When employees get fired from their jobs, they are granted the rare opportunity to reveal every single secret they learned about their colleagues while working. They have nothing to lose or gain, so they can do whatever they want with little to no consequences. Say you knew one of your colleagues was about to get fired, and then you got fired yourself. You can choose to tell that colleague that they are about to be fired, so they can at least be better prepared for the day they will suddenly fi…

"The joy as I said, 'No thanks, I'm the manager and I will never book you again.'"

This is definitely not the tone you want to set before firing a bunch of people on your team! This boss had the audacity to send a team-wide message to boost everyone's morale by including the overused colloquial statement, “just remember that in da clurrb, we all fam.” Yes, it was written that exact way, and no, this message did not get the intended reaction from its audience. Instead, this toxic boss's employees responded with confusion, frustration, and eye-rolls about how outdated and despe…

In case you've never considered it before, yes, you can get fired at your job orientation . It probably makes things easier for the hiring team. Why bother hiring a person who can't even make it through the first few days of the gig? Some people get hired at a job , but they make it clear from day one that they're just utterly uninterested in doing work for even a minute. One guy chose to only work from 10 AM-12 PM each day, which is iconic of him, and I wish him all the best. Another woman bec…

Getting to do what you always wanted to, ever since you were a little kid, is something very few people can claim they achieved. Think about it, how many people do you know who can actually say they work in their 'dream job'? If one does manage to work in their dream job, they might have to work extra hard to keep a firm hand on it. You never know when will be the day your boss might get tired of you, and losing a job you actually love is a lot harder than losing a job you couldn't care less ab…

One manager is finding out the hard way that they were too hasty in firing a few of their teenage employees. Next, check out some terrible birthday presents that people shared that made them shake their heads, like one person who “got a check… for $5. It bounced and cost me $10.”

"They ended with 11 new complaints over the course of a week (not even counting the ones from years past from past employees who also left because of him)."

The anecdotes about this telemarketer have made it crystal clear that he's the problem. His form of petty revenge after he got let go only further proves that he's got a twisted mind. Creative, mind you, but twisted nonetheless. The Redditor who recounted this story begins with some background information about how as a teenager, he blamed his girlfriend for having a bathroom accident in his parents' vacation home… and that's not where bathroom accidents end in this story. Of course, it shows e…

"I'm being encouraged by management to 'reflect on my life to figure out where it all went wrong'..."

No one wants to get booted from their job unexpectedly, but these people had some pretty embarrassing reasons for losing their jobs ! Have you ever had one of those friends who will tell you the wildest story you've ever heard, and then expect you to take their side even though they're clearly wrong? A lot of these people are just like that, displaying the most unhinged behaviors at work, and then expecting their bosses and coworkers to side with them. I know those HR PowerPoint sessions about…

"They fired me over email, while I was on vacation. I just can’t understand how people can treat someone like that."

Is it really even petty revenge when you revoke your recently ex-employers' access to your personal software that you paid for and were only using for your work out of goodwill? At that point, you're just reclaiming what was rightfully yours, to begin with, and since the company had been effectively leasing your software license, you might as well go ahead and send them a bill for however long they had been using it, too . It's not your fault if they can't properly invest in the resources neede…

You don't know a good thing until it's gone: a phrase that is applicable to so many areas of life. And it fits quite neatly in the sense of employers This media designer slowly found themselves, over time, burdened with more and more responsibilities that were unrelated to their own actual role, over time eventually taking on the equivalent roles of “at least” four people. Finding themselves on the hook for their own materials and equipment as if they were a contractor despite, you know, being…

More often than not, when someone isn't pulling their weight on the team, you'll find that your team leader is remiss and unlikely to do anything about it. Preferring to let their weight be shouldered rather than attract the attention of the higher powers. See, it stands to reason that, in most organizations, no attention is the best attention; as soon as the powers that be set their sights on your team, it can be impossible to shake it off, with their increasing scrutiny and weight bearing dow…

This dude's former boss had an interesting idea of what loyalty meant. It's an odd query: should you shop where you work ? If you work at a restaurant, would they expect you to eat their food? Or if you work at a clothing store, would your boss be offended if you showed up wearing clothes from a different store? It depends on the workplace, but it's a bit strange to force requirements like this on your employees. I mean, don't show up to your retail job wearing the competitor's clothing… but wh…

Fur babies are JUST as important...
