“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job His last job, he was driving cars from where they were dropped off to where they were sold at auction. He was driving this really nice BMW sitting at a stop sign at the base of a hill. Semi truck carrying logs loses its brakes and slams him at 50+ mph. He then proceeds to t-bone another car while still getting pushed by the semi. Him t-boning the other guy knocked him out from in front of the semi and into another car which had seen what was happening and slid to a stop. The semi went over the hill and landed in the creek at the base.

He got cut out of the car then airlifted out (along with the driver of the semi and the passenger of the car he t-boned) and when he called his boss (after emergency surgery) the boss fired him. He sued the hell out of the company for wrongful termination and he's been living off the money for 3 years.

Two hours into his training he starts talking about wanting to bang the waitresses. The waitresses were the daughters of the owner. The guy teaching him how to make the pizzas was the older brother.

“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job Not me...but happened when I was working at McDonald's. New guy came in and when he saw that we were trashing patties if they had been sitting too long, he ate one...then he started just eating them from the supply...dude must have inhaled 10-12 patties over a couple hours after repeatedly being told to stop. Eventually, he started making himself a burger with the buns and eating it as well. Got fired first day on the job.

I'm still convinced he had no real plans of working and just wanted to see how many free burgers he could eat before getting canned.

“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job I worked in a pizzeria and there was a new driver who was starting. He took his first delivery and when he can back there were no deliveries up so I told him that in between he would have to do dishes and clean.

Wow...the comments are full of boot lickers. If I'm hired to do one job, and that is the job outlined in my contract and that is what I'm being paid for--that is the job I do. If I'm suddenly tasked with responsibilities outside my job description then that means we need to renegotiate my contract. That doesn't mean I'm lazy. That means I'm not a chump willing to be taken advantage of. Some places, like where my husband works, you can get into trouble for working outside what is specified in your contract. Having said that--I would assume a pizza place would make it clear from the get go that drivers sometimes have to chip in on other duties. Most places like that need everyone to chip in everywhere. But down voting people who aren't willing to work outside the parameters of their contract is ridiculous.

Ok, that's perfect. I go in and get acquainted, start taking calls, and hours go by. I'm wondering when I get lunch. News flash. No lunch, no breaks. Independent contractor or not, pretty sure here in the U.S. you gotta give people some breaks and a lunch at some point in a 10 hour shift. Some kinda law about that I feel sure. So I tell my new boss, look, I'm starving, I'm going to get something to eat, I'll be back in an hour. He said if you leave, don't bother coming back. So I left. And never went back.

“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job My wife got a job at Bob Evans when she was a teenager. Her first customer was an older man, and apparently a regular. The customer ordered a black coffee, so my wife bright him a black coffee. Apparently black coffee meant something totally different to the codger, because he wanted it with two creams and a sugar. His response to this adversity was, unlike a normal person who would ask for what they really want, to throw the cup of coffee at my wife. Her entirely reasonable response was to walk away. Her manager fired her on the spot; apparently she was supposed to ask the guy what was wrong in response to getting the coffee thrown at her.

I think it's for the best that she got out of there.

“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job I worked at a summer camp this big country club near my house had as a head counselor. We had the kids all running around this small aerobics room blowing off steam since it was raining outside. The clock in this aerobics room was broken, so we couldn't tell the time. I was told by the camp director to take a specific child to her office at exactly 1 pm so they could be given a medication they needed. So I very quickly pulled out my phone, glanced at the time, and put it away. At the end of the day I was pulled into the directors office and told I was being fired because someone reported they saw me using a phone, and the camp had a strict policy about texting while on the job. No chance to explain myself, I was just told I was fired and to leave. I took off my camp shirt, placed it on her desk, said "Have a nice day", and never looked back. Poetic Justice: That camp went out of business a few months later. A combination of going bankrupt and not being able to find employees.

When we were given a file, we scanned it with a wand thingy so that the system would assign it to our employee number with a time stamp. I was called into the manager's office at the end of my first day and let go. I asked if my work was poor and she said, "no, there were no errors." The reason I was being fired is that I was finishing the files too quickly. "We can't bill the client if you finish the file in less than an hour."

Basically, I was fired for being too efficient.

“I Don’t Do Women’s Work”: 30 Reasons People Got Fired On Their First Day On The Job My company hired temps for this big job. We didn't have a lot of space, so temps had to double up in cubicles. I did feel very bad for them, but some of their actions were hilarious /terrible.

