No one needs to be reminded about the transformative power of Twitter. It can incite protests, end regimes and mobilise the masses – but it’s also just as useful if you want to get back at the company that just fired you.

On December 15, The Plough Pub in Great Haseley, England, fired its head chef, Jim Knight. The chef, however, still had access to the pub’s Twitter account, and proceeded to absolutely destroy them in full public view.

Mr. Potts, the pub landlord, told local press that this claim was “outrageous and untrue.” He admitted that the restaurant may buy certain staples from supermarkets, but he insisted that they are not buying cut-price meat.

After the tirade, the chef made it clear what had happened:
