10 responses to 15 Employees That Definitely Got Fired
Oh I remember that cat one. What manager fires someone because they taped a picture to the microwave? I’m sure they were fired because they’re a shitty employee and that was just the last straw.
To be fair, the person who ordered the party supplies is pretty stupid. The field she filled in is for delivery instructions. It says it right there. It’s not packaging instructions. You can’t realistically expect the company to read every single label they stick on a box of their merchandise. It’s a fairly automatic process and its generally understood that if there are any delivery instructions, it’s the goddamn delivery driver’s problem.
I have a hard time understanding what the customer expected. Did she think that in absence of special instructions, the package was going to be shipped in a giant purple box with the words “party supplies” printed on all sides? And if so, what did she think the warehouse associates were going to do if and when they read her note? Send an assistant out on a run to the box store, to get an entirely different box from what they use for every single other package they send?
Just track the frigging package and arrange to pick it up before your mom does. It’s not rocket science.

Mailman cant be fired, because unions.
No, the union won’t protect an employee that repeatedly violates rules. I’very seen plenty of union workers fired.
As a former mailman, I agree. You’d have to steal something. The Postal Inspectors will get you for that.
Woman in our town was finally fired for embezzlement. Long overdue.

Yeah I don’t get this customer either. This shouldn’t go under “employees that got fired”, it should go under “clueless customers” or something.
I remember the taco bell one. Those were stale taco shells that were going to be thrown out.
See, you say that…
I’ve seen much worse.
Including guys dropping pubes in the fish batter.
No, really.
never eating fast food again!
