Today, at work, I stepped out for a few minutes to use the bathroom. Shortly after returning, I found out the hard way that one of my coworkers had used my computer to send a profanity-filled email to our boss, calling him an asshole and telling him to go fuck himself. I'm now jobless. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I walked into work, a day after losing my shit with our systems admin, due to her taking ages to enable my new email account. I was soon bitched out, warned, and suspended over several lewd emails having been sent overnight from my account to various female co-workers. FML
Today, I discovered that my boss listens to the things we say about him on the audio-enabled cameras at our work. I'm thus currently jobless. FML
Today, I fell asleep while on the toilet at work. When I woke up, I tried to quietly sneak back to my desk, only to be caught by my boss. He immediately sent me packing and gave his "best wishes" for me in the unemployment line. FML
Today, my boss fired me by locking me out of my workplace after I went out to throw out the trash. FML
Today, I was at work when a co-worker decided it would be funny to email me from my boss's computer to tell me I had been laid off. It wasn't funny when I was fired for real after "skipping work without giving notice." FML
Today, my boss fired me for "fooling around" on my phone. I was looking for supplies for a surprise party we are throwing him for his birthday, and I didn't want to do it on my work computer because he has access to our history. Also, this happened during my lunch break. FML
Today, I told my supervisor how awful my coworker was at her job. I then got fired. FML
Today, one of my co-workers was fired after my manager discovered him pissing in the office coffee pot. I had three cups before I found out what had happened. FML
Today, I guess I accidentally left Facebook open on my work computer while I went to the bathroom, because my boss updated my status to "Unemployed." FML
Today, I found out that my coworker shared a laugh with the boss about setting the office desk on fire (which he actually did), while ten minutes later I was threatened with being fired because I made paper snowflakes and hung a few of them next to the computer. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

You can actually prove that you did not send that if you can find yourself on a building camera away from the computer at the time

Well you totally deserve it for taking a break at work!!! How dare you! *sarcasm*

The majority here is a smart group. *sarcasm- isn't usually needed.

^^^ a lot of people are stupid on picking up on sarcasm though. Careful there. Haha.

Thank you for your input, but as many of these that I have read yes it was needed

You should explain to the boss that you didn't write the email because you were spanking the monkey in the men's room on company time. At least you'll be fired for the right reason.

Sometimes you try too hard. This is that sometime.

I'd rather someone try to hard compared to the "lol" "that sucks" comments. Personally.

#22 lol, tru dat. How about that comment?

shut up 17. perdix has more credibility than u.. besides he just makes jokes. its funny and lightens the mood of the fmls.

That is a much better reason to getting fired. Op you would think a simple explanation would be enough, perhaps starting with the truth. It's really not fair besides that it should be your co-worker getting fired not you, that's a bunch of b.s. Hopefully it works out if not you need to be the crap out the one who got you into this mess in the first place!

CTRL+ALT+DELETE before you leave your seat.

Don't forget to push ENTER after, though, or it'll time out haha. I see people do this all the time at my work.

Man that sounds awful Maybe try getting some co-workers to verify that you didn't send that email. Try explaining to your boss, after he cools down, that it wasn't you. Or you could just kick the co-worker's ass

Wow, your coworker seems like an ass

Wow that's not cool

This is when passwords come in handy (stops all attempts at sabotage). At least they didn't e-mail him the links to what you were watching. ;)

Future reference, OP... if you're on a windows, windows button and L to lock your computer. As another person commented, it can definitely be proven that it wasn't you. Any cameras that might have seen you during that timeframe?
ManicGypsy 22
YDI for not locking your computer or at very least your email before leaving the computer. An unlocked computer begs for a troll to mess with it.
Treveyon56 14
24 not sure if you are a troll of being sarcastic but if you're serious then you are complete idiot. OP didn't deserve this for thinking that his work computer would be safe.
Waredo_Dyrge 11
So because OP's coworker is a cocksucking piece of shit that deserves to die a slow painful death, it's OP's fault? Right.
CharresBarkrey 16
And what if OP is a horrible person and terrible to work with? We only get one side of this, everyone seems to assume that there's no possible way OP did deserve it. I doubt their coworkers would do this completely unprovoked.
Treveyon56 14
78 I'm not saying it isn't possible OP is a bad coworker. I was saying how 24's logic is flawed. And you'll be surprised how many coworkers would do something like this for no reason.
asparagus12 21
I agree. That is the first thing you learn in any new employee orientation. Always log off when you leave your desk and never share your password. A total YDI!

I can sort of see what you mean, but one would not expect immature troll hacking in the workplace where there should be adults with impulse control.
