Cousins Maine Lobster Posts a Suspect Coworker Challenge on TikTok
There's currently a trend on TikTok called the "Suspect Cowoker Challenge" and Cousins Maine Lobster has taken it with the ultimate roast of their co-workers.
Whoever started this trend got the idea from police foot chases, where a police officer puts a call out on the radio with a trait of the coworker "suspect" who is running from them. It's basically a clever roast and the traits can be brutal, yet hilarious.
It goes like this: "Suspect says she missed a spot shaving but it appears to be the whole leg."
Here's what one looks like. Be warned there is some NSFW language in the video. You can probably figure out what it is if you imagine your response when someone roasts you hard.
You might remember Cousins Maine Lobster's appearance on Shark Tank where they received a $55,000 investment from Barbara Corcoran in 2012. Just four years later, that had revenue of $20 million and as of February 2024, they had 60 locations, including food trucks and brick-and-mortar restaurants.
Their TikTok channel has lots of videos of the employees of Cousins having fun dressing up for Halloween and some videos with investor Corcoran. They also have the Maine staff of Cousins taking the Suspect Coworker Challenge.
I usually don't understand these crazy TikTok trends. The first time my girlfriend Michele told me about this, I didn't get it, but once she showed me the video it became clear. And yeah, it is pretty damn funny. I'm kind of hoping they post a new one soon.
