Summary
A pizza delivery driver lasted exactly one delivery before getting fired. A firefighter showed up drunk on his first day. And a candidate with violent felonies asked why the company couldn’t “focus on her personality instead.” In Episode 32 of The Bad Hire, Ken, Nathan, and Emma react to some of the most unbelievable first-day flameouts and hiring disasters yet — from misogynistic pizza drivers to résumé lies, drug deals during kitchen shifts, and background checks that exposed terrifying truths. This episode is packed with stories that prove one thing: People will absolutely tell on themselves if you give them enough time. You’ll hear: – A pizza delivery driver fired after ONE delivery – A candidate lying about education and degrees – A firefighter who got a DUI before his first shift ended – A culinary school grad asking to leave work for a drug deal – A warehouse hire bragging about stealing from past employers – A shocking background check involving a youth organization These stories are hilarious, awkward, and sometimes genuinely disturbing — but they also reveal deeper lessons about integrity, hiring instincts, and why background checks matter more than ever. 💸 Think you’ve heard worse?
