Every time you walk down the street people are screaming, 'You're fired!'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't even like firing people. I don't think I've ever said, 'You're fired' to anybody.
'You're fired' was not a part of the deal. And when I went into the first board room, the very first one, I'm looking at these people, and I had to fire somebody, but we never thought in terms of the expression 'You're fired.'
A fundamental lesson on being fired: Never lie about it. People will know what you're saying is a cover-up for how you really feel - embarrassed, discouraged, and afraid.
I never yell or scream. I mean, definitely not at work. I never yell at anyone I work with.
What are people going to do? Fire me? I've been fired before. Not book me? I've been out of work before. I don't care.
It can be liberating to get fired because you realize the world doesn't end. There's other ways to make money, better jobs.
When there's not ten feet of snow on the ground, I ride my bike down the streets of New York, and I literally hear two things out of car windows as cabs pass by me: They either yell, 'Hey, dummy,' or 'Hey, Mayhem.'
Sometimes I wish I could get fired.
When I was living in New York, there was a lot of screaming in my life. I would just get into these altercations all the time. Being in public, dealing with shopkeepers, just trying to cross the street - things like that.
I've never been fired in my life.
