A Twitter user has managed to get the sack before even starting work due to an ill-advised tweet.

Media reports say a young woman in the US, going by the name Cella, took to Twitter to express her dismay about starting her new job at a pizzeria using industrial language.

Her new boss, upon seeing the tweet, subsequently informed her she had been fired.

‘Cella’ seemed to confirm the news by tweeting: "I got fired over Twitter".
