You're Fired!

Have you ever been fired from a job?

Straight out FIRED! Not let go or laid off, but told to your face, "You're Fired!"

Man... who dares tell us about it?

One Time,

It was my last job and it was complete bullshit. At the moment I made sure it can't happen again unless I fire myself.

I was straight out fired on two occasions.

Once, I was 18 and working at a restaurant. I was giving free pizzas to my buddies and skimming some $$$ off the register and got caught.

The manager, whom I really liked personally - and he me, caught me red handed and called me into the back. He was heart broken... he was warned that I was doing this from an annonymous letter (but, I knew who), and just waited for me to fuck myself. He was very emotional when he fired me... but I deserved it. I cried all the way home.

Second time: Another restaurant. I was 22 and the Assistant Manager. Some friends (and yours truly) stayed after closing and proceeded to get pretty drunk on the kegs of beer. My big mistake - keeping one of the underaged employees around and letting him get drunk. He went home, his parents found out and called the manager... I was fired by phone! Nastily and rudely! I never liked the bastard of a manager anyway, and was only working there part time! I had a better job full time anyway!

So that's it. Both when I was really young. Still, the sting of rejection (while deserved in both cases) still feels fresh when remembered. Moreso on the first one, cuz like I said, I really liked and respected the guy, yet I didn't realize that I was directly disrespecting him by doing what I was doing... the second, eh... it was just beer. But thinking back, so much more could have happened, especially to that minor!
