Today, I had a meeting with the CEO about a promising job with good pay and benefits. Upon meeting, we immediately recognized each other. He was someone I used to make fun of in school all the time. He responded by refusing to interview me and had security throw me out by force. Karma bites. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, the CEO of my company wanted to meet with me. I was excited until I found out she just wanted to bitch me out and personally fire me. Later on, I found out my boss had totally shafted me and blamed the failure of a big project on me instead of admitting it was all his fault. FML
Today, I went in for an interview at my dream job. When I walked in, I got a dirty look from the front desk secretary. Turns out, the guy interviewing me was from a dating website I'm on. I'd rejected him and told him to get a life. FML
Today, I was at a big meeting at work. The CEO was reaming the hell out of us for our recent poor profits, when I accidentally let rip a vile fart. I was then subjected to a 10 minute tirade of abuse for "trying to be a funny man", and told that whatever small chance I had for a promotion is now gone. FML
Today, at work, I accidentally walked into a meeting at which the whole company was there but me. The meeting was about how they could legally fire me while paying as little severance as possible. I'm the CEO and the founder of the company. FML
Today, I walked out of a job interview feeling confident because I'd really hit it off with the interviewer. He called me an hour later to tell me that I didn't get the job, since he was afraid we'd "get along too well and never get any work done." FML
Today, during work hours, I took time off and discreetly went for an interview for a prospective job at our rival company. As soon as I reached the place, I bumped into my current boss. FML
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 went to see a house for rent. The owner ended up being a person whom I denied renting to a long time ago, because I thought she was sketchy looking. Apparently she’s the CEO of a company now. She definitely recognized me and kicked me off the premises. FML
Today, my boss found out I had applied for a much better paying job. He told me I'd do a better job and make more money there. Then he fired me. FML
Today, while waiting for an interview at the career that I've been spending months tailoring my résumé for, I was thrown up on by my only competitor. Guess who got the job. FML

While I was bullied to some extent in school, (though not as much as some people) I would be willing to give my bullies a chance. This is because I have since become friendly with them all, save for two, at some point since the bullying. Out of those remaining two; one I wouldn't have a clue what she looks like now (she bullied me in preschool) and the other, despite behaving like a douche, has a decent brain on her and may actually be an asset to the team. However I believe that the CEO made the right decision in this case. If the CEO can still remember him enough to recognize him instantly after a number of years (it probably has been a while if the victim is now a CEO), then the bullying was probably bad enough to warrant instant dismissal. While bullies themselves often have psychiatric issues of their own, they do not have the right to make others lives miserable. There are two different types of bullying (OK, there are several types, but two main types): 1. Random bullying: This is the sort of thing that happens maybe once or twice on the spur of the moment and isn't really expanded upon. Most of us at some point in our lives have been the victims of this type. Most of us have also, intentionally or not, committed this type at some stage or another. I don't doubt that I have, thus would not hold this against anyone. (well, not long-term - they would be replaced by the next person who randomly pissed me off) 2. Prolonged bullying: This kind of bullying is the reason a lot of young people commit suicide as they can't bear to face another day of it. In such cases the bully will always target the victim at any opportunity, causing physical pain, emotional pain (frequently both) and humiliation. This is clearly the type that the OP was inflicting on the CEO. This kind of bullying I have not experienced, but I can understand why the CEO would not wish to associate himself with the OP again. (OK, the girl in preschool was like this, but as I say I haven't a clue what she looked like then, lettalone now, plus if she bullied me as her boss, she would be fired on the spot (or sued, depending on how sadistic I felt)) The OP was clearly behaving like an ass and thus does not deserve to hold down a job. OK, the OP made some mistakes, but if the CEO can still remember him vividly after all this time, the OP definitely failed to correct these mistakes, despite having numerous chances to stop being an asshole. My point is You Deserve It.

YDI 100%! I was bullied constantly in high school and middle school, so badly that I contemplated suicide. If you think I will ever completely recover from that, you're retarded. If you say bullying isn't mentally and physically harmful, then you have never been bullied badly. I stopped eating, had constant tension headaches, pretended I was sick to miss school, and my grades dropped from all "A"'s to low "C"'s. If I ever run into the people who tormented me that badly, I wouldn't just have you kicked out of the building. I would have decked 'em in the face.

This is a lesson that life gives you. Treat people how you want to be treated because you may need them later in life. YDI big time. Hope you learned.
