Today, after working at my job for approximately one year and receiving multiple awards, I mentioned to my boss that I was thinking of looking for another job in hopes that he would give me a raise or promote me. I got fired two days later. FML

YDI, totally. It looks like your boss was taking good care of you and you got greedy. Good people get good things

Today, I got stuck in a group project with three other people who spent the whole period trying to figure out how old the teacher was. Good news: They came to the conclusion that he must be around 35-40 years old. Bad news: we are gonna have a hard time finishing this project if they don't pull their weight. FML
