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?

Rent-a-motorI used to work for a well known car rental company (rhymes with Hertz)
Picture the scene, it's Friday afternoon, it's 4.45p.m and I'm due to finish at 5, got the whole weekend planned. Back at the garage ready to go home when my dispatcher (hitler-esque, balding woman) decides that as I've been there the least time I have to go and deliver a car to a customer that lived 30 miles away. So I'll have to drive there, wait for this twat to get home then wait to be picked up so I'm not likely to be back until 7 at the earliest.
So off I go in a brand new VW Golf GTI (6 miles on the clock when I left)
I managed to get stuck behind a tractor on a dead straight section of road so I decided to stretch the Golf's legs a little as I'm passing the tractor I notice a very sharp bend approaching so I slammed the anchors on but to no avail, through the bushes, rolled it 5 times down an embankment.
Net result, one truely fucked golf with 28 miles on it and the sack.
