Today, I got demoted from my manager's position, only to be replaced by a 21 year-old who has never worked in retail in her life. I now have to spend the next month teaching her my job so they can fire me. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, after working at the same place for 3 years, I found out that they are not only cutting my hours but now I have to take orders from some girl I trained because she was promoted over me. FML
Today, I was demoted at work to a much harder and more time-consuming position because, I quote, "You have more experience." My boss is now telling the others I volunteered to be moved to the lower position. FML
Today, it's my first day as the boss, after waiting months for this promotion. Today is also the day my replacement, who I trained for three months, quit. Now I've got two jobs for the price of one. FML
Today, I was fired from the job I've had for 15 years. My boss recently hired his daughter as a senior manager and she made several cuts because, as she put it, the sales team was "too old and lame". I didn't know being a young bitch was a requirement to work at a furniture warehouse. FML
Today, a month after getting a big promotion, I found out that I'm stuck with my old job. No one wants to take my old position, so they are vacating my new one and will post it, because, "This one is more desirable, and your's is shit." FML
Today, it was my first day as a promoted manager. I got fired for being late. FML
Today, after a month at my new job, my boss fired me because I didn't have enough experience. She hired me with full knowledge of this fact. FML
Today, thanks to downsizing and corporate restructuring, I was "promoted" to the entry level position I had 10 years ago. FML
Today, I got fired from my dream job. I found out today that the girl who trained me lied and taught me how to do things wrong, so that when she got back from maternity leave, she could get me fired and take her job back. My new coworkers were in on her plan from the beginning. FML
Today, the only colleague I dislike was promoted to be my manager. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I say quit you don't need to take that shit it doesn't sound right to me. Tell your asshole boss where to go. Why would you stay at that job when you can have the last laugh.

I say make them fire you so you can collect unemployment. As tempting as it is to sandbag your replacement, that's too easy & too obvious. Instead, sabotage your store's inventory. You'll be long gone & she's going to be stuck with bad inventory results. **** up any paperwork that wont be discovered for at least a month. Revenge is fun!!

just steal the loot and blame it on her if they still fire you then you have money to last you until you find another job : ) problem solved.

Conduct yourself with grace during the last month. Do your best to train the new manager and do nothing to sabatoge her or the business. You never know who might be watching how you conduct yourself and what connections they may have. More than one former employee has found his/her next job through a co-worker's recommendation. It's highly unlikely you'll ever regret behaving with "grace under fire" but very likely you'll eventually regret behaving vengefully, criminally, or childishly.

I'm guessing you're getting fired because you suck at your job, so why would they want you to teach her how to do the job?

my guess is she sucked to get the job. gl at your next place of employment might want to practice with some meridian balls.
