Una TikToker compartió un anuncio de servicio público sobre el bombeo de gasolina que acaba de aprender en una estación de servicio de Costco: siempre toque el metal antes de agarrar la boquilla.
Una mujer dice que se sorprendió al saber que no tocar el metal antes de cargar la gasolina podría evitar que ocurriera una explosión desagradable en su estación de combustible local.

TikToker Nicki Andrea (@nicki_andrea) compartió un anuncio de servicio público de seguridad después de comprar gasolina en Costco, donde dice que aprendió el protocolo de seguridad adecuado para bombear gasolina.
Nicki dice en un video viral: “No sé si esto es de conocimiento común, pero pensé que lo compartiría en caso de que no lo sea y esto podría salvar la vida de alguien porque no lo sabía. Estaba comprando gasolina en Costco y yo tenía, hice lo que pones la boquilla en el auto, lo dejas correr y regresas a tu auto”.

Continuó con el consejo de bombeo de gasolina que podría salvar vidas: “Obviamente te sientas allí con el motor apagado y esperas y sales y sacas la boquilla, obtienes tu recibo y te vas”.

Nicki continúa diciendo que alguien se acercó a ella para contarle sobre el truco de seguridad: “Um, y un hombre se me acercó cuando salía de mi auto para sacar la boquilla y obtener mi recibo y me dijo que solo tenga cuidado”. Solo quiero que sepas la fricción que se produce cuando te mueves, esto puede ocurrir en ambientes fríos y secos, y algo sobre la estática que se produce cuando sales del auto… te mueves… toca cosas”.
Agregó que el hombre le dijo que debería “Asegúrese siempre de tocar algo de metal como tocar su auto, tocar algo de metal con ambas manos antes de tocar la boquilla porque esa estática puede causar una chispa que puede producir un incendio eléctrico y si toca el boquilla y literalmente podría volarte”.

Nicki parecía tan aturdida/asustada por el conocimiento que acababa de aprender que por un breve momento en su video pensó que alguien en el estacionamiento que caminaba detrás de su vehículo estaba tratando de hacerle algo a ella o a su auto: “Fue una locura. …Nunca había escuchado eso antes en mi vida, pero lo busqué y es verdad”.

Ella termina su video redoblando el dato de seguridad: “Si alguna vez vas a salir de tu auto o si te gusta tocar la boquilla y luego tocar algo más, asegúrate de tocar algo de metal y deshazte de la posibilidad de estática porque sabes que tu cabello se pone estático-ey lo que sea, todo se pone estático-ey, sé que probablemente suene como un idiota nervioso en este momento, pero toca algo de metal antes de tocar la boquilla de tu cosa de gas porque literalmente podrías volarte arriba.”

Municipio de Plymouth El Departamento de Bomberos publicó un artículo en línea que instruye a las personas sobre prácticas seguras mientras bombean gasolina para ayudar a prevenir incendios por estática, que es el fenómeno al que se refiere Nicki en su video.
Las instrucciones de seguridad del sitio dicen: “Antes de usar la bomba, toque el metal o la puerta del automóvil con la mano desnuda. Esto descargará electricidad estática en su cuerpo y evitará un posible incendio”.

El consejo continúa: “Una vez que la gasolina esté bombeando, no vuelva a entrar en su vehículo. Esto puede recargar su cuerpo con electricidad estática. Si debe volver a entrar en su vehículo, descargue la electricidad estática nuevamente antes de tocar la boquilla de la bomba”.
El artículo continúa debajo del anuncio.
Otros comentaristas que vieron el video de Nicki compartieron sus propias reglas de seguridad de la bomba de gasolina: “¡Nunca debes dejar la bomba, punto! Podría ser muy peligroso”.
Sin embargo, otros dudaron un poco, pensando que toda esta precaución adicional era innecesaria: “Quiero decir, pero honestamente, ¿cuándo fue la última vez que escuchaste que alguien se quemó en una estación de servicio?”

Un video publicado en YouTube por afiliado de noticias locales KSHB 41 describe cómo los incendios estáticos podrían resultar en una explosión en la bomba.
We’ve all made mistakes at work, but (hopefully) none this bad. This woman was just following directions, but the results were disastrous.
TikTok is here for the good: cute dog videos, inspirational quotes, tarot readings. TikTok is also here for the bad. We don’t mean bad content necessarily, but like people sharing their bad experiences. While some of them are incredibly sad, others can just make us feel a bit better about ourselves … because at least it didn’t happen to us.

That might sound harsh but you all know the feeling when you see something and you think, “At least it wasn’t me.” That is exactly what we thought when a woman shared how she accidentally zeroed out the inventory at her store.

Here’s what happened.
This woman accidentally zeroed out her entire store inventory!
TikTok user @2beach2surf took to the app to describe what happened to her at work that day. The video starts with her saying, “I do inventory now. I go in early and I do inventory which works out great. It’s great, right? It’s great. It’s all great. It’s all great.” It soon becomes clear that she’s being sarcastic and her day was actually not that great.

