Not sure if you’re going to get the boot? No fear. A New York comedian has revealed the telltale signs that someone is about to get sacked — which include keeping tabs on an employee’s every move.
A video detailing these “fire alarms” currently boasts 5.1 million views on TikTok. “I wanted to illustrate the phoniness of middle managers,” Ben Sweeny told Jam Press while describing the warning signs of a pending axe-pocalypse.
The Brooklyn native frequently makes satirical videos that aim to “expose the irony and hypocrisy of the corporate world,” including parodies of managers telling their employees to return to the office and bureaucratic “burnout.”

If they want to fire you they’ll find a reason, or invent one.

Lol. Sometimes the firings are completely arbitrary. All it takes to get wacked is someone in the war room to say “hey he was late on that big report last month,” and boom, he gone.

They tell you something to the effect of... *Don’t worry. Your job isn’t going anywhere*.
Seen it happen far too often.

Correct.
Cheating on an expense report is one common method. If they like you, they will let you correct the "error" if they don't, you're toast.

They tell you something to the effect of... "We really appreciate the work you are doing. We just want to get you some additional help for your increasing workload."

As an employee I’m free to walk anytime...
As an employer I’m free to send you on that walk anytime I want..
Seems like a good system...

I had a manager who berated everyone and drove out almost all. He promoted one guy to supervisor who on his first day said who he would fire in that dept or this dept. He mention most everyone but us but you know he meant us too.
We had new management and the 4 managers above our manager were let go and replaced with people from India... <-
Our manager thought he would be promoted but some lady from India got the job.
That manager knew he was not going to be promoted so he quit : )
The supervisor left 2.5 weeks later and gave no notice to his new boss.
