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?

In various situations...In my work life I tend to exude this professional, well-intended and organised individual who'd never put a foot wrong. Well, that's true, apart from...
1. Losing £30,000 of equipment in a delivery bay mix-up at a well known pharma company. The stuff was meant to be picked up by courier but I hadn't tagged the box and it ended up going in the refuse lorry and is probably on a landfill just outside London.
2. Wrecking two vans at the rail company I worked for - unleaded instead of diesel in one; lunching the gearbox and fucking up the ECU in one go on the other.
3. Telling a kid she'd done 'fuck all' in class. My boss said not to worry, since "no-one believes her, and anyway, I've hit kids in the past and got away with it".
4. Swearing at customers whilst working at a social club in town. Thieving booze from there was pretty bad too.
5. Pissing in various customer's gardens or on their cars if they hadn't given me a tip at Xmas whilst I was a paperboy.
