A server at a North Carolina restaurant said she was fired after posting a viral video of a man having a meal with a blow-up doll.

The woman who goes by the name "t_bjork" on TikTok posted the short video over the Memorial Day weekend.

In the video she said, "OK, I'm not supposed to be making TikToks at work, but this calls for it. I work at a nice restaurant in Charlotte, and I need you guys to see what just came in the door."

She then shows a man scanning the menu at a table with a blow-up doll placed in the chair across the table.
The woman told the Charlotte Observer she expected to be fired from the upscale eatery after posting the video but couldn't resist.

The caption was simply, "No words."

She said she was already thinking of quitting anyway. Identified by the paper as Tara Eve Bjork, said she said "was ready for new opportunities, so it wasn't too much of a shock, thank goodness. Sort of shocked at HOW viral it went though! My friends parents were telling me they've seen it.

The man posted his own TikTok video about the dining experience. He said that dining with the doll was nothing more than his punishment from losing a wager in his fantasy football league. "Tough date," he wrote in the caption.
