Yes, I got fired from my very first job when I was about 16.. ?

I was in a long-distance relationship, and had arranged to go and see my girlfriend for a week over the Christmas period. Unfortunately I'd forgotten to mention these plans at my interview. They were quite generous in giving me a week off, but it was the wrong week and nobody was available to swap.. So I ended up having both weeks - and although I know it was reckless, I'd like to point out that I did make it absolutely clear to them that I wouldn't be turning up for the week that I was scheduled for.

Needless to say that on my return, I was promptly called in to a meeting and sacked on the spot! Looking back, I can't say I blame them in the slightest. Like I said, reckless..

Nope, I work for myself so this isn't an issue for me. Unless I want to fire myself, sometimes it really does cross my mind.
