'The crew decided to ride [a roller coaster] after hours': 15 Star employees who got fired instantly
You think you know a person… and then they let you down. It's human nature: nobody's perfect, and everybody makes mistakes.
In the workplace, it's all about making the right types of mistakes. Some things can be overlooked by HR, while serious offenses, like stealing merchandise or lying about getting your college degree, will ultimately spell the end of your tenure at that company. U/machewwy wanted to hear stories from managers who'd had to fire employees they really liked, and more than 4,000 people replied!
Although there were a variety of reasons that these supervisors had to let someone go, a lot of them had to do with theft. As an retail employee, it can be easy to want to sneakily steal a shirt or a bottle of body wash. After all, the store makes thousands of dollars per day, they aren't going to miss one little item! But what employees underestimate is how petty stores are about theft. A lot of retail locations have excellent security cameras that capture every angle of the store. And these days, a lot of stores will let people steal over and over again, until they've wracked up enough stolen merchandise to send the person to jail. It's hard to resist that five-finger-discount, but it's not worth the punishment.
Next up, read the exact opposite of this article: here are some workers who quit on the spot thanks to their utterly awful bosses, with one person revealing, "An entire department quit on the spot."
