Fatal picture
The following story is a typical example of how can you lose your job because of your wife.
Serdar Aziz is a player at Galatasaray who missed the final championship game of 2018 in the Turkish Super Lig. The 28-year-old told the club that he experienced stomach pains (which later told is food poisoning), and thus was exempt against Sivasspor. Instead, the defender went on a family holiday trip in Maldives. This lie was soon discovered when his wife posted a picture on Instagram boasting it they are on the tropical island together with the footballer. The club has advised him to not even bother to return to Istanbul.
