She suspects a TikTok video of her in a schoolgirl outfit may have been a particular problem for the district.

Yeah. I could see that being a worry.

MacDonald said being an education assistant only earned her $1,000 every two weeks after deductions. She insisted that while on duty at school, she was solely focused on helping students and had never been the subject of complaints about her behaviour with students.

This is probably one of the most important points from the article.

Also:

She says there needs to be more attention given to the low pay of education assistants and there needs to be less stigma around sex work. She doesn't regret speaking out.

"I feel strongly that in this day and age, we should be able to do what we want as long as it's not illegal," MacDonald said. "I'm not hurting anybody."

Good for her.

She essentially was fetishizing her job online for money. I can definitely see that getting into some areas that would result in violating some sort of employment policy they agreed to.
