Employers Share Moments They Had To Fire A Person On The First Day

44. Leaving Station

I work in a tobacco-free workplace, and the use of tobacco on the premises means instant termination. We all had to sign papers acknowledging that when we hired on. 

So some people get around it by walking around the back of the building into the parking lot behind us and technically getting around the “no smoking on the premises” clause.

On his first day working there, a new guy would leave his station and walk to the back of the building or get in his car and drive off the lot to go smoke. Each trip would last him about 20 minutes, and he did this every hour. 

He was told to leave on his second day.
