Getting fired happened to Winston Churchill and Steve Jobs.
===============================================
Winston Churchill's hideously stupid plan to take Gallipoli from thee Turks in WWI using ANZAC troops as cannon fodder was the diumbest thing the British did in the entire war.
He based his clever plan on accounts of wars fought by Ancient Greeks, which ignored the obvious facts that no one in ancient times had cannons, rifles, mortars and machine guns. Thousands died for nothing. A firing squad would have been entirely appropriate. It would have been more humane than the suffering of the dead and wounded at Gallipoli. Of course, Winston, being an aristocrat and all, considered the Aussies to be subhuman (scoff) commoners who should have been proud to die for His Fucking Britannic Majesty. Had he been an American, Churchill would never have been a part of any government. And who is to say that Englans=d counld not have found an equal or better replacement.
Steve Jobs screwed up as well, unaware as he was of the devious ploys of corporate ownership.
