Losing a job is an emotional experience. Not only does this put your competence in question but it also damages your financial security. Furthermore, sometimes you’re told to leave even when there’s no fault of your own, which is exactly what happened to Reddit user TulThrowMeAway.
The story was simple. They were working remotely and everything seemed fine until it didn’t.

However, the employee decided to make the shipment as dreadful and as expensive for the company as possible.
