Weirdest thing you’ve seen someone get fired for?
Curious for some HR stories
Sex in office
I’ve seen a manager and his secretary get caught. She gets fired and he gets promoted. Can’t make this shit up.
That's legit
Stealing salt and pepper shakers from the lunch room
Taking a picture of the CEO in a meeting. No joke, you don’t snap pics of Tim Armstrong. https://www.forbes.com/sites/susanadams/2013/08/14/aols-chief-demonstrates-the-worst-way-to-fire-someone
When I worked at the airport, a coworker was fired for eating out of the fresh cart of extra food for a flight we’d just cleaned. Food service didn’t care if you ate anything inbound, they were going to toss it anyway. But outbound was a very big deal.
Inbound means back into terminal from the plane?
A spent aircraft at the end of its destination. Outbound is a freshly restocked aircraft ready for its destination. I worked international flights, so they were rarely a leg of a trip. These were aircraft coming from and going to Asia.
Stealing a cookie from a cookie factory
For not having a "can do attitude" after refusing to shut up about some discrepancies in the numbers that made her manager look good. Non tech role in non tech company.
Needs more flair
For doing their job correctly. Manager did not like looking bad.
I know someone that got fired from Harris Teeter for eating a donut without paying for it first lol
Sad
