This question is about reasons why employees get fired.

What do you say when you get fired?

By Zippia Team - Dec. 7, 2022

When you get fired, you shouldn't say anything in the heat of anger, disappointment, or anxiety that you might regret later. A healthy way to avoid spouting your gut reaction is to ask for a moment to process the news, in private if you prefer.

If you want to fight for your job, you can ask if they'll reconsider and what steps would be necessary to see that happen. Regardless, you should do your best to understand exactly why you're being fired so that you can use that information for self-improvement and finding a new job that better suits you.
