I just posted a reply to the thread on jobs, and decided I'm more interested in the creative ways you people have left your jobs or been fired for whatever reasons.. like blatant neglect :P
At least some of you have to be misfits, so post yer stories here please. I'll even start you off with my own tales of degredation:
I worked at a fast food restaurant some years ago which obviously blew ass, except for the chance to mess with people's heads through the drive thru speakers. At any rate, I was fired from there for saying the words "smoke dope" after every sentence like a subliminal message for like two hours. Would you like a salad with that? (smoke dope). Some guy ordered nothing but dozens of breadsticks, I asked if he had the munchies, I think he called my manager later. Huzzah.
As posted on the jobs thread earlier:
"the last day o my previous job (like a giant family fun center/pub/arcade/night club/horse racing) I posted big signs on the bulletin boards in all the men's rooms saying that according to new company policy, they would no longer offer their services to white people, sorry for the inconvenience. Apparently security was looking for me about a half hour later.."
that's all, it amuses me even if i AM an idiot, i look forward to see if anything's posted here.

I used to call my old boss a cunt in the hope he would fire me. But he thought it was a joke. So then I parked my car so that he couldn't get out and then took the bus home. When I got home I left the answering machine on. The next day I claimed I never realised I had done it and that I was at a brothel all night. Still I wasn't fired so I had to change tatics.
For a whole month I did no work, sent porn to everyone in the company, I would be late every morning.
I was asked to resign after I sent a picture of a puppy saying the words 'lick my cock' to the printers for the new leaflet for a light reflector.
It was so much fun.

Life's not fair.
I get constant threats of banning for being too vague. I needn't say more must I?

I had this shitty office-job a few years back. I used to go to the toilet and sleep for half an hour on the floor.
didn't get fired though.

Ya, I was an "outbound" mobile phone sales rep. I really really disliked my boss, she lied about my job decription, she was a racist, anorexic and all she would listen to was top 40 and new country (Alan Jackson, Dixie Chicks - spew), so i would show up in the morning, gather my stuff like I was going to sales meetings and either go back home to bed, or go on roadtrip out of town with the gorgeous man I was having an affair with!
I quit right b4 I knew she wanted to fire me.
