“I have never seen our HR manager run out of her office so fast.”
Here’s what they had to say:
1.
Said he wanted to ‘take it home and mess with it in his spare time.’

This was also in the mid-teens, in a company that really didn’t like WFH."

He was out before I could even blink an eye."

“I hired a temp for data input.
On her first day, a guy pulled me aside and said, ‘She can’t be here.’

Apparently, one of our full-time employees had a restraining order against her.
Not sure what the order was for, but my guess is stalking.”
Forks straight into the siding, it was hilarious."

“I was bartending at a sports bar in Hell’s Kitchen.
The new guy is training on the first day, supposedly with several years of experience.

He attempted to shake a Jack and Coke and, of course, covered the bar in his mess.
Didn’t come back for day two.”

Hilarity and dismissal ensued."
After his orientation and paperwork, he finally got to his cubicle.
However, that was not what got him fired.

“Fighting with a customer by getting in their face and yelling at them.
The dumbass thought the company owed him loyalty for being an employee.
Oh boy, wait until he learns.”

The boss fired him before he clocked in."

13.
It was likely at least a $500K job.
After his first day, he takes his team (about 30 people) out for drinks and apps.
Still, this isnt anywhere near enough to get him fired; just an odd choice.
His behavior was recorded via phone.
The next day, he had a meeting with HR and was terminated."
“You know deli counters at supermarkets, the machines used to slice the meats?
Someone got a job at said counter and refused to use the slicer.”

I can’t believe it.
Do you think you’re able to give me a ride?'"
“I laughed out loud and sheepishly said, ‘Sorry, dude.
I’m kinda working right now.’
He thanked me anyway and walked out of the building.

“He was a first-day blackjack dealer.
He took in $5 cash and exchanged it for a $500 chip.
Gaming took his badge shortly after.”
“They pushed the emergency stop red button when there were signs everywhere saying do not push unless emergency.
Corporate needed to perform an investigation before work could resume.”
