Today, I got to work to find out I won't be getting paid for three hours from a previous day. Why? The new guy made a mistake on the time sheet. Being that he's new, he is being given the benefit of the doubt. FML

This doesn't make sense. If he's new, it should be the other way around. Meaning he SHOULDN'T have the benefit of the doubt from your boss. Either you're bullshitting, or you need to quit because your higher ups have no idea how to run a fair business.

You can bet he wouldn't get that benefit if he had logged you 3 extra hours instead!

Not bullshitting. The higher ups just don't know how to run a business.

That's just terrible! Go ahead and document your work hours with statements from others that were working with you, or time-stamped photos or work emails that you may have sent during your shift. Even if you are unable to appeal the shorting of hours, you have a file for the future, if this becomes a pattern.

I'm pretty sure that is illegal...

Very. But the owner is getting away with it. He's also had the labor board called on him several times for trying to short pay and not paying proper overtime.

Today, I found out my dentist is retiring. This wouldn't be that big of a deal except that if we want to transfer our dental records to a new dentist we have to do it before he retires and there's a $30 processing fee per person. Three of us use that dentist. FML

Today, I asked a girl at work out, who'd claimed she was single. Not ten minutes later, our boss fired me. Turns out that girl is actually his side chick he cheats on his wife with, even though she’s 19 and he’s 48. Not illegal, just scummy as hell, and he fired me out of jealousy. FML

Today, my mom sent me beautiful candlesticks along with some half burned candles. I thanked her. She told me the candlesticks were a wedding gift to my grandmother 85 years ago. Then she said the candles were used at my grandma's wedding. I had already lit them. FML

Today, I found out at a routine check-up that I may have asthma. How it went unnoticed until now, I do not know. I guess the world just needed to come up with a new way to make me miserable. FML

Today, I took my parking permit off my car to debate a ticket that I got for not having my permit displayed. Twenty minutes later, when I got back to my car, I had another ticket on my window for not having my parking permit displayed because I was using it to disprove the first ticket. FML

Today, I video-chatted with my mom and showed her my new, very short haircut. My dad walked in, took one look at me and said, "I can only attribute this to penis envy," and walked out again. FML

Today, while cleaning my car, I found my mother's underwear in the backseat. She'd borrowed my car last weekend because hers had been in the shop and she'd been called in to work. I see she put in for overtime. FML
