While many 17 year olds are happy to land jobs at restaurants, video stores or clothes shops, that wasn't the goal of one New York teen named Michael Mooney.

Michael Mooney -- or 'Mikeyy' as he calls himself -- is a fairly deft programmer who decided to knock Twitter out of comission. To take out the twit-mecca, Mikeyy crafted a worm do his bidding. The worm was successful, taking Twitter offline for a bit of time over the weekend, depriving untold countless people of knowing what Ashton Kutcher thinks about socks, and stuff like that.

Whether he gave it much thought or not, Mikeyy wrote some dumb messages on the site, one of which was "Twitter hire Mikeyy."

Twitter didn't hire Mikeyy -- but according to ABC News, after claiming responsiblity for the hack, two other companies have sent job offers his way.
