Lost my job and my friend did too (vaporized super spicy candy in company microwave)

Never fooled around in your workplace then, that sounds unfortunate.
I wonder if you could weaponize it in another way. Grind it down into a fine powder, put it in a little sandman like satchel and if you're ever in a situation where you're in physical danger from another take a pinch and just blow it into their face like Bloodsport.
I assume the original item is designed to be licked, extremely cautiously.
Original poster, basic common sense should tell you an extremely spicy sweet like that is going to contain some extremely volatile substances in solid form. Heating it up in a microwave, intending to melt it, would necessarily vaporise the most volatile part.
Don't try that ever again.
Holy fucking shit. That is some extremely reckless behavior!
Once my boss's wife came ( she rarely comes to visit ) started bitching at everyone ( she co-owns the business ).later She tried heating her bagel in the microwave . I think she put it in there for like 10? Minutes and forgot the bagel was in there and went to do something else.
I remember seeing her put the bagel in there but I left after that, out of nowhere the smoke detector goes off and you see this huge ass smoke coming out of the microwave lol and i hear someone yell who fucking put a bagel in the microwave . Shit was on fire.
My boss quickly tried to turn the fire alarm off but he couldn't for like 5 minutes :|
His wife shows up and is like guys you shouldnt do this and disaappears. I told my boss who it was btw and he didn't say anything other than show dissappointment in his face. They have a terrible relationship.

This is a parade of bad decisions.
1.Fucking around and not doing your job.
2. Bringing a 9 million Scoville spicy food to work.
3. Using a company microwave to try to melt it.
4. Not watching the microwave to the point where it vaporized, causing an evacuation.
5. Admitting you were responsible.
I would have fired you too. There's so many points here where you could have just not screwed up.

What the fuck do people who work in offices actually do? I never hear anything about their job, only that they have abundant amounts of time for water cooler conversations and whacky hijinks.
I feel like I need to quit teaching and get one of these jobs.

Spice boy 1 & 2.
If I worked there I'd try to push those as nicknames. You know, if you weren't let go.
But hey, you gave your coworkers a story to tell.

It doesn't depend on the workplace, or it wouldn't be a workplace
You think the weaponized spice gas is a cover up to something deeper? Like Superman III.

We're going to, just outside on a burner. Will let you know the results.
To be fair, I was on lunch.
I guess my workplace isn't a workplace then. Maybe a work-most-of-the-time-and-fool-around-pretty-regularly-place?
Two of my coworkers shot nerf guns at each other two days ago. Yeah, we should be working, but at the right kind of place, there's always time for shenanigans.
One of the ones playing typically does more work than anyone.

Actually we were going to eat them, not pass out. Everyone knows we eat really spicy stuff and won't accept anything from us anyway.
We snuck some of our dad's ultra spicy "hot sauce" (one of those ridiculous Scoville novelty products, not actually intended for food) to school one day, daring people to taste it. Most of our friends would dip a tiny drop out and taste it, then freak out about the heat and drool on themselves for 20 minutes.
Well, one of our friends came over and said, "I eat tobasco sauce all the time, I'm not scared of hot sauce!" and scooped a huge glob out with his finger. We yelled at him to stop but it was too late and he swallowed like three tablespoons of it.
He ended up passing out and having to go by ambulance, I think because his throat swelled shut. We almost got expelled for that (witnesses verifying that we told him not to do it is the only thing that saved us).
Our dad was really mad because we wasted so much of his hot sauce.

There's work that do, just not 40 hours worth each week if you're in a lower position. My thing is analytics, I look at numbers and then change things based on how they turn out.
Should I work harder, probably, but it's not like they're gonna pay me more. Seeing a guy who works twice as hard as you make $1 an hour more for the longest time was one of the least motivating things. And I arguably do two peoples jobs, he does 4.
* single handedly creates new reporting system to better communicate our work for our clients 2 years ago *
"Can I get a raise?"
"Sorry, not just yet, but we're gonna hire these new people at a better rate first".
Being able to goof off from time to time is what makes any of that tolerable.
Fascinating that you'd want to share that information. That's one of the dumbest things I've ever heard, if true.
there's kind of a difference between fooling around and pepper spraying+ 700 people that feasibly could have killed someone. I get OP did it by accident but it was a stupid enough thing to do that I can understand why they were fired.
Why not ask the OP instead of presuming.
That's like someone getting mad at me because I went to GameStop during my lunch break. "Well obviously you were just going to play this here for the rest of the day and not do any work."

Chill with the hostility. It sucks yes but it was just an accident.
I don't. They warmed candy in a microwave. It turning into pepperspray would not be something I could ever anticipate.
Yeah you nailed it, I go to the office and do nothing all day.
I also go in the summer.
OP... I mean what were you thinking. Sorry you lost your job but c'mon.
