Downfall of Entitled Influencers – Losing Your Relatability

honestly, I think everyone under 18 wanting to be "an influencer" is the same thing as practilcally everyone in the early 2000's or 90's wanting to be "a singer" or "an actor"

i think the most surprising part of this video was finding out that she was only 24 💀

my gf is a postal worker who works 12 hour shifts, 6 days a week. she is in so much pain by the end of her shifts that she physically can't walk. also she is literally keeping our society functioning. and yet she never tells anyone her job is "harder" than someone else's, because its a dick move. it's that simple

this Mikaela girl really has some audacity. While shes filming herself do makeup with her designer handbags in the background, nurses and doctors still work in understaffed hospitals since the beginning of the pandemic. My mom is a nurse for home health care and she has had less and less sleep and time off since the pandemic and even now. Mikaela needs to go outside “people are dying kim”

"Content creation is harder than your 9-5". Imagine being yelled at by random people daily, running around for 9 hours to give people their food before they complain, taking a five minute break to cry in the bathroom, have raw and red hands from washing your hands in nearly boiling water every three minutes, being paid minimum wage and still relying on tips in order to actually eat that day, and having to touch people's dirty and disgusting trash only to get sick frequently because some customers are pigs and can't resist that they're sick so they'll cough up a storm and leave their germs everywhere that you have to touch in order to clean. Imagine working in a mom and pop restaurant. I would 100% rather be an influencer in order to pay the bills.

I find it really irritating when influencers feel entitled to call their work harder than other jobs. I am not by any means undermining their efforts, they might work hard and get stressed, but they do not have any responsibilities to anyone but themselves. The worries and stresses of actual, regular jobs usually include other people and their well being and I find it insulting that people creating tiktoks feel like their job has any actual impact on real life. I enjoy some creators and their content, but I despise those who are so out of touch of reality.

So I’m an archeologist who spends 9 to 10 hours a day doing extreme physical labor, walking miles over literal mountains, shoveling into rocks which over time causes injuries, and I’m usually without phone service miles away from a hospital should I hurt myself or have a wild animal encounter. Also, heat exhaustion is a very regular risk as well as heat stroke. Now I love my job and wouldn’t change a thing, but every time I hear an influencer say theirs is harder than most peoples I just think “you wouldn’t survive a day in my job”

As a nurse working long hours in a short staffed hospital having to hear influencers whine about how their job is so much harder…. Is not exactly making me feel empathetic. There are far better ways to show how heavy their work load is than using the “You do it for a day and see how you like it!” comment… It’ll just make the people watching turn sour on you.

Daaaaaang she’s only 24?! I thought she was like a 30-35 year old Boston mom or something she just has that vibe about her

I'm sure being an influencer or content creator is harder than it looks, but I think there's a way to express that without insinuating that your life is harder than the lives of your viewers who have much less money than you

i get that streaming and content creation can be rough, especially with chronic illness/mental health issues. but imagine having those issues, but you would lose your job for taking a week to rest and get better

These influencers are confused. The difference between them and a 9-5 is not hard work, it’s fulfillment. Someone following their creative passion and getting paid for it is in a fulfilling career, while someone working in an Amazon production line is not.

Her: try waking up at 5 and going to meeting everyday, going home at 10 pm Dr, who doesnt even get to go home: 👁👄👁 Idol, who woke up at 3 am and sleep at 12 am: 👁👄👁 Teachers, who went home at 2 pm, additional class at 8, and grading paper/plan lessons after: 👁👄👁 Construction worker, who literally exert themselves physically everyday from 8 am to 5 pm: 👁👄👁 Housewife, who spent the days cooking, cleaning, taking care of the kids, taking them to school and back, practice, helping them with homework at night, and woke up at 4 am to make breakfast for the family, all without being paid: 👁👄👁

I get up at 4:30 to work - the amount of influencers who are like "I'm up at 6am!" like the rest of us aren't? Bless their hearts.

What I don't understand is people competing to be the hardest worker....and bragging about working and having no free time. That is just a boring life

It’s getting to a point where it’s just sad to see how these influencers are so desperate.

I think a problem/insecurity many influencers have is their knowledge and guilt over knowing that they are earning way more money than the work they actually put in compared to others, this insecurity turns into a defensive mechanism where they get really salty and try very hard to make their viewers believe that they work way more than an average person or that they don't earn as much as ppl assume.

their job isn't harder than other jobs. it's hard in different ways. like i could not deal with the hate they must get or the constant need to check stats and views, but i would love the freedom to travel whenever and wherever

It’s insane how delusional some influencers are . Some of us working 9-5 jobs earn $30,000 a year some influencers make that in a MONTH. Try paying rent, bills , groceries, credit cards with $950 twice a month . Now that’s hard .

Lol my work schedule is the same as hers and I earn way less, because I'm a teacher. She needs to get over herself.
