People share their stories of the worst employees they had to fire

[post_page_title]Don’t play with the pros[/post_page_title]

I managed the tennis court at this Florida resort, and had a new guy show up for his first shift doing tennis court maintenance. It’s a pretty easy job, I just explained the few basic rules. One of them was to not ever interact with the pro tennis players that would practice there.

I left him to start working, and when I go checking on him an hour later he is playing with a very famous female tennis player, and clearly flirting with her too. Fired him on the spot.
