This is a question 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?

Previous job
08.00 Clock in
08.00-08.30 Tea break
08.30-09.00 Little bit of work (mainly get the newbies to do the hard stuff)
09.00-09.30 Tea break
09.30-10.30 Little bit more work (with two fag breaks, just to keep me on my toes)
10.30-11.30 "First break", just like school
11.30-12.30 An actual hour of work (punctuated with fag breaks, ripping the piss out of Andy Miller til he throws stuff at me, using the office phone to see if I've found a million in my lucky wallet, wandering about looking as if I'm doing something)
12.30-12.45 Preparing for lunch ie. calling up and ordering my lunch so I don't have to waste my break cuing for food and winding down so I can be nice a relaxed for my lunch
12.45-14.15ish Eat lunch, take the piss out of Minge (unfortunate nickname but when he shaved his goatee thing off he was known as Shaven Haven until he grew it back), have a couple of pints)
14.15-15.00 Stand around with a hose making the floor wet, picking on Andy Miller and Dale, smoke fags.
15.00-15.30 Tea break
15.30-17.00 Hide upstairs playing cards, telling Brian we've all shagged his wife, drinking a bit more
17.00 Clock out, another hard days graft finished, it's time for a couple more pints

This is the vague plan of the day, although we did work out one day that shit breaks also accounted for about 45 mins a day and timed correctly meant that you didn't have to do the difficult work as it was miraculously done after your constitutional).
Apart from the early starts this job was fantastic and I don't have a clue how I didn't get sacked
