Texas Teen's Rude Tweet Gets Her Fired Before Starting New Pizzeria Job, Sparks Viral Debate (TWEETS)

A Texas teen was fired from her new job before she even started because she complained about the "f--k a--" gig on social media.

The female teenager, only known as Cella, claims she was fired from a pizza shop after complaining about starting her new job on Twitter, The Telegraph reported.

"Eww. I start this (expletive) job tomorrow," the teen tweeted on Friday, the night before she was set to start as a cashier at Jet's Pizza in Mansfield, Texas.

However, the tweet was spotted by a current employee working at that pizzeria, who then showed it to her manager, Robert Waple.

The result? Waple tweeted back to the teen to let her know she was fired, according to The Blaze.

"No you won't start that FA job today! I just fired you! Good luck with your no money, no job life!" he replied on Saturday - the first time he used his account since 2009.

"Working register, taking phone orders, making subs/salads. Eating free pizza. How hard would that have been?" he added in a follow-up tweet, which has since been deleted.

When some Twitter users questioned the authenticity of his reply, noting the infrequency of his tweets, Waple claimed that he hadn't checked Twitter in six years and now that he's made his point, he'll check it again in another six years.

"Nope, it's me... I haven't used my account for a long time, but I did today!" he tweeted, adding that even though he would have preferred to call Cella, the tweet would have to do since he wasn't in office.

Cella called the pizzeria anyways, where another manager confirmed the decision to fire her.

"I got fired over Twitter," she tweeted later in the day along with three laughing emojis.

Since the exchange of tweets went viral, Cella received both support and mockery from over 2,700 followers, the New York Daily News reported.

"That was literally the worst job I've ever had and at one point I was dropping pizzas in hopes of getting fired!" @DubsUFrye tweeted, adding that the job wasn't as cushy as Waple made it sound.

"A lucky escape. Now you're famous & everyone knows how nasty he is (from his own words). Good luck," tweeted Jane Pepper.

"You were exercising your freedom of speech and never mentioned the company name so you got fired for no reason, contact HR ASAP," @BITTHEBIGAPPLE tweeted.

"If this is regarding the tweet she sent out, privacy is not even a privilege. You put that out there," Ryan Scott Neal argued back.

Meanwhile Waple, who has since made his Twitter account private, could not immediately be reached for comment.
