Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, it was my two-week anniversary of starting my new job, after over a year of unemployment due to Covid. It was great, I was getting on with people, and it actually felt like a career where my skillset was valued and I was appreciated by the management. I showed up to work this morning to find it had burned down. FML
Today, after months of job searching I got a job interview. I also later got a phone call from the manager informing me they burned down, and all current employees will be relocated or dismissed, and that my interview, scheduled for tomorrow, is postponed indefinitely. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. 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 finally started my first job. I also lost it, for being too "enthusiastic" and making my fellow employees look lazy. FML
Today, after finally getting a job offer after months of unemployment, I found out that the person who was going to hire me got fired. Which means I'm not getting the job. FML
Today, my boss told me to not burn the place down while she was outside. When she came back inside, I accidentally started a fire. FML
Today, after resigning from my current job, I was let go from the new job I hadn't even started yet. FML
Today, it was my first day of work at my new job. I got dressed and arrived early, only to find out that the store had closed due to a power outage. Then I found out that the person who'd hired me had totally forgotten about hiring me anyway. FML
Today, for the first time since I can remember, I went in to work feeling positive, and that I could make good things happen. At the end of the day, my employment was terminated. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I guess you can say that your first day on the job was lit (I'll see myself out now...) But in all seriousness OP, that pretty much sucks for you...

If that's not a sign, I don't know what is.

So...all turned out well? I work at a theatre, and was relocated with no issues. They could have just said "Nope lol you're on probation so we're not dealing with you," but was awesome about it

Oh, and the fire was caused by an employee who forgot that popcorn may catch fire if you leave it in the popper for too long
