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.

These days that could get you a promotion

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.

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.

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.

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