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?

Should have been fired...
I worked for a top accounting firm. Our manager was a total flake and alcoholic. Literally everyone complained about how useless she was to HR and the partners. Result? Fuck all.
So what do you do when you hate your boss and can't be bothered to do come in and deal with their shit? Called in sick over 20 times in a year :-) Almost always on a Friday or Monday as pointed out to me by the nice HR woman who warned me that they wouldn't be paying me any more sick days. I quit after that and got a better job. They had payed for me to pass all my exams by that point anyway.
I actually do even less now, for much more money. But that is another story...
Edit: Forgot the icing on the cake was that the incompetent bitch had lied through her teeth and wasn't even qualified. Seems no one had bothered to see if her name was listed with the institute. Whoops.
