Sacked for 'being boring' | £426k payout for worker who refused to take part in team events

An employee has been awarded nearly half a million Euros after being sacked for not taking part in his company’s team building activities, in a legal victory that was dubbed the 'legal right to be boring'.

Consulting firm Cubik Partners had dismissed the worker for being “insufficient professionally”, mainly because he didn’t get involved during company outings, which consisted of partying and drinking, and outside of working hours.
