SackedI've never been sacked (yet)... One company I worked for made everyone redundant on Valentine's Day. The boss handed out little envelopes. We all thought he'd bought us cards and were really touched.
...but I've never been sacked. What have you done that led to your dismissal? Are you still bitter, or was it a fair cop?

Their loss? Doubtful.Very recently, I took a new job that frankly, I hated.
All over Christmas I was so depressed at having to go back there, after having only worked there for six weeks, no words can desribe it.
Anyhoo, a couple of weeks before that, I'd been cordially invited to the Christmas party; all expenses paid, 1920's theme.
I went.
It was going well.
I got pissed.
I didn't realise quite how pissed I'd got, until I returned to work after Christmas to be told that they were 'going to let me go' as I had told someone to fuck off and had been somewhat 'sexually suggestive' to someone else!!
I have zero recollection of either faux pas, to this day, but it turned out in my favour! I was given one months money, to just, in my own words, 'fuck off' and had another job within 3 days!
I am still relieved, every morning, that I did that.
I hated that job.
