Today, I was fired on my second day of work after a year and a half of unemployment. Apparently, my "tendency to solve problems instead of just accepting them made the other workers uneasy". FML

Today, after nearly eight months of unemployment, I started a great new job. After seven and a half hours of work, my new boss comes up to tell me what a great job I was doing, but that he somehow forgot to clear the new hire with the company owner, so I'm fired. Hello, unemployment... again. FML

Today, I was let go at work. About 2 years ago, we had hired an eager-to-learn "assistant" for me. When they canned me, they let me know that I should've trained him faster so I could've been fired sooner. FML

So, in other words, you got fired because you were too good at your job.

That's what's messed up now: people have a terrible work ethic.

I never had a good job experience. And I've worked at over 10 different jobs. So, I just started my own business and now I'm my own boss. Don't have to worry about crazy bosses anymore.
