Abandoned the Job
I was fired because I “abandoned my job” while on short-term disability, even though I was on approved leave. They made a date for me to return, never informed me (by their own admission), and when I obviously didn’t return to work…I was fired.
The locker I had at work had my work boots in it that the company pays $90 a year towards. However, there isn’t a pair under $100 available. So, you always end up having some come out of your paycheck.
At that point, they are yours regardless of the company line. They disagreed and said they were thrown out, I reported them stolen, and the HR director responsible for getting me fired was fired. Story credit: Reddit / r48811
