These are actual tweets that I found by doing a few simple key word searches on Twitter…this is a friendly reminder that what happens on the internet STAYS on the internet!

Think before you tweet…

  • thank goodness my boss is making things easy, he told me to pretend to do work so he can mark me down for hours.
  • Just got fired from Home Depot!!!!
  • I’m sooooooi drunk at work right now……what happened last night? ????
  • kinda still tired stayed out until 5 am last night. i dread going there today i hate my job :(
  • Cisco just offered me a job! Now I have to weigh the utility of a fatty paycheck against the daily commute to San Jose and hating the work
  • IM STILL DRUNK! At work tryna get some breakfast!
  • called in sick to work. now let’s get ready to PARTAY!!
  • hoping to get fired from my deadbeat job on Monday and wondering what to do next…

  • My boss is the most intrusive, nosey, & annoying person I’ve ever met in my life! I could kill myself with how much I hate working for him.
