Today, I got chickenpox. I'm 28 and having chickenpox as an adult is excruciatingly painful. When I told my boss I wasn't going to be at work today because of chickenpox he replied, "That's the worst excuse I've ever heard. Adults don't get chickenpox." He then fired me. FML

You should sue him. But still, he might have believed you if you said you had "shingles" not "chicken pox". I think your boss might be a retard.

I've had shingles and I can back up the fact that it IS excruciatingly painful. However, at least now you have the opportunity to find another job, and hopefully not work for such an ignorant *******.

Such a stupid FML, you should be happy your retard boss fired you, so you can use it against him. If you're not planning on doing anything about it then YDI
