You're fired!..then what?

I agree with you younginlove. I'll definitely be disappointed that my employes have decided to terminate my employment, so I'll try my best to make them regret it during my last day of work. Then I'll make sure to leave a good impression on my co-workers so they'll express their regret to my boss/es. But at the end of the day. I'd really want to know why I was fired. So if I didn't do anything wrong, I will speak to my boss in private and make sure to point out that he or she is making a terrible mistake. If they hire me back, I might join the company if it's a really good one, but if not then I won't accept the offer again because for me, getting fired is really an insult to my capabilities and skills!

I certainly would want to know why I am being fired first of all, but when I think about it, I would be ready to walk out of there as quickly as possible. I would not want to stick around if I knew I was being canned. I don't care about the reason...that doesn't matter to me. It's the fact that they didn't let me know at the end of my shift. Something like that would be something that we should be told after my shift is over, not before it starts.

Depends on why i was getting terminated. If i felt i was unjustly fired i would say something rude and walk out. I acutally was let go from do to say down sizing i would finish my shift.

It would always be better to finish the shift and leave on as good of terms as possible. Bear in mind that your next potential employer will be calling the place that fired you. Do you want them to say what a great worker you were or would you want them to say you were a jerk?

Most employers want former employees out of the building as quickly and quietly as possible after employment is terminated. They don't trust that there won't be some retalitory action on the part of the fired employee-- a reasonable enough concern.
