You're Fired!

[Richard Prowse]

Okay, we've all seen The Apprentice - that show where the guy with the ultimate comb over utters the famous words,
"You're fired!"
as he pokes his finger at the screen.
This thread is about being fired from bands - believe it or not that's happened to me a few times. No true, it has!
So, fellow bass players, have any of you ever been fired from a band?
Let's hear your story.
