40 Times People Were Stupid Enough To Do Something So Inappropriate That It Cost Them Their Job (New Pics)
With the economic crisis and inflation breathing down our backs, many employees hang onto their desks more than ever before. This is understandable, because prices of living are soaring with no end in sight, and that includes anything from rent, groceries, and gas to lifestyle.
Some people, however, take on a more chill approach to work. So chill that it borders on the verge of becoming jobless any minute. And in case they cross that line and mess up real bad, they end up on this corner of Reddit known as “Bye Bye Job.”
Created in 2020, the community is now home to 598k members coming in for the images, posts and stories of people losing their opportunities in life, whether it’s a job or a scholarship. Below we collected the most interesting posts shared on the group, so scroll down.
After you’re done, be sure to check out more ‘Bye Bye Job’ moments in our previous feature.

Screwed With The Natives And Found Out
The racist owner of the Grand Gateway Hotel said she is banning Native Americans from the property. Five tribal leaders signed a Notice of Trespass. Indicating the hotel has violated the terms of a Treaty made with the Sioux in 1868 based on the location of the hotel, and the racist comments made that they say violate article one of the treaty. They instructed the hotel and its subsidiaries to vacate the premises or be held liable.

I love that with vaccines it's 'my body, my choice' but if you're a woman wanting her medical choices to remain between her and her doctor, well... that just can't be allowed.
In your work life, the thought of getting fired for one reason or another has probably crossed your mind at least once. Even if it was a “what if” scenario that had no solid ground in reality, or even if you know all too well that one particular faux-pas could cost you the job contract.
According to recent data from Blind, an anonymous network for professionals, one in five respondents (21%) to the poll which asked “How often do you think about getting fired?” said they think about getting fired every day. An equal percentage of respondents (20%) said they think about being fired weekly or monthly and 131 respondents (6%) said they think about being fired every other day.

Wow did he really do that? I didn't see the footage but sometimes I worry I'm going to be mid-wave to someone and it will look like I'm doing that in a picture, lol. But if he really did...putting aside how horrible it is, what did he think was going to happen? All the work he did is flushed down the drain because he can't control himself. I'm glad he lost everything!

She Hates Leftists Now
L H 2 years ago
Funny how people blame the left when they face consequences for acting like a-holes.
Honu 2 years ago
Yep. They seem to imagine some sort of leftist cabal with a cancel committee targeting them. Nope. People getting "canceled" online is something that happens pretty organically. If you act like an a-hole in public, people end up not liking you. They don't want to work with you or give you their money. Social media gives a-holes the ability to embarrass themselves on a much wider scale, leaving a permanent searchable record. They want to blame the social media companies themselves, or "leftists", or anything other than the fact that they shot off their loud mouths and a lot of people didn't like what they had to say. Then they talk about the leftists being a bunch of whiney snowflakes, while they cry that the world didn't provide them with a consequence-free safe space.

Shot yourself in the foot, I think. Take responsibility for the consequences you brought on yourself. Even better, learn from it and reflect on your empathy or lack thereof.

Why does it seem like her reaction to this excellent advice might well be "Take responsibility? That's snowflake liberal nonsense!" Anything but learning from the experience.

When you blame "the left" for getting fired for being a terrible human, don't wonder why people have certain ideas about "the right". It's so STUPID! Why can't we just try to be good people and think about us as a collective?? This left/right s**t is killing this country right now!

I can't tell from that small picture but she may be asian or ...she's not entirely white. I'm always so confused when people of color or people who are of an ethnicity who have been previously (or even currently) oppressed come out wanting to oppress other groups. Like... you were just railing about this for yourself 5 minutes ago why are you now giving gay or trans people a hard time and how can you possibly not see the hypocrisy? There's a real issue with hypocritical hatred going on right now. I was talking to a BLM poster on reddit the other day and he has all this anti-gay/trans rhetoric in his posts and I'm just like....how can you not understand racists when the hatred they feel is the same hatred you have for gay people? (In particular gay men because people who are anti-gay generally have a more disparate hatred toward men than women.) It just boggles my mind.

It's often just what they learned from their parents, etc. On a smaller scale, people who have been bullied but taught that it's fine to bully someone else for a different reason can certainly still bully others.

Yes, everyone is entitled to an opinion. However, if you’re going to be an idiot and spread hate speech against people you better damn well prepared to face the consequences. If you support hate speech that’s damned sad. Ps- you might want to look up the meaning of fascism while you’re at it.

There are many reasons why an employee can get themselves fired. But what’s interesting is that employees and employers have somewhat differing opinions about what causes people to be fired from jobs, this research from Airtasker showed.
Airtasker’s report was based on data from a survey of 831 individuals who have lost a job and 93 employers, and it had some interesting findings. Respondents who have been fired from a job say they think it occurred because of personality conflicts (30% cite this as a key reason), because their boss was a jerk (23%), because of office politics (19%), and because of poor performance (18%).

Trucker Fired For Participating In Ottawa Protests With Company Truck While Displaying Right Wing Terrorist Flag
- 2 years ago (edited)
The convoy was in Ottawa for three weeks, making noise, polluting, and some visitors harassed locals. I refuse to call it a "truckers'" protest -- most truckers were on the road, working hard. Plus the protest leaders had a petition online that called for firing the government -- and for themselves running Canada alongside the Senate (who are government appointees).
Meanwhile, employers say the last person they fired was let go because of attitude issues (57% cite this as a key reason), because of personality issues (41%), because the person was not completing their job as described (40%), and because of poor attendance (34%).
To find out more about the procedure of getting fired and the hold it takes on both an employee and an employer, previously we spoke with Dawn Moss, the founder of “Your Interview Coach” set up in 2013 to help both candidates and hiring managers through the complexities of the recruitment and selection process.

“It’s a less than easy process to fire someone in the U.K., both legally and ethically,” Dawn said. “In terms of the process, there are lots of factors to take into consideration; reason for dismissal, performance, capability, gross misconduct, length of service, etc.” Although Dawn reminded us that she’s not an employment lawyer, she said that these situations can get complex.

McDonald's Employee Loses Job
“For a manager, it’s tough as they were the person to hire them in the first place and I can imagine there are a number of emotions attached to letting someone go. In my experience, most managers didn’t like getting to the point of firing someone and most have probably supported the person to get up to speed prior to starting the dismissal process,” Dawn explained.
This is why the hiring process is absolutely essential to get right the first time. The career coach also noted that the amount of management and HR time it takes to manage a poor performer is draining.

For those who’re wondering, Dawn confirmed that there’s definitely a right and a wrong way to fire an employee. “There are companies that don’t follow any process and unfortunately, if an employee has served less than 24 months, they cannot usually file for unfair dismissal. There are some exceptions, if an employee feels they are being dismissed because of a protected characteristic, for example,” she explained.

“However, if it’s performance-related or a personality clash, it can be fairly easy to dismiss someone without any warning. Most reputable companies will want to follow a structured process. As mentioned previously, most managers I’ve worked with want to support the individual first and dismissal is a last resort,” Dawn concluded in a previous interview.

Good. We have a semi pro team here. There was one black player on the team. Spectators threw watermelon and fried chicken on the ice. That young man killed himself one night after a game. True fans of sport should admire skill that they don't have instead of being jealous that someone of a race not usually associated with the sport should excel.
