My Employee Wanted to Be Fired

Chapter 1

I stumbled across a post from one of my company's employees by chance.

"The company hasn't had any income for three months now. It's about to go bankrupt. Please, someone help me figure out how to get the boss to fire me!"

"Oh, and of course, I need every penny of that severance package!"

The comment section was packed with drama-loving bystanders, all eagerly offering their advice.

"Deliberately eat smelly food in front of the boss. Blue cheese for breakfast, pickled herring for lunch!"

"You could play the idiot! Buy Coke for business partners, only order McDonald's when dining with clients. Once you screw up enough deals, the boss will definitely get rid of you!"

"Right! And if the boss can't stand you anymore and fires you, you can livestream yourself playing the victim, accusing the company of exploiting employees. Once you go viral, that's another source of income!"

I stared hard at the poster's familiar face, barely stopping myself from throwing my phone.

The employee bonus slip I'd been signing every single month without fail suddenly felt impossible to sign.

Fine then!

If they hated the company this much, they could all just go home!
