Today, at work, I was fired from my job for being too "forward" to my boss. All I did was get him coffee and a biscuit from McDonald's to celebrate his 15-year anniversary working there. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was getting lunch at a fast food restaurant. My boss was in front of me, and in order to get on his good side I offered to pay. Instead, I got fired because I guess my boss assumed I was making fun of his salary, which I knew nothing about. FML
Today, I got fired from the job I'd had for eleven years for going onto Facebook while on the clock. When I got home, I saw that my boss had updated his status, from work, to "Finally fired that bitch." FML
Today, I was let go without warning at work. Why? Because my boss saw some comments I'd posted. Nothing I'd said was offensive or controversial, but he said he didn't care, because he didn't agree with it and didn't want me to "smear" the company name. I represent the company? I just serve coffee. 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 was fired without warning from my job because I was not consulting my boss about things like washing dishes and throwing away garbage. Basically, I was fired for being too good at my job. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I "didn't get the right kind of coffee beans." FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML
Today, I was fired for being a very happy and perky employee. According to my boss, it freaks both the customers and my co-workers out. FML
Today, on my first day of work, I got fired after 45 minutes. FML
Today, it's my birthday and I had to work. My boss wished me a happy birthday, and then told me I was fired. FML

that's not a valid reason for him to fire you.try and talk to someone higher up.

Talk to headquarters and tell them your situation. You shouldn't be fired for that! Good luck op

I'd love for some one to show me this sort of kindness at work. I'm sorry he did not see it as such. Go to some one higher up OP I'm sure this is an invalid reason to fire some one. I hope it works out for you.

We dont need to resort to that... If you want to hurt me just cut off my nipples, fry them till golden perfection, then eat them sunny side up and lightly salted

That was a pretty skanky move, OP. I wait till at least the third date before buying either coffee /or/ a biscuit. The first date is for light eye contact, and the second is for conversation using words beginning with letters from the first half of the alphabet. Considering you two weren't even dating, walking with two arms length between you is pretty risqué.

We actually are, you know...

No, no, no. Every time somebody is fired for a stupid reason, we move back a century. It's fun, and the kids love it.

It's McDonald's...pretty sure if you've worked there for 15 years you survive on paint chips and regret :p

The pronoun at the end of the last sentence is misleading. "There" refers to the company they work at, not the McDonalds.
