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?

Will have to be careful how I pitch this ...... as I have discovered a few people in my office are 'lurkers' on B3ta.
About 2 years ago myself and 5 others were dispatched to work on a new installation at an alternate site. We soon discovered the work ethic was somewhat 'different'. As all of us were contracted to work in W12 we soon found the loophole that we had to be THERE for 9am. Then we caught the 0915 shuttle bus to our other site, arriving around 10am. Then breakfast. Around 1030 start 'work'. Do about two hours of hard graft to catch up with the wiremen.
Lunch break (in the bar - looking at the fit girls in nurses uniforms from Holby City).
1500 - Bit more work just to show willing.
1615 - Coffee break.
1630 - Catch Shuttle Bus back to base.
1715 - Bugger off home.
We kept this up for 6 months. The best bit was when they blew the main power to our part of the site. We had no power, so couldn't do any work ... so we arrived, went to the pub / bar / park and then went home.
AND AT THE END OF IT ALL WE ALL GOT LETTERS TELLING US WHAT GREAT JOBS WE'D DONE AND ASKING US TO BE THE SITE ACCEPTANCE TEAM ON A MULTI-MILLION POUND NEW PROJECT!!!
