Today, my lazy manager, who blatantly spreads vicious rumors about employees, one which has ruined a marriage, has started targeting me because her lazy daughter was legally fired. Now I'm known around the office as "the whore who slept her way up the corporate ladder." FML

Today, my lazy bastard of a co-worker punched me straight in the jaw because he didn't get the promotion I did. Being his new manager, I fired him. A few hours later, I was fired for "abusing" my power. FML

Mommy's boy

Today, my mother, who insists on sticking her nose into every aspect of my life, found out I'm only "middle management" and called my boss to criticize her for undervaluing me, demanding I be promoted immediately. I'm now the laughing stock of my office. FML

Today, my boss threatened to write me up, after I made a slightly rude joke about a coworker everyone hates. A while later, a colleague told me the same joke. Turns out my boss had gone around telling it to everyone else and taking all the credit. FML

Today, my extremely lazy colleague received a promotion with benefits, while I was fired for "not being a team-player". I had stayed quiet about her constant negative behaviour because my supervisor said we needed to "have each other's backs". While I was protecting hers, she put a knife in mine. FML

Rumor mill

Today, I found out that a new coworker was spreading false rumours about me. I confronted her. and she basically ran to management and said I intimidated her even though other colleagues discredited her claims. She now continues spreading the rumours with her fake intimidation charges on top of it all. FML

Black balled

Today, my wife somehow found out that my "surprise bonus" from earlier this year was actually hush money from my boss to keep quiet about her affair. Rather than let a good thing alone, she threw a fit and called my boss's husband. Now I'm jobless, and my boss has sworn I'll never work in my industry again. FML

Today, I found out why my District Manager won't promote me to store manager; his wife thinks he's having an affair with me. If he promotes me, she will take that as evidence of the affair, and then will threaten to divorce him. FML

Today, my spineless shitwhip of a boss made me go fire a notoriously abusive employee. I had to act like firing him was my decision, even though I'm the secretary. Now I get to live in constant fear that the guy was serious when he threatened to find out where I live and kill me. FML

Today, I overheard my boss talking about me on the phone. Turns out he was drunk off his ass when he gave the go-ahead to hire me, and he's now searching for any excuse to legally fire me. FML

Well, she certainly sounds like a charming woman. "Horrible Bosses" came to mind.

My thoughts exactly! I replied to number 2 saying pretty much the same thing.

Karma will bite your boss in the ass sooner or later. Just give it some time. If it doesn't come soon enough, then take matters into your own hands.

Here in Australia you can call Fair Work Australia and your boss would get in deep shit and lose her job. If you have anything like that in Canada I highly suggest taking action. I would NOT be putting up with that crap. Think of the lives she could ruin if she isn't stopped.

Time to smack a bitch... Seriously. It's worth getting fired for if you leave a nice mark on that crazy bitch's face. That's major bullshit.

That's extremely unprofessional. Your boss obviously needs to learn proper work etiquette. Fyl OP. Hopefully they learn some manners before someone falcon punches some into them.

A very simple fix to that and early retirement for you is to sue for public slander

I say work your way up that ladder until you can fire her. She clearly don't deserve that job or any job at all. I hope everyone knows how much she lies.
