When they told everyone they could go, he shouted “I’m off like a prom dress!”

Little extreme to be let go for this.

I have fired people on their orientation day, usually not due to their actions but due to their reaction to someone correcting their actions. I have also stopped people from getting hired all together, I had managers that worked for me that finally figured out not to send through unsuitable candidates for their final interview with me because I wasn't rubber stamping their bad decisions.

I didn't fire him but had a hand in it. We had a new hire working with me on his second day on an aircraft 100 hour inspection. (Guy lied about his experience) I told him we needed to change one of the aircraft tires. I asked him if he had ever done that before (he said yeah) and told him the maintenance manuals were available to him and ask if he had any doubts. So I'm working the inspection and I look over and he is unbolting the wheel halves with the tire mounted on the axle and still aired up (Which will kill you dead). So I ask him what the frig he is doing and he's like I'm changing the tire like you said. Gone.

Second guy was a hard charging go getter...one day he was walking under an aircraft on jacks and misjudged the clearance and smacked his head on the trailing edge of a flight control. So he's on the hangar floor flopping around like a fish and turning blue. Long story short after airport ems shows up its found out he has epilepsy and lied about his medical background. Hated to see him go because he was a great mechanic but was a liability.

What was in the box?

Air, the box was empty.

The box was for the discharged employee to put his personal items in to take home with him.

3 days.

Chick gets hired and says her grandmother dies so she is off Friday.

Then proceeds to go to the beach with someone who worked there’s niece. The aunt saw it on social media’s and that was all it took.

Apparently got the call while at the beach. Wish i could have heard that call

I started a job with a guy who sexually harassed a woman on our first day. And not the subtle, subjective type of office flirting that can be interpreted in different ways, but rather hardcore, indisputably over the line sexual harassment of a stranger.

To my surprise, instead of firing him, HR made him go to workplace sensitivity and sexual harassment training on his second day.

Later I asked him about it and he said "aww man, that was a bunch of bullshite" He also said he would have just denied it but he said "I left a really raunchy note on her desk and she gave them the frickin' note!" :lol:

Had an intern show up to the first day of the orientation in flip flops and a tank top

I run a warehouse ,our labor department is connected to the warehouse. We hire people for our field work out of that office. I know it’s construction but we have guys show up in flip flops, PJ’s, and pants hanging way off their arse. Our poor labor manager gets so frustrated. I seen people quit the first day. I put a 18 year old kid working beside a 61 year old man( nice guy) to show him what we do. At lunch he quits , tells me that this work is to hard and not enough money. I told him you should have stayed in school because this is life

I saw a guy give two-day notice, as in I’m dragging up to-day.

He said he was from a place called On A Motherfricker’s arse, and his boss was making him homesick.
