If you spend three hours of your workday putting a chair together, I can sort of guess at the reasons why you were let go, to be honest...

If the new chair was the highlight of your job man then you shouldn't be too sad. Speaking of which though, your boss will probably take your new chair. Make sure you loosen a few screws...

Aren't they supposed to have someone to put that together for you, or did you order the chair & waste 3 hours of paid time putting it together...might explain being fired..idk, just a thought...either way, I agree...FYL.

3 hours? To put together a chair? No wonder if your boss witnessed any of that, specially during work hours.

This is what happens when you take 3 hours putting together a chair rather than doing your work.

When you have 3 hours to put together a ******* chair, I think it's time to reevaluate your position in the office.
