This is the extraordinary moment a Tesco employee goes on an explosive rant about her job, spitting and punching the air, as she dons her uniform for a long shift.
Jade Pinner, 19, from Basildon, Essex, was getting ready for an evening shift at her local Tesco’s in April when she could not contain her anger at the prospect of facing customers.
In the footage, which she posted last night, the teenager had been on a night out and was in a sleep-deprived state when she decided to sound off about having to head in to work.

Fiddling with her employee outfit, Jade said in the video: ‘Girls, I’m not going to lie to you. I’ve had no sleep. And I’m working till ten tonight.’
She then lets out a shrill scream before murmuring: ‘I feel like killing myself.’

She then spits on the floor and begins punching the air furiously.

‘I was working there for a long, hard, f***ing year.’

Speaking about her viral video, she said: ‘I made a TikTok account because I was bored so I’m buzzing the video went viral.’
