Today, I was fired for not attending a mandatory meeting. I confronted my boss and told her I never heard anything about it, she told me that daily reminders had been sent out via email for weeks. She then discovered that she failed to enter my email address in the system. I was still fired. FML

Today, I was fired from a job I didn't have. The manager in charge of calling me to tell me if I got the job never called, and never called me back when I left messages. The only time he called me was to fire me for not coming to orientation, which, by the way, he never called to tell me about. FML
Today, I was fired for the second time in as many days. I received a letter notifying me that I would no longer be working for the company, effective immediately. When I did not attend work the next day, I received a phone call firing me for not turning up. FML
Today, my boss fired me because I corrected him after he misspoke during a meeting. FML
Today, while on vacation, I got fired for not working a shift I wasn't scheduled for. Even after texting my boss a copy of my vacation approval letter, she still fired me. FML
Today, my boss tried to fire me for not emailing him a screenshot to prove my email wasn't working. FML
Today, I was suspended from my job for missing a team meeting that was planned during my lunch time. Needless to say, nobody had told me. FML
Today, my boss called me and asked why I haven't been showing up to work. I didn't show up because he fired me last week over the phone. Then he fired me again for not showing up to work. FML
Today, I was fired for not completing the required computer training, which no one told me about. I was told that it's my responsibility to check it every week. It would have been nice if a single one of my supervisors had given me any indication whatsoever that this was the case. FML
Today, my boss threw me out of her office during a conference call for daring to correct her. The client fired the company because she subsequently got all the information on the call wrong, and plainly had no idea what was going on. From all the screaming, this is now all my fault. FML
Today, I won employee of the month. I was then fired for being late. FML

THANK YOU. Seriously, you didn't wonder where everyone else was going when they all stood up and walked to the meeting? Do you have no friends in the office?

Litigation is the American way. In America you are almost always forced to go this route because most businesses don't take complaints seriously unless you threaten legal action.

That really sucks. And here I was upset that I didn't get the emails about the team building event today (sent to everyone BUT me).

You mean you still got fired for the same thing or did they decide to use some other lame excuse instead? Employers are not required to give you a good reason. There's no reason for them not to fabricate a reason after the fact either (even if it's illegal). I'd be willing to bet they can get better lawyers than a jobless person as well. In other words, unless you have some way to explicitly prove it, you're screwed. FYL

... unless you can explicitly prove otherwise, of course. :> (Tried to add that before the timer expired, but it thought I was double-posting. Now I was forced to double-post. Whacked links....)

That is enough for you to sue...

To all those suggesting this person sue, not enough information is given to definitively determine if the person has a meritorious cause of action for wrongful action, however, presuming this person was working in Texas, she likely does not have a cause of action for wrongful termination. Many states are "employee at will" states meaning that the employee or employer can terminate the employment relationship at any time for any reason (except for an illegal reason such as race, ethnicity, gender, etc.). In these states, if the employee is an employee at will then no cause need be given to terminate the employee, and depending on the state's laws, even if a wrong cause is given, such as if the employee is accused of a theft that is later discovered to have been committed by a third party, the employee may still not have a cause of action for wrongful termination. To determine if the person has a cause of action we would need to know whether the person had a contract with the employer that would have modified the employee at will status, and if so, what terms for termination are spelled out in that contract. Without this information no final answer can be given as to the issue of a meritorious wrongful termination suit. P.S. By the way, I'm a lawyer ;)
