Rewards for Being Fired

Apparently, getting fired is not all bad these days. A group from Silicon Vallery handed out a free Caribbean vacation to the person with the most pathetic story of how they got fired.

Garrison, who lives in Highlands Ranch, Colorado, said he never thought he would be rewarded for getting fired. Then again, he never dreamed he would be fired after he ate two of the six pieces of pepperoni pizza left over from a company meeting.
What he didn't know is that several other employees had already worked out a plan to take the leftover pizza home with them.
When they discovered one-third of the leftover pizza pie had been eaten, the employees reported Garrison to management, ultimately leading to his firing last November -- a month after he ate the food.

Makes me wonder if going thru all of the stuff at my work is worth it. Then again, I am not one who wins contests, so with my luck I'd wind up broke, unemployed, and vacation-less.
