Since I see where this is going to go,
What is the quickest way you could get fired from your job and not end up as a registered sex offender, or with jail time for that matter?

Insulting your boss may be the best solution, or you can just send a letter of resignation

God damn it I just had to delete a four paragraph answer

Refusing to work, just sitting on a chair doing nothing even when asked directly by your boss

At many companies that's not a quick way to be let go. The process would take some time.

At a government job it took an entire year to fire an executive assistant who did absolutely nothing.

Sometimes this actually becomes a quick way to get promoted for some people. I haven’t figured that trick out yet though.

Try to bang your boss. Either you get fired, or you get to bang your boss. Win-win

Banging my boss would be the biggest L of my life

Not wearing the minimum fifteen pieces of flair.

Scream "white power" while giving the Nazi salute every 20 minutes.

Gotta get schwifty!

Whip it out bro.

Step into a machine not locked out.

I have admin on our SharePoint and Teams systems. Just saying.

Talk about the projects I'm working on.

This, I work for a company that deals in very sensitive data. Grab my camera, snap a few pics and spend the rest of my days in Federal prison. Let's not do that.

Open every hydrant in town and leave. Or, open a bunch in different sections and close them as fast as possible causing a hammer effect and making the water mains break. Bonus if it's next to a water tower. I'd never do that though, part of my job is to find said break.

I'm self-employed, so probably dying.

At my old job, my hours were cut to zero after I finally made a single comment pointing out the hypocrisy of my boss's politics. After a year of dealing with him spouting Q-conspiracy every single day he was there, I kind of had enough.

Shit on the floor.

Refuse to leave the CEOs office, and keep acting like it's funny for you to be in there.
