When the year starts, everyone anticipates it will be good. People make resolutions and hope to reach specific goals. The resolutions may range from buying a car, attending the gym, finishing studies or advancing your career.

No one wants to start the year bad. But unfortunately for one woman, that was the case. @thengyngcuka took to her TikTok account and revealed that she lost her job on 24 January 2024.

In the video she shared, she can be seen in her workplace, shutting down the work laptop, seemingly preparing to give it back to her employer. In another part, she captured a moment when she walked out of the building and onto a bus going home.
