'[He] changed his job title to Ninja Computer Wizard': 15 Odd circumstances that led employees to get fired

When it comes to the pizza delivery driver who was fired because he couldn't find the house and just ate their pizza order instead… I understand where he's coming from. I'm not saying he did the right thing, because there's a family out there who ordered pizza and didn't get it. I just think he's relatable: it's hard to follow directions sometimes, and it's easy to get lost, and well, pizza is tasty. He probably got paid for one shift, and got to eat a free pizza in the meantime. He's an agent of chaos, as a lot of these people who got fired seem to be.

One person asked managers to explain their "favorite firing" moments. Getting fired can be a terrible experience for employees, so firing a person who really deserves it must feel so righteous. When you get to show the door to the worker who's constantly late or who antagonizes their coworkers, it must be a good feeling. You can check out a bunch of these great stories below.

Up next, beat the heat with some mildly infuriating moments of summer, like one person who complained, "One of my four children dumped a half gallon of milk in the freshly filled pool."
