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

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, my boss fired me for being on Facebook at work. He did it via a wall post on Facebook saying, "ur fired." Six of my friends liked this. FML
Today, my boss fired me. Then later on Facebook, his public status was, "Finally fired the sumo wrestler!" 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 got fired from my job. My manager found Facebook pictures of me drinking underage at a party. He said he didn't want "that kind of image" associated with the business. It was his birthday party. He supplied the booze. FML
Today, my girlfriend came to my workplace to tell me she was breaking up with me. My boss, who was passing by, fired me for "chatting with friends" during work hours. FML
Today, I got a screenshot from my former supervisor's Instagram that stated, "Finally, I'm rid of these morons at my work." That's how I found out me and other workmates had been laid off. FML
Today, my boss left early, so I decided to take an extended break and run home. I found my wife in bed with my boss. I got fired for leaving work. FML
Today, my boss finally pronounced my name correctly. My name was then followed by the words, "You're fired." FML
Today, I got fired. Not because of anything I did, but because my best friend, who'd I'd gotten hired, stood up for herself when both the owner's wife and daughter became disrespectful professionally. She then quit and got a job with a competitor. They started looking at her LinkedIn. Two weeks later, I get canned. FML
Today, I learned to keep your posts private on social media. Your boss might find your Facebook status updates saying, “I hate this shitty 9-5, I want to be on a beach with a margarita.” I got a call from him saying, “You’re terminated from the shitty 9-5, so you don’t have to anymore. Enjoy the beach!” FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

So, he used that as an excuse, but hated you for other reasons. Way to suck at your job, OP.

And that's why he's the boss and you are not. If you're ever able to find a job again, try NOT wasting your company's time and just do your ******* work that they are paying you to do.

Get a copy of his Facebook comment and do not retaliate. Go find a lawyer, most have a free hour consultation. Tell the lawyer why you were fired and show the copy of the facebook post and when it was posted. Be honest about any disiplinary actions your received. Do you have copies of the companies computer/internet policies? His facebook post shows he was out to get you and that he posted while at work and fired you while posting at work. The lawyer may tell you if your case is worth suing or not. If your case is not worth suing for, ask for advise on what to say/do/write while filing for unemployment or if you should contact other workers rights agencies. Your case may not be worth a lawsuit or get your job back, but if you contact the right people, and show the copy of the facebook post while your boss was at work, you may be able to put the company/your ex bosses nuts in a vise. If you can't post on facebook, neither should your boss. What is your former companies computer/internet policies? Most companies have policies on what you can send or write on the computer and what types of web sites you can visit. Ten years ago I stated a job as an apprentice electrician. An apprenticeship is a training program. At the new company, the electricians, mechanics and the boss were at each others throats. After a month, I was fired because I was expected to know things that only a journeyman electrician knows. When I filed for unemployment, I told the unemployment office that I was hired to be an first year apprentice but was expected to have journeyman experience and about the work enviroment. Six weeks later, I was offered my job back. I turned them down because I started a new apprenticeship. Turns out that the company wanted someone with journeyman experience but wanted to pay only first year apprentice wages.

Take him down too. If he posted it from work, then save the web page. He called you a bitch, and also updated his status on facebook. Which was the reason you were fired. Go over his head, maybe you will get your job back or he will lose his. Worth a shot.

Screen cap that, then sue for sexual harassment.
