One and a half times.

Once because I admittedly got lazy after my focus shifted to my then girlfriend, and I was also let go during a probation period at another job, but I don't know if that counts since several of us were dropped at once.

Only once, when I was young at a shitty retail job

Told a customer to go fuck themselves when they threatened to get the manager because they thought my service was lousy

Got the ol' multiple day suspension followed by a termination combo

No, not technically.

My very first job in high school was at Target. I was hired as a seasonal worker for three months to be a cashier and work on the sales floor. I thought I did a decent job, but one day I made a mistake on the register. A customer gave me a $100 bill and I accidentally rang it up as $1,000. Although I gave the customer the correct change, she reported me to my supervisor, who then said I could no longer work as a cashier. I was kind of hurt by it because I enjoyed cashiering quite a bit. After the Christmas season was over, I was not renewed to stay on full-time and I suspect that's why.

I'm not really sure. Maybe because the receipt showed $1,000 instead of $100. Or because she was just a Karen.

At the time Target had a quota system cashiers had to meet too. You only had so much time to complete a transaction. If you were quick enough you got a green score. And if you were too slow you got a red score. You had to stay above a certain percentage of greens. I remember always being above 95%, which was great, but I thought that left more room for mistakes since you were always trying to be as quick as possible.