“Today is my first day to do it on my own,” she continues. “I followed my little sheet of paper. I trust that whoever made the f—— piece of paper knew what they were talking about. You would think right?”
The woman continues saying that, “I followed it to a T. Very literal. Everything that f—— piece of paper said to do, I did cause I’m a little A student … I just do what I’m told. I did everything the paperwork said including click a button. Click a button that says ‘zero all.’ It said right on the paperwork ‘click it,’ so I clicked it.”

At this point, anyone who has worked retail (or who understands what the phrase “zero all” means) is probably having a panic attack. And let me tell you, friends — that reaction is completely warranted. Watch the video to hear the whole story:
The woman then describes how she, “knew immediately that something wasn’t right,” even though she had just been following instructions. She couldn’t stop thinking about it so she decided to tell the manager what happened. The manager freaked out and told her that she shouldn’t have clicked “zero all,” and that you have to “filter it by brand,” — even though that wasn’t written on the instruction sheet.

The manager then told her that she “zeroed out the store’s entire inventory.” The woman is very noticeably frustrated and fighting back tears in her eyes recalling what happened. The woman says that no one can buy anything because it all says zero.

The woman told her manager, “That’s cool. Let me know the right way to do it next time, k?”
Now, obviously, we’ve all made mistakes at our jobs before — nobody’s perfect! Until the day that robots take over every single job in existence, we’re going to have to allow for some level of human error. Still, even though it’s a perfectly normal occurrence, it’s easy to imagine how awful this TikToker must have felt as soon as she realized her error.

And the error wasn’t even really her fault, as she points out in her video! We’re laying the blame for this one squarely at the feet of whoever created that piece of paper that tells people to click “zero all”!

Many of the commenters pointed out that the “zero all” button really shouldn’t even exist, or at least shouldn’t give one person the ability to completely delete 100 percent of the information without some kind of “are you sure you want to do that?” option.
Viewers were also super sympathetic to the TikToker’s plight. “Rough days at work are the worst. Just the worst,” one wrote. “Affects mood, self-esteem, outlook on life. I’m so sorry.”

On the bright side, this could be one way to ensure that you remain employed for a good long while. Someone is going to have to recount all of that stock, after all! Another silver lining is the fact that she’ll probably never have a worse day than this one. It’s all up from here!
When a social media influencer was contacted by a brand offering a ton of money for an AI clone of her, it was definitely too good to be true.
According to Forbes, there are at least nine advantages to using artificial intelligence (AI). They range from “reducing human error” to performing “risky and perilous tasks efficiently.” While I know that’s true in my brain, every story that comes out seems to be negative which adds more fearful fuel to my paranoid pyre.

One harrowing use of AI is making the rounds on TikTok and I’m not kidding when I say, this is a top five nightmare scenario for me. TikToker @adminandeve, real name Eve, was one of the first influencers I came across who was warning others about this trap. Apparently a brand is offering heaps of money in exchange for an AI clone of content creators with huge platforms. If it sounds like a Faustian bargain, it’s probably a Faustian bargain.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Eve Pena wants to help you find a job, and a decent existence. She’s a self-described career coach who wants to help people find employment that allows them to “live your life, pursue your passions, and pay you a thriving wage. Life is too short to work 14 days straight and take a vacation every three years,” per her website.
She offers a wide array of services that include but aren’t limited to punching up your resume, revamping your LinkedIn profile, and writing a cover letter that actually works. She will also give general career advice as needed. As Eve tells it, she “went from customer service to corporate to six figures in only four years as an assistant.” It’s safe to say, she knows how to get things done and can sniff out a scam.

That’s why she popped onto her TikTok to warn CareerTok and her fellow influencers of a pretty terrifying offer. “Over the next week or two you’re going to see influencers peddling a highly unethical, and really dangerous career-based service,” she claims. She knows this because that comany was “stupid enough to offer it” to her.

These guys must be desperate to spread the word about their services because they offered Eve what amounts to 25 times her rent in New York City. An apartment on the cheap side in NYC runs about $2,000, which means Eve might have been able to make as much as $50,000. So, who is spending this much money and what’s the catch?
The spiel went something like this: How would you feel if you never had to give an interview as you yourself ever again, and if we could create a clone for you by using your voice and likeness that would sit on Zoom calls and get you a stellar interview, and get you the job.” I’m not sure we’re at Zoom clones yet. This doesn’t feel right and is definitely the plot to Multiplicity.

Apparently they are promising the very same things Eve does as a Career Coach, so I can see why she is especially rattled by this. To get more information, Eve suggests they schedule a Zoom call. This of course begs the question, will Eve be speaking with a real person?

