    Since I see where this is going to go,
    What is the quickest way you could get fired from your job and not end up as a registered sex offender, or with jail time for that matter?

      Insulting your boss may be the best solution, or you can just send a letter of resignation

      Refusing to work, just sitting on a chair doing nothing even when asked directly by your boss

        At many companies that’s not a quick way to be let go. The process would take some time.

        At a government job it took an entire year to fire an executive assistant who did absolutely nothing.

        Sometimes this actually becomes a quick way to get promoted for some people. I haven’t figured that trick out yet though.

    Try to bang your boss. Either you get fired, or you get to bang your boss. Win-win

      This, I work for a company that deals in very sensitive data. Grab my camera, snap a few pics and spend the rest of my days in Federal prison. Let’s not do that.

    I’m self-employed, so probably dying.

    At my old job, my hours were cut to zero after I finally made a single comment pointing out the hypocrisy of my boss’s politics. After a year of dealing with him spouting Q-conspiracy every single day he was there, I kind of had enough.

    Open every hydrant in town and leave. Or, open a bunch in different sections and close them as fast as possible causing a hammer effect and making the water mains break. Bonus if it’s next to a water tower. I’d never do that though, part of my job is to find said break.

    The quickest way I actually did see someone get fired at my place was by posting racist shit on Facebook - on an account that was followed by many of his colleagues, including his manager. He was summarily dismissed at the start of his next shift.

    Another one stole customers’ credit card numbers, but that one ended up with a criminal record.
