‘He stole the CEO‘s lunch': Employees Share the Weirdest Reasons Coworkers Got Fired From Their Jobs

These are the type of stories we're likely to hear more often from now on: employees performing heroic tasks in defense of human beings in the fight against bots. It's not that the bots are mean, bots don't have intentions, it's that they are sometimes created only for optimising companies' expenses and needs, and not for helping us, their confused and tired customers.

Employee is forced to talk to customer service bot instead of a person and ends up developing another bot to run up the company’s AI bill: 'Maybe they'll provide customer service now, instead of foisting the responsibility on a chatbot.'

All around the world, employees struggle with this type of manager, the one obsessed with everyone looking servile and energetic, who will stop at nothing to achieve the desired look. The part that not every manager considers is that to become servile and energetic, employees need to be at least a little comfortable and, hopefully, unconcerned about knee pain.

Manager obsessed with "professional appearance" says cashiers look "lazy" if they’re sitting down and bans chairs completely during shifts. ‘Within like 2 weeks, the front end became a disaster.’
