If you think sorting through your personal Twitter account is hard enough, imagine handling the Twitter account of a major company like Wendy’s.
Wendy’s Twitter account recently surprised the twitterverse when it started giving out snarky responses to obvious troll posts. Apparently it started with an innocent marketing tweet, reports USA Today.
The actual exchange is no longer available as the user had apparently deactivated the account. Thankfully, another Twitter user took notice and shared some screenshots. Image: Twitter/@Fraxtil
One Twitter user decided to stir up some trouble in response to this but was quickly shut down by whoever was managing Wendy’s Twitter account with just two well-placed responses.
Wendy’s Twitter account did not stop there and continued to mete out a few more snarky responses to would-be trolls.

One impressed user even expressed the desire to have the job. To which Wendy’s Twitter promptly listed down the qualifications for. The moral of the story: don’t mess with Wendy’s Twitter account. Alfred Bayle
