7. The Guy Fired for Repeating a Seinfeld Joke
Repeating a joke or quote many times may bore people but no one can ever imagine that this could lead to job termination. This is what happened with John Preston, a resident of Cedar Falls, Iowa. Whenever someone sneeze’s instead of saying ‘Bless you’ he used to say ‘you are so good looking’. Saying this specific clause again and again could not be considered bad, but in this case this saying was redirected to a beautiful woman, also a co-worker and considered as sexual harassment which leads to his termination.

5. 14 People Fired for Wearing Orange on workplace
Fourteen employees were fired from a law firm in Florida. Florida State is also well known because of oranges (fruit) and this might be the reason that employees in that law firm used to wear orange colored dress on the day when they were expected to get wages especially for extra work. But as soon as new management and executives took control over that firm, they assumed that dressing up of many employees with the same color on specific day is something that seems insulting so they fired all of them.
