Today, I got fired from work. Why? I finally took a stand for myself and confronted my coworker of writing things up in my name for herself, and it getting deducted from my check. So she went to the manager and accused me of sexual harassment. FML

Today, a customer at work became violent and started hitting me and my coworker. Not wanting him to get the shit beat out of us, I used a move that pinned the guy on the ground. The police came and he was arrested. I was then fired for assaulting a customer. FML

Today, my sister got me in deep trouble at the store I worked security for. She "dropped by to say hi" and stole a bunch of things when I wasn't looking. I wasn't arrested, due to lack of any evidence. But my boss didn't care about evidence and fired me anyway. FML

Today, I was fired for being a very happy and perky employee. According to my boss, it freaks both the customers and my co-workers out. FML

Today, I was fired from my job for sexual harassment. I was shopping after work, and I had to get my female manager to give me a package of extra-large condoms from the lockbox. I could not convince her that I was not flirting, and she took it to HR. FML

Today, I got fired from my new waitress job after 2 shifts. They said I wasn't experienced enough to handle the fast pace. I thought I'd been doing well so I asked my friend who works there what really happened. Apparently not showing my boobs enough at a family place was grounds for dismissal. FML

Man, America sucks if you can lose your job for stuff like that. People shouldn't have the right to just fire you for the sake of it.

You can't generalize all of America cause of one dick head boss. That could happen anywhere if the boss is an ass hole.

Even in Right to work/At Will states, in this case, it IS wrongful termination. The OP just won a company. Yup, lawyer shop FAST, and roll in the money.

If i recall, employees are protected from sexual harassment by other employees, and customers. OP was sexually harrassed by the customer, then fired in retaliation for her correct response. This is a job for the EEOC.

Follow through with your complaint to the police! Any employer who does not support your legal right to a safe and harrassment free workplace needs to get a serious wake up call. That is certainly unfair dismissal!
