Hero Employee Disables Donald Trump's Twitter On Last Day

CNN- President Trump's verified @realDonaldTrump account briefly went offline. Anyone who navigated to his feed was given a generic blue landing page that read, "Sorry, that page doesn't exist!"

 

And in a stunning plot twist, the world later learned it wasn't a glitch -- but the work of a Twitter employee on his or her last day at work.

Initially, one of the social media site's verified accounts said Trump's feed was "inadvertently deactivated due to a human error." But a couple of hours later, Twitter announced further investigation revealed "a Twitter customer support employee ... did this on the employee's last day."

Full story here.

The person who deleted Donald Trump’s twitter last night isn’t just a hero because they deleted Donald Trump’s twitter, but because they had the courage to do the “last day fuck you” thing we’ve always wanted to do.

Every time you quit a job, you have that one thing in your mind that you’ve been waiting to do for weeks, months, or years. Maybe it was finally to steal Steve’s sandwich out of the fridge, or to tell Rhonda to shut the fuck up about her niece, or maybe to defile Regan’s cat pictures, or maybe it was to staple your bosses hands to his desk; I don’t know, just the normal stuff! I worked as a barista for a long time, and I had this long dream of working an extra fifteen minutes on my last day, just waiting for someone to come up and ask for some ridiculous drink. As soon as they ordered, I imagined just looking at them for a long moment before shaking my head and silently taking my apron off and walking out. I didn’t want anything crazy, no drama, just a quiet shake of disapproval, an apron drop, and a storm out, leaving a confused mass of people in my wake wondering what the hell had just happened. Was it a good idea? No. Would it have been funny? Probably for me. Would I have exaggerated it in future retellings? Definitely. Did I do it? I’m a coward, so I absolutely did not.

But this employee, this mystery hero of ours- said fuck it, I’m trolling the president.

Love the move. Respect the hell out of it. Gotta love imagining the look on dear Donald’s face as he tried to figure out what was going on with his account. He probably scrambled to jot down all of his tweets on his aides’ ties so he wouldn’t forget, asking Melania to recount to the characters to make sure it all added up. What a victory for the internet, what a win for the little guy, what a day to inspire disgruntled employees everywhere. Happy Friday indeed.

 

EDITOR'S NOTE: Apparently maybe this twitter employee was a contractor/ not a full time employee, in which case the main point of this blog is rendered irrelevant. So reimagine the headline to "Ever want to take a part time job and see how much chaos you can cause before you get caught? This guy did that!".
