Buddy got fired for putting one of those "Nice parking job asshole" cards on a truck at work. He thought it was another Tacoma Club member.
He was shocked that the company got so upset about it, he was laughing and took a selfie when he did it, good worker too. |

I work for the railroad. We have inward facing cameras in our trucks, so most people are on good behavior at work. We had one guy who decided to pick up his girlfriend while working night shift. His camera was activated when her foot hit it. The videos upload automatically, so the boss got it the next morning. Apparently, he had a beer in his hand, she had a joint in hers, and she was spread eagle on the front seat! They were going at it like rabbits! Even a strong union couldn’t help him out of that one…

We were doing studies on an instrument and another tech manipulated data to make it look better.
It in no way affected his job or anything, he just pushed the start button and was supposed to upload the results, but took it upon himself to manipulate them to make it look like the system was performing better than it was. It was quickly caught as when anyone else ran it, it performed so so, but his runs were perfect. A download of the data showed he changed the results and then uploaded them. When asked why, he didn't have an answer. Fired on the spot, and luckily before he caused too much damage to the project. |

Guy got fired for pestering an older couple to sell him and old car he saw sitting in their barn.
He stopped once a week asking them to sell him the car. They kept refusing and had asked him to stop. Finally they called the company to complain because he used the company truck. They fired him. |

Donning a respirator and pouring about half a liter of some fairly gnarly acid on top of his head. Per company policy, he was drug tested after the incident. Luckily for him, he failed. I mean, being high is a *way* better excuse than whatever else might have triggered that series of events.

Hosting a porn website on his development server. One guy who handled space increases thought it was odd that he needed so much space for development but didn’t spend any time looking at it beyond just giving the guy more hard drive space. It wasn’t until networking noticed an awful lot of traffic going to and from one particular server that someone started to investigate.

Dude was running a swingers website off a company system. He was asked/told to take it down when management found out.
He moved it to a different company system and "obscured" that by using only the IP address instead of a company hostname. Bye. |

Worked for UPS in the 80's, maintenance type stuff.
There was a change machine outside the break room. . I got change for the vending machine and noticed a carwash token on the floor and picked it up. Same thing happened later that night for a coworker. I left a couple hours early that night. My buddy got caught in a loss prevention search shakedown and was fired for theft. I was lucky. |

Can’t say this is weird but it sure is the stupidest. I don’t know the person but they are in a neighboring yard. Guy lost a minimum 85k a year job over stealing a 8 dollar bottle a gorilla glue from a customers house. The customer had him on camera and gave him the chance to come clean. Dumb fuck got defensive and denied it, so he turned him in with the video.

In college I worked assets protection at Target. Had a regular employee who used to be a salaried manager but his position was eliminated. His almost six figure salary was worked into an hourly rate that was $40 something dollars an hour. Over the years he basically became just a regular Target employee and bounced around departments.
Dude was in his 40’s working a register in the Target garden center making almost $100k a year. Eventually he was transferred to the cafe where they sold hot dogs and mini Pizza Hut pizzas. Sanitary visits where they’d temperature check the hot dogs and stuff he would constantly fail them and started getting written up for it. At the same time customer surveys dropped in his cafe which affected store metrics and he got written up for that too. His solution to improve his customer survey results was to keep people’s receipts for pizzas and hot dogs, then fill them out himself. Then he got caught doing that on company computers on his breaks. That got him fired, from his low level six figure job in a Target.  The nice HR lady was really upset about having to do it but her hands were tied. Guy was a piece of shit thief. He would steal the promotional $5-$20 gift cards from customers when he worked at the cash register, if the customer was not aware the weekly promotion existed. My assets protection supervisor wouldn’t let me fire him for that because Target was not the victim of the theft, the unknown customers were. |

I got written up for providing customers with an unrealistic customer service experience. I was being too nice and helping too much. My supervisor found out because people refused to accept his help when I was off and instead waited until I was there. This pissed him off. So he wrote me up. |

A girl I knew lost her job as a Deputy Sheriff for abusing leave. This girl NEVER had any time on the books - as soon as she'd accrue a couple hours, she'd call in sick. Every paycheck, she had hers docked for taking unpaid leave.
The final straw was when she called in one day, two hours after she was supposed to have gone on duty, and told her Sgt, "Sorry, I'm just still too drunk to come to work today." |

