Today, I got into a pretty heated argument with my boss. On my way out the door I told him he would be lucky if I came back to work. Unfortunately, I left the interior light on in my truck and it drained the battery. I had to go back in and ask for a jump. FML

Today, I left my lights on in my car, which I only realized at lunchtime, so I made sure to turn the lights off, and tried to start it. The battery was dead, so I called my dad to jump start it before I got back from my game. I later came back from the game and the lights were on. He'd left the lights on after jump starting it. FML

Today, I arrived twenty minutes early for my opening shift at work, so I decided to turn on the radio and wait in my nice warm car. I woke up two hours later with twelve missed calls from my boss and a dead car battery. FML

Today, I was running late for work. I was trying to find my car keys, then realized I'd left them in my boyfriend's car. My phone charger was locked in my car, and my phone was dead. I couldn’t get hold of my boss and explain what had happened. I’m fired, aren’t I? FML

Today, I got pissed and tried to storm out of work, only to get outside and realize I couldn't because I'd let my coworker borrow my car for lunch. FML

Today, I got into my car and it wouldn't start. I noticed I had left the lights on and assumed the battery was dead. Then, I couldn't get my key out of the ignition. So, I called AAA only to have the guy put my car in park and start the engine. FML

Today, my car died after I got off work at 1am. All of my coworkers had already left and nobody could come out to jump my car. I had to walk the 3 miles home in a torrential downpour. FML

Today, my girlfriend decided it would be cute to leave a love letter in my car while I was at work. She left my lights on. I got a dead battery. FML

Today, somebody stopped by the front desk at the hotel I work at to report a vehicle had its headlights on. I wrote down the info, including the plate. Hours later, after my shift was over, I finally realized that it was MY vehicle. The battery was dead. FML

You must be one helluva amazing employee to not be fired.

Not every company is run like that. Jobs where you can get fired for doing something small and stupid are just too common.

Something small and stupid, no...But something very unprofessional, like hinting at quitting during an argument, yes.

I would love to see the look on your face when your boss tells you to f**k off.

Why would HE be lucky if YOU came back to work? -.- you'll have a harder time finding a new job than he will finding your replacement.

I agree. I've learned that even the best of employees are easily replaceable. Especially now a days when there are so many people that can fill in most jobs at a moment's notice.

After making a statement like that, there's about a dozen other options I'd have exhausted before crawling back inside to my boss.

Exactly. Isn't there someone op could call, anything, other than going back in there? Not something I would have done.

Go back in the office. Say "I'm so sorry about that bs before, do you have something to help jump my truck?" Once the truck is jumped, take the jumper cables, throw them on the ground in anger, and then say "NOW I will never be back! You douche!!" Sure, you will look like even more of an ass, but you still get to leave in anger saying you will never be back...
