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?

When I were a young'un
I struggled to think of stuff I'd done that was even remotely mischievous (I'm a bit of a wuss) but I remembered a few things from the part time jobs I had at weekends and as a student.
Fun time-wasting activities included trolley jousting, seeing how high we could climb the racking, going to the furthest end of the stockroom to "look for an item" and sitting drinking tea, pretending we couldn't find items when customers were rude as fook, tying people to shelves in the stockroom with cable ties, trying to fit people through the hole in the top of the step ladder (and getting stuck), having a bit of naughty fun in the stockroom...this was all teenage-ness though. The job wasn't that bad, it was the customers that made it soul-destroying.
However my second job for a well known supermarket sucked ass. In the end I got so fed up I just didn't go in. I'd had some time booked off as annual leave and I didn't go back when I was supposed to. Good thing was, I'd been such a goody two shoes the entire length of my employment that I just said I thought I'd booked the time off and they believed me.
I love my current job, with the exception of the internet allowance. They've completely blocked B3ta under the category "Tasteless", which I had to laugh at!
