to say and not to say to the individuals working as sales representatives in stores. For some reason, we think that it is their job to help us out with whatever we need, but in reality, they have a job contract where many things are not under their job description, especially asking them something while they are on a lunch break.

He also often takes a dig at managers in the retail industry, who impose their job description role on employees while the employees silently comply because they want to keep their jobs.
His fun and informative take on important issues like the lack of affordable housing and employment opportunities is a good way to spread awareness about the volatility of these issues, along with educating the youth about them.
Attempting to return something while not having the receipt for it and just forcing the cashier to make an exception is something that most of us have done in our lives. But we should not be proud of it. It actually is quite unethical to just waste the time of an employee, because of our negligence.
