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?

Sorry....
I didn't mean that to read "Rswipe" that's rude.

On topic......Apart from spending all day as a "lurker" on this site (and others)i have done some bad stuff.

A couple of years ago we had a promotion running with a local radio station. It came to the final prizegiving and it was going out live from our showroom early one morning. Pretty much the most important day of the year, everyone had to be in at 8.00am sharp. I turned up at 10.30am still quite drunk. I hid through the back on the instruction of my immediate boss so that the big boss wouldn't find out. This has happened on a number of occasions (twice this year i've been sent home for "stinking of booze"). I work weekends by the way, i'm not some alchy!

I also nearly brought the entire company to it's knees through e-bay. I accidently accepted 5 different bids of less than £3,000. Our stock item was worth £22,000. The lawyers sorted that out i think and we haven't dealt with e-bay since. It is now a forbidden site on our intranet.

There are plenty other reasons i should be sacked, not least the fact that i wrote off my £36,000 company car last week!

Could do with a back-up sales job in the Glasgow area if anyone can help. My lives are running out!!
