Fire Me, Please
http://www.cbs.com/primetime/fire_me_please/
This new four-episode reality series follows two people starting new jobs on the same day, with the goal of intentionally getting fired by 3PM. To most people, getting fired seems like it would be the end of the world, but what if getting fired meant you could win $25,000? The person that gets fired closest to, but does not go past, the 3PM deadline wins the cash prize. Hidden cameras capture the action as the participants drive their managers and co-workers crazy with outrageous behavior |
:lol:
Was thinking more along the lines of showing up drunk, naked, with self-mutilating bleeding cuts on my body and dried vomit on my chest. |

True. But it would be very entertaining!! -popcorn-
|
I would think the easiest way is to target the human resources personnel to do the things that will get you fired. Overtly, be a racist, a chauvinist, a sexual harrasser, a drunk, a violent jerk, a vandalizer.

The Chappelle skit for the kinkos like place from season one comes to mind.

I gotta admit this is a pretty funny idea. It does stink of getting old fast though.
|
I'll check it out.

Premieres tonight (June 7)
I'll have to remember to set my Tivo. Sounds worth a look. They should tie this in with "The Apprentice" where they put a plant on that show. |

How did I not hear about this until now? |
EW gave this a terrible review -- said it wasn't funny at all.
|
I think it would be funny if the "bosses" were in on the joke, so nobody could get fired.
|
What qualifies as getting fired? Does the boss have to say “You’re fired!” or would being tossed out face first into the street symbolize being fired?

I believe that throwing water in someone's face would technically be assault. |

Or darts. I bet you could get fired for throwing darts at a board meeting, especially if you yelled "Aw shucks!" every time you missed the bullseye (not sure if cussing could be breaking some minor law, so keep it clean). |
Is it against the law to scream at someone very loudly and constantly?

If trees could scream, would we be so cavalier about cutting them down? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason. |
