Imagine relocating to another state for a job—just to have the employment offer rescinded a week before the start date. That’s exactly what happened to a couple that moved to Arizona.
In the viral video detailing their experience, TikToker Sara Kahn (@sara..kahn) shares the couple’s moving experience, and everything starts off fine. At the onset of the “chaotic moving vlog,” Kahn has a positive and forward-looking attitude.
She explains that she’s moving out of her “first big girl apartment” and shows movers loading a large truck with her belongings. Kahn says she’s moving with her boyfriend to Arizona since he got a job in the state for which he had to relocate.
In the following clip, Kahn’s demeanor is notably less excited. She says the moving truck just drove away, and her boyfriend was already on the road headed to their new apartment. But, as she was about to get in her car to make the drive, she received a call from her boyfriend.
“We need to talk,” he told her.
Kahn runs through the possible scenarios that would warrant such a serious statement. Her boyfriend confirms that his loved ones are healthy and he’s relatively okay. She then asks if he still has a job.
“No,” he said, Kahn recalls. He went on to explain that when the company called, he was chipper with them, telling the person he was excited to start the role in just one week. The person on the other end of the phone let out a sigh and told her boyfriend they were rescinding his offer.
“So I am now unemployed, my boyfriend is now unemployed, and we are moving into a two-bedroom apartment that we now can’t afford in a new state,” Kahn says with a stressed expression. “This is comical. This is a sick joke.”
