45 Outrageous Things People Did That Got Them Instantly Let Go From Their Jobs (New Pics)
If you’ve worked at the same company for years, you might start to become a little too comfortable in the office. It’s great to show your personality around colleagues, but remember, it isn’t usually appropriate to be your fully uncensored self while on the clock. Unless, of course, you want to show your true colors, so your boss knows that it’s time to say, “sayonara!”
And if you want to learn from the mistakes of others, well, just keep scrolling, pandas. We took a trip to the Bye Bye Job subreddit, a community dedicated to calling out employees who made egregious mistakes, and compiled a list of their most appalling posts below. From displaying problematic behavior to making offensive remarks, it’s shocking to see just how awful some so-called professionals can be. So enjoy scrolling through, and be sure to upvote the people that you would never ever hire!

Ammosexual Dfw Meteorologist Just Lost His Livelihood And I’m Here For It
The Bye Bye Job subreddit has only been around since 2020, but it has already amassed an impressive 650K members. So clearly, there are plenty of people out there making terrible mistakes that cost them their jobs! From behaving inappropriately with colleagues to posting hate speech online, some people just don’t know how to behave, regardless of whether they’re in the office or not.
But it’s great to have a space where we can hold people accountable for their actions, and if this online community contributes to making workplaces safer and healthier, that’s a huge win! We sincerely hope that no one on this list reminds you of your own boss or coworkers, but if something seems familiar, it might be time to have a chat with HR.

While we’d all like to believe that we know how to keep things professional at work, it’s clear that many people don’t. And being around inappropriate colleagues can have a huge impact on your job satisfaction. According to a 2025 survey by iHire, a whopping 75% of employees in the United States say they’ve experienced a toxic work environment.
And over half of employees have actually quit jobs due to receiving poor treatment at work. When it comes to what kinds of toxic behavior most workers have witnessed, many reported that their company’s leadership showed a lack of accountability, displayed favoritism or bias towards certain employees and displayed unethical behaviors or practices.

Florida Judge Who Blocked Teen’s Ab*rtion Loses Re-Election
Christian Nationalist judge in Florida, who blocked a 17-year-old's ab*rtion because he said she was too dumb, loses reelection. Jared Smith sought to save his job by rallying religious conservatives. "I'm a believer, I'm a judge and I'm a Christian," he declared while campaigning in a church.
It’s also clear that you can work in the same physical space as someone yet have an entirely different experience than them. iHire's survey found that nearly 83% of employers would rate their work environment positively, while only 45% of employees would say the same. And over two thirds of workers who have escaped a toxic work environment reported that there was poor communication across the board in the company.

Unfortunately, just because someone is a problematic boss doesn’t mean that their actions will actually have consequences. When it comes to why that is, High 5 Test notes that many just refuse to admit fault when they’ve done something wrong. And if no one reports them, the higher ups may not even realize that there’s a problem. At the same time, their problematic behaviors can often go unnoticed for a long time. If unhappy employees simply quit without saying anything, it can be challenging to find the root of the issue.

US Soldier Kicked Out Of Army After FBI Says He Enlisted To Become Better At K**ling Black People

I'm a combat veteran, an older one at that, and not american. With more than three decades of experience I may just hold a little grudge or two against the US military (which they'll be devastated to hear I'm sure), but the like of Ivan down in the comments below have no business talking about things they don't understand.
Another tactic managers use to get away with inappropriate behavior is to be extremely productive or always present. If they’re meeting all of their deadlines, showing up early each day and very involved in their team, it might seem like they’re a wonderful boss on paper. However, if you actually speak to their workers, you might hear a different story.

Titley initially denied the allegation, telling police he intended to "secure" the cash and take it out to family members. However, he later admitted theft and was given an 18-week prison sentence, suspended for 12 months.
He was also ordered to carry out 120 hours unpaid work and pay £530 costs and a £187 victim surcharge.

In my opinion he should have been given jail time. Make an example out of him so no others get the same ideas. Abuse the power of your station? Suffer the consequences!
A bad manager can also fly under the radar if the higher ups simply don’t want to go through the hassle of removing them and finding someone new to take their place. What if they can’t find anyone better? And how much money will the onboarding process take? They might be under the impression that it's best to just keep them around if they’re not burning the place down, especially if the entire company is dysfunctional.

When trying to oust a toxic boss, check if there are any external reporting options that will be safer than going straight to HR or the higher ups. And make sure you prepare and present your case well. Then, when it’s time to execute your plan, Manage Better recommends sticking to established reporting procedures. If you’re successful, all of your efforts will have been worth it.

Amazing how much hate and a buse come from the party of "morals". If Conservatives want to stop cancel culture, stop being such awful humans.
Beak Hookage 4 months ago (edited)
It's always the same pattern: they declare that being kind and helping people is "weak". Then they show complete contempt, hatred and gleeful cruelty toward other people who have done nothing to them. Then, when they themselves need kindness and help, they are shocked, SHOCKED and OUTRAGED that nobody gives a rat's rear about them. Whereupon they start screaming about being persecuted and treated with "intolerance". They never seem to realise that by taking that stance of cruelty and rejecting kindness, they have waived their right to expect it themselves. They've effectively banished themselves from civil society by being completely antisocial, and that's the price you pay when you do that. Nobody wants to be friends with a horrible, selfish human being, let alone one who is outright gloating over the suffering of those weaker than themselves.

What about the story of Lara Kollab, She was a first year Medical Resident in Ohio, and was outed as having made on Twitter comments like "Jews are Dogs" and that she would give the wrong medicines to Jews if she ever had one, etc. She was fired, and Ohio revoked her medical license and banned her for life. 1 year later she got a new Residency in California by lying about her past ( saying she left for a family emergency, not that she was fired, and using her mothers maiden name to avoid being googled). She was fired a second time, and banned nationally from the Residency database and got banned by many states from ever practicing medicine. She cried to the media that she was a victim and that she had over 250k in debt from medical school (ironically she went to a Orthodox Jewish run Medical School)
