Fired due to clerical error! That’s a new one, and quite motivating for the employee who is no longer fired.

It is absolutely not a new one. Welcome to planet earth. Read some Kafka.

I'm not sure if you're trying to defend twitter, but if you are, I absolutely love that you're doing it by calling it a Kafkian company!

Somebody caught it ;)

Kafka wrote fiction. And was mentally unwell. I do like his writing, actually, but his books are not proof of anything.
