Share your craziest story about a coworker fired... I'll start. A VP invited a hooker back to his hotel room and she stole his laptop. He told the MD about it and got fired.

Had a really overworked and underpaid/underappreciated guy on our IT team. They outsourced his job and gave him 2 weeks. He went NUTS and fired off this huge manifesto-type email about all the shit he did for the company and how they treated him in return. It went to our entire division including a bunch of folks in regional management. They moved his timeline up and he was out the next day instead.

Anyone witness slackers who got into companies you have no idea how? Had a coworker who does jack chit at work besides chatting on Facebook yet lands at a faang company? I guess if he brings the same work ethic he will be spit out for sure. Or maybe he just had no interest in doing project work.

I just left a very toxic work place.
The crazy thing is they were just named the best local municipality to work for. It's upsetting. They advertise a "culture" but don'tapply it.

How do I recover from this?

I recently had a specialist partner send me a fairly nasty email after I (a transactional first year) was told to ask them to review something ASAP that had clearly been on my partner’s radar for over a week. Why am I taking the (honestly justified) blame for this? Surely it should be obvious that I’m just the messenger here.
