Some of us didn't have enough tiger blood in our veins to endure the antics of Charlie Sheen this year – evidently, neither did his boss at Two and a Half Men,Chuck Lorre, so Lorre fired Sheen and replaced him with Ashton Kutcher. Yet, we can't help but think the real “Torpedo of Truth” for Sheen was that this was all an act. After all, he settled his wrongful dismissal lawsuit against Lorre and Warner Bros. for a reported $25 million. We'd call that “WINNING!” all the way to the bank.

LESSON: There's a right way to quit your job, and a wrong way.
