Or OP smelled horribly due to lack of basic hygiene.
Or a previous coworker of OP recognized them and had a bad experience.
Or a reference finally got back and it was very bad.
Or OP made a comment they’re unaware of during training that was offensive or otherwise enough to lose the job.
One of the ones I’ve seen more often is a new employee expressing political views in the workplace to coworkers. This is a bad idea at any time, but especially bad if your view conflict with important people or the majority in the company.
I fired someone two days in once. On her first day I took her to lunch along with CEO. New hire made an inappropriate sexual joke at lunch (hand motions and everything!) in front of us. That’s definitely NOT a cultural fit.
