A social media intern at Mydin won the Internet over by daringly tagging the company's director in a tweet to ask for a full time job
The unnamed intern who runs hypermarket chain Mydin's Twitter account first caught the attention of netizens after he revealed that he will be leaving the position by the end of December.
"Sorry we can't continue because this admin's internship is ending this month," said a tweet on 23 December when a netizen thanked him for the continous entertainment on the page.
After many expressed sadness about him leaving and jokingly threatened to unfollow the account, the intern decided to make a last ditch effort
Tagging Mydin's managing director Datuk Ameer Ali Mydin himself, the intern wrote, "Okay, stop threatening me. Salam datuk @ameermydin, can you make me permanent?"
He also added a pleading face emoji for good measure.
In an unexpected twist of fate, Datuk Ameer Ali replied, "Ok"
Funnily though, the reply came on 1 January, a day after the intern was supposed to leave.
Fortunately, as of writing, it seems the same guy is staying on to run Mydin's Twitter page, garnering praise and cheer from his fans online
Impressed netizens poured in to congratulate the intern for deservedly scoring the full-time job.
The new social media manager has also been celebrating by posting tons of hilarious memes that fans have come to know him for
In fact, after the whole incident, Mydin's Twitter account has also skyrocketed from 6,000 to 25,000 followers in less than a week
And the popular admin is not going to let the company forget that impressive achievement anytime soon.
Keep up the good job, Mydin Twitter admin!
