This is a question Why should you be fired from your job?

I spent three years "working" in the Ministry of Agriculture carefully crafting projectiles out of folded paper and drawing pins that I would then fire at colleagues with an elastic band. On discovering I'd been conducting all-out warfare when I should really have been in a field counting cows, I was asked to "reconsider my career options" outside the service.

Why, then, should you be fired from your job?

Not me but my old man...
He's dead now, but he had a great job in the summer holidays while a student in the 1950s working at a "Country Club" on the "English Riviera" in Devon (read "Torquay"). His job was to paint the white and yellow lines around the club roads and paths. As he'd been up all night having a whale of a time he'd crawl out of bed at 8am, pick up his brushes and paint, go back to bed and kip some more 'til lunch (provided), go and retouch a couple of lines 'til 5pm and then party again. Six weeks every summer. All paid. They never noticed (those were the days).
