An employee was angry about an unfair policy and was being punished for not complying, and in his anger he threw a chair. This was before my time, but security had to escort the employee out of the building and he was fired on the spot. That story still circulates even though it's been over a decade.

At another workplace some employees were caught having sex.

At another workplace a manager and employees were running a drug operation out of a drive-thru.

There were other things, but honestly humans are so predictable, they're usually:

  • fucking one another
  • threatening, fighting, or trying to kill one another
  • trying to get high or stay high
  • stealing, cheating, or otherwise trying to enrich themselves

So a lot of the stories are of one form or another - employee who always came in extremely drunk and worked her shift drunk for years, only fired after some violent incidents and indecent exposure because of excessive drunkenness.

One employee was homeless and sleeping on the roof of the store, he was caught climbing down one morning.

Another guy was peddling drugs outside the store.

Another employee was stealing stock from the store after hours and was fired after getting caught.

Anyway - poverty is fun, y'all!
