I firmly believe that being terminated for cause or marked "ineligible for rehire" should carry lifelong consequences, regardless of the circumstances, and be treated as a felony (just as a dishonorable discharge from the US military is felony-equivalent). Being fired for cause is a serious matter that should not be taken lightly, and it should serve as a permanent mark on one's record. Here's why I believe this:
Permanent Mark on Record: Being fired for cause or marked as "ineligible for rehire" should follow you for the rest of your life and be treated the same as a felony conviction. This is a serious consequence that should make individuals think twice before engaging in misconduct or inappropriate behavior in the workplace.
No Excuses for Misconduct: Regardless of whether you feel your supervisor targeted you or if you believe there were mitigating circumstances, being fired for cause is shameful and should be treated as such. Excuses do not change the fact that serious misconduct occurred. The ONLY exception here is if you were laid off for purely financial reasons, in which case that's not a "for-cause" termination & you'd likely be eligible for rehire.
Equal Consequences for All: Just like how a dishonorable discharge in the military is equivalent to a felony, being terminated for cause should have serious, lifelong consequences. This applies to all forms of misconduct, including but not limited to sexual harassment.
Public Registry: Those who are terminated for cause or marked as "ineligible for rehire" should be placed on a publicly-accessible registry, similar to how the sex offender registry currently operates. This information can be used by prospective employers, friends, and family to make informed decisions about associating with the individual.
Loss of Rights: Individuals who are terminated for cause should lose their right to vote and bear arms, similar to the consequences of a felony conviction. They should also lose the right to both Federal and private employment, as well as recourse to any form of welfare or charity.
As only the opinion of the employer matters here, there would be absolutely no right of appeal for these consequences once the employee has lost their job, no matter the circumstances.
By implementing these consequences, we can ensure that individuals think twice before engaging in misconduct in the workplace and that those who do face appropriate lifelong consequences for their actions. During the pandemic, people have forgotten how to treat their employers with respect; this is one way we could fix that.
Its a new account so maybe a troll? But they have left a bunch of non troll comments so 
shitload of comments from their post history (went overboard oops)
Quitting before about 3-5 years is unethical. Hiring is outrageously expensive and they haven't even gotten a positive ROI out of you yet.
Realistically in the first 6-12 months you shouldn't be taking any time off at all, no matter the reason.
Be grateful they gifted you the opportunity to interview at all.
Taking the job is understandable. Continuing to look is unethical. It's understandable in this permanently horrific job market why OP would accept the job, but that comes with the expectation OP ceases their search and commits long-term to this job.
r/ChoosingBeggars. Min wage is new normal for most jobs.
There's also a little bit of, you lost your job, you kinda have a debt to society to repay.
"What do I tell interviewers in the future when asked about this position?" The honest truth. Your boss didn't like you, so you were fired for cause.
A job is MORE than a marriage actually. You're spending more time with your job than your SO usually (unless you count sleep time... waking hours most definitely). Your job is paying all your living expenses. So yeah, it's deeper than a marriage.
Work's supposed to suck.
Quitting an internship is super shitty, paid or not.
Can't speak for UK but under US social norms, the leaving on short notice/before 3-5 years on the job would get you for sure blacklisted from that company for life, and likely from any other company too.
That is incredibly, horrendously unethical that you broke your commitment to not one, but two companies within ~3 months. People like you are why we need central, public do-not-hire registries.
Unpopular opinion but if an employer gives you the gift of a job in this economy, you absolutely owe them your undying loyalty and gratitude. This is the worst job market ever, perhaps worse than 1929, and it will never get better. If you've been with a company under 5 years, there is almost never a reason you should even be entertaining the idea of an interview with another company. If a recruiter reaches out you should pull the proverbial "sorry I have a boyfriend" card.
Honestly kinda leaning towards this being an actual techbro bootlicker,
no way this is a techbro unless it's a techbro CEO. a techbro worker is a bootlicker but they recognize that the only way to get a raise is to change jobs so they have no loyalty. I'm gonna guess this person is a demonic back office middle manager at some 100 person company based out of a business park in the outskirts of Wichita.
In their post history they talk about working in IT/post in the sysadmin sub.
This might be a one of a kind special edition techbro, because I agree most of them know how job hopping works.
Based on the infantile, dogmatic posts about something so trivial, my hunch is a young adult child of small business tyrant parents. Like they've clearly internalized mom and dad whining about how no one wants to work anymore, and they don't have enough firsthand experience to understand the world doesn't work the way their parents have told them it does.
If they ever worked in IT, it was some nepo internship for mom and pop's MSP tech support company.
In particular this gem:
Like that's laughably false.
