  9. I was fired from my job about 4 years ago for playing poker at work lol.

    I had been working at a real estate office for a few months, opening 4 or 5 days a week. I basically opened the office, put out signs on sidewalk and that was it. The real estate agents would stop by throughout the day to use computer, meet with clients, etc. It was the best job ever. I would play games on the computer and surf the web all day. The best part was that no one cared.

    Anyway after a while there was an opening at the main office and I became the front desk/receptionist. I wanted the job because there was a pay raise and the days were consistently M-F.

    On my first day after a few hours I became bored so I dl'd FTP and goofed off in some play money games. After what I thought was a good 1st day I leave and get a call from my friend later that night asking if I downloaded a poker site @ work. I told her yes and that I didn't think it was a big deal because I had nothing to do. She said the boss (obviously) did not approve of this and I was fired.

    Moral of story: Don't play teh pokahs @ work.

    Wow, the receptionist position paid BETTER than your previous position?

    I'm hoping you have a vagina. Otherwise, please turn in your man card for admitting (and bragging about) that you were a receptionist.
     
  11. I was a server at a restaurant for about six months and one day i decided to 1 up everyone and wear some expensive brown shoes to work, the dress code was black shoes. The manager confronts me and we get in a argument i tell her that i only answer to the big dog and that it was my fucking restaurant. This was on a busy Friday night in the kitchen, after the confrontation i walk back on the floor like nothing happened and continued to wait on my tables, until I see three security officers from the mall so i walk outside and see three cop cars. At this point i was mad pissed so i started threatening the cops that I'm gonna sue them because they were banning me from the mall. My manager comes outside all shaken up explaining to the officers what happened (all over a pair of shoes) My puffy north face jacket was still inside, so the officers tell her to go fetch it for me, at this point I'm thinking I am gonna go to jail once she finds the lead pipe in my pocket.(I kept a lead pipe because the Mexicans working in the kitchen were pissing me off and if shit was to go down i would be able to take them with my pipe) Luckily she comes back outside and hands me my jacket without finding the pipe. So i continue blasting the officers and the security officers before getting in my car and driving off. Three months later the fucking restaurant closed.

  15. I worked at arlington park racetrack about 3 years ago... I got fired and was re-hired back the next season because they changed upper management and I guess they didn't realize they canned me the previous season, it was very funny. It was a pretty sweet gig, was making $10/hr basically to show people how to bet and stuff that were having parties out in tents/suites. The only downfall was that we had to wear uniforms which were brutal on hot days. I would say that 90% of the days I worked I would leave 1-3hours early, I would still clock out but I would just get bored as hell and peace out. I did this for 3 years and they were all so passive the worst they would say was "You know you should probably stay the whole day." The event that got me fired was when I no called/no showed on 4th of July which is the biggest day of the year becasuse they do a huge fireworks show. I got so hammered the night before I didn't even get out of bed til 7pm the next night.
