I’ve never been fired, but, a co worker was in this situation.

In high school I worked at one of those jump places kids have parties at. It was tickfaw 200 weekend and I told my boss I wasn’t coming in. She said if you don’t, you’ll be fired. I said okay, and left it up to her when I didn’t show up.

A coworker I was kind of seeing at the time called in sick, but came with me to the camp. She was fired when she posted a picture of us on MySpace, and I kept the job because I’m too honest.

I tried streaking at a Yankees game because but was too shy to get completely naked so I wore a flesh colored body suit

Unfortunately I didn’t get fired, and actually got the name ‘Body Suit Man’

Years and years ago i recorded the smoke break times of every employee for a month.

I presented those times to the boss and asked that since i don’t smoke, can i have the same allotted time of and leave early at the end of the day?

This was not seen as a very welcomed thing

Nothing I did but when I worked at DIA there was a guy doing snow plowing and he was hotdogging in his rig. He spun his rig to fast and slammed into a plane. Not only was he fired he was also arrested. When I saw all of the cop cars, company cars and airport cars by the plane I knew exactly who did it and what happened.

I showed up to work one day. Worked hard, and then went back to the shop. Two brothers owned the business, and one hired me without the approval of the other. When I got back, the other one fired me. I was pretty dumbfounded

Stupidest thing you've done to get fired.



Fired from first real job after college.
We were in line at lunch a Souper Salad in Plano ~October 1999.
I said to a coworker that our Boss "sucks and swallows the CEO's jiz". A secretary from another department(also our boss' wife's BFF) was behind us in line.
I was fired the next morning.

I was fired from a Domino's Pizza for running around the store with a broom between my legs and poked the Manager's wife in the butthole with it.


I was fired from selling LSU Football programs in 1991 for getting blackout drunk and dropping my money all over the counter when turning in leftover programs. They called my HS coach(that's how you got the job) and that was that. I don't remember any of it.
Damned Red 10K and Vodka.

I was an intern at DOTD in college and they actually LET employees take 'smoke' breaks who didn't smoke. I would go down to the break room where they smoked and read magazines, suckin in all that second hand smoke just to get away from the desk.

Share your job related frick up story here.


My first job out of college was with a small consulting company. The owner was really sleazy. He did consulting for businesses he had ownership interests in and paid himself that way. The job sucked. it was a ton of work, I did all the books for 7 different companies.

He was selling off some businesses and I saw the writing on the wall that he didn't need as much staff, so i just stopped working and posted on TD and applied for new jobs all day for about a month. I thought I could make it through to the end of the year doing almost nothing, but he ended up firing me 2 days before Christmas

Worked at a tire place.

Rotated rear tires on a GMC 3500 dually.

Apparently I did it wrong, because when I got to work the next morning that truck was on a flatbed in front of the shop with no wheels on the drivers side rear and 8 very twisted lug studs. The manager was very...cross.

Scary to think about what could have happened.

I had a co-worker who did a phone interview while we were all on a conference call but she forgot to mute the other phone. There were 20+ people on the call. Needless to say, she wasn't on the next one.

Mid twenties I was on a work sales seminar in Dallas for Grant Cardone. Was knocking back drinks in the hotel bar the night before and someone told me what room the speaker for the seminar was staying in. Got lit up some more on booze and coke and decided I wanted to meet the guy around midnight or so. Didn't have a job when I got back. I was a F'ng moron up until my late 20s when I got sober.
