20+ Managers who had to fire their worst employees: 'He left with over $4,000 from the cash register'

These managers all remember the worst employee they've ever had to fire, and they shared their stories, telling exactly how it all went down. 

Every job has that one employee who just cannot stay out of trouble, try as they might. They're the one that the manager dreads seeing, because they're probably going to be late, or they're going to spend the whole shift on the phone arguing with their terrible boyfriend, or they're going to be taking constant breaks to sneak outside and avoid actually working. But some do even worse things than those relatively harmless actions — instead, they're stealing money or committing serious offenses that will absolutely lead to punishment, if not an outright firing. 

Some employees find ways to skim money and avoid getting caught for years. If they take a dollar or two per shift, who's going to know? Well, with cameras set up in most workplaces, they're bound to get caught eventually. One clever employee took this a step further, and set up a shell company with his sister, which he then referred his business to. Of course he got caught, though. Why? He was insisting that his current company run things through his shell corp, and no one else. Sigh… the unethical things people will do for money are never-ending!
