30+ Stories of how "that one guy" got fired

There has been a lot of discourse online (and, specifically, on this site) around workers who have been mistreated by their employers, amid shared stories of toxic workplace cultures, hostile work environments, and even workers telling how they were wrongly fired from their jobs. But what about the other side of it? We're all the heroes of our own stories, but surely every story we read online, shared by a purportedly exploited worker, isn't being told by a reliable narrator. After all—we've all had terrible coworkers and seen people get fired in a wildly dramatic number of ways. So where are all these people? Surely some of them are sharing their stories, painting themselves to be the victim, when really there are specific important details they're leaving out.

These people shared stories of—well, those people—that guy… the one who got fired and well and truly deserved it.

See this collection of stories below, shared across a range of online threads, all asking the same question… Why was that one guy fired from your workplace?
