A furious mother condemned bosses at a cafe for being 'heartless' after they sacked her 16-year old daughter via her Facebook page.

Chelsea Taylor burst into tears when she logged on to the social networking site to find a dismissal letter littered with grammatical errors and ending with two kisses.
Elaine Sutton the manageress of Cookies in Leigh, Greater Manchester, said Chelsea was being fired from her Saturday job for losing a £10 note during an errand to get some biscuits for the staff.

The message raed: 'hiya Chelsea its Elaine from work. Sorry to send u a message like this but bin tryin to ring u but gettin no joy.

'I had to tell the owner bout u losin that tenner coz obviously the till was down at the end of day. she wasn't very pleased at all and despite me trying to persuade her otherwise she said I have to let u go. I'm really sorry.'
It is believed to be the first time in Britain a worker has been sacked via Facebook.
Chelsea's mother Nicola, 37, who runs a taxi firm said: 'To sack a young worker via Facebook is appalling and heartless - and way it was written was dreadful.
'I just can't believe they didn't even have the decency to tell her over the phone, let alone in person.

'And to have the message all mis-spelt with capital letters and apostrophes missing is simply disrespectful and sets no example to other employees.


'What sort of message does firing someone over Facebook send out to young people who are hoping to find work?
'She was mortified when she realised she had lost the money, but accidents happen.
'She was so upset when she phoned me to say she had lost the money, she was devastated.
'I told her to be honest and just explain to the manager what had happened. I offered to replace the money but the manager reassured us that it was all fine.
Chelsea who is studying for her GCSEs, landed her £3.55 an hour 10am-to 4pm job at the cafe earlier this month after spotting an an advert.
She said: 'Even if she had sent me a text message or something it would have been better than on Facebook. She didn't have the guts to tell me face-to-face.'
A member of staff at Cookies - also known as the Lancashire Tea Room - said: 'We don't want to talk about this.'
