In his latest attempt to get his fans, followers and viewers to open up about their private lives, the chat show host has encouraged them to fill each other in on their career-path pitfalls.
The #WhyIGotFired hashtag has been firing on all cylinders since Jimmy got the ball rolling this week, and it turns out there’s always someone worse off than you in the workplace.
It's Hashtags time! Tweet out a funny, weird, or embarrassing reason you or someone you know got fired and tag it with #WhyIGotFired. Could be on the show!
Coming from someone who was fired after six hours on the hair salon floor, this thread has done wonders for my self-esteem.
Some we agree with, some we don’t, but here are just a few of the most memorable.
1. Since when is the five-second rule not in the constitution?
My friend worked at an amusement park and dropped a piece of rock candy. When she picked it up and ate it, she was fired and escorted out by security. I guess they don’t follow the 5 second rule. #WhyIGotFired
#WhyIGotFired I got fired for asking Zac Efron for an autograph when he was having dinner at the restaurant I worked at... IT WAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OPPORTUNITY
My friend decided to vent on social media about how much she hated her job, she had a lengthy Facebook post & failed to realize she accidentally tagged them in the post. They fired her in the comments #whyigotfired
#WhyIGotFired I was hired as a cashier at a local burger place in my hometown. I didn’t know how to give correct change so I would just round up in whole bills.. lol I was always short at the end of my shift!!!
The day after the presidential election, I called my boss drunk to say I couldn’t face the world anymore and needed time to heal. He didn’t approve my request. #whyigotfired
I got called into my supervisor's office for surfing porn at work. Told to wait at my desk for a disciplinary meeting. Got caught surfing porn while waiting. #WhyIGotFired
I went out drinking and realized it wasn’t going to make it to work next morning so I called in to leave a message but forgot to hang up the phone and recorded me yelling “let’s drink bitches” #WhyIGotFired
