How to lose a job BEFORE you even start: Teen fired after complaining on Twitter about starting

A Texas teenager has been fired from her job at a pizza parlor before she even started after she sent out a tweet complaining about the gig and her new boss saw it. 

In a hilarious Twitter exchange, a twitter user who goes by 'Cella' wrote: 'Ew I start this f*** a** job tomorrow.'

The next morning, Robert Waple - the owner of Jet's Pizza in Mansfield, Texas - tweeted at her: 'And....no you don't start that FA job today! I just fired you! Good luck with your no money, no job life!' 

He was moved to tweet for only the second time since he started the account in 2009.

I was able to start working at 14. Our city’s recreation department. Pool staff stuff, then onto lifeguarding.

I saw another story where it said somebody brought it to his attention.

My son would help me from a very young age, and was a hard-worker from the get-go. I recall one job when he was only about nine or so humping up a hill with me checking the site out. The next week I was out with my real crew. they did a lot more complaining!

When he got his first real job the guy called him in and said “your interview will be how you do on your first day”. Server, set-up, busboy stuff. He put in 14 hours that first day!

He is at college and still works there. Although I have to remind him that his studies are more important than a part-time job.

I did have to tell him to watch what he was saying on twitter - he used to have cuss words every once in awhile. I’m not sure if me mentioning prospective employers changed his ways, or prospective girl friends.

Actually, "You're welcome" is preferabe to "Your welcome."

"You're" is a contraction of "You are," so the full phrase would be "You are welcome." That's what you're shooting for.

“..and fired her before he had to deal with her ***** attitude as an employee.”

Hard to say, the twitter stuff can be a lot of bluster, just to show off to her friends. I know my son will retweet stuff about “college life” with many posts about slacking off. But he’s not a slacker.

But that is the trouble, these stupid kids don’t realize that EVERYONE can find out what they are posting if they try hard enough. And their idiot brains don’t comprehend the long-term effects they can have.

I’m sure glad the internet wasn’t around when I was a kid!

“No problem” is an ingrained societal autonomic response kinda like (May I help you) “just looking”. It’s been increasingly used lately for some reason.

Somehow I am sure she has no idea how little I care. Here stupid ass comment kept her unemployed and for that the former potential “boss” should have been given a medal. You can’t fix stupid people but that does not mean you have to hire them either.

According to the article, one of his other employees told him about the “tweet”. Probably another teen who does the twitter thing.

Don't worry, you are not alone. People who care nothing for grammar are LEGION...

To my ultimate chagrin, of course. ;-)
