A South Carolina single mom who went viral last month for running an entire Burger King store by herself has been fired from the gig over “attendance issues” — which she claims come from ensuring her “kids come first. ” Nykia Hamilton, a 25-year-old mother of three, garnered online fame in July after a customer filmed her hustling from station to station alone inside the Columbia, SC, fast-food joint to ensure hungry customers were fed amid a staffing shortage, according to a TikTok video posted on July 6. But just over a month after the footage was released, Hamilton said she was fired from the burger franchise for being late to take care of her kids.
