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

Unless you work somewhere that you have a contract for your job, the best you can do is file unemployment. A company can fire you because they decide they don't like the shirt you're wearing one day, there's nothing mandating that they keep you employed.

That is horrible!! I used to be thinking about asking for a transfer over to your neck of the woods with my company, but the more I have looked into it, the more I have gone off it. Simply because IF something would happen, I'd stand there unprotected. Can't believe she could just fire you like that. What a bitch for not owning up to her own mistake.

First of all, the majority of people who say "Americans are sue-crazy" are probably the same people who think CNN and MSNBC are perfectly objective, and that there is no bias in the news. On average, out of 10,000 possible civil suits, only 3 will go to court. Three. That said, there is no "wrongful termination" suit here. Right to work states killed that suit. You have no recourse except for to file for unemployment, which is paid for by your ex-employer. Aside from the federally protected issues (race, religion, etc), you're screwed.

your idiot boss just wants to cover up for her own mistake. you could just report it.

if in her written termination statement it says it was due to the absence of the meeting then you have grounds for a lawsuit. if not then you can still try and get witnesses if at all possible.
