This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard

As a woman who doesn't wear makeup, I was pissed when I read that. Seriously, of all the possible reasons to fire someone, management picked the most shallow: to fire a waitress for refusing to wear makeup. Granted, management can fire anyone for any reason they like, but even so, to fire someone over something trivial such as not wearing makeup? Gimme a break!!!!!

How could facebook be responsible for this?

Apparently, last month a Newfoundland man's lawsuit was foiled, due in part to facebook. However the article states that he suffered injuries in two separate car crashes, once in 2001 & once in 2003. Whereas facebook wasn't created until 2004.