She comes in hot and points out the fact that this is very unethical. “What do you say to that,” she asks the woman (AI bot?) on the Zoom call. “I feel like it’s unethical too,” she replied. “Don’t worry we will create talking points for you so you can answer the hate comments and deflect as needed.” It’s definitely a bad sign when an organization is expecting negative reactions.
After doing some digging into the company, Eve learned the CEO is based on Dubai but couldn’t find a name. “So, he’s a Saudi billionaire,” joked Eve. Their plan is to target the American market via influencers with enormous platforms which Eve feels could also pose a threat to national security. Honestly, a bunch of influencer clones are only threatening to the wellness market.

The brand in question could be Forever Voices.
Eve doesn’t mention the name of the brand that contacted her, but it might be Forever Voices. They’ve already been dealing with influencers like Caryn Marjorie who partnered with the company and, “for a dollar a minute, fans she might never have otherwise had the time to meet could instead chat with Marjorie’s digital double,” reported the Los Angeles Times.

This is framed as romantic and “incorporates aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy into its conversations.” Conversations did get weird which makes sense says Amy Webb, chief executive of the consulting firm Future Today Institute. “We’re talking about an AI system [where] theoretically the goal is to keep people on as long as possible so that you continue earning money,” she said. “Which means that it’s likely going to start incentivizing behavior that we probably would not want in the real world.”
Although artificial intelligence is deeply rooted in machines and technology, one’s humanity must play a part in regulating. There are people like Eve who are concerned this is a bit like selling your soul while folks like Caryn “see AI as a tool, and it’s a tool that helps creators create better content.” Maybe Goethe was right when he wrote in Faust: E’en hell hath its peculiar laws.

Model, DJ, and influencer Charly Jordan is best known for dance videos and vlogs on TikTok and being a baddie on Instagram. The 24-year-old, born on March 9, 1999, has also gained attention for her candid approach to telling her followers whether there’s a remarkable man in her life.

Since Charly rose to fame on social media at age 19, the Las Vegas, NV native has been romantically linked to several influencers who became famous around the same time. After a few public relationships, Charly has met her match with her current non-famous boyfriend.
But before we dive into Charly’s partner in 2023, let’s take a look back at the influencer’s dating history!

Who are Charly Jordan’s exes? A look at the model’s relationship history.
Charly’s seemingly overnight success quickly put her on the radar of fellow influencers and eligible bachelors. She literally dated a previous Bachelor Nation star, so we’re not exaggerating when we say they came running.

In September 2017, Charly and Bachelor Nation alum Robert Graham went public with their romance. Robert, who had broken up with his Bachelor Nation co-star Becca Tilley in May 2017, announced he and Charly were dating via Instagram.

According to Us Weekly, the since-deleted post showed him and Charly at the beach, with him captioning the photo “my favorite.”
During their relationship, Charly was 19, and Robert was 35. The couple’s age gap was often discussed on Reddit and other social media platforms, with fans criticizing them. In May 2020, Charly announced via Instagram that the pair had decided to part ways after three years of dating.

“I never sing on here, but I’ve been getting a lot of questions about my relationship since moving,” Charly shared in an Instagram Story (via Reddit). “And yes, we are no longer together. This isn’t an easy time for either of us, but we ended on good terms and want the best for each other.”

After her split from Robert, Charly started dating a TikTok influencer, Tayler Holder. The two started seeing each other in October 2020 after his public breakup with fellow influencer Sommer Ray. However, the pair endured highs and lows, ending their on-again-off-again romance in late 2021.

Charly Jordan was also romantically linked to Logan Paul.
While Charly has confirmed her relationship with Robert and Tayler in the past, rumors have swirled that she dated other influencers but kept it on the hush-hush. In May 2021, during one of her “off” eras with Tayler, photographers spotted Charly spending some alone time with content creator and boxer Logan Paul.

One photo that sparked the dating rumors was one of Charly hanging out with Logan and his friends in Atlanta at the Jake Paul vs. Ben Askren fight, and Charly and Logan were seemingly getting cozy at the fight.

However, when Charly said on a May 2021 episode of The Sync Up Podcast that she and Logan had been friends for “four years” and said she was actually “rolling a backwood” and because it was “so windy” outside, she asked Logan to cover her, sparking dating rumors.

Who is Charly’s boyfriend in 2023?
After a few years of being single and dodging dating rumors, Charly shared in 2023 that she was in a new relationship. She began posting photos of her and a shaggy-haired fellow named Mike on her TikTok and Instagram.
Mike seemingly isn’t an influencer, and Charly chooses not to tag his social media info in their posts together. However, Mike has been around for many of the model’s 2023 highlights.

In September 2023, Charly released several videos of her New York Fashion Week adventures. On her TikTok, Charly’s boyfriend supported her with laughs, hugs, Taco Bell, and, apparently, hickies. During one of her vlog posts about Fashion Week, her fans stated Mike was a “keeper” and seemed to be an excellent fit for Charly.
