34 of the Funniest Reasons Why People Were Fired from Their Jobs

Having a job sucks, but getting fired sucks way more. Even if you’re lucky enough to have a rebound plan or enough savings, losing your job is still pretty inconvenient. One thing, though, can soften the blow: the reason for termination being funny as hell. From a cell-phone heist gone wrong to a prank war that escalated a little too quickly, Redditors have shared some of the funniest reasons they or their former co-workers got pink-slipped. 

The good news? As long as you’re not like any of these people, you probably stand a good chance at staying gainfully employed.
