Bug in the new point-of-sale software that the managers couldn't fix caused a small (under $200) sale to not process correctly. Was terminated for money mismanagement. Mgmt was so incompetent that they lost one of their best sellers, and ended up paying me unemployment through the lockdown because they couldn't defend the termination to the unemployment office.

All software gets tested. Some is just tested before release.
