What is the stupidest reason for being fired that you heard of?

[OriginalShroom]

While I support Right to Work, and still do, what is the stupidest reason you've heard of for being fired???

I was fired today from a job because I didn't carry out the trash a co-worker left in the bathroom.

To my thinking, that is almost the most chickenshit reason to fire someone..

What's your story. Can you beat that?

 

[Seawytch]

How about for being gay? That's a pretty stupid reason...

Sometimes they don't tell you the real reason you were fired.

My guess is, you were already on the boss' shit-list for other things you did or did not do and this was a last straw.

It must have been an Obama conspiracy...being that he does everything to keep the white man down. Nonetheless, given that you were in a position where you are taking out the trash for co-workers, I can understand why you think there is a conspiracy against white people.

Has anyone ever really been fired for being gay?

Have you?

At my old firm there was a paralegal who was openly gay and his partner was listed next to him on the employee contact list, just like the husbands and wives of the other employees.

And no one had a problem with that.

It is a talking point I don't ever recall anything in recent history anyone being fired for being "gay". Other have claimed that is why they were fired, but their discharge papers said otherwise.

If your boss told you to ttake out the trash, you should have taken out the trash. This isn't UK where you get to refuse jobs that are not within your "job description."

So you were told because you are "gay" you can not be hired?

I call BS on that one.

You were on the shit list that's a fact. You were prolly told that a thousands of times. The key to getting away with anything is to be better then anyone else.

Mayor Who Fired Lesbian Police Chief Caught On Tape In Homophobic Tirade

Latta Mayor Earl Bullard fired Moore on Tuesday soon after she received seven reprimands, which alleged that she had failed to maintain order and questioned authority, among other offenses, according to a report by WBTW News 13. The reprimands were the first Moore ever received after more than 20 years on the job. What's more, members of the city council said Bullard, who just became mayor in December, broke with protocol by not giving Moore a verbal or written warning for any wrongdoing, or discussing the matter with the council before taking action.

“By all accounts, Chief Moore has served the people of Latta, S.C., well for over 20 years” said Human Rights Campaign spokesman Fred Sainz. “On the surface this looks a like clear-cut case of employment discrimination based on sexual orientation. Without explicit federal or state employment protections, a decorated police chief is left to fend for herself.”

Yes I am sure the far left press like Huffington post is reporting this story correctly. Might as well pull it from daily kos or raw story..

No, I was let go from the public library at age 15 or 16, because the library received a grant that required someone with lower family income. I loved that job, my first besides babysitting. My family was lower middle income but not poor, my father received military retirement plus worked in the DOC.

 

[OriginalShroom]

I wasn't told to carry out the trash.. in fact I had put a note on top of it telling the co-worker that I wasn't his mother or his wife, I wouldn't empty his trash any more. I carried any trash I generated out with me every morning..

In the long run I wish that I had carried his trash out.. but I was trying to make a point and it cost me my job.
