Search: Fired over Facebook posts
Ashley Johnson had a decent job as a waitress at a pizza joint in Charlotte (where?). But that changed when a couple came in for lunch and stayed for three hours, forcing her to work an hour past her quitting time. And they left her a tip she thought was pretty measly. How much?
Johnson did what most folks who need a good rant do nowadays. She took to her Facebook page. What did she post?
A waitress is out of a job after complaining on Facebook about the $5 (£3.45) tip she received from a couple who sat at their table for three hours.
She said the pair kept her at work for an extra hour in the restaurant in North Carolina, in the US.
The Charlotte Observer reported that Ashley Johnson felt slighted after waiting on the couple at Brixx Pizza, so she criticised the pair on the social networking site, calling them cheap.
Days later, Brixx bosses told Johnson she was being fired for violating a company policy that banned workers from speaking disparagingly about customers and the restaurant online.
Johnson said she she apologised to Brixx and was looking for a new job.
