Idiot fired over twitter before starting job.
A young woman who goes by the Twitter handle @Cellla was axed from a job at a pizza place in Texas before her first day.

Why? She tweeted "Ew I start this (expletive) job tomorrow" on Feb. 6 at 11:43 p.m., according to multiple news organizations.

But the next day the owner of Jet's Pizza in Mainsfield, Robert Waple, replied to her on Twitter saying, "And...no you don't start that job today! I just fired you! Good luck with your no money, no job life!"

Isn't technology fucking great. People want it, but have no idea what it is or how to use, but they want it.

It figures that if you're on Twitter; you might be a Twit.

Re: Idiot fired over twitter before starting job.
Haha!

I wonder how these retards think that they can post whatever crap they want about their employer on Twitter or Facebook and it won't come out at some point. It's routine for employers to check out job applicants' FB/Twitter accounts when vetting the candidates.

I've told my kids that they should think posting on the internet (e-mail, websites, twitter, FB, whatever) as pinning something on a public bulleting board where it will stay practically forever.

If you don't want some people to see it, don't pin/post it at all. Every single person with whom you share the post can forward it to anyone and you have no control over it - and the internet doesn't forget. For really confidential/embarrassing stuff you should use a phone or talk face-to-face. You don't want to have something you posted in your teen years to come back and haunt you when you're looking for a job 10 years from now.

You could create a database of all the people that were hurt by social media backfires.

The Chick-fil-e guy who is on food stamps.

The blonde going to South Africa fired about the aids tweet.

etc.

Re: Idiot fired over twitter before starting job.
Whew. I forget how flat out ignorant and moronic most people are today. Then I take a look at twitter or other social media and remember "the roar of the masses could be farts" and shake my head at the vapidness.

Cella honey, your a total dumbass, and the world won't be doing you any favors for being a moron. Ignorance is not cute nor funny. Twitter will not pay your bills, like your (failing) parents probably are doing.

That's sad. Create a throwaway e-mail account using a public computer and set up an empty FB page. Some employers here demanded that their job applicants make their FB pages public to the employer, but it was deemed by the courts as an illegal request (like asking a young woman applicant in a job interview if she plans to have kids in near future) and not a legal cause for passing over the applicant.

Screw that. I refuse to play those games. If an employer bases their opinion of a person off of a facebook page then screw them. I do not want to work for them anyways, as they are a shallow minded person that has a egotistical power problem.

Social media is not your friend. It is a way to control you and your thoughts.
