You have to be hired in the first place to be fired.

Three times - all of which were for punching someone - once it was my boss, once it a friends boss, and once it was some sales dick at a Christmas party (which was the only KO of the three).
Aside of my aggression issues in my younger years, I have always been a hard and industrious worker, and have consistently climbed the ranks in whatever I do.

It will only destroy what you are not. --Jac O'keeffe

I have three also
The first being my paperroute that I dumped in the canal for two weeks in a row
The second one was a summer job cleaning offices with some friends. My brother stole a bunch of pencils and we all got fired
Third was a more serious job where budget cuts resulting in me being let go along with 50% of total staff
Overall I never have any issues. Im extremely skilled at being efficient so I get away with loads of slacking whilst still get good results

Ain't nothing worse than a theif.. I assume all those in the roles you mentioned were in someway stealing company money or your time at home by fucking up efficiency. We just want to do the job and go home man. Sometimes that's not enough and I applaud you for taking a stand despite it being on the spectrum of what not to do.

Ephesians 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Psalm 12:6 The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. Hebrews 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. Revelation 3:11 Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

Technically, just one, and that was for 3 no call no shows.
Another let me resign, but I wold have been fired if I hadn't.
Two others I was laid off because of downsizing, and another because the business closed.

Way back before cell phones and interwebs 15 yo me got fired (only time) from a job stocking coolers in a convience store cause I was stealing wine coolers for myself and the cute older girl who worked the register. After my shift had finished the girl and a friend picked me up after work with the ill gotten loot to cruise around town. First off it pains me to realize how completely fearfull of pussy I was at the time, with older girls picking me up to drive around and drink wine coolers I didnt even try to get some love, so much cringe in hindsight. So anyways we are cruising and sipping wine coolers and we decide to go by the high school to see who is around after the pepp rally. I saw a friend from another school, who incidentally became a movie star in hollywood, who came over to the car while we were parked waiting for someone else. Friend asked me for a wine cooler which I handed him and then decided to take off. Well apparently principle skinner was behind us and saw the wine cooler hand off. Principle skinner cornered the 14 yo future hollywood star with the wine cooler and broke him pretty quickly to tell where the cooler came from. Fast forward to a little bit later I had the girls drop me off at the school where my parents were to pick me up, since I told them I was going to the pep rally after work. Instead of that happening I was greated by the local p.d. who dragged me and the poor girls into the school to be interogated seperately like an episode of Law & Order SVU.
We all got suspended for a week. The girls got charged with corrupting a minor which is the real shitty part. The convience store refused to press theft charges so the cops couldn't do much else. A few days after the owner of the store called and very apologetically told me they had thought long and hard but decided that they had to let me go. I had assumed that so the call came as a shock and was really touched by their foregiveness.
So that is my getting fired story. Still kick myself for not getting with that girl

I was about to say you can’t get fired from being a land lady then I remembered what happened in France.

One time while working as a chef there was a big banquet, with lots of food, meat, snacks, pastry... some expensive big choloate cakes.
After the banquet, friend of mine kitchen hand, i gave him one of those left posh cakes for his missus, he was very happy

Funny how doing drugs at work can go from the best idea to the worst idea in such a short timespan
"Lets get high at work!"
2 minutes later when everything is weird
"this was a mistake"

It was a tough chapter in my life, ha.
Certainly do not recall the details.. I think I was taking bumps throughout the shift and hit my max.
Only memory is of being sprawled starfish on the ground, looking up to my boss over me, and being fired. (Then having to drive home)

Back when I was an epic wreck in my life, some 10 plus years ago, I was constantly on xanax and/or coke (sometimes dabbled in meth too if my meth addicted coworker at the time hooked it up on some) and would go to work completely blasted. It predictably didn't take me that long to get fired...although probably longer than management would've liked

It's nice to look back a decade and acknowledge the growth and person you've become.
Otherwise, fuck the past!
