Buckle up for the latest social media scandal that’s tearing up the internet! Â
A licensed plumber claims he’s been canned after a video of his appearance on a YouTube dating show went viral. Â
 Aaron, the man at the center of this storm, debuted last week on Arlette Amuli’s dating show, “Pop The Balloon Or Find Love.” Â
The premise is simple: a line of ladies with balloons decide if they’re interested in the bachelor in front of them. If not, they pop their balloon and explain why.
The drama kicked off towards the end of the one-hour-17-minute video when 29-year-old Aaron laid out his dating criteria. Â
He told the show host he was looking for a woman who “wasn’t promiscuous and has a career going for herself.”Â
He also mentioned that being “not cleanly” was a major “dealbreaker” for him.
Aaron then made his way to a woman named Karma, who immediately popped her balloon, claiming she wasn’t “fully attracted” to him. Â
Aaron’s sharp retort? “The feeling is definitely mutual so that’s OK, you did me a favor.”
The tension didn’t end there. Â
 Another woman, Tara, popped her balloon because she didn’t like how Aaron spoke to Karma. Â
Aaron clapped back, saying, “If I saw you in public, I wouldn’t reach out to you.” Â
The budget dating show continued with Aaron facing multiple rejections and delivering putdowns in return. Â
Despite the balloon pops and spats, Aaron left the show with a 23-year-old woman named Esther.
But the aftermath of Aaron’s appearance was explosive. Â
The YouTube video amassed over 1.5 million views, going viral across social media. Â
 Aaron claims the viral fame cost him his job. Â
Taking to Instagram on Monday (June 17), he wrote, “All this clout chasing got me fired from work.”
“Man, I really love plumbing and I’m good at it & they got that taken away from me,” he continued. Â
 Aaron lamented, “Y’all are sick they called the company 500xs and are messing up business.”
Let’s dig into Aaron’s backstory. Â
Aaron, a 29-year-old plumber, had always been passionate about his trade. Â
He started plumbing right out of high school, following in his father’s footsteps. Â
Known for his skill and dedication, Aaron quickly made a name for himself in his local community. Â
Plumbing wasn’t just a job for Aaron; it was a craft he took pride in, providing essential services to countless households.
His appearance on “Pop The Balloon Or Find Love” was meant to be a fun detour from his everyday routine. Â
 Little did he know, it would turn his life upside down. Â
The backlash from the show has been intense, with viewers flooding his employer with complaints.
Fans of Amuli’s channel have been fiercely debating the situation. Â
One social media user wrote, “I hate how he acted on the show, definitely not cool, but to call his job and get him fired is some bs. This is his livelihood.” Â
 A supportive fan commented, “You have a skill that’s always needed. You don’t need the company.”
 Others were more skeptical. Â
“This is sad. Someone gives the same energy that was given and people get so upset that he loses his job? Social media takes things entirely too far,” one remarked. Â
Another doubted Aaron’s story, saying, “Could be a tactic to get money from us.”
 Despite the controversy, some saw a silver lining. Â
“It’s plumbing… it’s needed everywhere. Get another job lol,” another commented.
Aaron’s story is a classic case of social media’s double-edged sword. Â
While it can bring fame and opportunity, it can also lead to unforeseen consequences. Â
The fallout from his viral video highlights the precarious nature of online fame.
 In the end, Aaron’s tale is a cautionary one. Â
The internet can be a ruthless arena where public opinion sways swiftly. Â
 His experience shows just how quickly a moment of fame can turn into a nightmare.
As Aaron navigates his next steps, he’s got the support of many who believe he’ll bounce back. Â
Plumbing, after all, is a trade always in demand. Â
 Whether Aaron lands a new job or finds another path, his viral moment serves as a stark reminder of the power—and peril—of social media fame.
