ITT: Books that are cause for firing

[Richter]

Dune, Frank Herbert:  Employees reading this may develop messianic delusions, and attempt to cultivate loyalty based on charismatic personality and noble acts.  Expectation of leaders to model desired behavior may emerge.  Fanaticism may develop in weaker personalities.  Grandiose statements about environment, resource dependence, or the value of knives may emerge.  Have security or law enforcement on hand for termination proceedings, expect drastic responses and cries of "MUAD'IB"

Add books, reasons, etc, as you see fit.  Go!

[The Dark Monk]

Don't forget the rallying if the Imperial Sardaukar, which may in fact cause WWIII.

[Roly Poly Oly-Garch]

In my case, I'm fairly sure if I brought "Jennifer Government" to work with me, I'd likely be asked to remove myself from the premises.

Elaborating on that point from a work computer would probably be detrimental to my future with the company, as well.

^aHouse of Leaves, Mark Z. Danielewski:  Employees likely to be found idiosyncratically measuring and videotaping the office space, comparing their findings with building blueprints.  Reports frequently turned in with excessive footnotes and unprofessional destruction of the fourth wall, mocking potential investors under the guise of a misanthropic pseudonym and providing far too detailed information on the literary undertakings of obsure and potentially nonexistent amateur scholars.  Beware pseudointellectualism¹.

50 Shades of grey: Your boss' wife may have read it, explaining it in crushing detail like their section on nipple clamps. He then files sexual harassment against you.

Also known to cause depression.  Possible madness in the suggestible.  Present termination documents without footnotes, end notes, citations, or trappings of academia.

I work in a VERY advanced hospital and am absent minded enough to leave it on just the wrong coffee-table(s).

Dead on.  For the same reasons as books on the Labor movement, just opposite end of the scale.

Infinite Jest, because carrying around a 1500-page postmodernist book makes you a pretentious douchebag by proxy.
