Here's a sign of the internet age: a girl in Mansfield, Texas, was fired publicly on Twitter, for a tweet she wrote before starting her job.

Her story has reached the whole world in days, and international fans tweeted in admiration from overseas.

The girl, known by her Twitter handle @Cella, wrote on Feb. 6: "Eww I start this [f$#% a*%] job tomorrow," followed by seven "thumbs down" emojis.

When another employee tipped off the would-be boss that social media was abuzz with his new hire's misgivings, he logged onto his seldom-used Twitter account to say: "No you don't start that FA job today! I just fired you! Good luck with your no money, no job life!"

Then came Cella's: "I got fired over Twitter."

As the story spread, fans chimed in, infoming Cella via Twitter that she was "famous" in Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahamas, Nicaragua, Argentina, Venezuela, Italy, Malaysia, Chile, Peru and others.

According to Cella's Twitter feed, radio stations from around the country were asking to interview her on the air yesterday. Hopefully the girl can use her new-found fame to find a job.
