Default A great way to get fired

I was outside the country and I didn't know about this until today (my first day back at work).

Know this first: A recently new co-worker got fired for calling other co-workers numerous racists words. He has been trying to act like a badass towards co-workers and in front of customers and even tried to act pretty towards the management.


After closing, this co-worker starting to act like himself pushing everyone around and not really doing anything to clock out fast enough. He walks over to a co-worker (who is black) and asks him if porch monkey is a bad word. He then gets told by the rest of the employees to "Shut the hell up!" and finish his section. He then walks over to one of the co-workers (this time a girl) and says, "Shut the **** up *****." He then walks to the back of the store to the books with another co-worker (a guy backing up the girl) right behind him. The co-worker confronts him and tells him to repeat what he just said. He refused. Soon enough, the supervisor was notified and the co-worker was sent home. He called off the next day which was enough for the management staff to fire him. His girlfriend quit thereafter.

Wish I was there.

Normally you wouldn't get fired for cursing unless it was in front of customers. Being a dick to co-workers and using racial slurs is a different story.

This story sounded like Clerks 2 at first lol...

Douching off in front of the customers and to the employees will surely get you canned.... But my white manager at my old job told me and everyone else on the job, all being white that at the time, a handfull of racist jokes. Kinda bad coming from your boss... lol

I just so happen to be watching Clerks 2 right now.

I wouldn't say it is like Clerks 2.

edit: Now it does.
