'Boss never called me lazy again': 15+ Empowered workers who told their bosses to 'Fire me...I dare you'

You're great at your job and you know it, so don't let your boss tell you otherwise. These inspiring workers know their worth.

While other countries have excellent protections and rights for employees, America does not have that for every citizen. Most states allow employers to fire their employees for basically any reason, at any time, without any warning. In general, most of us don't want to be fired, since it's a stain on your work history, and your boss might not want to be a reference for you in the future.

However, when you work at a job you despise for too long, you might start to fantasize about what it'd be like to tell your boss exactly what you think of them. Especially because at some places, you know you're the backbone of that company, while your boss lounges around for their whole shift, telling everyone else what to do. It's so tempting to quit or scream at them until you're fired, and leave them to clean up the mess, as well as see how hard you've actually been working. Not everyone takes that path, but these folks below did, and their stories are incredibly satisfying.

Speaking of talking back to your boss… This manager demanded all employees turn all phones off for their shift, so they shrugged their shoulders and did exactly that.