Two guys at work had the same lunch box.
One guy's loving wife always packed his lunch for him. He didn't always know what was going to be in it... One day the other guy found that his lunch had been 'stolen.' He got his friend in security dept to review the tapes and then confronted the 'thief' by laying into him in an obscenity filled tirade. Other dude, unwitting thief, was probably one of the nicest and most polite people that has ever walked the earth. Dbag and his friend in security both gone. |

I worked for a DOT. When it snowed we plowed snow.
One of the maintenance workers met a broad online. Apparently they came upon the idea that bumping uglies in a plow truck would be notable. He shows up outside of his assigned shift drunk and with a 12 pack when nobody was at the shed he works out of and proceeds to fire up a spare truck/plow. He meets chicky poo and they head up I-25, plowing away. In the meantime somebody figures out what’s going on and a foreman starts chasing him with State Patrol and municipal LE in tow. Our boy manages to run the truck off the road, foreman jumps out of his truck and our boy throws a swing at the foreman, foreman takes our boy out with a tackle. In the meantime chicky poo is trying to run through the snow barefoot putting her bra on. State Patrol takes care of her. He gets charged with auto theft in excess of $20k, DUI, hit and run and assault. She gets charged with accessory to auto theft, public intoxication. I would have loved to been a fly on the wall at that disciplinary hearing. |

I didnt know him but he was in the office across from me. We worked for the state of Texas. Uniformed agents and 2 deputy directors escorted him out after directing me to download the vid to a flash drive.

Circa 1980 - Dishwasher at Bonanza Steakhouse got fired because he didn't recognize a dental retainer left on a customers plate and threw it in the garbage. The garbage was a 55 gallon trash can full of food remnants, think hog slop. I/he/we had to empty that bastard in the parking lot and dig thru it until we found the $600. retainer. I was devastated.
Went to work the next day at Sambo's. |

Knew a pharmacist that left his wallet at home (working 14 hour shifts), got hungry but couldn’t order anything Bc he didn’t have cash. Grabbed a 99 cent bag of peanuts and snacked on it till his wife could drop off his wallet when she got off. Loss prevention came in, saw the wrapper on the counter top. He said he saved the wrapper so he could pay for it later. They said he took it without paying and fired him on the spot.
Another guy was fired Bc they took the stools out of the pharmacy across the district Bc it was counter productive. Well towards the end of his 14 hour shift he sat on top of a mini fridge, they fired him. Another pharmacist was fired for taking a nap behind the counter (worked over night and rarely had a customer during the 1 hour gap the system goes down (think 1-2 am). Store manager happened to be looking for him, found him, told the story and it got to the regional or district level. They fired him |

Worked for a trucking company. They hauled stuff for Bass Pro. Bass pro would pay for a whole trailer to and from and use sometimes only a few pallets worth of space. Bass pro had their own door seals. Trucking company would bring those trailers to the shop and take the doors off at the hinges to load more freight if it was going to be near one of our other terminals. The seal would be intact when Bass pros load was delivered so never any issues. Has pro shipped a ton of empty totes back once. Somebody unloaded them and forgot to put them back on with the other merch.
Bass pro never said a peep about them so they sat in our warehouse while the company tried to figure out how or when to sneak them back onto a trailer. They sat around for like 2 years. Someone noticed a stack of them was missing and reviewed the security cameras. Dock foreman clearly loading them into his car. Fired for theft. I got a promotion and about 3 months later the company was like anyone want to buy these for $5 a piece?

We had a couple of service managers who would sniff out gullible customers, and tell them their cars needed massive repairs, and maybe it would be better if they just got rid of the car. Then they'd offer to take the car off their hands for way less than it was worth. Then they'd fix the car for cheap and flip it. After they got canned the company made a new policy that nobody could buy a customer's car anymore.
Another one of our service managers got canned for leaving a bad online review for one of our sister companies after they scratched his new wheels. When "somebody" I know and a couple of his co-workers were 17 or 18 they got hold of their grocery store manager's admin password and created a fake employee in the computer named Quasimodo Dickweed. Mr. Dickweed was about one week away from receiving his first paycheck. "Somebody" and his friends got shit-canned and perma-banned from working for that chain again. |
