A slice of bad luck: Girl sacked over Twitter before even starting new job in pizza shop

Social media and work don’t always mix that well, as one girl in America found out all too abruptly.

Cella took to Twitter on the eve of her first day at a new job working in a pizzeria to tell everyone just how much she was looking forward to it. As you can see from the image below, she was not exactly brimming with excitement.

However, as a slice of bad luck, her tweet was seen by Pizza shop owner Robert Waple, who quickly alleviated Cella’s worries.

Cella, who tweets under the Twitter handle @Cellla_, is now the proud owner of two shiny new records: she is both the first person to lose a job before even starting it, and the first person to be given the sack over Twitter. Not only that but she has risen to internet stardom as a result of the event.

When asked by another Twitter user what her job would have been that she was so not looking forward to, Mr Waple responded: “Working register, taking phone orders, making subs/salads. Eating free pizza. How hard would that have been?”
