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?

I used to work in a well known supermarket chaindoing 'code control', which was basically checking the dates on items and removing them/reducing them to sell if they were out/going out of date.
I actually walked around talking to colleagues for eight hours a day, getting paid for it.
And I cost the supermarket £10,000 in damages by not doing my job and letting things go out of date, etc.
I got fired. But not for doing a shit job. It was for moving away and not talking to them for 11 weeks. I never even got my letter of dismissal through, just got told by a colleague over three months after I stopped turning up.
