Today, I was driving to work and I got a text from my girlfriend. She said she was breaking up with me. I was a little heartbroken, but I had to get on with my day. I got to work and my boss fired me. Turns out, my boss and girlfriend have been having an affair and she told him to fire me. FML

Today, I was fired from a managerial position I've held for two years due to "inappropriate relations with a subordinate": I was dating a coworker. My girlfriend then broke up with me four hours later. Because I no longer had a job. I hired her. FML

Unexpected

Today, I quit my job that my girlfriend and I worked together at. Fellow employees are not allowed to date one another and I said it would be ok if I was the one to leave. When I got home to her and told her that I quit, she decided to break up with me. I now have no job and no girlfriend. FML

Today, my boyfriend was fired. After breaking the news, he also broke up with me. Apparently, his boss had a creepy crush on me and would give my boyfriend bonuses for bringing me to company events and, occasionally, out on the boss's personal boat. Looks like I am no longer useful. FML

Today, my girlfriend left me for her boss. The same boss who, two weeks ago, caused her to come to me crying because he was sexually harassing her at work. When I told her I'd intervene, she told me she'd handle it. I guess she certainly did. FML

Today, my girlfriend of 3 years threatened to break up with me because when she came by my work, she saw me talking to another girl. The girl was a trainee. I'm the boss of the company, so it's my responsibility to train new people. FML

Geez, is there any way you could explain it to your boss? I hate when people jump into conclusions like that. And what the f is wrong with your girlfriend? I understand there's never a good time to break up, but during work?? Looks to me like she's scared of what your reaction would be so she did it in the one place where you're supposed to not show your emotions. Breaking up should be a private event between two people. Do it in a private place, for Pete's sake.. Now that I'm done with my rant, Stay strong OP!

Nah, we only just discovered the element of fire and written language last week. Maybe next month we'll get around to basic workplace stuff.

Go get a way better job now and she will try to get you back. And then you can say no and reject her AND have more money!

I don't know what kind of work you do, OP, but if it's retail, your (ex) girlfriend could've easily been a customer as well. Your (ex) boss is a jackass.
