    Font - ло Selios21122d My first job was in a small grocery store and my boss asked a coworker to do the dishes in the bakery (baking pans, etc). She replied: "I only do my own dishes, somebody else put these here so I'm not doing them. I'm serious. Fire me if you want, I won't do them." Boss says "Okay then, don't bother finishing your shift, goodbye!" ... Reply 1.5k

    Font - BigNotGay420 • 2d First day at work, hired by a temp agency. Me and one other guy, we put stuff in boxes and tape them shut, stack boxes on a pallet. He can't keep up, can barely use a tape gun and decides its time for break. Goes to the lunch room and takes a lunch. It was the bosses lunch, he stole the guys meal his wife prepared for him. Boss man came over 15 mins later and wants to know who ate his BBQ, sticky fingers and BBQ on his shirt he denies it. I just look at him and the Boss

    Font - HtownTexans • 1d 1 Award I worked at a coffee shop for slave labor and during the holidays they would sell gift cards "buy $20 get $5 free". So at the start of the shift we would "buy" a gift card and use it for all cash transactions. Every time you hit 25 we put 5 in the tip jar and bought the next gift card. Corporate loved our gift card sales lol. 42.3k

    Font - Beestung 2d ● Worked at an ISP back in the 90s and had a guy working late shift. Found out quickly he wasn't answering the phone at all, but just playing video games. He was warned. Next day he walks in to work with a Voodoo2 graphics card to install in his work computer to improve the game playing. Fired before he sat down. Reply 6.7k

    Font - Xalibu2 • 2d Similar, but it was the bosses daughter. Also not boobs. He loudly exclaimed "look at the turdcutter on her!" Boss was standing not more than ten feet away and well within earshot for how loud he said it. The business was mostly customer service, so a few other passers by also heard it. Guy was there less than a week. Didn't bother me, he was rude and a creep. Bosses daughter was 16 I think at the time. Underage. 3.1k ↓ ...

    Font - davisherm 2d ● The guy responsible for opening the shop on Saturday morning went out and got blitzed on Friday night. We showed up to work to find his car in the lot but the doors locked. He didn't answer his phone. Had to call the owner in to get us inside. Guy was fast asleep, under his desk. He was gone before you could say hangover. Reply 5.1k

    Font - PheonixKernow • 2d I had a friend who managed a bar. She got caught on camera staying behind with a male customer after closing, drinking bottles of Cristal without paying for them and fucking him in the bar area. The owner saw it on camera the next morning, went to the bar, found the main door unlocked and open, money still in the till and her asleep in her room upstairs. He banged on the door until she woke up, they had an argument and she walked out and went to her parents house. She n

She takes a real order or two and then it gets slow. She asks to duck out for a minute to smoke and never came back. Register ended up being $100 short that day. Reply 2.1k

    Font - Wild Billy Boy33 • 2d I was on a new team hired for corporate sales. They trained us as a group. We were given the task of creating a presentation with graphs and charts to show how we present to a group and given pointers on how to improve. One guy shows up an hour late, waltzes in and says he's tired from the drive in and says he needs a coffee before settling in. We are in suit and tie and he's wearing a dress shirt with a huge eagle on the front and jeans. He comes back a few minutes

I got up to the managers, we walked over and escorted him out. He was there all of 2 hours. On his way out he's knocking over chairs and screaming that he'll be "waiting for us in the parking lot". Fuckin nuts. ... Reply 5.6k
