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?

my boss was fired for bullying me oncethat was interesting. Someone else told the company owner that he was being a total git to everyone in particular, and me specifically ( don't know why...) and everyone was asked to give in statements about it, including me.
After his sacking, he walked into the office, said to me "I don't know what you said, Dan - but it obviously worked", and marched off. As I left that evening, I half expected him to be waiting outside with a large knife.
edit - about a month or so later, after quite a bit of restructuring, I had to go to the owner of the company and tell him that I didn't mind if he made me redundant - it was obvious he needed to... He'd "released" most of the staff, and I was wandering around with nothing to do.