Our laptops require a password to login before doing anything. It's a gray screen with prompts for the username and password. Pretty simple stuff. One guy had his username and password written on a post-it note. He then spent two hours trying to figure out how to login. He didn't realize he had to press enter. TWO HOURS!

Another guy was chugging along at his task. His cube mate was sneezing or talking or something. His reaction? Slap her. He got escorted out of the building. The next day, he shows up to work again like nothing happened. He was escorted back out and told to please not return.

Most of the temps were nice and did just fine. Some made you wonder if they would ever get a full time gig.

I must have handed her a stack of a hundred napkins and multiple straws. But sensing that she wasn't impressed by my napkin game, I stepped it up and handed her a toy from the kids menu toy bin. She smiled at me. It was awesome. Seconds later the boss approached me and asked how I was going to pay for the toy I gave away.

Decided during that time that the job wasn’t for me; I got along with the older ladies working there, but not the teens, who were typical Mean Girls, & it made for a miserable work environment. Had a resignation letter written when I went for my next shift, but the manager fired me at the start of shift before I could hand it over, saying that she had reviewed my training binder while I was off & wasn’t happy with how little I had done & poor quality of it. I just said “oh really? Must have been challenging since it was at home with me,” while pulling my actual training binder out of my bag, & handing it over, along with my resignation letter. Only downside was it was an 8am shift; I could have slept in!

Not fired but oddly rejected. I applied for a job with a healthcare organization. The only response I got from them was when they sent an email saying I was not being considered for a job because I didn't show up for the job interview. I had not scheduled a job interview with them.

My husband and I worked for the same company. Him in the field and me in the office. We actually weren't married yet, but engaged. I had worked for this company before meeting him, and went back after our daughter was born. I thought I had a great relationship with the owners and other employees. There was some shady stuff going on in the field that rubbed him the wrong way and he threatened to call the labor board. He was fired and when I got home after work I had an email from my manager, who I considered a good friend, telling me I was fired as well

We had a IT guy coming in for a test day and I watched him for a few hours doing absolutely nothing. As the boss walks by he said: "Can I talk to you outside for a minute?" and they went outside. As the boss got in again he told us, that the guy confessed to him that he lied in his resume and had absolutely no clue from IT. We used the sentence: "Can I talk to you outside for a minute?" from then on to imply that we also have absolutely no clue how to do our job. ;)

Went to a training event that included cpr (we were dealing with special needs/paralyzed people so kinda required you know). We had an open book test that they went through every question 2 minutes before. I finished super quick and helped the teacher put up the dummies and came back to someone copying off my answers... they were escorted out by 4 managers before the next test started

Boss hired from a temp agency that took on let's say the not smartest or educated non ex prison people. So one kid I have to train. Take one kcup from a box and put in a bag. Continue til empty one in each bag. Get new box of same kind and continue until you have got back to the start. We had a post it note w name. Two. One for the start and one if you paused for a new box to mark where you were. I'm talking card tables lined w lunch bags and all you had to do was just put one in a bag and not lose your spot. As explaining to kid he goes "I gotcha". I said wait I haven't even explained it all and how it's one per bag. Tell him a little more for tricks and all that. I gotcha. Nope. I said how do you got me when you don't know all the steps? He looked at me an goes. I gotcha. I walked away and got the boss. The guy had actually opened a box and was tossing the cups into random bags as we got back. Boss showed him the door. I got to undo the mess. Amazon resales. Hated it.

I was assistant manager for a hair salon that has a mainly male clientele and there's a buttload of tvs that shows certain events that usually has two teams going after an object you throw or hit, if'n y'all get my drift.. ANYhoo so I interview a potential stylist, she has 10+ years experience, loved her vibe etc etc so I hired her and she was shown how certain things are done. Now one the services we provide are hot towels that have been soaked in water and tea tree oil to put on your face as we wash your hair; placed in a steamer by the shampoo bowls. Making them is a simple process: fill a clean sink with hot water, dash dash dash of the tea tree oil, put stack of folded towels in, roll them up one by one, wring em out, place in steamer. NOW. To clean the clipper guards, we have a 5 gallon bucket that you fill about 3/4 up and ONE CAPFUL of barbicide. Sh¡ts potent.

Why not just say, "TVs that show sports?" I don't get it.
