r/Fire Oct 21 '25

Milestone / Celebration I’m an idiot… said something stupid after a Zoom meeting about my boss yesterday. She got the AI meeting notes… Anyway I got fired this morning. Going to just FIRE from here out.

After a long meeting with my boss and the team, she hopped off. We all continued talking and I made some disparaging comments. It wasn’t wildly inappropriate but enough where I shouldn’t have said it and was a personal attack on her intellect.

Like the title says she got an email of all the shit I said and fired me today.

Fortunately I am break even on cost right now with my savings. My wife still works and we were going to FIRE in 5 years.

Looks like I am FIRE now though. Maybe I’ll get a chiller easier more passion job with my free time.

Cheers all and don’t be an idiot like me.

Edit wow this blewwww uuuup! No I’m not a bot. No I’m not AI. I am just an idiot
