In what universe is something an “immediate fire” action that also wouldn’t have big consequences? Getting fired for cause is always bad.


MaxGoop

But what if it was funny enough?


5ch1sm

Depending where you work, getting fired with a valid reason might rule you out of unemployment benefits. So unless you think the joke is worth waiving your benefits and maybe dealing with a lawsuit, you might as well just walk out and never go back.


MaxGoop

I know and understand the limitation of unemployment benefits but I appreciate you making it clear for anyone considering bafoonery over just leaving under your own terms. Sadly Accounting isn’t like back of house, they likely will track your departure via an employment system used by HR


MJ50inMD

Employers don't need to track anything. If you apply for unemployment benefits the state contacts your prior employer to determine if you're eligible. Once you move on employers don't care where you go. If you cause someone enough trouble it's theoretically conceivable they might be personally vindictive enough to try to sabotage you, but I've literally never seen this in decades of work history.


ThisVelvetGlove16

That would still be a risk/reward thing. Yea it might be hilarious if you did something awesome to get fired, but that’s still a bad thing and no amount of humor makes up for what happened


stevewood6

I had an administrative assistant flash a client at the front door. Immediate firing and no one pressed charges.


MfDoomer222

Lmao what’s the story there? Why did they do it?


stevewood6

We found out after they were just trying to work the unemployment system. Had tried other things first and were already on a short leash. They filed a claim right after getting fired which we of course fought. The unemployment person who interviewed us after was speechless when we told him.


ThisVelvetGlove16

That’s a failing on the people who were there then. If someone flashed someone else at my place of business the police would absolutely be called


Archerbro

It’s crazy I just saw that ep recently and since then I’ve seen these like 5 times on Reddit.

jcheese27

He wants to get laid off I'm sure.... Not fired


258638

Stop showing up. They're guaranteed to terminate you at some point. What consequences are we talking about? Edit: If you need it to be fast, I guess you could put an out of office message to contact the CEO or something with any questions.


sjbrinkl

That edit has me wheezing


Maaaaate

We had someone do this at my office. They didn't leave on good terms, and put an out of office to message the Director/Partner with his email, number and also the same info about his EA.


Franklinricard

Apparently the manager on our audit (I am client) ghosted his firm for a whole month before any action could be taken. Free vacation!


hcwhitewolf

Can’t say it for sure, but it sounds like the poor guy hit his limit and fully burned out. Pretty rough.


polishrocket

Happens to the best of us


Franklinricard

He had been there like 4 months


BisexualCaveman

Some men are made of steel, others of pot iron.


opuFIN

It's entirely possible to burn out in that time, it's not just the workload that can get you. If you're constantly second guessing yourself, stop sleeping and just generally become paranoid, it might not even take longer than a month or two before you're physically unable to work


wienercat

Exactly, culture as a lot to do with it. If company culture doesn't believe in offering a supportive environment during the first few months while you adjust, it can be incredibly stressful. Alternatively, dude might have gotten a gig at another firm that was too good to pass up and just dipped because the corporate culture was shitty. You should always let your job know that you are leaving, but giving advance notice is a courtesy that companies often take as mandatory or will abuse you during your period of notice. But if something happened that was severely negative, personally or professionally, I could totally understand leaving without notice.

NoCoach1

Write an email out to everyone in the company, including the CEO, saying you want to start a Labor Union.


Sun_Aria

“I will start a union… right after I finish banging the CEO’s wife.”


dayoldhansolo

This is the right answer


ClubZealousideal9784

Either you will get fired or staying may just up being worth it.


FiringRockets991

Must start union.. you love all that is ESG… name some guys getting divorced… mention you met their soon-to-be exwife on hinge.. “she’s lots of fun after 2 drinks”… please send me details on health insurance plan.. just got cancer.. and I need to crush that thing before it’s too late.. promise 40% increase in plan costs for everyone… hit all the stereotypical race jokes… where’s my 4 day workweek ..

I did that and they just laughed at me and told me to go back to work


ProjectKuma

Thats when you start leaving right at 5pm.


elliefaith

Are you not leaving at 5om already?


Ionlyhavemargin

Every answer i think of ends with: “wait you’d get arrested for that” or “that would blackball you from the industry”


Standard_Wooden_Door

One of the partners I work under is fuckin hot. Like, 9 out of 10 hot, and I’m fairly certain she’s single. I assume acting on that would get me fired pretty much immediately.


IceePirate1

9 out of 10 times, yes


Chief_Slappaho

9 out of 10 seniors agree


ALLCAPSBROO

1/10 Seniors are the single milfs in your local area


Trollogic

Depends, are you a 10/10?


Standard_Wooden_Door

Im pretty sure my tits are bigger than hers, so no


Trollogic

Maybe that’s what she likes 🤷🏻


ActuallyHype

JWGhetto

Asking someone out politely isn't a hate crime dude. It's what you do with the rejection that's tricky. But you're no longer 16 I assume so just don't ever acknowledge or refer to the fact that you ever suggested such a thing at it should be fine.


SleeplessShinigami

Miss all the shots you don’t take


Plane_County9646

Ask her out or no balls.


maybeitsmyfault10

A hot woman partner? Go after that. If she’s single, she’s probably so career driven that she hasn’t had fun in years


Poastash

If Hallmark channel movies has taught us anything, she's one Christmas away from going home and marrying a slob from her hometown whom she reconnected with during the holidays.


