Her TikTok was set to the viral sound “Miami, My Amy,” by Keith Whitley.
The video starts with the caption “being a girl and working at GameStop.”
It then runs through a series of questions she has been asked at work.
Text over a photo of a man shows the question: “When did you start working here? What’s your gamer tag?”
Other questions included: “Are you sure you know what you’re talking about?”
“Do you have GTA-5?”
Other TikTokers commented, sharing similar experiences from their time at GameStop.
“Worked for GS for 9 years,” @thejetttt commented.
“Was an ASM. Can confirm this is how the female employees were treated. I usually stepped in if I could.”
