'Within 15 minutes, I lost access to everything': Company celebrates employee's work anniversary only to fire him the very next day

As much as companies love to say that the workplace is just like a family, we all know that these people are not your family, sometimes they are not even your friends. Your boss doesn't see you as a family member, and they do not hesitate to toss you aside the moment you do not profit the company the way they expect you to. I don't know about your family, but it is definitely not how mine works.

The employee on this Reddit story learned these facts the hard way. A mere day after the company celebrates the employee's two-year anniversary in the firm, he is invited to a call in which he gets fired immediately. 15 minutes after that, he was no longer a member of that "family". The employee, shocked and hurt, was surprised to learn that the same thing happened to 25 other employees… Some family.