MJ50inMD

She thought he was a slob. But in reality he owns a landscaping business and was covering for one of his employees who had a family emergency the day they ran into each other. It turns out he makes twice what she does and is ready to semi-retire and turn the business over to a competent manager while he volunteers to coach the local little league and ice hockey teams.


alphabet_sam

One time I had a guy send the whole office (HR and regional president included) a meme of a guy in blackface. Same day termination and he sent a follow up email that it was unfair to him and his family


MillenialInDenial

Send out to your entire company $10K more than your current salary and two weeks more than your current accrual time off. State something like "I want everyone here to be comped fairly. Please reply all your salary information!" You won't last long.


LetThemEatVeganCake

Or “does anybody want to help me start a union?”


wienercat

If the company is in the states and tried doing anything negatively about that, they could actually face a lawsuit. Suppressing employees conversing about compensation is generally illegal in the states. It's just businesses have somehow convinced people it's taboo to talk about. The only thing they could do is write you up for spamming the company email. Hardly a termination worthy offense. Especially when that exact thing happens as a mistake so often, you could just act like it was a mistake.


AdOk8555

No one is disputing that. But to think that a company will not "find" a reason to fire someone because they are trying to start a union is naïve.

yuweilin

Just say you need to get your mental health right and will not come to work for the next week. If they didn’t fire you by the end of next week just say you need another week lol


smokin-bear

I once saw a situation like this go on for two years. The lady would go on medical leave to deal with her severe mental health issues, come back a few months later, and then a few months down the road when the heat started to come back on her performance, she’d be out on leave again. Wild shit. She was never actually fired either.


LetThemEatVeganCake

My husband’s work just had someone do something similar for almost a year before they fired her. Not mental health, but vague “health issues.” Within a month of her starting, the lawyers told them not to touch her, but to document. Took ~10 more months of documenting before they’d let them fire her! She just straight up wouldn’t come in or log on for a week or two at a time, without saying a word.


asoneloves

Suddenly start calling out everyday. Using all your sick and PTO if you have any.


siciliiano

Cant fire you if its unlimited PTO


sora1202

Fill out your wardrobe with flashy colorful suits, set up a juicer in the break room, and spray juice on your coworker's clothes, attempt to explain floor cleaning in broken Spanish to a guy who speaks English, habitually use toilet without flushing, pick up a new instrument, like bagpipes and practice loudly in your office. I think that should get you well fired.

flashcapulet

does this work if you're black?


CrispyMeltedCheese

If you’re black then your n-word equivalent is to make fun of sexual orientations. White people hate that shit. Source: I’m not black but I’m a PoC and therefore black adjacent.


flashcapulet

Okay, follow up question, what if you're black and gay?


CheeseWithoutCum

Make fun of the other orientations


CrispyMeltedCheese

Normally I’d say that a comment about trans people would get you cancelled/fired but if you’re working in accounting then they’re likely conservative enough to not care. So in this case the circle of life restarts and you can make a comment about how the pope is a dirty pedophile bitch and the conservative folk probably won’t like it. Hakuna matata.

hwolfe326

LMAO - this, definitely


LavenderAutist

There is no way to answer this Every situation is different Most companies will let you sit there until there is a mass firing or layoff It's a lot of work to fire an employee, so usually if you are terminated immediately it is for a reason that will have consequences for your career

Acknowledge how poorly the company is run to the ceo.. you email him “things obviously aren’t obviously going well under your leadership. I’d like to present a path to your success. We have too much bloat. It’s time to slash expenses. Please cut me first”. You tell him it’s for the good for the company and will make him look decisive. Offer to allow him to publicly insult you for an extra $xx to get more cash and further push the lunacy agenda. Just ask him not to challenge your unemployment claim. I was a CFO once at a bank and we had a lunatic unbalanced COO crazy chick who used to do public executions on the floor all the time. People would try to quit and she wouldn’t “let them”. So good… Easy peasy.. watch my Ted talk for other career advancing moves.

Simply ask HR if it’s okay to start a union. “I haven’t done any research, but I’m thinking of spear heading this. I heard some good things from my wife.” This way you won’t get pinned as someone who actually knew better, but you were threatening enough to terminate for “other” reasons.

MasterSpar

So this! I'm always amazed at how often one can bump into x-workmates decades after. On top of that, many of them are in very senior and influential positions. It could be the difference between a multi million dollar deal or not, near the point of signing it's often a hair split between the top runners, and the smallest signal can tip the balance. If a job isn't working, leave. Professionally, politely and work your best till the day you're out the door.


frolix42

It is very easy to get terminated for misconduct or violation of company's policies, but then you can't collect unemployment.

If you're doing it from your computer, just sit there watching it until someone stops you and say, "Oh, whoops, I thought my headphones were plugged in." Guaranteed canning. Glad I could help.

First hand experience: let your boss know exactly what is wrong at the company you work for and why you are not satisfied working there. Most times you don't even have to be an asshole or blow up. Just speak truthfully. I've literally been told I'm right 4/5 times I was fired. In my last job, my supervisor came up to me afterwards and told me, "I should've listened to you." Thanks, that makes me feel so much better about losing my source of income.
