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?

So many times...I have actually been "let go" from every job I've had in one way or another. Whether it being for redundancy, laid off or just plain fired.
The worst one, though, had to be when I was working for a certain "Blockbuster" company hawking videos. I was the Assistant Manager, pretty good at it too. I would stay hours after closing on days the District Manager would visit just to make sure everything was perfect.
I would come in early.. yada yada yada. The Manager was a bit on the bitchy side who used almost every excuse to get me into trouble. One day, I was called in to the office and sacked, quite harshly, for renting a video for my pregnant wife on my account. Total cost was $3.95. I then immediately found a job working for an Advertising Agency where I was salaried and all.
I went back and thanked her for sacking me.
