CLACTON, England, Feb. 26 (UPI) -- A 16-year-old British girl said she was fired from her office job after managers saw that she had branded her position "boring" on Facebook.
Kimberley Swann said she was called into her manager's office at Ivell Marketing & Logistics in Clacton, England, and given a letter stating that she was being fired from her job as an office administrator after she called the job "boring" on her Facebook page, The Daily Telegraph reported Thursday.
......and what's funny is the creator of Facebook was just on the TODAY SHOW saying how secure it's users information was.

She may have been talking about her Facebook webpage and given a link to a coworker. Said coworker may have then talked about it to others, including the boss.
Or, the boss may also have a Facebook account and independently figured he'd look her up out of pure curiosity and...surprise!!

Plus on facebook you have to become a "friend" to view anyone's page.
