A Half-Carpeted Job
Most of the stories on this list are of people who shouldn’t have been fired in the first place. However, this guy, for no apparent reason, seemed to fire himself. While working his first shift at Panera Bread, he had to vacuum the floor before clocking out. This isn’t too difficult, we assume.

But it must’ve been a challenge for the new guy since, after carpeting half of the floor, he just got up and left. No goodbyes, no can-I-leave-early, nothing. Everyone must have been pretty stunned by his little stunt, but they never got to ask him what was up the night before since he never showed up again. This was probably for the better.
