Texas teen's tweets get her fired over Twitter

MANSFIELD, Texas, Feb. 11 (UPI) -- A Texas teenager who lamented the start of her new pizzeria job on Twitter found herself fired via tweet before her first day on the job.

The teenager, who uses the handle @cellla_ on Twitter, took to the micro blogging site Friday to complain about the impending start of her new job at a Jet's Pizza franchise in Mansfield.

"Ew I start this [expletive] [expletive] job tomorrow," she posted Friday, along with a string of displeased thumbs-down emojis.

The tweet caught the attention of franchise owner Robert Waple, who solved Cella's problem for her. "No you don't start that FA job today! I just fired you! Good luck with your no money, no job life!" he tweeted Saturday.

Cella, for her part, didn't seem to upset about losing her job.

"I got fired over Twitter," she tweeted. The teenager said she called the store and a manager confirmed her firing.

"Working register, taking phone orders, making subs/salads. Eating free pizza. How hard would that have been?" Waple tweeted, before apparently removing all tweets from his Twitter account.

Jet's America Inc. said in a statement issued to FoxNews.com that the Mansfield location is independently owned and operated.

"Jet's America, Inc., as the franchisor, cannot dictate the employment practices or decisions of independently owned and operated franchise businesses," a spokeswoman said. "Nevertheless, Jet's regrets to see the manner in which this situation has been handled by the parties involved."
