Today, I got fired from my childcare job of five years because the other staff weren't as popular with the kids, so they accused me of being "creepy" because the kids all wanted to play a game with me instead of them. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I was fired because a patron complained that she didn't like the way I kept staring at her kids. I was a lifeguard. FML
Today, I was fired from the babysitting job I've had for 2 years. I thought maybe the mother had found out that I sometimes let her kids stay up late and have extra sweets. The real reason, as she told me, was that she didn't want her kids loving anyone more than they love her. FML
Today, I got fired from a great babysitting job because the little girl said I was boring. 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, I was fired from my job. Why? Because my boss has been dating my newly divorced mother, and he didn't want family get-togethers to be "awkward." FML
Today, I got fired from my job because I "look too grumpy." FML
Today, I was working at a local restaurant when another server's table called me over to ask if I've "ever killed anybody". They informed me I looked like a serial killer. I informed them, of course, that I have never killed anybody. Another customer claimed I scared her child. I was fired. FML
Today, I got fired from my job where you build teddy bears. I got fired not because I did anything wrong, just because they don't like my personality. I'd never worked with my boss, and that means all the employees that work there had a meeting about me, and all confirmed they don't like me. 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, I was fired from my job. The reason? My boss didn't feel comfortable paying his son's girlfriend. FML

Maybe they should look into why the kids don't like the other staff members....

Super surprised they haven't charged my old art teacher with anything like this. All of the teachers hate her because shes the favourite among students

Don't let their jealousy get to you. That's an awesome gift to have and if it isn't recognized. That place just lost a great personality.

the worst part about this is that getting another child care job just got harder for OP cause they wont have a good reference for the last 5 years

They just made the kids hate them more, and now they're going to have to deal with moody kids for the next 2 or 3 months. As to you, look into wrongful termination, defamation of character, and slander laws, and consider getting a lawyer and pressing charges against your coworkers for accusing you of being a child molester. Which is a very serious charge for them to point at you, especially if it really is out of petty jealousy. The fact they are this jealous over the kids preferring you actually sets off warning bells IMHO.

I keep noticing how easy it seems to be to get fired for no good reason in the USA. Don't you have any employee rights over there?
