Today, I got my new work schedule. I really need the hours. The boss says he can't give me more because the economy is bad. However, he did find enough hours to hire his son last week. This week? Most of my hours were erased and given to the new employee; his daughter. FML

Today, I once again got less than 20 hours of work for the entire week. My boss's solution? Double the staff. FML

Today, I got notice that I didn't get the new position I applied for at work. After two interviews, pay negotiation and paperwork, as well as years of giving this place all my time, I found out my boss gave it to his friend's daughter, who has no experience or credentials needed for the position.

Today, my boss told me I have to start work 4 hours early tomorrow, because that my coworker, who happens to be his son, will not be coming in because he's "too tired". I work 10 hours a day, 6 days a week without complaining. His son works two 4-hour shifts a week. FML

Today my boss informed us that there were no more single shifts we were all working doubles until further notice. Also there’s a way for us to “earn” a half day but we have to out sell everyone else in the office to get it. So being new I haven’t had time off in two weeks... FML

Today, I was fired from my job for "lack of work". What that means is that my boss hired his good-for-nothing lazy son, who then got too big of a mortgage, and he had to let me go to pay him a higher salary. FML

Today, I found out via a voicemail from my boss that my hours are being cut. He said, "They said I can't fire you, so you'll only be getting 20 hours a week. Starting today." Who'd they give my other 20 hours to? The one person that calls off sick almost daily and is never on time. FML

Today, my boss got mad at me because I told her that I wouldn't be able to work two days out of the week, due to college classes. She then cut back my hours so much that I now only work one day a week. I got the job in the first place to pay for my college classes. FML

Today, I went in to work to check my new schedule for the week. I searched up and down and didn't see my name listed. After talking to my manager, he decided it would be easier to "release" me than remake a new schedule. FML

Today, I found out that a coworker and I may get laid off soon, all because my boss's niece told him she can do both our jobs all by herself, and for less money. FML

in all seriousness, I'd call the ACLU and file a complaint. if that doesn't work, take a big steaming shit on his desk.

The ACLU protects constitutional rights. Nothing in the constitution says that the worker is entitled to the number of hours she wants to work or that the boss can't hire whomever he wants to hire. Department of Labor would be the way to go, but I doubt OP would have much of a case.

I cannot actually beleive there are people like 17 and 18 who have no idea what solidarity means. Look, I'm French, and there's an asshole on TV, a guy nammed Jacques Séguéla who is a communication consultant for our (equaly assholy) president. This guy actually said on TV that if, at 50 you do not own a Rolex, you're a looser. Because of stupidity like that, most people are supporting the system that only benefits for a few : the very rich, and the very lucky who get rich in their life time "on their own" (right school at the right time, right relations...). Those lucky (Bill Gates, Steve Jobbs, any football player, Eminem...) are shown as example "the system works ! it's just that you do not want it enough", but we all need to understand that for one Eminem, there were probably more than 500 000 wannabe singers. If you, "the people", are counting on that luck, you better begin to try out for the Lotto.
