In a viral video, TikToker Chantel Tyson (@bbygirlchantel) shared her WFH job where she takes calls that rarely come in. 

“Y’all, this is why I love working from home,” she says. “No, it’s not for the money but it might as well be.”

Tyson showed a view of her desk that was composed of food, a hotspot, and her computer. She had been logged in to her shift for over 30 minutes with no calls.
