An Arkansas mother claimed she was fired for showing up an hour late to her new job due to a harsh blizzard that swept through her area the night before.
Damita JoMama, who recounted her story and aired out her grievances on TikTok , said she left her previous job to join a “popular ambulance company” with better pay and benefits that would help support herself and her child.
On the day she was to start her job with the unnamed employer, her area of Arkansas was pelted with two to three inches of snow and the state didn’t properly prepare with “snow plows” and salt for the roads.
“Walmart closes. And Walmart don’t ever close!” the mother said, conveying how unequipped the state is handling snow.
Still determined to start her new job, JoMama trekked out in the show, even opting to take her mom’s SUV to make the journey easier.
“I have never had to drive in snow before because every job I’ve had previous to this I’ve always been off when it snow,” she added.
