32 Wild ‘Well, I’m Getting Fired’ Moments

‘I had the bright idea to shoot off a potato gun in the parking lot of my company’

If you know you’re getting fired, you might as well go out with a bang. One Redditor’s dad did exactly that. When he was a busboy at a restaurant, he dropped an entire tub full of dishes when making his way back to the kitchen. All of the dishes fell with a loud crash, and everyone in the restaurant turned to look at him. Knowing he was going to get the boot, he picked up the single dish that didn’t break, held it out at arm’s length and dropped it to the floor. He was fired, but not before everyone applauded him. That’s the way to do it. 

Other Redditors have remembered the times they were sure of an imminent firing, and while not every screwup resulted in a pink slip, we can see why they thought it would. To the guy who threw someone else off a roof — this one’s for you.
