File Under "How Dumb Can You Be"?

Why should she be grateful for accepting a job? She didn't mention the name of the company. The owner sounds like a bit of a jerk to me

Teen Complains About New Job On Twitter and loses her job before even starting. How dumb does she have to be? Seriously. Of course he fired her. You'd have to be an idiot to employ that girl. What does it say for any company that even bothers to interview her in the future? This shows that she is both ungrateful as well as being an idiot.
Hold up Scott! She is an idot for posting bad remarks about a job online, but she may have accidently did something smart. I just read her tweets and she has people from around the world telling her she is known in their country. She can now bank on her popularity. Only if she knows how to work the system.

She apparently applied for a job and then wasn't happy that she had to work it. It's unlikely that the pizza shop was seeking her out hoping that she would work for them.

She's "popular" amongst the unemployed. She has fifteen minutes of fame for being an idiot and not being able to hold onto a minimum wage job for even one minute. That's not the kind of fame that gets you a job somewhere else nor is it Kim Kardashian fame. This is worthless fame. Getting a bunch of anonymous Tweets saying that people "know her" doesn't put food on the table.
The problem here is that she has nothing to offer another job but now has a public reputation not only for being idiotic and bashing her current job but making a big deal about it. So..... what idiot would hire her now? You'd be seriously foolish to hire her.

reminds me of that poor sod on reddit who was all excited to get a job at google. they posted all these pictures of their uniform and other stuff and then google fired them for breaking NDA.
-
I checked her Twitter account. Only 64 followers, mostly spam bots and kids in other countries. She has no remaining tweets and her profile is blank. I think "famous" is overstating it. No one even knows who she is at this point.
The pizza place, on the other hand, is well known and probably getting record business.

Yeah, that one was worse because it was all positive. There was real potential for just having a good talking to him about what an NDA means and how anal Google is. That was a potentially awesome Google employee that they let go because they are terrified that anyone find out what it is really like to work there.
Although honestly, no one who WORKS at Google is excited about it, only people who HOPE to work at Google. So once he was inside his sudden loss of excitement is probably something that Google feared too.

I was actually surprised that it was a teen. Seems less like a teen thing to me. What teen is so pissed about working in a pizza place. I only wish I could have made pizzas as a teen rather than what I was actually doing.
-
I actually worked with @Minion-Queen and @art_of_shred when I was seventeen!
-
Teens these days feel very entitled. They can do no wrong ever don't ya know?
-
@Minion-Queen I think that they always felt that way. Just now they have Twitter.
-
No these days it is very different. All teenagers have always felt they were smarter than everyone else. Now they think they are smarter and the world owes them an awesome job that makes them cool and they will earn lots of $$ for no effort.
-
Pretty sure that that is not new.

Just to share..
I was 18 years old, I applied my passport in DFA office, After they checked my requirements for my application, They instructed me to proceed to 2nd floor to submit my application.
I never thought that i need to fall in line and get the number.
What i did is.. " I just come forward and smile to processing officer"
He asked me
DFA Officer: What is that?
Me: My papers Sir.
DFA Officer: Yes i know, Do you have number?
Me: Uh, Sorry i don't have, Where can i get that?
DFA Officer: Are you sure? Of course you need that, How will i process your application Miss?
Me: Sorry, Do i need to go back and get number?
DFA Officer: No need, Since you're already here, lets process your application.
Me: Blush..Too late, when i realized lots of people are in queue.. including the senior citizens staring at me angry lols
Stupidity and ignorance makes my application fast and it takes only 30 mins
But i learned from my own mistake
From that time, I make sure to be careful and not to do it again. -

LMBO! I can tell you feel very passionate about the matter Scott. However, I disagree with you. You see she is a young teen and young teens do foolish things. This would be just something she can mark down as one of the crazy dumb things she did in life. This is a time to mentor her and help her grow from her mistakes. This foolish act would have been a perfect opportunity for the new employer, who stooped to her level by trying to embarrass her, to mentor her. Or be a lil professional about firing her. If anyone who has hiring abilities discriminate her due to this silly misfortune, they aren't worth working for. However, if this was a full grown career seasoned person, they should know better. We should never f'get where we come from. As the good book says, let those who hasn't sin cast the first stone. With that being said, who amongst us within this post hasn't done something they haven't regretted when they were a teen. You probably thank God that they didn't have FB, Twitter...etc back when you did all of your foolishness.
I guess it's only ok to be a foolish teen if you have rich parents. At least they could afford your mistake and probably sweep it under the rug.There's my 5 cent on the matter.
