Pittsburgh Pirates fire mascot over Facebook posting

Another day, another example of how NOT to use Facebook.

According to a Yahoo story, a 24 year old Pittsburgh man who was employed as a racing pierogi (Milwaukee Brewer fans, think racing sausages) was fired after he posted a sarcastic status update about the contract extensions of the team's general manager and manager.

I've said it before; do not say negative things about your work on social media channels! These comments can come back to bite you, and can even cost you your job!
