    Colleagues stand up for employee fired for being late

    An employee who arrived 20 minutes late for work, for the very first time in seven years, has received immense support from his colleagues.

    When co-workers learnt of the said employee’s unfair termination, they all decided to report late for work. In fact, all the co-workers of the fired employee have decided to arrive late for work daily until their employer reinstates their colleague.

    The incident came to light via a Reddit post and many netizens have expressed shock at the incident.

    The post has gone viral and the concerned manager has been criticised for the injustice meted out to a loyal employee.

    In another interesting incident, a man who was fired from his job in Calgary, Canada, went about destroying his employer’s property.

    His demolition act was capture on video by shocked bystanders, and needless to say, the video went viral. The disturbed and visibly upset employee decided to use a bulldozer machine to demolish his employer’s lakeside property.

    The 59-year old former employee was charged with mischief and fined £3,200 for his act. The footage that was posted on Twitter was accompanied by a message that read “You can’t make this up. A disgruntled, fired employee from a marina near our lake house snapped and destroyed the entire marina with an excavator.”

    It wasn’t just one building that he destroyed. The damage he has caused will cost millions to repair.
